A theoretical model is presented for low-frequency magnetoelectric (ME) effects in bilayers of magnetostrictive and piezoelectric phases. A novel approach, the introduction of an interface coupling parameter k, is proposed for the consideration of actual boundary conditions at the interface. An averaging method is use…

We obtain an effective parametrization of the bulk electronic structure of InP within the Tight Binding scheme. Using these parameters, we calculate the electronic structure of InP clusters with the size ranging upto 7.5 nm. The calculated variations in the electronic structure as a function of the cluster size is fou…

We study theoretically the interaction between soft magnetic and superconducting films. It is shown that the vortex induces a magnetization distribution in the magnetic film, thus modifying the magnetic field as well as the interactions with e.g. Bloch walls. In particular, the field from the vortex may change sign cl…

[reaction: see text] meso-Aryloxy- and alkoxy-substituted porphyrins were conveniently synthesized by direct reactions of meso-halogenated porphyrins with alcohols via palladium-catalyzed C-O cross-coupling reactions. Using a combination of palladium precursor Pd(OAc)(2) or Pd(2)(dba)(3) and phosphine ligand DPEphos o…

Adsorption of water vapor on mesoporous materials such as MCM-41, MCM-48, KIT-1, SBA-1, and SBA-15, which have different pore sizes and shapes, was investigated by using a gravimetric system. In addition, adsorption of water vapor on KIT-1 mesoporous material was examined at 293.15 to 353.15 K. A hybrid isotherm model…

Temperature-programmed desorption experiments show that acetone chemisorbs on nanotubes while physisorption occurs on graphite. Computed high binding energies for chemisorption using hybrid quantum mechanical and semiempirical calculations are in good agreement with the experimental thermal desorption data. The strong…

It is well known that copper-based perovskite oxides rightly enjoy consensus as high-temperature superconductors on the basis of two signatures: Meissner effect and zero resistance. In contrast, I provide over twenty signatures for room temperature superconductivity in carbon nanotubes. The one-dimensionality of the n…

We have developed a nonlinear differential effective dipole approximation (NDEDA), in an attempt to investigate the effective linear and third-order nonlinear susceptibility of composite media in which graded spherical inclusions with weak nonlinearity are randomly embedded in a linear host medium. Alternatively, base…

Langmuir−Blodgett technique was used to assemble monolayers (with areas over 20 cm 2 ) of aligned silver nanowires that are ∼50 nm in diameter and 2−3 μm in length. These nanowires possess pentagonal cross-sections and pyramidal tips. They are close-packed and are aligned parallel to each other. The resulting nanowire…

The concept of a new direct approach to reducing yarn residual torque in ring-spun yarns, called Torque-free Singles (TFS) ring-spinning is introduced. Its incorporation into the ring spinning process without the need of an additional step is seen as its main advantage. It also requires only the attachment of a modifi…
