Functional mimics of a photosynthetic antenna-reaction center complex comprising five bis(phenylethynyl)anthracene antenna moieties and a porphyrin-fullerene dyad organized by a central hexaphenylbenzene core have been prepared and studied spectroscopically. The molecules successfully integrate singlet-singlet energy…
We compare numerical and experimental results exploring the behaviour of liquid drops moving across a surface patterned with hydrophobic and hydrophilic stripes. A lattice Boltzmann algorithm is used to solve the hydrodynamic equations of motion of the drops allowing us to investigate their behaviour as the stripe wid…
We report high resolution Compton scattering measurements on an Al$_{97}$Li$_3$ disordered alloy single crystal for momentum transfer along the [100], [110] and [111] symmetry directions. The results are interpreted via corresponding KKR-CPA (Korringa-Kohn-Rostoker coherent potential approximation) first principles co…
Needle-shaped atom probe specimens containing a single grain boundary were produced using the focused ion beam (FIB) of a dual-beam FIB/SEM (scanning electron microscope) system. The presented specimen preparation approach allows the unprecedented study of a grain boundary which is well characterised in its crystallog…
A characteristic feature of the state-of-the-art of real-space methods in electronic structure calculations is the diversity of the techniques used in the discretization of the relevant partial differential equations. In this context, the main approaches include finite-difference methods, various types of finite-eleme…
Abstract A new class of highly fluorescent, photostable, and magnetic core/shell nanoparticles in the submicrometer size range has been synthesized from a modified Stöber method combined with the layer‐by‐layer (LbL) assembly technique. Luminescent magnetic nanoparticles are prepared via two main steps. The first step…
Titanium metal was first discovered by the English chemist William Gregor in 1971 in the black magnetic sand ilmenite, and the metal was named “titanium” after the titans of Greek mythology, a symbol of power and strength [1]. Titanium is the fourth-most-abundant metal in the Earth’s crust, the other three being alumi…
Abstract The preparation of a new ferrocene functionalised regioregular head‐to‐tail poly(3‐alkylthiophene) is presented. The polymer was obtained by post‐modification of a regioregular head‐to‐tail poly[3‐(6‐bromohexyl)thiophene] polymer and full functionalisation was achieved. The polymer is fully soluble in common…
Nanocrystalline Sm 2 O 3 and Sm 2 O 3 –MgO powders have been prepared by spray pyrolysis of aqueous precursor solutions containing citric acid as a complexant. Synthesized powders consist of hollow spheres with thin shells. The two‐phase samples exhibit an improved microstructural stability compared with pure Sm 2 O 3…
For colloid-polymer systems confined in one-dimensional channels, the diffusion of the colloidal particles is obtained by tracking individual particles using enhanced video microscopy and digital image analysis. For short times, the diffusion is normal, of the Fickian type, with mean-squared displacement varying linea…
The dynamics of two nematic liquid crystals, 4-(trans-4(')-n-octylcyclohexyl)isothiocyanatobenzene and 4-(4-pentyl-cyclohexyl)-benzonitrile, are investigated as a function of temperature both in the homeotropically aligned nematic phase and in the isotropic phase using optical heterodyne-detected optical Kerr effect e…
Abstract Novel amic acid diamines (AADs) (2‐carboxyterephthalamido‐bis(alkyl or aryl amine)s, H 2 NXNH(O)CC 6 H 3 (COOH)C(O)NHXNH 2 , where X is magnified image were synthesized by reacting trimellitic anhydride chloride with aromatic or aliphatic diamines in dimethylformamide at 5–10 °C. Poly(amide imide)s (P…
We performed broadband dielectric measurements of a polyethyleneglycol-water mixture in the frequency range between 10 GHz and 1 microHz and the temperature range between 300 and 133 K. One relaxation process is observed throughout the whole temperature range. The temperature dependence of the relaxation time clearly…
Different types of angular magnetoresistance oscillations in quasi-one-dimensional layered materials, such as organic conductors (TMTSF)2X, are explained in terms of Aharonov-Bohm interference in interlayer electron tunneling. A two-parameter pattern of oscillations for generic orientations of a magnetic field is visu…
Abstract Calcium‐containing poly(urethane‐ester)s (PUEs) were prepared by reacting diisocyanate (HMDI or TDI) with a mixture of calcium salt of mono(hydroxybutyl)phthalate [Ca(HBP) 2 ] and hydroxyl‐terminated poly(1,4‐butylene glutarate) [HTPBG 1000 ], using di‐ n ‐butyltin‐dilaurate as catalyst. About six calcium‐con…
SUMMARIES The brittle-paper problem, i.e. the acid-catalyzed decay of cellulose originating from the invention of alum-rosin sizing at the beginning and of wood as a raw material for papermaking in the middle of the 19 th century, has challenged chemists and technicians to search for remedies. Since the beginning of r…
Abstract Summary: In this paper, the graft of poly(propylene) fiber with acrylic acid is investigated. The effects of grafting temperature, monomer concentration, and grafting time on the grafting degree of acrylic acid onto poly(propylene) fiber are discussed. In contrast to the conventional method of determining the…
We have investigated methods to increase the efficiency of piezoelectric micromachined ultrasonic transducers (pMUTs). pMUTs are driven by a thin piezoelectric layer on a Si membrane. The efficiency of pMUTs can be increased using a film with better ferroelectric properties. We have used Zn, Sr, and Y doping on PZT‐ba…
A series of La0.67(Ca0.65Ba0.35)0.33MnO3∕Pdx composites were synthesized using a sol-gel method followed by a conventional solid-state reaction route. The results show that the resistivity of the composites decreases dramatically with Pd addition, while the room-temperature magnetoresistance (MR) increases remarkably.…
In this work, TiO2 deposition on RuO2 nanorods with reactive sputtering was studied. The TiO2 deposition was performed in situ after the RuO2 nanorod deposition at the same substrate temperature of 450 °C. The morphology examination and structure analysis have indicated a uniform and pure rutile TiO2 deposition on RuO…
