The reaction of Ln(NO3)3(aq) with K3[Fe(CN)6] or K3[Co(CN)6] and 2,2'-bipyridine in water/ethanol led to eight trinuclear complexes: trans-[M(CN)4(mu-CN)2{Ln(H2O)4(bpy)2}2][M(CN)6].8H2O (M = Fe3+ or Co3+, Ln = La3+, Ce3+, Pr3+, Nd3+, and Sm3+). The structures for the eight complexes [La2Fe] (1), [Ce2Fe] (2), [Pr2Fe] (…
Electron field emission from an isolated carbon nanotube (CNT) was performed in situ in a modified scanning electron microscope, over a range of anode to CNT tip separations, D, of 1–60μm. The threshold field required for an emission current of 100 nA was seen to decrease from a value of 42Vμm−1 at an anode to CNT tip…
While there is a large number of recent studies of Au nanocatalysts supported on metal oxides, low-temperature CO oxidation under an acidic environment has not yet been accomplished. Over a novel acidic Al-SBA-15 support, uniformly distributed gold nanoparticles with sizes approximately 2.7 nm were obtained by a succe…
Chalcogenide glasses have attracted considerable attention and found various applications due to their infrared transparency and other optical properties. The As–S–Se chalcogenide glass, with its large glass-formation domain and favorable nonlinear property, is a promising candidate system for tailoring important opti…
Methanol decomposition and oxidation on Pd(111) at millibar pressure were studied by in situ polarization-modulation infrared reflection absorption spectroscopy (PM-IRAS), on-line gas chromatography and pre- and postreaction X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Various dehydrogenation products such as methoxy CH3O,…
We consider a dynamical generalization of the Eshelby problem: the strain profile due to an inclusion or "defect" in an isotropic elastic medium. We show that the higher the oscillation frequency of the defect, the more localized is the strain field around the defect. We then demonstrate that the qualitative nature of…
We present dynamical properties of spin crossover compounds with photomagnetization, proposing a model in which the spin-crossover phenomena and magnetic ordering are incorporated in a unified way. By using this model, the characteristics observed in Prussian blue analogs are qualitatively well reproduced. We investig…
We present a fast Monte-Carlo algorithm for simulating epitaxial surface growth, based on the continuous-time Monte-Carlo algorithm of Bortz, Kalos and Lebowitz. When simulating realistic growth regimes, much computational time is consumed by the relatively fast dynamics of the adatoms. Continuum and continuum-discret…
Dispersion properties of electromagnetic crystals formed by small uniaxial resonant scatterers (magnetic or electric) are studied using the local field approach. The goal of the study is to determine the conditions under which the homogenization of such crystals is possible. Therefore the consideration is limited to t…
We report here that atomic force microscope (AFM) in frictional force mode can be used to detect onset of chain scission and crosslinking in polymeric and macromolecular samples upon irradiation. A systematic investigation to detect chain scission and crosslinking of two elastomers: (1) Ethylene-propylene-diene monome…
We have studied the influence of non-magnetic defects throughout the antiferromagnet Co_{1-y}O on the exchange bias (EB) in epitaxially grown Co_{1-y}O/Co bilayers. These defects are either substitutional or structural (twin boundaries and surface morphology) which both lead to an increase of the EB-field. We find a d…
We consider the scattering of electromagnetic waves by a left-handed cylinder---i.e., by a cylinder fabricated from a left-handed material---in the framework of complex angular momentum techniques. We discuss both the TE and TM theories. We emphasize more particularly the resonant aspects of the problem linked to the…
We suggest a new type of magnetic random access memory (MRAM) that is based on the phenomenon of the planar Hall effect (PHE) in magnetic films, and we demonstrate this idea with manganite films. The PHE-MRAM is structurally simpler than currently developed MRAM that is based on magnetoresistance tunnel junctions (MTJ…
We apply the density-functional technique to determine the lattice constant of GaAs supercells containing Mn_Ga, Mn_int, and As_Ga impurities, and use a linear interpolation to describe the dependence of the lattice constant a of Ga_{1-x}Mn_xAs on the concentrations of these impurities. The results of the supercell ca…
The electronic structure of the A-type antiferromagnetic insulator LaMnO3 is investigated by the GW approximation. The band gap and spectrum are in a good agreement with experimental observation. The on-site/off-site dynamical screened Coulomb interaction on Mn sites is also calculated. Comparison with the results by…
Over the past few years, intensive studies of ultrathin epitaxial films of perovskite oxides have often revealed exciting properties like giant magnetoresistive tunnelling and electric field effects. Spinel oxides appear as even more versatile due to their more complex structure and the resulting many degrees of freed…
The utilization of nanoporous substrates in applications such as selective ion transport, biomolecule separation, seeded templating, and catalysis necessitates the ability to efficiently control pore surface properties. We approached this task by preparing nanoporous polymer monoliths from ABC triblock copolymer precu…
We first fabricated the superhydrophobic film with a water contact angle of 178 degrees based on a perpendicular nanopin fractal structure by a bottom-up process. Until now, only materials with an original water contact angle larger than 90 degrees , which is classified as hydrophobicity, could be used to fabricate th…
A surface roughening method by simple chemical etching was developed for the fabrication of superhydrophobic surfaces on three polycrystalline metals, namely aluminum, copper, and zinc. The key to the etching technique was the use of a dislocation etchant that preferentially dissolves the dislocation sites in the grai…
Abstract The reaction between a cobalt porphycene complex, [CoII(TPrPc)] (TPrPc is a dianion of 2,7,12,17-tetrapropylporphycene), and dioxygen was investigated by means of UV–vis, ESR, and resonance Raman (RR) spectroscopies. These spectra indicate the formation of [CoIII–O2−•]. In the presence of pyridine as an axial…
