Multicolor fluorescent liquid crystal displays (LCDs) are proposed. The twisted nematic (TN) cell containing a dichroic fluorescent dye is utilized as a UV shutter, a polarization switch and an active emitter. We describe two fluorescent LCD modes of different stacking order of the fluorescent TN cell, alternative flu…

The use of depleted uranium dioxide (DUO2) particulates as fill material for repository waste packages (WPs) containing light-water reactor (LWR) spent nuclear fuel (SNF) was investigated. A repository WP would be loaded with SNF, and small DUO2 particulates (0.5 to 1.0 mm) would be added to fill the void space inside…

The double-bridged tetraselenafulvalenophanes (TSF-phanes, 4) were efficiently synthesized by a new method using the deprotection/realkylation sequence of the TSF bisthiolate building block 7. Electrocrystallization of 4b with the Au(CN)2− counter-anion gave a radical cation salt that showed a very high conductivity o…

Abstract Recent years have seen a growing interest in the direct and indirect roles of organisms, and more explicitly of organic matter, in the crystallization of minerals in sediments. Two bivalve genera form extensive biofilms that are apparently responsible for the growth of a variety of isolated crystals together…

A study is reported of the dependence of the TiSe 2 lattice constants on the concentration of an intercalated metal in various valence states and external pressure. The strain energy and the polaron shift created in the intercalation of TiSe 2 with metals in various valence states have been determined. The position of…

A new qualitative mechanism of pore nucleation and initial stages of porous silicon ( por -Si) growth was proposed. The emphasis was on the charge exchange between Si 2+ ions generated by electrolytic or chemical oxidation of initial silicon (disproportionation reaction). The mechanism eliminates, to a large extent, t…

A previously unreported defect, which is labeled $O3,$ has been observed in the EPR spectrum of synthetic type-IIa diamonds irradiated at 100 K with 2 MeV electrons. This defect was not observed in identical diamonds whose temperature during electron irradiation was \ensuremath{\geqslant}300 K. This center has also be…

A two-dimensional mathematical model for vacuum-contact drying of wood is presented. The moisture and heat equations are based on the water potential concept whereas the pressure equation is formulated considering unsteady state conservation equation of dry air. Most of the model parameters were determined during inde…

The reaction by which kaolinite transforms to I-S has been studied by SEM and TEM using core samples from the Salton Sea Scientific Drilling Project. Kaolinite is abundant from the surface to a depth of ∼300 m (∼115°C), decreasing in abundance and becoming undetectable at a depth of ∼500 m (∼160°C), with a concomitant…

The effects of Fe doping in ${\mathrm{La}}_{0.67}{\mathrm{Sr}}_{0.33}{\mathrm{CoO}}_{3}$ has been studied by the measurements of magnetic, electrical transport, and magnetoresistance properties. It is found that no apparent structure change is introduced by Fe doping up to $x=0.3.$ But the Curie temperature ${T}_{c}$…

Structures of various phases that appear in antiferroelectric liquid crystals can be described within a simple discrete phenomenological model of antiferroelectric liquid crystals, which for the smectic-C-alpha (SmC(alpha)) phase suggests a short-pitch helicoidal structure. In a paper presented here the same model is…
