Exploration of the Ca-Ga-Nb-O phase diagram by solid-state reaction in air led to isolation of Ca4GaNbO8. The crystal structure was determined ab initio by synchrotron X-ray and high-resolution neutron powder diffraction. Ca4GaNbO8 adopts a heavily distorted oxygen-deficient perovskite structure with the rare feature…

We demonstrate control of the magnetoresistance of Co/Cu/Fe giant magnetoresistance structures on BaTiO3(001) by electric field. The magnetoresistance clearly increases with electric field strength in the three different ferroelectric phases of BaTiO3, while the electric field dependence is more significant in the ort…

The buoyancy concept is critically re-examined for applications to dispersions of nano-particles, such as colloids, proteins, or macromolecules. It is shown that when the size of the buoyant particle is not too different (say, at most a factor of ten) from the size of the dispersed particles, new intriguing phenomena…

We report the evolution of superconductivity and the phase diagram of the K x Fe 2− y Se 2− z Te z ( z = 0–0.6) crystals grown by a one-step synthesis. The one-step synthesis is much simpler than a conventional process to grow the K x Fe 2− y Se 2 system. No structural transition is observed in any crystals, while lat…

Pipes of 3003/4043 clad aluminum alloys are used in air conditioning systems and are exposed to flowing relatively high‐temperature solutions (353 – 373 K). In the present investigation, the corrosion behavior of pure aluminum and 1050‐, 3003‐, and 4043‐aluminum alloys was examined by immersing in 1.57 × 10 −3 kmolm −…

Au nanoparticles (AuNPs), which easily aggregate in organic thin film, are observed to well-disperse in chicken albumen thin films. The incorporated AuNPs is distributed uniformly inside the thin film and is as dense as 650 (particles/μm(3)). In addition, enhanced ultraviolet (UV) fluorescence centered at 350 nm is ob…

The compound [4'-CF3bzPy][Ni(mnt)2] (1) (where 4'-CF3bzPy = 1-(4'-(trifluoromethyl)benzyl)pyridinium and mnt(2-) = maleonitriledithiolate) was synthesized and displays a magnetic bistability with a surprisingly large thermal hysteresis loop (~49 K). X-ray crystallographic studies reveal that in the high-temperature (H…

Abstract We have studied the stable end phase formed in amorphous germanium (a‐Ge) films that have been subjected to a pressure‐induced phase transformation under indentation loading using a large (20 µm) spherical indenter. After indentation the samples have been annealed at room temperature to remove any residual un…
