Preparation of mesoporous silica by the neutral route has advantages compared with that by electrostatic routes, however, until now the starting materials were alkoxysilanes-rather expensive silica sources. A synthesis is presented that starts from sodium silicate solutions, as an inexpensive inorganic silicon source,…

The etch characteristics of the low-k dielectrics DVS BCB (BCB hereafter) and SILK in oxygen/fluorine based plasmas are studied. In an O2/NF3 plasma afterglow, the etch rate of both polymers first increases linearly with increasing NF3 concentration, then decreases monotonously. A pure fluorine plasma afterglow does n…

We discuss various mechanisms that lead to a high crystallization rate of the recording layer in a phase change disk. The role of interface layers, recording layer composition and its thickness is especially emphasized. Disks with a data bit rate beyond 40 Mbit/s have been realized.

Through their electron-lattice interactions, localized carriers reduce vibrational stiffness constants in their surroundings. States with a large electronic polarizability (e.g., multiatomic localized states and states of a singlet bipolaron formed of degenerate electronic orbitals) induce exceptionally large softenin…

By dissolving tracer quantities of 9,10-phenanthrenequinone (PQ) in poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) it was possible to study by forced Rayleigh scattering (FRS) the tracer diffusion of the unbleached PQ as well as the photoproduct which is covalently bound to the PMMA molecules. The PMMA samples with molecular weight…

Blends of poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) and poly(ethylene 2,6-naphthalate) (PEN) with various compositions were prepared using a mixer at 290 °C and 100 rpm for various times. The transesterification level f TEN and the average chain lengths L PET and L PEN were determined using 1 H NMR. The dynamic mechanical pr…

The metastable pitting of A516‐70 carbon steel was studied under potentiostatic control in solutions containing chloride ions. It was shown that there were different current fluctuation patterns and spectral slopes, that is, roll‐off slopes, in passivity, general corrosion, and metastable pitting. Pits were often cove…

Communication: The use of core–shell latex morphology is reported here to produce three-dimensionally ordered arrays of fluorescent nanoparticles in polymer composite materials. With their soft, inert shells, the particles are easily ordered into an array, after which heat treatment melts the soft shells to give an ar…

The dielectric relaxation modes in low bismuth doped ${\mathrm{SrTiO}}_{3}$ were studied at temperatures 1.5--300 K and frequencies up to 1.8 GHz. We observe two modes, at 8 K (mode I) and 65 K (mode V), which also occur in single-crystalline ${\mathrm{SrTiO}}_{3}.$ With Bi doping, two further dielectric peaks, 18 K (…

In this work, two sets of lead fluoroindogallate glasses were studied with the aim of using them as active media for laser devices at the mid infrared (∼2.8 μm) and visible (∼0.54 μm) regions. The infrared and upconverted emissions of Er3+ in single and Er3+:Yb3+ codoped samples were analyzed, and it was observed that…

The dragline silk from Nephila clavipes was studied by wide angle X-ray diffraction in its original state, after supercontraction to L/Lo = 0.46, and during re-extension to its original length Lo. The fibers were carefully dried before each exposure. The molecular orientation in the crystalline regions is found to fol…

This paper presents a general framework for the formulation of constitutive models that incorporate a localized dissipative mechanism. The formalism of strong discontinuities is employed, allowing for the decoupling of the constitutive characterization of the continuum and localized responses of the material. A proced…
