We study the self-organization of a polydisperse A−B multiblock copolymer melt with repulsive interactions between the different monomers. In the framework of the one-loop (Hartree) approximation we consider the influence of the polydispersity parameter u, which is the ratio of the first two moments of the block lengt…

We propose a theoretical model that successfully describes numerically such major features of the electrical conductivity of the surface of ice as its magnitude and frequency dependence. Comparison of the model with experimental results on σ s confirms that the magnitudes of the ice surface charge density and ice surf…

Abstract An Fe-berthierine occurs in a buried laterite from the Late Cretaceous (Cenomanian) in southwestern Minnesota. It formed beneath a lignitic horizon in which reducing solutions percolated through a laterite comprising gibbsite, kaolinite and goethite. Morphologic differences suggest 2 separate conditions of Fe…

Transition metal oxides are a class of materials that are vitally important for developing new materials with functionality and smartness. The unique properties of these materials are related to the presence of elements with mixed valences. The measurement of cation valence states can be performed using X-ray photoele…

For the first time, it has been observed that tin island films used in surface infrared experiments give rise to an electromagnetic enhancement of the infrared absorption spectrum. The surface enhancement of the infrared (SEIR) absorption by tin island films is shown for evaporated nanometric films of 5,14-pentacenedi…

The phase diagram of the pseudobinary Al 4 C 3 ‐AlN system was predicted using thermodynamic models. It was combined with previous thermodynamic descriptions of the pseudobinary Al4C3‐Al 2 O 3 and AlN‐Al 2 O 3 systems, and then thermodynamic properties of the pseudoternary Al 4 C 3 ‐AlN‐Al 2 O 3 system were assessed b…

A method has been developed to determine the diffusion coefficients of ferric ions in ferrous sulphate doped gels. A radiation induced edge was created in the gel, and two spin-echo sequences were used to acquire a pair of images of the gel at different points of time. For each of these image pairs, a longitudinal rel…
