The novel concept of a “symmetry switch” for spin transfer is proposed. EHT and INDO calculations on a series of iron(III) porphyrin complexes indicate that factors that can contribute to the stability of the intermediate-spin state can be explained clearly with crystal-field theory. A decrease in symmetry causes the…

In situ, time-resolved energy-dispersive X-ray diffraction has been used to investigate the formation of the mesoporous silicates FSM-16 and MCM-41. The data suggest that the silica−surfactant mesophases formed are highly dependent on the reactant medium, the effect of the silica source being one of the main determini…

The formation of grid-type inorganic architectures of [2×2], [3×3], and [4×4] size (depicted here) occurs by self-assembly from lead(II) ions and ligands containing tridentate binding sites. Well-defined inorganic architectures of high complexity may thus be obtained in a single overall step by a spontaneous but contr…

Carbon-encapsulated Sn−Pb nanowires are generated by electrolysis of graphite in molten LiCl containing these metals. SA-EDX analyses indicate a distinctive profile for the metal cores in which Sn predominates at one end and Pb at the other of the individual nanowires; X-ray diffraction measurements reveal that separa…

The formation of SAMs on oxides and semiconductor surfaces has become a significant issue recently in its various technological applications. We report an easy and convenient method for the tailoring of an ITO surface with an amine functional group. A dense self-assembled monolayer of 1,12-diaminododecane was formed o…

Organic molecular Mott insulators, in which carriers are localized as a result of the electron correlation, showed nonlinear electric conduction upon application of a high electric field along the molecular stacking axis. The current-driven low-resistive state of potassium 7,7,8,8-tetracyanoquinodimethanane was stabil…

A Zr−Ce mixed oxide with ca. a 1:1 atomic ratio is prepared by a microemulsion method and studied by X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, and Raman, X-ray photoelectron (XPS) and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopies. The results show the formation of a high surface area material ( S BET…

We show that a simple rate-and-state theory accounts for most features of both time-independent and time-dependent plasticity in a spatially inhomogeneous situation, specifically, a circular hole in a large stressed plate. Those features include linear viscoelastic flow at small applied stresses, strain hardening at l…

A fractal-percolation model describing the stability of foam is studied. In this model, a correspondence is established between the system of branched channels and a fractal tree. In the proposed model, the foam breaks down by a scale-invariant load-transfer mechanism. A formula is obtained for calculating the height…

Many transformers using low Tc or high Tc superconductors have been built and tested, but it is still not clear how to design the volt/turn ratio property. This paper shows one design method, which minimizes total cost including initial cost and running cost. According to the results, the optimized volt/turn will be a…
