We have performed a systematic analysis of the low frequency 1/f-noise in single grain boundary junctions in the colossal magnetoresistance material La_{2/3}Ca_{1/3}MnO_{3-delta}. The grain boundary junctions were formed in epitaxial La_{2/3}Ca_{1/3}MnO_{3-delta} films deposited on SrTiO_3 bicrystal substrates and sho…
LiV_2 O_4 is one of the most puzzling compounds among transition metal oxides because of its heavy fermion like behavior at low temperatures. In this paper we present results for the orbital state and magnetic properties of LiV_2 O_4 obtained from a combination of density functional theory within the local density app…
We compare within an unifying formalism the dynamical properties of modulated and composite aperiodic (incommensurate) crystals. We discuss the concept of inner polarization and we define an inner polarization parameter beta that distinguishes between different acoustic modes of aperiodic crystals. Although this conce…
Completed eukaryotic genomes were screened for medium-chain dehydrogenases/reductases (MDR). In the human genome, 23 MDR forms were found, a number that probably will increase, because the genome is not yet fully interpreted. Partial sequences already indicate that at least three further members exist. Within the MDR…
We develop a quantum theory of the nonlinear interaction between intense surface acoustic waves and electrons of a quantum well in the regime of moving quantum wires and dots. The quantum nonlinear interaction qualitatively differs from the classical one. In a system of electron wires driven by an acoustic wave the so…
Synthetic catalytic scavengers of reactive oxygen species (ROS) may have broad clinical applicability. In previous papers, two salen-manganese complexes, EUK-8 and EUK-134, had superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase activities and prevented ROS-associated tissue injury. This study describes two series of salen-mangan…
We examine the local geometry of a simulated glass-forming polymer melt. Using the Voronoi construction, we find that the distributions of Voronoi volume P(v(V)) and asphericity P(a) appear to be universal properties of dense liquids, supporting the use of packing approaches to understand liquid properties. We also ca…
Abstract Polylactide (PLA)/clay nanocomposites loaded with 3 wt % organomodified montmorillonite and PLA/clay microcomposites containing 3 wt % sodium montmorillonite were prepared by melt blending. We investigated the morphology and thermal properties of the nanocomposites and microcomposites and compared them with u…
Electrospinning for the formation of nanoscale diameter fibers has been explored for high-performance filters and biomaterial scaffolds for vascular grafts or wound dressings. Fibers with nanoscale diameters provide benefits due to high surface area. In the present study we explore electrospinning for protein-based bi…

Abstract A new method of rolling with side constraints was applied to polyethylene. The process relies on the rolling of a material inside a channel formed on the circumference of one roll with another roll having a thickness matching the width of the channel in the first roll. The rolling inside a channel resembles t…
Abstract We investigated the possibility of obtaining high‐density polyethylene (PE) samples with crystals in a broad range of thicknesses. PE samples solidified by slow cooling were subjected to hydrostatic pressure at room temperature and then heated to the region of mobile pseudohexagonal form, without being passed…
Abstract The influence of crystallization conditions on the morphology of the contact layer of high‐density polyethylene crystallized on graphite has been investigated. The characteristic morphology of the polyethylene contact layer consists of striated, ribbonlike structures organized in domains in which the striatio…
Abstract The mechanical behavior of oriented bars of polyethylene obtained by heavy rolling with side constraints was studied. The bars were rolled to a permanent deformation ratio (DR) of up to 8.3. The elastic modulus and ultimate strength measured along the rolling direction increase with increasing DR. For samples…
We demonstrated for the first time the thermo-mechanical processing of the organogels of dibutyllauroyl glutamide as a small molecule gelling agent (SMGA) in a biocompatible solvent, isostearyl alcohol. The study focused on the impact of novel thermomechanical processing parameters such as temperature, strain, and the…
The spin-polarization patterns of a weakly coupled triplet−doublet spin pair are studied in a covalently linked copper (II)−free base porphyrin dimer partially oriented in a liquid crystalline solvent. The triplet−doublet pair is generated in the dimer by either spin−orbit intersystem crossing (ISC) within the free-ba…
The identity of reactive intermediates and of active sites and the details of redox cycles and oxygen removal pathways during NO decomposition on well-characterized Cu−ZSM5 were examined by combining previous spectroscopic and steady-state kinetic studies with measurements of the rate of evolution of NO, N 2 O, NO 2,…
Abstract The crystallization of polymer films in a temperature gradient was simulated. The curvature of lamella growth directions observed experimentally was taken into account. The computer simulation permitted the visualization of the evolution of the spherulitic pattern and also the calculation of the conversion of…
We report a detailed experimental study of the aging of the (initial) random hexagonal close-packed (rhcp) crystals formed in suspensions of hard-sphere colloids near the melting point. By suspending the same colloidal particles in two different mixtures of solvents we are able to tune the strength of the gravitationa…
[structure: see text] Oligothienyl-substituted paracyclophanes bearing alpha-thienyl substituents, which block polymerization at these sites, undergo oxidation to form stable radical cations and dications. Splitting of the first voltammetric oxidation wave of stacked dimers into two single-electron processes correspon…
