Measurements of the order-parameter critical exponent $\ensuremath{\beta}$ at the uniaxial-biaxial nematic phase transition in a lyotropic mixture are reported. They reveal a strong dependence of $\ensuremath{\beta}$ on the concentration of the mixture compounds with two distinct intervals of values separated by a dis…
The ability to modify the stacking sequence of ultrathin films offers a unique way to change either the interaction strength or the doping, but demands a careful control of each atomic monolayer. Progress is hampered by the lack of a direct method that allows differentiation on a local scale between the various termin…
Electrical properties of the interface between Bi4Ti3O12 ferroelectric film and p-Si substrate have been studied by capacitance–voltage (C–V) characteristics. It is found that the interface barrier can be broken down temporally because of the charge injection from Si substrate into the ferroelectric thin film, and thi…
A two-dimensional ferromagnetic Ising system composed of ferrimagnetically ordered chains with alternating spin- and spin- S atoms is investigated by the use of Ising spin identities and the differential operator technique, in order to clarify the magnetic properties of bimetallic molecular-based magnetic materials. T…
Weak uniaxial stress (< 1 kPa) along the cubic [100] and [110] directions of modifies significantly the domain structure near the crystal surface on cooling to the tetragonal phase. High-resolution x-ray rocking curves show that oriented slabs have a preference of ` c ' domains perpendicular to a small (001) surface.…
Electrooptic spectroscopy of an antiferroelectric liquid crystal is carried out over a range of frequencies from 1 Hz to 100 kHz. In the antiferroelectric SmCA phase two relaxation processes are found, one at the fundamental frequency of a mode and the second at twice the frequency of a different mode. A comparison of…
In a previous paper it was shown that in-crystal ion polarizabilities derived from low-frequency precision measurements of the dielectric constants of single-crystal oxides can be given a quantitative interpretation using a quantum mechanically based result for a single, completely filled, electron subshell. In this p…
The compressibility of wurtzitic boron nitride (wBN) taken in mixture with cubic BN has been measured at room temperature up to 66 GPa, using a diamond anvil cell and powder diffraction of synchrotron radiation. From the obtained pressure-volume relation for wBN the isothermal bulk modulus of B0=375±9 GPa and its firs…
We report the results of magnetization measurements on pseudomorphic (fully strained) c-axis oriented colossal magnetoresistance manganite thin films grown by molecular beam epitaxy. We observe uniaxial magnetic anisotropy (hard axis/easy plane) with the easy plane being the film plane. Within the plane a weaker biaxi…
A method for the calculation of the temperature dependence of dielectric and piezoelectric responses, based on the use of a first-principles effective Hamiltonian, is described. Results are presented for the ferroelectric perovskite PbTiO3. While the method includes only the soft-mode contributions to the responses, i…
A method of controlling threading dislocation densities in Ge on Si involving graded SiGe layers and chemical-mechanical polishing (CMP) is presented. This method has allowed us to grow a relaxed graded buffer to 100% Ge without the increase in threading dislocation density normally observed in thick graded structures…
We described genetically engineered syntheses of tandem repetitive polypeptides consisting of glycine-rich sequence, GlyLeuGlyGlyGlnGlyGlyGlyAlaGlyGlnGlyGlyTyrGly, designated SCAP(1), in spidroin 1 of spider dragline silk from Nephila clavipes and the secondary conformational analyses in the solid state by Fourier tra…
A variety of approximate methods for efficient modeling of large lanthanide (Ln) complexes were studied. Attention was paid to ligand motifs prevalent in Ln coordination chemistry. Gadolinium was chosen given its central location in the Ln series and its importance in areas such as magnetic resonance imaging. A semiem…
Continuing with the evaluation of costabilizers along with preheated metal stearates to stabilize poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC), pentaerythritol was chosen as a long-term costabilizer. During normal stabilization conditions, the polyol enhances the induction time to degradation but produces large amounts of polyenes. The…
Traditional and gradient interpenetrating polymer networks (IPNs) of various composition have been prepared on the basis of crosslinked siliceous polyurethane and a copolymer of butylmethacrylate and dimethacrylate triethylene glycol. For various layers of gradient IPNs cut from the surface to the center of the sample…
The mixed alcohols were synthesized at different reaction temperatures, different GHSVs, and different pressures over K−MoO 3 supported on different supports such as γ-Al 2 O 3 and SiO 2 . The ammonia adsorption over the catalysts was studied using temperature program desorption (TPD). The ethanol decomposition was st…

Dichlorocarbene-modified styrene–butadiene rubber (SBR) prepared by the alkaline hydrolysis of chloroform using cetyltrimethylammonium bromide as a phase-transfer agent resulted in a product that showed good mechanical properties, excellent flame resistance, solvent resistance, and good thermal stability. The activati…
The influence of a β-diketone on the already observed anomalous behavior of preheated metal stearates as stabilizers for PVC has been evaluated. During normal stabilization procedure, the addition of diketones reduce the stabilization times, but the pretreatment of the mixture of metal soaps or of the individual zinc…
Three series of poly(aryl ether sulfone)s (PAESs) containing the phthalazinone moiety in the polymer backbone were synthesized by solution polycondensation of bis(4-chlorophenyl) sulfone with three commercial bisphenols and 4-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-2,3-phthalazin-1-one. Bisphenol-A, hydroquinone, and bis(4-hydroxyphenyl) s…
