We show that hexagonally ordered structures can either be grown to form a self-ordered pore or tube array, depending only on the electrochemical conditions during anodization of Hf in fluoride containing electrolytes. The water content in the electrolyte is the main factor affecting the transition from pores to tubes…

Zinc perfluoro-fluoroalkyl-phthalocyanine, synthesized in high yield, does not exhibit electron loss, does not aggregate in solution, is photostable and produces (1)O(2) in very high quantum yields. Aerobic photo-oxygenation of an external substrate occurs without catalyst self-oxidation. The encapsulation of a metal…

Surface wettability is dependent to surface energy of the material. Therefore the surface wettability basically reflects its intrinsic surface property and it has been thought that it is hard to be controlled arbitrarily. For example, inorganic materials such like metal oxides usually exhibit relatively hydrophilic pr…

Counterions present at the surface of polyelectrolyte multilayers (PEMs) were utilized for modulation of surface wettability via ion exchange. The PEM film was dipped in aqueous solutions of different anions, respectively, and the water contact angle of the surface varied from about 10° to 120°, depending on the hydra…

A continuum-level analytical model was developed for the performance of solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) with mixed conducting electrolytes. The model was derived by coupling the Nernst–Planck equation for mass transport in the bulk with the Butler–Volmer equation for mass transport across an interface and by employing…

Under pulsed laser UV irradiation, thin-film coatings made of close-packed TiO2 nanorods individually coated with surfactants can exhibit a temporary increase in their degree of surface hydroxylation without any apparent photocatalytic removal of the capping molecules. This mechanism provides a basis for achieving lig…

Abstract The crystallization of N-3,5-di-tert-butylsalicylidene-3-carboxyaniline (1) from a methanol solution gave three crystal forms, 1α, 1β, and 1γ. The colorless 1α and pale yellow 1β turned red when they were irradiated with UV light whereas orange 1γ showed no color change. The lifetimes of the colored crystals…

It has been shown that the disruption of the alpha-subunit gene of heterotorimeric G-proteins (Galpha) results in dwarf traits, the erection of leaves and the setting of small seeds in rice. These mutants are called d1. We have studied the expression profiles of the transcripts and translation products of rice Galpha…
