Nanostructured scandium hydrous oxides were hydrothermally synthesized at 180 degrees C for 18 h, using NaOH, NH(4)OH, and KOH as the bases. They were characterized by means of X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), N2 adsorption, thermogravimetry and differential thermal analysis (TG-DTA), i…

A novel hydrophilic and negatively charged azobenzene-bearing amino acid, 4'-carboxyphenylazophenylalanine (azoAla 1), has been designed and synthesized for investigation of the photochemical regulation of the enzyme activity. The properties of photoisomerization and thermal stability of the cis-isomer were similar to…

Twenty-seven samples in the series of mixed double perovskites of the type A 2 NiWO 6 where A is a suitable alkaline earth cation or combination of such cations (Ca, Ca with Sr, Sr, Sr with Ba, or Ba) have been prepared using NiWO 4 as a starting material. The structures of the oxides have been determined using synchr…

The crystal structures of [MnTPP]{Ni[S2C2H(CN)]2} [MnTPP = (meso-tetraphenylporphinato)manganese(III)] and [MnTPP]{Ni[S2C2(CN)2]2} have been determined. These salts possess trans-mu-coordination of S = 1/2 {Ni[S2C2H(CN)]2}*- and {Ni[S(2)C(2)(CN)(2)](2)}*- to Mn(III) and form parallel 1-D coordination polymer chains ex…

The segregation of the low-molecular-weight fractions on the crystal growth of polydisperse polymers has been identified as a general phenomenon by means of dynamic Monte Carlo simulations of lattice polymer systems. Its mechanism was elucidated on the basis of the intramolecular nucleation model. A unified scheme has…

Risk assessment in the environmental health sciences focuses on understanding the nature of environmental exposures and the potential harm posed by those exposures which in turn is determined by the perturbation of biological pathways and the individual's susceptibility to damage. While there are extensive research ef…

In this work, we report a gas-phase polymerization approach to create end-grafted vinyl based polymer films on silicon oxide based substrates. The "surface-initiated vapor deposition polymerization" (SI-VDP) of vaporized vinyl monomers, via the nitroxide-mediated free radical polymerization mechanism, was developed to…

Abstract Summary: Thermosensitive polymer nanotubes can be fabricated within an aminopropylsilane‐modified porous anodic aluminum oxide membrane by surface‐initiated atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) followed by template removal. DSC experiments prove that the synthesized PNIPAM‐ co ‐MBAA copolymer nanotubes…

We present a complete set of overlapping pressure-volume-temperature and dielectric relaxation data of the glass forming liquids propylene carbonate, meta-fluoroaniline, and glycerol under pressure up to 700 MPa. In all the samples a glass transition is induced by pressure at constant temperature. We compare the spect…

A series of dendritic phenylazomethines (DPA), which have a meso-substituted zinc porphyrin core (DPAGX-ZnP, X = 1-4), were synthesized. Structural studies of these dendrimers were carried out using Tri-SEC (triple detection after size exclusion chromatography), intrinsic viscosity analysis, TEM (tunneling electron mi…

The Voronoi cell volume distributions for hard-disk and hard-sphere fluids have been studied. The distribution of the Voronoi free volume vf, which is the difference between the actual cell volume and the minimal cell volume at close packing, is well described by a two-parameter (2gamma) or a three-parameter (3gamma)…

We report experimental evidence for atomic chain formation during stretching of atomic-sized contacts for gold and silver, that is strongly enhanced due to oxygen incorporation. While gold has been known for its tendency to form atomic chains, for silver this is only observed in the presence of oxygen. With oxygen the…

We suggest a geometrical framework to discuss the action of slabs of negatively refracting materials. We show that these slabs generate the same orbits as normal materials, but traced out in opposite directions. This property allows us to confirm that the action of any lossless multilayer can be optically cancelled by…

The field-driven conversion between the zero-field-cooled frozen relaxor state and a ferroelectric state of several cubic relaxors is found to occur in at least two distinct steps, after a period of creep, as a function of time. The relaxation of this state back to a relaxor state under warming in zero field also occu…

We show that the plasmon resonances of a metallic nanoparticle interacting with the surface plasmons of a metallic film is an electromagnetic analogue of the spinless Anderson-Fano model. This is the same model used to describe the interaction of a localized electronic state with a continuous band of electronic states…

We study the problem of heat transport in one-dimensional (1D) spin-chain systems weakly coupled to three-dimensional phonons and impurities. We consider the limit of fast spin excitations and slow phonons, applicable to a number of compounds of the cuprates family, such as Sr2CuO3, where the superexchange J is much l…
