We present the results of electrical resistivity and Hall effect measurements on single crystals of HfNiSn, TiPtSn, and TiNiSn. Semiconducting behavior is observed in each case, involving the transport of a small number of highly compensated carriers. Magnetization measurements suggest that impurities and site disorde…

Abstract The influences of the deacetylation temperature, deacetylation time, and NaOH concentration on the degree of deacetylation (DD) of deacetylated products prepared from β‐chitin are discussed. The DD values of deacetylated products are related to the ratio of the signal intensities of methyl on acetyl groups an…

Damage accumulation due to cascade overlap, which was simulated previously, has been used to study the changes in elastic constants and the bulk and elastic moduli as a function of dose in SiC. These mechanical properties generally decrease with increasing dose, and the rapid decrease at low-dose levels indicates that…

Abstract Summary: A diblock copolymer brush consisting of poly(methyl acrylate)‐ block ‐poly(pentafluoropropyl acrylate) (Si/SiO 2 //PMA‐ b ‐PPFA) was synthesized on a porous silica substrate. The brush was exposed to selective solvents, as well as thermal treatments, to induce a surface rearrangement. The rearrangeme…

Abstract The adsorption of phenylacetylene (PA) on gold nanoparticle surfaces was investigated by means of surface‐enhanced Raman scattering (SERS). The aggregation behaviors were examined by UV–visible absorption spectroscopy and transmission electron microscopy. The phenyl ring of PA appeared to assume a perpendicul…

The frictional behavior of diamond-like carbon (DLC) films varies with environmental condition. One theory asserts that the cause of variations in the frictional performance is environmental contaminants adsorbing onto the DLC film surface. Testing of the frictional performance of DLC films in a pin-on-disk contact ha…
