An atmospheric pressure non-equilibrium plasma (APNEP) developed in the UK by EA Technology Ltd is currently being investigated in collaboration with the University of Surrey. Of the many applications of surface modification that can be induced using plasmas, adhesion enhancement is one of the most commercially import…
An atmospheric pressure non-equilibrium plasma (APNEP) has been developed in the UK by EA Technology Ltd and is currently being investigated in collaboration with the University of Surrey. The main focus is the use of atmospheric pressure plasmas to modify the surfaces of commercially important polymers including poly…
The C' position of the C-capping box is the second residue outside of the helix. Statistical analysis of residue distribution at the C' position in the alpha-helices' C-capping box showed that different amino acid residues occur with different probabilities, with the strongest preference being for glycine. To understa…
Abstract The water uptake of three polyurethane adhesives was studied by an in situ fluorescence method applying extrinsic fluorescent probes. The measurements were made in water immersion at 50 and 80°C, and in water vapor at 50°C. An intensity ratio method was applied, in which ratios of the highest and lowest inten…
The formation, reduction, and dissolution processes of passive films formed on Ni, Ni-9 atom % Cr, and Ni-18 atom % Cr alloys in deaerated pH 2, 0.1 M sulfuric acid were studied using in situ X-ray absorption near-edge structure during potential stepping from passive to cathodic or transpassive potentials. At passive…
Abstract A two‐step method, that is, polyamic acid formation with subsequent curing, was used to synthesize six kinds of polyimides. Dielectric constants and surface energies were investigated to determine the nature of the fluorinated and nonfluorinated polyimides. The dielectric constant decreased from 3.3 (at 100 k…
Abstract To improve the interfacial adhesion between evaporated copper film and low‐density polyethylene (LDPE) film, the surface of LDPE films was modified by treating with chromic acid [K 2 Cr 2 O 7 /H 2 O/H 2 SO 4 (4.4/7.1/88.5)]/oxygen plasma. Chromic‐acid‐etched LDPE was exposed to oxygen plasma to achieve a high…
Abstract Chaotic mixing of immiscible binary components was recently used in a continuous flow process to obtain extruded films with very many internal layers. Where interfacial tension is small, individual layer thicknesses can be only tens of nanometers and many thousands of continuous or broken layers can be formed…
Transport properties of an epitaxial film of La_0.7Sr_0.3MnO_3 (LSMO), deposited epitaxially on a LaAlO_3 bi-crystal substrate having a misorientation angle of 9.2 deg., have been studied. The film was patterned into a meander containing 100 grain boundaries. The resistivity of the sample exhibits two components; one…
We investigate the propagation of transverse elastic waves in crumpled media. We set up the wave equation for transverse waves on a generic curved, strained surface via a Langrangian formalism and use this to study the scaling behaviour of the dispersion curves near the ridges and on the flat facets. This analysis sug…
We present first principles calculations of the magnetic moments and magnetic anisotropy energies of small Fe, Co and Ni clusters on top of a Ag(100) surface as well as the exchange-coupling energy between two single adatoms of Fe or Co on Ag(100). The calculations are performed fully relativistically using the embedd…
Photovoltaic response and optical spectra of lithium niobate crystals (LN) grown from K_2O-containing melt and/or doped with Mg and Fe have been studied. It has been found that growing of LN crystals at the presence of K_2O-flux, Mg-doping and increasing of Li/Nb ratio have influence on the physical properties of the…
First-principles total energy calculations on tetragonal MnAu superlattices are performed by means of the self-consistent full-potential linearized augmented-plane-wave method under the generalized gradient approximation. It is shown that the stability of the spin configuration strongly depends on the lattice distorti…
The synthesis of poly(vinyl ether)s or polyvinylcarbazole under the conditions of constricted geometry can be achieved by means of cationic host-guest polymerisation of the corresponding monomers in the pores of MCM-41 (pore diameter 3.6 nm), MCM-48 (pore diameter 2.4 nm) and in nanoporous glasses (Gelsil with a pore…
Surprisingly stable is the first example of a binary six π electron aromatic SN cation with an N3 unit, S2N3+ (see picture). It can be isolated on a macroscopic scale when a large counter anion is present. The structure determined by X-ray investigations is in good agreement with theoretical data. The unequivocal iden…
Solvent-induced self-assembly of oligomer-substituted shape-persistent macrocycles leads to the formation of cylindrical aggregates, which have been fully characterized in solution. These aggregates, bound by nonspecific interactions, can be described as supramolecular hollow polymer brushes.
We prepared for Mott–Hubbard-type perovskite La0.5Sr0.5TiO3+δ thin films under an oxygen reduced environment, 5% H2/Ar. Control of the partial pressure during deposition could change the conductivity of the films, and induces a metal–insulator transition. In addition, we observed an excellent transparency at visible l…
Auch ohne π-Konjugation gelingen Energiewanderung und -transfer über große Entfernungen: Schnell (kENT=1.04×109 s−1) und effizient (ΦEXT=71 %) ist der Energietransfer von den 28 photoangeregten Zinkporphyrin-Einheiten auf die zentrale freie Porphyrinbase in einer großen, sternenförmigen dendritischen Multiporphyrin-An…
The temporal evolution of an anisotropic reflection grating produced in a holographic polymer-dispersed liquid crystal film is investigated. We find that this type of grating is preceded in time by an isotropic concentration grating, and that the development of the anisotropic grating can be delayed until several seco…
We present results of first-principles calculations of the elastic constants and other mechanical properties of Ti3SiC2. This knowledge is important from a technological point of view, since the material shows promising characteristics, such as a combined metallic and ceramic appearance. We also confirm a recent exper…
