A neutron scattering study of the Mott-Hubbard insulator ${\mathrm{LaTiO}}_{3}$ ( ${T}_{N}\phantom{\rule{0ex}{0ex}}=\phantom{\rule{0ex}{0ex}}132\phantom{\rule{0ex}{0ex}}\mathrm{K}$) reveals a spin wave spectrum that is well described by a nearest-neighbor superexchange constant $J\phantom{\rule{0ex}{0ex}}=\phantom{\ru…
Neutron scattering has been used to study the nature of the ferromagnetic transition in a single crystal of the perovskite La0. 7Ca0.3MnO3. Diffuse scattering from lattice polarons develops as the Curie temperature is approached from below, along with short range polaron correlations that are consistent with stripe fo…
The temperature variation of the resistivity $\ensuremath{\rho}$ and specific heat $C$ have been measured for prototypical half-metallic ferromagnets, ${R}_{0.6}\mathrm{Sr}{}_{0.4}{\mathrm{MnO}}_{3}$, by controlling the one-electron bandwidth $W$. We have found variations in the temperature scalings of $\ensuremath{\r…
Theory of electrical spin injection from a ferromagnetic (FM) metal into a normal (N) conductor is presented. We show that tunnel contacts (T) can dramatically increase spin injection and solve the problem of the mismatch in the conductivities of a FM metal and a semiconductor microstructure. We also present explicit…
The influence of a c(2x2) ordered interface alloy of 3d transition metals at the ferromagnet/nonmagnet interface on interlayer exchange coupling (IXC), the formation of quantum well states (QWS) and the phenomenon of Giant MagnetoResistance is investigated. We obtained a strong dependence of IXC on interface alloy for…
A recent letter by Xue et al. (PRL v.83, 1235 ('99)) reports a Fermi-Liquid (FL) angle resolved photoemission (ARPES) lineshape for quasi one-dimensional Li0.9Mo6O17, contradicting our report (PRL v.82, 2540 ('99)) of a non-FL lineshape in this material. Xue et al. attributed the difference to the improved angle resol…
We present a theory of spin and orbital states in Mott insulator LaTiO3. The spin-orbital superexchange interaction between d(1)(t(2g)) ions in cubic crystal suffers from a pathological degeneracy of orbital states at the classical level. Quantum effects remove this degeneracy and result in the formation of the cohere…
With a conventional lens sharpness of the image is always limited by the wavelength of light. An unconventional alternative to a lens, a slab of negative refractive index material, has the power to focus all Fourier components of a 2D image, even those that do not propagate in a radiative manner. Such "superlenses" ca…
Impregnation of low-density polyethylene (LDPE) with styrene using supercritical (SC) CO 2 as the swelling agent was studied at 35 °C in a pressure range from 90 to 160 bar. The concentration of styrene in the fluid phase ranged from 0 to 1.668 mol/L. The soaking time varied from 4 to 36 h. In the presence of azobis(i…
Dilute blends of two guest monodisperse n -alkanes one, n -C 122 H 246, shorter and one, n -C 246 H 494, longer than the pure host, n -C 162 H 326, have been investigated regarding the kinetics and morphology of both spherulitic growth and cellulation to clarify the related phenomena in polymers. All samples were crys…

A novel synthetic route to heterobifunctional poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) derivatives containing both mercapto and acetal terminal groups was established in this study using anionic ring opening polymerization of ethylene oxide (EO) using potassium 3, 3-diethoxypropanolate (PDP) as the initiator, followed by the succe…
The structure of a single thread of Nephila edulis silk has been studied by in situ X-ray diffraction from a living spider. A systematic increase of orientational order with increasing silking speed up to 40 mm s-1 was observed. Within a few mm from the spinnerets exit, crystalline domains with a beta-poly(L-alanine)…
Readily available N-acylbenzotriazoles 2a-q efficiently acylate aqueous ammonia and primary and secondary amines to give primary, secondary, and tertiary amides in good to excellent yields. The wide applicability of the procedure is illustrated by the preparation of (i) alpha-hydroxyamides from alpha-hydroxy acids and…
We report the magnetotransport properties up to 7 T in the organic highly conducting Langmuir-Blodgett(LB) films formed by a molecular association of the electroactive donor molecule bis(ethylendioxy)tetrathiafulvalene (BEDO-TTF) and stearic acid CH$_3$(CH$_2$)$_{16}$COOH. We show the logarithmic decrease of dc conduc…
The structural interface properties of layered Pt/Ti/SiO2/Si electrodes have been investigated using high-resolution specular and diffuse x-ray reflectivity under grazing angles. Currently this multilayer system represents a technological standard as bottom electrodes for ferroelectric thin film applications. For the…
Well-crystallized layered double hydroxides (LDH) containing Mg 2+ or Ni 2+ as divalent cations and Al 3+ as trivalent cations were obtained either by coprecipitation (cp) or with the sol−gel (sg) method. After calcination, mixed oxide structures were achieved, as shown by XRD. Their acid−base properties were investig…
The structure of nylon 46 lamellar crystals was investigated by molecular dynamics simulations taking into account the occurrence of chain folding. Fold arrangements compatible with adjacent chain reentry were simulated and comparatively analyzed. The C 14 fold consisting of a 14-membered loop with one amide group inc…

Each copper(II) ion is bonded to the nitrogen atoms of one bidentate amox – and one bidentate amoxH (marked *) ligand {Cu–Namine 2.039(4), 2.006(4)* Å and Cu–Noxime 1.975(5), 2.192…
A synthetic strategy is developed to attach semirigid lipophilic sidearms to the 6-positions of bent aromatic tridentate 2,6-bis(benzimidazol-2-yl)pyridine cores to produce U-shaped ligands, L6,7. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) reveals that entropic contributions severely affect the isotropization processes o…
