In the last decade, the progress of protein crystallography allowed several protein structures to be solved at a resolution higher than 0.9 A. Such studies provide researchers with important new information reflecting very fine structural details. The signal from these details is very weak with respect to that corresp…
The reaction between Mn(6)L(12) and Mg(6)L(12) (L = N,N-diethylcarbamate) results in isolation of heteronuclear complexes Mn(n)Mg(6)(-)(n)L(12). A series was prepared with different doping factors n by varying the Mn/Mg ratio in the crystallization solutions. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction shows that MnMg(5)L(12) is…
Layered birnessite-type manganese oxide inserts alkylamines (decylamine–octadecylamine) by ion-exchange and intercalation mechanisms and the concomitant expansion is compatible with formation of a head-to-tail layer of interdigitated amine. The structural arrangement of the MnO2–alkylamine mesophases is sensitive to t…
The common classification of twinning into the four categories of twinning by merohedry (complete and exact overlap of the lattices of the twinned crystals), pseudomerohedry (complete but approximate overlap), reticular merohedry (partial but exact overlap) and reticular pseudomerohedry (partial and approximate overla…
In this paper we describe the facile synthesis of gold nanocrystals of variable morphology using aqueous foam as a template. The aqueous foams are formed by bubbling an aqueous solution of AuCl−4 ions electrostatically complexed with the surfactant cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB). The gold ions in the stable foa…
The stability of alumina-pillared montmorillonite clays, prepared at various Al/clay ratios, was investigated by compaction at various pressures. The physical properties of the pillared clays, before and after compaction, were studied by powder XRD and nitrogen sorption. We found that the Al/clay ratio used to prepare…
For poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) melts containing lithium perchlorate (LiClO 4 ), angular frequency ω dependence of the dynamic dielectric properties under steady shear flow was measured using a rheodielectric instrument. The instrument also enabled measurements of the dielectric properties in the quiescent state as wel…
Comb polymers were produced in a two-step synthesis from a bacterial poly[3-hydroxyalkanoate- co -3-hydroxyalkenoate] (PHOU, 1 ) containing 25 mol % terminal side-chain double bonds. The radical addition reaction of 11-mercaptoundecanoic acid to the side-chain alkenes of 1 produced derivative 2 containing thioether bo…
Smectic montmorillonite clay was modified via cation exchange with ammonium salts of poly(oxypropylene)−polyamines (400, 3000, and 5000 M w ). Unusually wide silicate basal spacing (up to 80 Å) and high organic contents (up to 75 wt %) were observed when a 5000 M w amine was used as the intercalating agent. Moreover,…
High resolution transmission electron microscopy and field emission scanning electron microscopy are used to provide direct evidence for the solid-state transformations from cubic MCM-48 to lamellar mesophases. The structural change from MCM-41 to MCM-48 and MCM-50 with temperature is described in this report. Initial…

Heat-induced structural transformation in nanodiamond of diameter approximately 1.4 nm is investigated by tight-binding molecular dynamics simulations using the environment-dependent tight-binding carbon potential. The nanodiamond is found to transform into a tube-shaped fullerene via annealing. Three interesting mech…
We report a single step preparation of monodisperse fluorescent poly(methyl)methacrylate (PMMA) lattices cross-linked with ethylene glycol dimethacrylate with radii in the range 150-1000 nm using dispersion polymerization. The particles are applied as fluorescent cores in core-shell PMMA particles for confocal microsc…
To understand the role of electron-phonon interaction in superconducting ${\mathrm{MgCNi}}_{3}$ we have performed density-functional based linear response calculations of its lattice dynamical properties. A large coupling constant $\ensuremath{\lambda}=1.51$ is predicted and contributing phonons are identified as disp…
Exposure of heavily B-doped $(2\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}{10}^{19}--4\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}{10}^{20}{\mathrm{cm}}^{\ensuremath{-}3})$ diamond to a deuterium plasma results in the formation of passive B-D complexes which are bound with a dissociation barrier of 2.5 eV. In heavily doped material ther…
Two soft chemical processes enabling the low-temperature synthesis of γIII-CoOOH are reported. Both processes consist of an oxidation reaction of αII-Co(OH) 2 performed either in dry conditions (ozonation) or in solution. The γIII-CoOOH phase is usually prepared using a ceramic step process, which hinders its synthesi…
Hexagonal nanocrystalline Fe2P has been synthesized via a solvothermal route at a relatively low temperature of 180 °C. X-Ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectra (XPS) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) were used to investigate the phase, composition, and morphology of the final crystallized product…
A combination of transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM) revealed that a secondary ammonium hydrochloride of a peptidic lipid, in which an l -prolyl- l -prolyl- l -proline fragment is coupled with an l -glutamate derivative carrying two long alkyl chains, self-assembles in water to for…
Four kinds of 1:1 and 1:3 salts of 3-[4-(trimethylammonio)phenyl]-1,5-diphenyl-6-oxoverdazyl radical cation ([1](+)) and its mono- and dimethyl derivatives ([2](+) and [3](+)) with Ni(dmit)(2) anions (dmit = 1,3-dithiol-2-thione-4,5-dithiolate) ([1](+)[Ni(dmit)(2)](-) (4), [2](+)[Ni(dmit)(2)](-) (5), [3](+)[Ni(dmit)(2…
