Abstract Polypropylene/clay (PP/clay) nanocomposites were synthesized via intercalative polymerization. The nanostructure of the composites was investigated by wide‐angle X‐ray diffractometry (WAXD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The WAXD patterns of the PP/clay nanocomposites indicated that the character…

Raman spectra of the MgB2 ceramic samples were measured as a function of pressure up to 32 GPa at room temperature. The spectrum at normal conditions contains a very broad peak at ~590 cm-1 related to the E2g phonon mode. The frequency of this mode exhibits a strong linear dependence in the pressure region from 5 to 1…

The question addressed in this paper is that of the influence of the density of dislocations on the spin tunneling in Mn12 clusters. We have determined the variation in the mosaicity of the crystal structure of fresh and thermally treated single crystals of Mn12 by analyzing the widening of low angle X-ray diffraction…

The Kohn-Luttinger envelope-function method is generalized to the case of heterostructures with atomically sharp heterojunctions based on lattice-matched layers of related semiconductors with zinc-blende symmetry. For electron states near the Γpoint in (001) heterostructures the single-band effective-mass equation is…

The van der Waals liquid ortho -terphenyl has long been used as a model system in the study of the glass transition. Motivated by mode-coupling theory, extensive experiments have been undertaken to monitor the onset of structural relaxation on microscopic time- and lengthscales. Using in particular quasielastic neutro…

Fluorescence upconversion experiments were performed on monomer solutions of a number of structurally similar thiacarbocyanine dyes. The results from these time-resolved experiments combined with the data obtained from steady-state absorption and emission and 1 H NMR spectra allowed us to assign the components with di…

Spontaneous pattern formation in hybrid nematic liquid-crystal films on glycerol was studied with both polarized transmission and unpolarized monochromatic reflected light microscopy. These observations reveal that the patterns that are found in 1 to 10-microm-thick films are due to a combination of film topography, g…

Short-wavelength visual pigments (SWS1) have lambda(max) values that range from the ultraviolet to the blue. Like all visual pigments, this class has an 11-cis-retinal chromophore attached through a Schiff base linkage to a lysine residue of opsin apoprotein. We have characterized a series of site-specific mutants at…

Arrays of polypyrrole (Ppy) dots (80−180 nm diameter) have been prepared in a highly parallel fashion. This process is achieved by templating Ppy growth on a 2D surface micelle array, initially formed by the Langmuir−Blodgett (LB) technique. Ppy growth on self-assembled (SA)-based surface micelles produces more comple…
