Abstract Summary: High‐impact polystyrene (HIPS) is a hetero‐phase polymer with the so‐called salami morphology. Salami morphology is formed by a continuous PS phase containing micron‐sized PB domains. PB domains contain submicron‐sized irregular PS occlusions. In our modeling work we addressed several weak points of…

Abstract We study a coarse grained model of cylinder forming diblock copolymers and nano‐particles (NPs) mixture confined between Lennard–Jones hard walls. Two models for non‐selective interactions between monomers and NPs are applied. In the case of purely repulsive interactions between NPs and monomers (athermal cas…

The dielectric and magnetic properties of manganese oxide-coated Fe3O4 nanoparticles (NPs) were measured by the transmission/reflection method in 2-18 GHz. MnOx-coated Fe3O4 NPs were prepared by sol-gel method followed by heat-treating at 300, 400, and 500 °C, respectively. The heat-treated powders were then used as m…

We propose a broadband circular polarizer in the terahertz region using helical metamaterials. The finite difference time domain method was used to design the structure and perform the simulation. By properly selecting the parameters of helical metamaterials, including the radius of wires, number of helix-periods, spa…

Abstract High pressure measurements attracted attention from the Semiconductor Physics community after the discovery of William Paul's Empirical Rule. The technique gained further momentum with the invention of the diamond‐anvils high pressure cell. Since diamond is transparent from near IR to near UV many forms of op…

본 연구는 수계에서 오랜 시간 동안 안정한 생체적합 금 나노입자의 제조에 관한 것으로, 환원제와 안정제의 역할을 동시에 수행하는 폴리에틸렌이민을 이용하여 응집성이 낮은 초미립 폴리에틸렌이민-금 나노입자를 상온의 수용액 상에서 합성하였다. 폴리에틸렌이민-금 나노입자의 평균 입자크기는 8∼12 nm이었고, 수계의 나노콜로이드 상에서 50 nm 내외의 클러스터를 형성하였으며, 매우 뛰어난 안정성을 보였다. 상대적으로 낮은 금속 전구체의 농도에서 나노입자를 제조하였을 때, 입자의 크기가 두드러지게 감소하는 경향을 나타내었다. 폴리에틸렌이민-금 나노입자의 X-선 회절분석 결…

In this study, the redox state of iron in sodium silicate glasses was varied by changing the melting conditions, such as the melting temperature and particle size of iron oxide. The oxidation states of the iron ion were determined by wet chemical analysis and UV-Vis spectroscopy methods. Iron commonly exists as an equ…
