This study evaluates the in vitro biocompatibility of an injectable and biodegradable polymeric network based on poly(propylene fumarate) (PPF) and the cross-linking agent PPF-diacrylate (PPF-DA). Using a methyl tetrazolium (MTT) assay, the effect of the concentrations of PPF and PPF-DA on the cytotoxicity of its unre…
Some doped semiconductors have recently been shown to display superconductivity or weak ferromagnetism. Here we investigate the electronic structure and conditions for magnetism in a supercells of cubic XW_{26}O_{81}, where X=Nb,V and Re. The undoped material is an insulator, and although the slightly doped material i…
We have carried out detailed experimental studies of the exchange bias effect of a series of CoO/Co(111) textured bilayers with different Co layer thickness, using the magneto-optical Kerr effect, SQUID magnetometry, polarized neutron reflectivity, x-ray diffraction, and atomic force microscopy. All samples exhibit a…
The classic theory of electron field emission from a cold metal surface due to Fowler and Nordheim (FN) is re-examined and found to violate the validity criteria for the WKB approximation, for electric fields greater than about 1V per micron. In this study we shall examine the complete solution without invoking the WK…
This paper discusses the solid state and melt nanoscale structure of a series of novel poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) hybrid di- and triblock copolymers, which contain amphiphilic beta-strand peptide sequences. The block copolymers have been prepared via solid-phase synthesis, affording perfectly monodisperse peptide seg…
Formula for calculating the atomic scattering factor for spherical x-ray waves is derived and used to solve the near field effects problem in X-ray Fluorescence Holography theory. A rigorous formalism to calculate the X-ray fluorescence hologram for given atomic distributions is then given so that quantitative structu…
Colloidal Ti has been synthesized following a method described in the literature. Extended x-ray absorption fine structure measurements indicate the presence of small colloidal entities, consisting of only a few core Ti atoms which are coordinated by O atoms from tetrahydrofuran (THF). The results can be explained by…
Some peculiarities of the exploitation of the entropy inequality in case of weakly nonlocal continuum theories are investigated and refined. As an example it is shown that the proper application of the Liu procedure leads to the Ginzburg-Landau equation in case of a weakly nonlocal extension of the constitutive space…
The proposal of using the field-effect for doping organic crystals has raised enormous interest. To assess the feasibility of such an approach, we investigate the effect of a strong electric field on the electronic structure of C60 crystals. Calculating the polarization of the molecules and the splittings of the molec…
Ultrasonic irradiation of magnesium diboride slurries in decalin produces material with significant inter-grain fusion. Sonication in the presence of Fe(CO)5 produces magnetic Fe2O3 nanoparticles embedded in the MgB2 bulk. The resulting superconductor-ferromagnet composite exhibits considerable enhancement of the magn…
The thermal remagnetization (TR), i.e. the reentrance of magnetization upon heating in a steady-field demagnetized sample, is a common feature to the four types of polycrystalline permanent magnets, mainly utilized for practical purposes, i.e. barium ferrites, SmCo5, Sm2Co17 and NdFeB magnets. The effect is small for…
Understanding the charge carrier transport in the disordered organic molecular semiconductors is a fascinating and still unresolved problem in modern condensed-matter physics, yet has an extremely important bearing on their application in ``plastic'' based field effect transistor, light emitting diodes and lasers. The…
Monolithic silica exhibiting a trimodal, hierarchical pore structure has successfully been prepared via sol−gel-processing. Monolithic bodies with interconnected macropores in the micrometer range are a result of controlled phase separation and gelation kinetics, whereas textural mesopores in the 10−20 nm range origin…
Site-specific delivery of angiogenic growth factors from tissue-engineered devices should provide an efficient means of stimulating localized vessel recruitment to the cell transplants and would ensure cell survival and function. In the present article, we describe the construction of a novel porous alginate scaffold…
Calcium carbonate has been precipitated from aqueous solutions containing magnesium under conditions of high supersaturation. The precipitates were analysed over time using X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Infrared Spectroscopy (IR), and it was demonstrated that in all cases amorphous calcium carbonate (ACC) was the first…
Abstract Copolymerizations of ( N , N ‐diethyldithiocarbamyl)methylstyrene (inimer: DTCS) with maleimide (MI) were carried out under UV irradiation. DTCS monomers play an important role in this copolymerization system as an inimer that is capable of initiating radical polymerization of the vinyl group. Reactivity rati…
This work investigates the optical absorption spectrum of the ${\mathrm{NaMnF}}_{4}$-layered perovskite and its variation with pressure. The spectrum basically consists of three broadbands located at 1.916, 2.263, and 2.817 eV, which correspond to the crystal-field (CF) transitions ${}^{5}{\stackrel{\ensuremath{\right…
Abstract The influence of wax content on the thermal, mechanical and viscoelastic properties of low‐density polyethylene (LDPE)–oxidized wax miscible blends have been investigated. It was found that small concentrations of wax improved physical properties such as thermal stability, elastic modulus and yield stress. At…
Recent studies relate the slowing down of the structural relaxation time of supercooled liquids to a decrease of the excess entropy ${S}_{\mathrm{exc}}$ of the melt with respect to the crystal. The theoretical basis of such a result was often found in the Adam Gibbs (AG) theory, implicitly assuming a proportionality b…
Abstract Anionic polyurethane prepolymers end‐capped with isocyanate groups were dispersed and chain‐extended in aqueous media using three different extension agents: hydrazine, 1,2‐ethylene diamine (EDA) and 1,2‐propylene diamine (PDA). Two types of prepolymer were used. The first was prepared from isophorone diisocy…
