We report on the synthesis of phosphonic acid functionalized mesoporous organosilicas (MES-PA) with bimodal nanostructure by a postsynthesis treatment method. Phosphonate ester functionalized mesoporous organosilicas (MES-P) were first synthesized by one-step cocondensation of 1,2-bis(trimethoxysilyl)ethane (BTME) and…

We have used the pair distribution function (PDF) method to gain insight into the mechanism of contraction of zeolite chabazite. Using this method we followed how the interatomic distances of the local structure changed with temperature. By optimization of the structure by free energy minimization and using the Revers…

The amorphous calcium carbonate (ACC) hemispheres were deposited on the mica and poly(diallyldimethylammonium chloride) modified surface. The form of the ACC deposit on the substrates can be controlled by modifying the substrate surface, the introduction of additives, or both. It demonstrated that substrates (insolubl…

Porous ceramics are of great interest for filtration, catalysis, and reactive separation processes. Performance in these applications is highly dependent on features such as pore size distribution and connectivity and wall composition. Here, we describe a method allowing the rational design and synthesis of mesoporous…

High-field electron paramagnetic resonance spectra were collected at several frequencies for a single crystal of [Zn3.91Ni0.09(hmp)4(dmb)4Cl4] (1), where dmb is 3,3-dimethyl-1-butanol and hmp- is the monoanion of 2-hydroxymethylpyridine. This crystal is isostructural to [Ni4(hmp)4(dmb)4Cl4] (2), which has been charact…

In considering the relaxation of segments in a blend whose components have reasonably disparate glass transition temperatures, local concentration fluctuations and density fluctuations each play a role. The result is a distribution of environments around a given segment in the blend, which translates into a distributi…

We report on the successful synthesis of silver sulfide (Ag(2)S) nanowires by a simple and mild gas-solid reaction approach. For the nanowire synthesis, a preoxidized silver substrate is exposed to an atmosphere of an O(2)/H(2)S mixture at room temperature or slightly above. The resulting Ag(2)S nanowires are phase pu…

We report the study on the unique driving forces of the self-assembly of fully hydrophilic, soluble {Mo72Fe30} macroanions into single-layer, vesicle-like "blackberry" structures in water and mixed solvents. The hydrophobic interaction that is responsible for the vesicle formation of amphiphilic surfactants does not c…

We demonstrate an alternative path for achieving high transconductance organic transistors in spite of relatively large source to drain distances. The improvement of the electronic characteristic of such a scheme is equivalent to a 60-fold increase in mobility of the underlying organic semiconductor. The method is bas…
