Some shape memory alloys like NiTi show noticeable high damping property inpseudoelastic range. Due to its unique characteristics, a NiTi alloy is commonly used forpassive damping applications, in which the energy may be dissipated by the conversion frommechanical to thermal energy. This study presents a shape memory…
Five diamines with thiophene-based bridges--(E)-1,2-bis{5-[bis(4-butoxyphenyl)amino]-2-thienyl}ethylene (1), 5,5'-bis[bis(4-methoxyphenyl)amino]-2,2'-bithiophene (2), 2,6-bis[bis(4-butoxyphenyl)amino]dithieno[3,2-b:2',3'-d]thiophene (3), N-(4-tert-butylphenyl)-2,6-bis[bis(4-methoxyphenyl)amino]dithieno[3,2-b:2',3'-d]p…
The self-assembly reaction between trivalent lanthanide ions, 2,2':6',2' '-terpyridine (terpy) ligand, and octacyanotungstate(V) leads to the formation of two series of isomorphous cyano-bridged compounds: (i) one-dimensional (1-D) chains [Ln(terpy)(DMF)(4)][W(CN)(8)].6H(2)O.C(2)H(5)OH (Ln = Ce-Dy) and (ii) dinuclear…
Two new linear pentanickel complexes [Ni5(bna)4(Cl)2][PF6]2 (1) and [Ni5(bna)4(Cl)2][PF6]4 (2; bna=binaphthyridylamide), were synthesized and structurally characterized. A derivative of 1, [Ni5(bna)4(NCS)2][NCS]2 (3), was also isolated for the purpose of the conductance experiments carried out in comparison with [Ni5(…
The quadrupolar ruthenium alkynyl cruciform complex is reversibly converted to tetravinylidene complex or tetraruthenium(III) tetracationic complex forms by protonation or oxidation, respectively; linear and nonlinear proto- and electrochromism studies reveal independent switching of NLO properties by the protic and e…
Three new copper iodobismuthates, red tetranuclear [n-Bu(4)N][Cu(2)(CH(3)CN)(2)Bi(2)I(10)] (1), dark-red infinite linear [Et(4)N](2n)[Cu(2)Bi(2)I(10)](n) (2), and black polymeric ladderlike [Cu(CH(3)CN)(4)](2n)[Cu(2)Bi(2)I(10)](n) (3), crystallize from solutions of BiI3 and CuI in the presence of different cations. A…
Conductive polymer chains were directly grafted on a variety of organic substrates containing aromatic functionalities. In this one-step mechanism, the covalent linkages between the substrates and the conducting polymers are created. The enhanced adhesion by grafting enables high-resolution patterning (down to 60 nm)…
PURPOSE: To prospectively determine the cellular iron uptake by using R2 and R2* mapping with multiecho readout gradient-echo and spin-echo sequences. MATERIALS AND METHODS: All experiments were approved by the institutional animal care committee. Lung carcinoma cells were lipofected with superparamagnetic iron oxides…
Three separate organic, fluorescent emitter molecules with emission spectra corresponding to either blue, orange, or yellow have been covalently attached to an inorganic polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (POSS) core in several controllable combinations. We were able to functionalize POSS with eight of the same emit…
A novel electroactive silsesquioxane precursor, N-(4-aminophenyl)-N'-(4'-(3-triethoxysilyl-propyl-ureido) phenyl-1,4-quinonenediimine) (ATQD), was successfully synthesized from the emeraldine form of amino-capped aniline trimers via a one-step coupling reaction and subsequent purification by column chromatography. The…

A series of solid solutions of (Sm 2 - x Mg x )Zr 2 O 7 - x /2 pyrochlores were prepared by a solid-state reaction and characterized by X-ray diffraction, high-temperature dilatometry, Raman spectroscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. X-ray diffraction and Raman spectroscopy reveal that MgO doping does not bre…
Abstract Mesostructured silica nanofibers synthesized in high yields with cetyltrimethylammonium bromide as the structure‐directing agent in HBr solutions are used as templates for the assembly of Au and Ag nanoparticles and the formation of thin Au shells along the fiber axis. Presynthesized spherical Au and Ag nanop…
Resistivity under magnetic field, thermopower and Hall coefficient are systematically studied for [Bi$_2$Ba$_{1.3}$K$_{0.6}$Co$_{0.1}$]$^{RS}$[CoO$_2$]$_{1.97}$ single crystal. In-plane resistivity ($ρ_{ab}$(T)) shows metallic behavior down to 2 K with a $T^2$ dependence below 30 K; while out-of-plane resistivity ($ρ_…
Low-temperature scanning tunneling spectroscopy over Co nanoislands on Cu(111) showed that the surface states of the islands vary with their size. Occupied states exhibit a sizeable downward energy shift as the island size decreases. The position of the occupied states also significantly changes across the islands. At…
We demonstrate a new method (U.S. Patent Appl., serial no. 60/908039) for synthesizing carbon nanotubes (CNTs), using first-principles and classical molecular dynamics simulations. The single-walled nanotubes (SWNTs) are formed by folding graphene nanoribbons patterned on graphite films through adsorption of atoms of…
The giant electromechanical response in ferroelectric relaxors such as $\mathrm{Pb}({\mathrm{Mg}}_{1∕3}{\mathrm{Nb}}_{2∕3}){\mathrm{O}}_{3}\text{\ensuremath{-}}\mathrm{Pb}\mathrm{Ti}{\mathrm{O}}_{3}$ (PMN-PT) is of great importance for a number of ultrasonic and medical applications as well as in telecommunications. O…
In this paper we discuss the application of current it ab initio computer simulation techniques to hydrogenated amorphous silicon (a-Si:H). We begin by discussing thermal fluctuation in the number of coordination defects in the material, and its temperature dependence. We connect this to the ``fluctuating bond center…
Inelastic losses are crucial to a quantitative analysis of x-ray absorption spectra. However, current treatments are semi-phenomenological in nature. Here a first-principles, many-pole generalization of the plasmon-pole model is developed for improved calculations of inelastic losses. The method is based on the GW app…
