We have investigated the origin of the huge magnetocaloric effect in a manganite system with ferro–antiferromagnetic phase mixture at low temperatures. We carried out magnetic measurements in fields up to 100 kOe in order to show that both a high hysteretic behavior and a metamagnetic transition in the antiferromagnet…
Magnetoelectric composites were created through incorporating dispersed CoFe2O4 ferromagnetic grains into a Sr0.5Ba0.5Nb2O6 relaxor ferroelectric matrix. The two phases are chemically compatible and coexist in the dense, sintered composites. Unlike other relaxors, the Sr0.5Ba0.5Nb2O6-containing composites can be elect…
Epitaxial Pb(Zr0.52Ti0.48)O3 (PZT) thin-film capacitors with La0.7Sr0.3MnO3 (LSMO) electrodes have been grown on (LaAlO3)0.3(SrAl0.5Ta0.5O3)0.7 (001) substrates by pulsed-laser deposition. The process-induced imprint behavior in the ferroelectric capacitors was examined by in situ and ex situ annealing at various cond…
The effects of B2O3 vapor doping on the dielectric properties of barium titanate ceramics were studied. After the doping, the Curie point of BaTiO3 ceramics was increased from 128 °C to 130 °C and the maximum dielectric constant was considerably increased. X-ray diffraction showed that both the grain lattice parameter…
We present a Raman spectroscopy study of the lattice-dynamical properties of the BaxSr1−xTiO3 thin films with x=0.05, 0.1, 0.2, 0.35, and 0.5 in the temperature range of 5–300K. Soft phonon modes were observed, and the temperature dependence of their frequencies and Raman intensities were investigated. The Raman spect…
Molecular-dynamics simulations of hydrocarbon beam injections into a poly (1,4-phenylene) substrate surface are carried out with the use of classical potential functions for covalent bonds of carbon and hydrogen atoms. Van der Waals interactions among carbon atoms are also taken into account. In the low injection ener…
The structural and electronic properties of La2Zr2O7 and La2Hf2O7 pyrochlore compounds were investigated using the first principles full-potential linearized augmented plane wave method within the density functional theory. In this approach, the generalized gradient approximation was used for the exchange-correlation…
The reduction of Cu2O islands grown on Cu(100) surfaces through vacuum annealing was visualized by an in situ ultrahigh vacuum transmission electron microscope. The shrinkage of the island followed a linear decay behavior. The complete reduction of the oxide islands leads to the formation of nanoindentations on the Cu…
Abstract Summary: The isolation and structural characterization of a methylaluminium(bisphenoxide)‐ ε ‐caprolactone complex is reported. While the three‐coordinate methylaluminium complex was found not to catalyze the polymerization of ε ‐caprolactone, its oxygenation led to the formation of an aluminium methoxide com…
Abstract The effects of chemical structure and synthesis method on the photodegradation behavior of polypropylene (PP) were investigated in injection‐molded samples exposed to ultraviolet radiation (UV) at 60°C. For this purpose, three PP samples with different chemical structures were chosen: two homopolymerized PP s…
The structural, magnetic, and transport properties are investigated for full-Heusler alloy Co2(Cr1−xFex)Al (CCFA) thin films sputtered on thermally oxidized Si substrates at room temperature (RT). X-ray diffraction reveals that the films possess the B2 structure for x=0, decrease the atomic site ordering by substituti…
Abstract Dendrimers based on melamine have been covalently attached to silica gel with convergent and divergent approaches. These approaches yield different products. Each step of the synthesis can be monitored with Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, thermal gravimetric analysis, and X‐ray photoelectron spectros…
Results of a method is presented for synthesizing ZnS:Mn nanoparticles capped in situ by ZnO. Analysis of Raman spectra and x-ray photoelectron spectra results have reinforced claim of the formation of ZnO capping layer on the surface of ZnS:Mn nanoparticles. Raman spectra results also showed presence of stress at an…
Abstract The use of nanocomposites in textile applications, and in particular of polyurethane (PU) coatings reinforced by various additives [clay and polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (POSS)], has grown in recent years. Some interesting results have been obtained, especially with Cloisite 30B (a montmorillonite org…
Microstructure and magnetic properties of melt-spun Fe80−xPtxB20 (x=20,22,24) alloy ribbons have been investigated. A homogeneous nanoscale mixed structure with amorphous and fcc γ-FePt phases was formed in the melt-spun ribbons. The average sizes of the amorphous and fcc γ-FePt phases are about 5nm, and the enrichmen…
A physical model and a simulation algorithm are used to predict an electromigration-(EM-) induced void nucleation and growth in dual-inlaid copper interconnect. Incorporation of all important atom migration driving forces into the mass balance equation and its solution together with solution of the coupled electromagn…
Abstract A polypropylene/high‐density polyethylene blend containing 70 wt % polypropylene was prepared and compatibilized via the addition of maleic anhydride grafted polypropylene and polyethylene. The functionalized polymer chains were coupled with two types of coupling agents. Dodecane diamine formed covalent bonds…
Nanomaterials have long featured in the earth and environmental sciences but their importance and potential have only recently been realized. The impact of nanoscience here has been likened to that...
The effects of group-IV element dopants on the structural and electrical properties of Cu2O thin films were studied. Similar dopant-induced behavior was found in the observed variations of the growth orientation and electrical properties of Si- and Ge-doped Cu2O thin films. Ge doping was found to induce electrically a…
Structural distortion of ferroelectric thin films caused by film strain has a strong impact on the microwave dielectric properties. SrTiO3 thin films epitaxially grown on (110)DyScO3 substrates using molecular beam epitaxy are extremely strained (i.e., ∼1% in-plane tensional strain) from 3.905Å of bulk SrTiO3. The roo…
