The electronic structure of ${\mathrm{TiO}}_{2}$ aerogels is studied by soft x-ray absorption near-edge structure (XANES) spectroscopy. High-resolution O K-edge and Ti ${L}_{2,3}$-edge XANES spectra of aerogels are compared with those of rutile, anatase, and unrelaxed amorphous phases of full-density ${\mathrm{TiO}}_{…
Reductive alkylation of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) using lithium and alkyl halides in liquid ammonia yields sidewall functionalized nanotubes that are soluble in common organic solvents. Atomic force microscopy (AFM) and high-resolution tunneling electron microscopy (HRTEM) of dodecylated SWNTs prepared fr…
Using first-principles calculations we show that the adsorption of atomic hydrogen on graphene opens a substantial gap in the electronic density of states in which lies a spin-polarized gap state. This spin is quenched by the presence of a rotated C-C bond (a Stone-Wales defect) adjacent to or distant from the H atom.…
Nanometer sized whiskers (nanowires) offer a vehicle for the study of size-dependent phenomena. While quantum-size effects are commonly expected and easily predicted, size reduction also causes more atoms to be closer to the surface. Here we show that intensity relations of below-band-gap and band-edge luminescence in…
An amphiphilic hexa-peri-hexabenzocoronene self-assembles to form a pi-electronic, discrete nanotubular object. The object is characterized by an aspect ratio greater than 1000 and has a uniform, 14-nanometer-wide, open-ended hollow space, which is an order of magnitude larger than those of carbon nanotubes. The wall…
Abstract The influence of tetramethylthiuram monosulfide (TMTM) in the vulcanization process of natural rubber and butadiene rubber with dipentamethylene thiuram tetrasulfide (DPTT) was investigated. Vulcanization parameters as reaction rate and reversion varied when TMTM was added in NR‐DPTT formulations. Crosslinkin…
In this model, the matrix phase is defined to consist o f the cementitious materials, the water, and the aggregate fines (< 125 jum). The particle phase correspondingly consists of the remaining aggregates. The inputs o f the model are the properties o f each phase. The challenge is to describe and determine these pro…
Thin films of $({\mathrm{La}}_{0.6}{\mathrm{Pr}}_{0.4}{)}_{0.7}{\mathrm{Ca}}_{0.3}{\mathrm{MnO}}_{3}$ were grown on ${\mathrm{NdGaO}}_{3}(110)$ and ${\mathrm{LaAlO}}_{3}(001)$ substrates by pulsed laser deposition. The substrate temperature was held at 820 \ifmmode^\circ\else\textdegree\fi{}C, and the oxygen pressure…
Abstract The different melting temperatures of N ‐methyl morpholine N ‐oxide (NMMO) hydrates in the cellulose–NMMO hydrate solution may be explained by the rather different crystal structures of NMMO hydrates, which are determined by the amount of the hydrates. The preparative process of cellulose–NMMO hydrate solutio…
Abstract Summary: New monomeric benzo[ de ]isoquinoline‐1,3‐dione blue emitting fluorophores, containing hindered amine stabilizer fragment have been synthesized under phase transfer catalysis conditions and their ability for “one‐step” optical bleaching and stabilization of poly(methyl methacrylate) has been demonstr…
The magnetic properties of Cu(2)(dca)(4)(2,5-me(2)pyz) have been reexamined. The extended structure of Cu(2)(dca)(4)(2,5-me(2)pyz) can be viewed in terms of Cu(2)(2,5-me(2)pyz)(4+) dimer units interconnected via mu(1,5)-dca ligands. The bulk magnetic susceptibility chi(T) and the isothermal M(H) of Cu(2)(dca)(4)(2,5-m…
A joint experimental and theoretical study has been carried out to rationalize the results of visible photoluminescence measurements at room temperature on Sr 1- x TiO 3- x (ST) perovskite thin films. From the experimental side, ST thin films, x = 0 to 0.9, have been synthesized following soft chemical processing, and…
Abstract Alkali treatment can change the structures and properties of cellulosic fibers. The aim of this work was to study the mechanism of structural changes of Newcell fibers treated with different alkali concentrations and two treatment methods. Raman spectra showed that the molecular conformation of Newcell fibers…
Abstract This study has created a new way of microcellullar processing PET thin sheet foam using a conventional hydraulic press by compression molding and by setting the temperature of press plates differently. Comparing this study with our previous work, the emphasis is on the difference of plate temperature. The non…
We present a study of the effects of confinement on a system of hard Gaussian overlap particles interacting with planar substrates through the hard-needle-wall potential. Using geometrical arguments to calculate the molecular volume absorbed at the substrates, we show that both planar and homeotropic arrangements can…
Ground-state properties of layered nickelates are investigated based on the orbital-degenerate Hubbard model coupled with lattice distortions, by using numerical techniques. The Néel state composed of spin S=1 ions is confirmed in the undoped limit x = 0. At x = 1/2, novel antiferromagnetic states, called CE- and E-ty…
The unique aspects of neutron scattering in biology rely largely on the extraordinary parameters of interaction of neutrons with hydrogen nuclei. The origin of isotopic and spin incoherent scattering and its possible implication for neutron diffraction from protein crystals are described. The impact of a change in the…
Electronic phase separation consisting of the metallic and insulating domains with $50--100\text{ }\ensuremath{\mu}\mathrm{m}$ in diameter is found in the organic Mott system $\ensuremath{\kappa}\mathrm{\text{\ensuremath{-}}}[(h8\mathrm{\text{\ensuremath{-}}}\mathrm{BEDT}\mathrm{\text{\ensuremath{-}}}\mathrm{TTF}{)}_{…
Hexyl methacrylate (HMA), methyl methacrylate (MMA), and methacrylic acid (MAA) were used as comonomers to produce a low glass transition temperature material, potentially useful in fabricating a small diameter vascular graft. Because it has been shown that grafts seeded with endothelial cells have better resistance t…
We present direct depletion potential measurements for a single colloidal sphere close to a wall in suspensions of charged colloidal rods. In contrast to earlier studies of purely entropic systems (Helden et al. Phys. Rev. Lett. 2003, 90, 048301), here electrostatic interactions are important. These enhance the deplet…
