Two crystal structures of human ornithine transcarbamylase (OTCase) complexed with the substrate carbamoyl phosphate (CP) have been solved. One structure, whose crystals were prepared by substituting N-phosphonacetyl-L-ornithine (PALO) liganded crystals with CP, has been refined at 2.4 A (1 A=0.1 nm) resolution to a c…
The effect of nitrogen addition on the structure and nanomechanical properties of tetrahedral amorphous carbon, tα-C, has been studied. The tα-C films were grown on Al 2 O 3 -TiC substrates by reactive pulsed KrF excimer laser ablation of graphite targets at a laser fluence of 10 J cm -2 . Nitrogen contents up to 19 a…
The effect of pressure on the crystal structure of HfW2O8 has been investigated by neutron powder diffraction. At a hydrostatic pressure of 0.62 GPa at room temperature the cubic material transforms, with a 5% reduction in volume, to the same orthorhombic phase that is seen in the isostructural compound ZrW2O8 above 0…
The magnetic and electronic properties of Fe-, Co-, Ni-substituted La0.7Ca0.3MnO3 were studied. Ferromagnetic–paramagnetic and metal–insulator transitions were significantly affected by Mn-site substitution although no observable differences were found in their crystal structures from x-ray diffraction analysis. Valen…
Radiation damage and the nature of the metamict state in natural zircons were studied and analysed using reflection and absorption infrared spectroscopy. IR bands of crystalline zircon in the far infrared region remain detectable in highly metamict samples. This suggests that some local order or short-range order pers…
This work focuses on the structural and magnetic characterization of arrays of cobalt nanowires, with diameters in the range 100–400 nm and lengths of L⩽6 μm, produced by electrodeposition in polycarbonate membrane pores. Diffraction patterns of Co nanowires indicate that Co is stabilized in the hcp structure with a p…
A multiple-shell model is presented for infinitesimal axially compressed buckling of a multiwalled carbon nanotube embedded within an elastic matrix. In contrast to an existing single-shell model which treats the entire multiwalled nanotube as a singlelayer elastic shell, the present model assumes that each of the nes…
Skutterudite (CoSb3 and IrSb3) thin films of high phase purity and crystallinity have been prepared by pulsed laser deposition. It is found that while the crystallinity of the films increases with increasing temperature, the phase purity decreases due to antimony volatility. The skutterudite phase can be stabilized to…
A room-temperature structural model of titanium pyrophosphate, TiP(2)O(7), has been determined from synchrotron X-ray data. The structure consists of TiO(6) octahedra and PO(4) tetrahedra sharing corners in a three-dimensional network. The PO(4) tetrahedra form P(2)O(7) groups connecting the TiO(6) octahedra. The 3 x…
PbTiO 3 has been successfully synthesized at reduced temperatures (500−700 °C) using neither organics (including alkoxides) nor undesirable halides. Water-soluble peroxytitanic complexes [Ti(OH) 3 O 2 ] - were prepared by the reaction between titanium metal and hydrogen peroxide at pH = 11. A solution of lead nitrate…
The magnetic properties of the Invar alloy ${\mathrm{Fe}}_{64}{\mathrm{Ni}}_{36}$ have been investigated by x-ray emission spectroscopy as a function of pressure up to 20 GPa. With increasing pressure, the amplitude of the Fe local moment, deduced from the Fe $K\ensuremath{\beta}$ line satellite intensity, is reduced…

A fast method for inducing alignment of microdomains in noncrystalline block copolymers is presented. The method is based on the use of crystalline organic materials, which are solvents for the block copolymers above their melting temperatures, and, when cooled and directionally crystallized, act as a substrate on whi…
Temperature programmed desorption was used to study the reaction of CH 3 OH on several different ceria-based model catalysts. These catalysts consisted of a CeO 2 (111) single crystal and thin ceria films supported on α-Al 2 O 3 (0001) and yttria-stabilized zirconia (100). The results of this study demonstrate that th…
Resistivity, due to spin-dependent scattering of carriers in ferromagnetic metals with localized spins, is studied to investigate the extraordinary behaviors of the resistivity, such as the giant magnetoresistance and the anomalous temperature dependence near the ferromagnetic transition temperature ${T}_{c}.$ The res…
The crystal structure of hexagonal yttrium trioxomanganate has been determined at room temperature and at 180 K. It is isomorphous with LuMnO(3). The Mn displacement vector has a frustrated component in the ab plane and a ferroelectric part along the c axis. The net ferroelectricity is zero due to inversion twinning,…
The magnetic properties of nonstoichiometric cobalt ferrite nanocrystals differing by their sizes were investigated by magnetic measurements and Fe57 Mössbauer spectroscopy. We found that the spin-wave Bloch exponent increases with increasing particle size, in agreement with previous studies. Under a magnetic field of…
The new phases, Na 4 M 3 (PO 4 ) 2 (P 2 O 7 ) (M = Mn, Co, Ni), have been synthesized by solid-state reactions. Single crystals of Na 4 M 3 (PO 4 ) 2 (P 2 O 7 ) (M = Mn, Ni) have been isolated and their structure has been determined by X-ray diffraction techniques using as the starting model the structure of the isost…

In this work the critical behaviour of films of La 0.7 Ba 0.3 MnO 3 , La 0.7 Sr 0.3 MnO 3 , La 0.7 Ca 0.3 MnO 3 and (LaMn) 1-δ O 3 is studied. Apart from the La 0.7 Ca 0.3 MnO 3 film, each of these manganite films shows a continuous phase transition with mean-field critical exponents. The analysis of the critical ampl…
