Rapid development of information technologies originates from the exponential increase in the density of information that can be processed, stored, and transfer by the unit area of relevant devices. There is, however, a growing amount of evidences that the progress achieved in this way approaches its limits. Various n…
A novel in-situ polymerization approach has been used to manufacture polyolefin–clay nanocomposites (see Figure) with amazingly enhanced performance. The nanocomposites demonstrate reduced thermal expansion coefficients, improved melt flow strengths, increased heat-distortion temperatures, and lowered gas diffusion co…
Cellulose fibers have been successfully grafted with poly(methyl acrylate) using atom transfer radical polymerization, mediated by Me6-TREN and Cu(I)Br at ambient temperature. The initially hydrophilic cellulose was first modified by reacting the hydrozyl groups with 2-bromoisobutyryl bromide whereupon methyl acrylate…
The oxygen/silver system exhibits unique catalytic behavior for several large-scale oxidation (and partial oxidation) industrial processes. In spite of its importance, very little is known on the microscopic level concerning the atomic geometry and chemical nature of the various O species that form. Using density-func…
The spin-dependent electronic structure of thin epitaxial films of magnetite, ${\mathrm{Fe}}_{3}{\mathrm{O}}_{4}(111),$ has been investigated at room temperature by means of spin-, energy-, and angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy. Near the Fermi energy ${E}_{F}$ a spin polarization of $\ensuremath{-}(80\ifmmode\…
The stability of the shapes of crystal growth face and dissolution face in a two-dimensional mathematical model of crystal growth from solution under microgravity is studied. It is proved that the stable shapes of crystal growth face and dissolution face do exist, which are suitably shaped curves with their upper part…
Nanocrystalline silicon (nc-Si) films were deposited by plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition using SiF 4 /SiH 4 /H 2 . The structural and optical properties of the nc-Si films were examined by varying the deposition temperature, T d , for two different series of films with different H 2 and SiF 4 flow rates: [H 2…
Hydrogen-induced ferroelectric degradation of Pb(Zr,Ti)O 3 (PZT) films was studied by measuring the hysteresis curves after hydrogen annealing at various temperatures and times. It was found that hydrogen annealing at temperatures below 100°C resulted in an increase of remanent polarization due to the accumulation of…
The characteristics of oxides grown on silicon wafers under external mechanical stress were studied. It was found that the SiO 2 films grown under external compressive stress had a decreased etching rate. From capacitance–voltage ( C – V ) measurements, it was observed that a tensile sample had a reduced interface sta…
The influence of the electrical field on the variable range hopping process of porous carbon networks is examined in the range of validity of the law ln σ(T)∝T−1/2, where σ and T mean electrical conductivity and temperature, respectively. We show that the field dependence of the samples investigated in the vicinity of…
The angular distribution of photoemission from gold thin films was studied in this paper. A theoretical model of angular distribution was first developed. Experimental measurement was then carried out from a simple set-up. The measured angular distribution was in good agreement with theoretical calculation. It was fou…
We present ambient-pressure luminescence, luminescence excitation spectra, and luminescence decays and high-pressure luminescence of chromium doped $\mathrm{CaO}\ensuremath{-}{\mathrm{Ga}}_{2}{\mathrm{O}}_{3}\ensuremath{-}{\mathrm{GeO}}_{2}$ glass material. The material has been found to be very inhomogeneous with emi…
Spin tunneling is investigated in magnetic molecules that have an easy axis with fourfold symmetry, such as ${\mathrm{Mn}}_{12}$-acetate, with emphasis on understanding the topological quenching of tunneling and the diabolical point locations in the magnetic field space. This is done using a model spin Hamiltonian tha…
An interesting way to obtain compatible blends of poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) and polystyrene- b -poly(ethylenepropylene) (PS−PEP) has been achieved. The intrinsically immiscible blends such as PCL/PS and PCL/PEP become compatible while the PS and PEP components form a diblock copolymer to melt blending with PCL. The m…
H 1 nuclear magnetic resonance cryoporometry has been applied to study the low-temperature phase separation of the two components in a binary liquid imbibed in porous glass. The mixture of hexane and nitrobenzene was quenched below both its upper critical temperature and the freezing point of the nitrobenzene. The siz…
BTQBT (bis-(1, 2, 5-thiadiazolo)-p-quinobis(1, 3-dithiole)) films have been prepared as active semiconducting layers of organic field effect transistors (FETs). BTQBT films showed a p-type semiconducting behavior. The hole mobility and on/off ratio of BTQBT films under ultrahigh vacuum conditions reached to 0.2 cm 2 /…
High-quality and large piezoelectric single crystals of Pb[(Zn 1/3 Nb 2/3 ) 0.91 Ti 0.09 ]O 3 (PZNT91/09) fabricated by the Bridgman method were investigated regarding the material constants and their temperature dependence. The single crystals poled along [001] of the original cubic direction possess high piezoelectr…
We apply self-consistent field theory to confined films of symmetric ABC triblock copolymer melts, where the A and C blocks are equal in size and A-B, B-C, and A-C interactions are identical. We focus on the regime where, in bulk systems, B forms the majority domain and the minority A and C domains form cylinders or s…
We investigated the growth of carbon nanotubes (CNT) directly on silicon substrates by nanoparticle-catalyst-assisted chemical vapor deposition. Single-walled CNTs were almost selectively obtained when methane was used in combination with Fe 2 O 3 nanoparticles at the growth temperature of around 950°C. In the growth…
The intrinsic viscosity [η] was determined for 23 samples of atactic oligo- and poly(α-methylstyrene)s (a-PαMS), each with the fraction of racemic diads f r = 0.72, in the range of weight-average molecular weight M w from 4.12 × 10 2 to 5.46 × 10 6 in three good solvents, toluene, 4- tert -butyltoluene, and n -butyl c…
