The gas-phase catalytic oxidation of benzene was carried out using molecular oxygen as an oxidant over Cu-supported catalysts. Phenol was formed only when using Cu-supported high-silica-type zeolites as catalysts. The Cu-supported H-ZSM-5 zeolite (CuH-ZSM-5) was the most active among those tested. Deep oxidation produ…

Inclusion complexes (ICs) of biodegradable amphiphilic poly(ethylene oxide)−poly[( R )-3-hydroxybutyrate]−poly(ethylene oxide) triblock copolymers with α-cyclodextrin (α-CD) or γ-cyclodextrin (γ-CD) were prepared from aqueous medium. The ICs were characterized by XRD, DSC, 13 C CP/MAS NMR, 1 H NMR, FTIR, and TGA. The…

Electronic properties of reduced (vacuum-annealed) and oxidized (air-annealed) TiO2 films were investigated by in situ conductivity and current–voltage measurements as a function of the ambient oxygen pressure and temperature, and by ex situ surface photovoltage spectroscopy. The films were quite conductive in the red…

Abstract Polypyrrole–Polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA + PPy) composite films were prepared electrochemically by means of codeposition at constant potential. The films were characterized by using Infrared spectroscopy, wide‐angle X‐ray diffraction analysis, and scanning electron microscopy. The appearance of standard and s…

Mineral deposits in land-based woodlice (crustacea, Porcellio scaber) were analysed by high-resolution X-ray diffraction, X-ray absorption spectroscopy (EXAFS) and infrared microscopy. Calcium carbonate is stored within the first four anterior sternites before changing the cuticle (shell). These deposits consist of fu…

It is well known that ZnO generally has the wurtzite structure. We report the growth of both hexagonal and cubic ZnO on Pt(111)/Ti/SiO2/Si substrate by a solution deposition. The wurtzite structure of ZnO film is enhanced up to the annealing temperature of 600 °C, and disappeared for annealing temperatures above 700 °…

The transmission characteristics of two waveguides, one carrying a forward, the other a backward magneto-inductive wave, are investigated. The experimental results obtained are compared with the theoretical predictions. It is shown that there is excellent agreement for the frequency dependence of the propagation coeff…

Y 2 O 3 : Eu nanotubes were fabricated by a surfactant assembly mechanism. The tubular structure was characterized by transmission electron microscopy. Under an ultraviolet-light excitation, the nanotubes show a relatively intense emission peak at 618 nm besides the 610 nm peak, different from that of single Y2O3:Eu n…

An analysis of the optical response of a triangular-shaped photonic band-gap prism is presented. Numerical simulations have been performed in the framework of multiple-scattering theory, which is applied considering spot illumination to avoid diffraction effects. First of all, refractive properties in the frequency ra…

First-principles calculation and anharmonic dynamical theory were used in sequence to explain a large excess heat capacity observed in yttria-stabilized zirconia in comparison with the additive rule value. It is found that the excessive shape of heat capacity decays gradually with the Y$_{2}$O$_{3}$ doping when the nu…

We study the coupled rotation-vibration levels of a hydrogen molecule in a confining potential with cylindrical symmetry. We include the coupling between rotations and translations and show how this interaction is essential to obtain the correct degeneracies of the energy level scheme. We applied our formalism to stud…

We have analyzed the properties of a noncollinear magnetic phase obtained in the mean-field analysis of the model of two coupled Heisenberg subsystems. The domain of its existence and stability is narrow and depends on the ratio between the averaged over nearest neighbours microscopic exchange parameters.

An empirical potential with fluctuating charges is proposed for modelling (MgO)_n clusters in both the molecular (small n) and bulk (n->infty) regimes. Vectorial polarization forces are explicitely taken into account in the self-consistent determination of the charges. Our model predicts cuboid cluster structures, in…

We have studied the problem of phase stability in NiPt alloy system. We have used the augmented space recursion based on the TB-LMTO as the method for studying the electronic structure of the alloys. In particular, we have used the relativistic generalization of our earlier technique. We note that, in order to predict…
