We describe a method for predicting detection limits of minority elements in electron energy loss spectroscopy (EELS), and its implementation as a software package that gives quantitative predictions for user-specified materials and experimental conditions. The method is based on modeling entire energy loss spectra, i…

Aniline is oxidized to nitrosobenzene as the initial product, which undergoes further oxidation to nitrobenzene. The nitrosobenzene formation is catalyzed by functionalized multiwalled carbon nanotubes (CNT) followed by a coupling reaction between nitrosobenzene and aniline to produce azobenzene. This coupling require…

The Eu-encrypted Preyssler anion, [EuP5W30O110]n-, demonstrates unusual electronic properties as a function of applied potenial. The Preyssler anion itself, when exchanged with a nonredox active trivalent ion such as La3+, is electroactive in acidic solution, reversibly accepting up to 10 electrons under reducing cond…

The phase contents and morphology of a ZrO 2 fiber coating deposited at 1050°C on Hi‐Nicalon TM by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) were examined as a function of deposition time from 5–120 min. The morphological evolution in the ZrO 2 coating was correlated to the development of delamination within the ZrO 2 coating.…

ZnO films doped with different concentrations of aluminum (AZO) have been prepared by the sol–gel technique. The electrical properties of the samples have been measured on as-deposited films. Two of the films have been heat treated in vacuum at 400 °C to determine the changes in transport properties. The electrical pr…

For the first time pressure-volume-temperature (PVT) measurements for the crystal-like smectic E phase have been performed. The phase diagram of 4′-n -octyl-4-isothiocyanatobiphenyl 8BT has been recently established using differential thermal analysis up to 250 MPa. 8BT exhibits a splitting of the clearing line above…

The oxidation of p-toluidine in acetonitrile by hydrogen peroxide is a very slow reaction which produces 4,4'-dimethylazoxybenzene as the product. The presence of functionalized multiwalled carbon nanotubes (CNT) in the above reaction produces 4,4'-dimethylazobenzene. The reactions have been followed by GC/MS, which s…

In the present publication we report on the preparation and spectroscopic features of a penta-coordinate rhodium(III) complex of corrole with bulky ortho-phenyl substituents at the meso positions, Rh ( tdcc )( PPh 3 )[ tdcc = tris (2,6- dichlorophenyl ) corrole ]. Addition of pyridine to Rh ( tdcc )( PPh 3 ), as well…

Microphase separation and morphology of asymmetric diblock copolymer (f = 0.4) thin films confined in a slit with surfaces neutral or attractive towards block A or block B were studied by the cell dynamic system method (CDS). The size effect in CDS calculations was carefully investigated. For asymmetric copolymers, th…

A new method of assessing the magnitude of the magnetic field in a transmission electron microscope using a permanent magnetic material is described. The approach is versatile and simple enough to be implemented for certain scientific or engineering situations in which the exact calibration of the magnetic field in th…

The structure and bonding in oxidized and reduced decatungstate anions have been investigated using density-functional methods. The computational−experimental agreement is good for the geometrical parameters of the oxidized species. The electronic structure of the anions has been probed with molecular-orbital, Mullike…

Abstract Amorphous silicate sediments comprise most of the upper part of the sedimentary column of the Atlantis II Deep, whereas more crystalline phases are found in the lower part. The objective of this study was to focus on the newly-formed, metastable, hydrothermal phases, that eventually transform into clays or Fe…

We report on the evolution of the Raman-active A g phonon modes in the charge-ordered manganite Pr 0.63 Ca 0.37 MnO 3 as a function of temperature from 300 K to 25 K. Our studies reveal that the linewidths of the A g (2) and A g (4) phonons increase as temperature decreases. This anomalous temperature dependence of ph…
