We propose a novel approach to obtain conducting polymer nanoparticles with high electrochemical activity and a narrow size distribution. The method - templateless and seedless - uses polyacrylate microspheres to deliver the monomer for the polymerization reaction. Thus the obtained nanostructures have an active - unb…

The water soluble tris-aqua complex [Gd(dhqN-SO3)(H2O)3](3-) based on a hexadentate hydroxyquinoline ligand shows high thermodynamic stability and high relaxivity (12.54 mM(-1) s(-1) at 1.2 T). Its non-covalent confinement in 25 nm silica nanoparticles prevents transmetallation and endogenous anion binding and leads t…

This paper describes a robust and efficient numerical scheme for solving the system of six coupled partial differential equations which arises when using $Q$-tensor theory to model the behavior of a nematic liquid crystal cell under the influence of an applied electric field. The key novel feature is the use of a full…

The luminescence properties of Tb(3+) in CaWO4 crystals are investigated under a hydrostatic pressure of up to 200 kbar, i.e. across scheelite-to-fergusonite phase transition. It is shown that the typical blue ((5)D3) and green ((5)D4) emissions in this material are progressively quenched at room temperature as pressu…
