Polymeric carboxylic acids such as poly(acrylic acid) and copoly(acrylic—maleic acid)s are widely used as cobuilders in detergent powder formulations. They were introduced in the early 1980s in combination with zeolites as partial replacements for polyphosphates, which were removed from detergent formulations because…

Electromigration-induced void growth in Al metallization was investigated by comparing it with the electrical resistance change and the thermographically measured change in temperature distribution. Constant current flowing through two different-width interconnects in series consistently induced void growth at their j…

Poly(vinylamine) is of interest because of its pH-dependent cationic nature and its reactive primary amine functionality. The preparation of poly(vinylamines) of various molecular weights via the synthesis and hydrolysis of poly(N-ethenylformamide) (PNEF) is readily accomplished. Solution properties of poly(vinylamine…

The transport of fluids in the semicrystalline polymer, poly(aryl ether ether ketone) (PEEK), was investigated. Both solubility and rate of penetration of toluene into PEEK are markedly increased by the application of an external stress. The induction period (i.e., the time for the sorption to begin) is a function of…

Colloidal suspensions of InP quantum dots (diameters 25 and 35 Å) show steplike absorption spectra which are blue-shifted by about 1 eV with respect to bulk material. Time resolved femtosecond spectroscopy at room temperature identifies the first quantum confined state. The nonlinear bleaching signal rises within 300…

We investigate the properties of II–VI short period superlattice (SPSL) blue light-emitting diodes grown by molecular beam epitaxy. The device consists of a ZnSe active layer, SPSL MgZnSSe cladding layers, and a ZnSeTe digital graded contact. The SPSL structure is made of alternating layers of MgSe, ZnSe, ZnS, and ZnS…

We present results of a solution to longitudinal impact of thick bars, obtained via an exact three-dimensional theory. Detailed investigation of the behavior of the solution has been carried out, including a number of subsidiary calculations. The results obtained made it possible to improve on the knowledge of the phy…

The influence of thermal fluctuations on adsorption isotherms is calculated within the context of a self-consistent mean-field theory, and it is found that such fluctuations cannot be neglected in the analysis of adsorption data. This result arises from our observation that substrate-induced hindrance of thermal fluct…

A mean-field description is presented for the nematic and hexagonal ordering of intrinsically polydisperse semiflexible wormlike micelles interacting via a hard core volume exclusion potential. The predicted phase diagram is determined by two parameters, controlling the intrinsic rigidity of the micelles and their siz…
