Bacterial cellulose (BC) gels produced by Acetobacter xylinum were used as model substrates for studying xylan assembly. The assembly of xylan onto BC surfaces was carried out by exposing BC films to xylan solutions under autoclave treatments. The BC surfaces were found to retain significantly higher amounts of xylan…
A method to implement the many-body Green function formalism in the GW approximation for infinite non periodic systems is presented. It is suitable to treat systems of known ``asymptotic'' properties which enter as boundary conditions, while the effects of the lower symmetry are restricted to regions of finite volume.…
We have investigated the charge carrier transport in organic molecular semiconductors. It has been found that mobility is a function of electric field and temperature due to hopping conduction. Several theoretical models for charge transport in disordered solids have been debated over the role of spatial and energetic…
Cu-doped type-I germanium clathrate can exhibit dilute magnetism, including ferromagnetism, antiferromagnetism, and metamagnetic transitions up to 90 K. 63Cu NMR measurements confirm that these transitions are due to a dilute composition of magnetic defects coupled by conduction electrons, behavior similar to that of…
We consider the electronic and magnetic properties of nanographite ribbon with zigzag edges under the periodic or Moebius boundary conditions. The zigzag nano-graphite ribbons possess edge localized states at the Fermi level which cause a ferrimagnetic spin polarization localized at the edge sites even in the very wea…
Epitaxial ZnO thin films doped with 7% Mn have been made by reactive rf magnetron sputtering onto (112_0) sapphire substrates at 400 °C. X-ray diffraction measurements reveal that the Zn0.93Mn0.07O film has a (0001) wurtzite single-crystal structure with a rocking curve width of 0.98°. UV–VIS absorption spectra show a…
We describe the magnetic properties of gold-coated iron nanoparticles, and the effects of low pH and heat treatment. Acicular iron and spherical iron based nanoparticles were coated with a thin layer of gold. The morphology and magnetic properties of magnetic particles were examined using transmission electron microsc…
In this study, different weight fractions of multiwalled carbon nanotubes were dispersed in epoxy to produce toughened adhesives. The reinforced adhesives were used to bond the graphite fibre/epoxy composite adherends. Single lap joint samples were prepared and the average shear strengths were experimentally measured.…
We report on the epitaxial growth of wide-band-gap cubic-phase MgxZn1−xO thin films on Si(100) by pulsed-laser deposition and fabrication of oxide-semiconductor-based ultraviolet photodetectors. The challenges of large lattice and thermal expansion mismatch between Si and MgxZn1−xO have been overcome by using a thin S…
The length and the spacing of carbon nanotube (CNT) films are varied independently to investigate their effect on the field-emission characteristics of the vertically aligned CNT films grown by plasma-enhanced hot filament chemical vapor deposition using pulsed-current electrochemically deposited catalyst particles. I…
Extraordinary magnetostrictive behavior has been observed in Fe-Ga alloys with concentrations of Ga between 4% and 27%. λ100 exhibits two peaks as a function of Ga content. At room temperature, λ100 reaches a maximum of 265 ppm near 19% Ga and 235 ppm near 27% Ga. For compositions between 19% and 27%, λ100 drops sharp…
To explain the unusual stability of undercooled liquids against crystallization, Frank hypothesized that the local structures of undercooled liquids contain a significant degree of icosahedral short-range order, which is incompatible with long-range periodicity. We present here the first direct experimental demonstrat…
We study the diffraction patterns of a one-dimensional Fibonacci chain from quasiperiodic pulse trains. We find a single prominent peak when the dynamics of the incident wave matches the arrangement of the scatterers, that is, when the pulse train and the scatterers are in resonance. The maximum diffraction angle and…
cis oder trans? – beides! Zwei Typen dimerer PtII-Komplexe mit invertierten Porphyrinliganden wurden hergestellt und durch Röntgenstrukturanalyse eindeutig charakterisiert (siehe Bild). In beiden Komplexen bindet ein invertiertes Porphyrin über das äußere Stickstoffatom sowie das ortho-Kohlenstoffatom einer meso-Arylg…
The effect of the spatial distribution of hydrophobic surface residues on the adsorption of a weakly hydrophobic polymer to proteins has been examined using a coarse-grain model solved by Monte Carlo simulations. A given number of surface sites were distributed randomly on the protein surface subjected to a distance c…
The quantum oscillatory effect and superconductivity in a non-tetrachalcogenafulvalene (TCF) -structure-based organic superconductor $\ensuremath{\beta}\ensuremath{-}(\mathrm{B}\mathrm{D}\mathrm{A}\ensuremath{-}\mathrm{T}\mathrm{T}\mathrm{P}{)}_{2}{\mathrm{SbF}}_{6}$ are studied. Here the Shubnikov--de Haas effect and…
A heterometallic tetranuclear cluster resulting from an unprecedented metal–metal interaction is described in which a 14-electron PdL2 fragment is bonded to a Fe-Hg-Fe chain through helically arranged diphenylphosphanylmethane ligands (see picture), along which it exhibits an oscillating motion. The cluster exhibits a…
In this Communication, we report the first example of photoswitching of a ferroelectric SmC* liquid crystal based on a photoinduced sign inversion of the spontaneous polarization (PS) induced by a single chiral dopant. This is achieved without concomitant destabilization of the SmC* phase using the "ambidextrous" dopa…
We study the structure and stability of closed-ring carbon nanotubes using a theoretical model based on the Brenner-Tersoff potential. Many metastable structures can be produced. We focus on two methods of generating such structures. In the first, a ring is formed by geometric folding and is then relaxed into minimum…
A new o -PANI- co - p -PANI copolymer was prepared in order to allow for the introduction of solubilizing and function-enhancing substituents on the conducting polymer backbone without concomitant loss of conductivity. An urea-protected trimeric aniline macromonomer with para − ortho − para connectivity and bromine en…
