Light-induced molecule reorientation in dye-doped liquid crystals has been applied to nonlinear spatial filtering of periodic patterns. Photoisomerization of azo-dye molecules leads to local alignment changes in the liquidcrystal molecules because of interaction among the molecules. Consequently the polarization of tr…

Electrical currents trigger oxidation or reduction reactions in conducting polymers. Changes in volume associated with these redox processes can be transformed into macroscopic movements of more than 180° by the construction of a bilayer: polypyrrole-flexible and inactive polymer (artificial muscle). The effects of th…

Factors affecting the self‐discharge rate of a nickel/metal‐hydride (Ni‐MH) battery, generally much higher than that of nickel/cadmium (Ni‐Cd) battery, are investigated, and the self‐discharge mechanism is discussed. Ammonia and amine participate in the shuttle reaction like nitrate ion in the Ni‐Cd battery, resulting…

Functional organic dyes provide a direct link between electronics and optics. The supramolecular packing of a given chromophore plays an important role in the functional properties of a material. A highly substituted, soluble quinacridone (see Figure) is presented for which the aggregation process can be directly prob…

Two kinetically distinct types of oxygen atoms can be identified during the isothermal oxidation of CO on Pt(111) even though they all sit in identical sites at the start of the reaction. This is explained by a lowering in the reaction activation barrier with oxygen islanding.

A suggestion is advanced that the stable bubble clusters observed by Marston et al. [Bubble Dynamics and Interface Phenomena, edited by J. R. Blake et al. (Kluwer Academic, Dordrecht, 1994), pp. 343–353] in an ultrasonic field are due to the radiative interaction forces of the bubbles, which change from attraction to…

Textile composites are known to have improved out-of-plane properties and impact resistance. However, detailed analysis of textile composites is very difficult to perform due to the geometric complexity. In the present study, a practical computational procedure based on a global/local finite element method was develop…
