Abstract Montmorillonite is a promising substitute for aluminum trihydroxide in flame‐retardant polypropylene/aluminum trihydroxide (PP/ATH) composites. Study was made of the partial substitution of organoclay for ATH in PP/ATH composites. The total concentration of filler was kept at 30 wt%. The composites were compa…
Temperature dependence of the minority carrier diffusion length and lifetime in bulk n-type ZnO was studied using electron-beam-induced current and cathodoluminescence techniques. The diffusion length was observed to increase exponentially over the temperature range from 25 °C to 125 °C, yielding activation energy of…
The dynamics of K doping of thin films of semiconducting debundled single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) on a $\mathrm{Si}∕{\mathrm{SiO}}_{2}$ substrate is followed using in situ Raman scattering. Similar to the behavior we observed in the Cs doping of bundled SWNTs, four distinct intervals during doping can be disti…
The temperature dependence of the resistivity of ferromagnetic GaMnAs, as-grown or low-temperature-annealed samples is measured from 2to290K. A resistivity minimum is observed with a corresponding temperature TM around 10K for each sample. Below TM, the resistivity exhibits logarithmic temperature dependence, as αln(T…
A highly constrained [2]rotaxane, constructed in such a way that the tetracationic cyclobis(paraquat-p-phenylene) ring is restricted to reside on a monopyrrolotetrathiafulvalene unit, has been synthesised and characterised. This design allows the deslipping free energy barrier for the tetracationic ring in all three r…
This article discusses the derivation of continuum models that can be used for modelling the inhomogeneous mechanical behaviour of granular assemblies. These so-called kinematically enhanced models are of the strain-gradient type and of the strain-gradient micro-polar type, and are derived by means of homogenizing the…
The dynamics of exciton quenching in a conjugated polymer due to the presence of metal films is analyzed using time-resolved photoluminescence. The quenching is governed by direct radiationless energy transfer to the metal and is further enhanced by diffusion of excitons into the depletion area of the exciton populati…
We describe optical monitoring of the synthesis of gold nanorods (NRs) based on seed-mediated growth in the presence of the soft surfactant template cetyltrimethyilammonium bromide. To separate NRs from spheres and surfactants we fractionated samples in the density gradient of glycerol. The optical properties of NRs w…
Using density functional theory we show that the magnetic coupling of Mn atoms in the nanowires, unlike that in the thin film, is ferromagnetic. This ferromagnetic coupling, brought about due to the confinement of electrons in the radial direction and the curvature of the Mn-doped GaN nanowires' surface, is mediated b…
Besides well-known quantum dots, lanthanide-doped oxide nanocrystals form a new promising class of nanophosphors. Lanthanide vanadate and phosphate nanoparticles are prepared as well-dispersed and highly concentrated colloids by a very simple aqueous route, using competition between precipitation and complexation reac…
The evolution of grain structures in materials is a complex and multiscale process that determines the material's final properties. Understanding the dynamics of grain growth is a key factor for controlling this process. We propose a phenomenological approach, based on a nonlinear, discrete mass transfer equation for…
The high pressure synthesis, structure and magnetic properties of Ca_25Co_22O_56(OH)_28 are reported. The compound has a misfit structure, consisting of double, square calcium oxide hydroxide rock-salt-like layers between hexagonal CoO_2 layers. The misfit compound crystallizes in the monoclinic space group C2/m, and…
Polarization dependence of resonant anomalous surface x-ray scattering (RASXS) was studied for interfaces buried in electrolytes or in high-pressure gas. We demonstrate that RASXS exhibits strong polarization dependence when the surface is only slightly modified by adsorption of light elements such as carbon monoxide…
We present a systematic study of the atomic and electronic structure of the Si(111)-(5x2)-Au reconstruction using first-principles electronic structure calculations based on the density functional theory. We analyze the structural models proposed by Marks and Plass [Phys. Rev. Lett.75, 2172 (1995)], those proposed rec…
Our it ab initio calculations show that spin-orbit coupling is crucial to understand the electronic structure of the Si(557)-Au surface. The spin-orbit splitting produces the two one-dimensional bands observed in photoemission, which were previously attributed to spin-charge separation in a Luttinger liquid. This spin…
Recent photoemission experiments on the Si(553)-Au reconstruction show a one-dimensional band with a peculiar ~1/4 filling. This band could provide an opportunity for observing large spin-charge separation if electron-electron interactions could be increased. To this end, it is necessary to understand in detail the or…
Resonance anomalous surface x-ray scattering (RASXS) technique was applied to electrochemical interface studies. It was used to determine the chemical states of electrochemically formed anodic oxide monolayers on platinum surface. It is shown that RASXS exhibits strong polarization dependence when the surface is signi…
With the aim of investigating the possible integration of opto-electronic devices, epitaxial GaN layers have been grown on Si(111) SOI and on Si/CoSi2/Si(111) using metalorganic chemical vapor deposition. The samples are found to possess a highly oriented wurtzite structure, a uniform thickness and abrupt interfaces.…
The epitaxial system Sm/Co(0001) was studied for Sm coverages up to 1 monolayer (ML) on top of ultrathin Co/W(110) epitaxial films. Two ordered phases were found for 1/3 and 1 ML Sm, respectively. The valence state of Sm was determined by means of photoemission and magnetic properties were measured by magneto-optical…
The problem of plane-wave diffraction on semi-infinite orthorhombic electromagnetic (photonic) crystals of general kind is considered. Boundary conditions are obtained in the form of infinite system of equations relating amplitudes of incident wave, eigenmodes excited in the crystal and scattered spatial harmonics. Ge…
