We present momentum-dependent measurements of the loss function of bulk samples of concentric-shell fullerenes using electron-energy-loss spectroscopy in transmission. It is shown that the $\ensuremath{\pi}$ and $\ensuremath{\pi}+\ensuremath{\sigma}$ plasmons of these so-called carbon onions exhibit a significant mome…

Abstract Constitutive equations are derived for the nonlinear viscoelastic behavior of amorphous glassy polymers. The model is based on the theory of cooperative relaxation in a version of the trapping concept. Stress–strain relations are applied to fit experimental data for polycarbonate in the sub‐yield and post‐yie…

Reductive homocoupling of chlorobenzenes to the respective biphenyls affords high yields (93–95%), in the presence of catalytic PEG-400 and 0.4 mol % of a recycleable, heterogeneous trimetallic catalyst (4% Pd, 1% Pt, and 5% Bi on carbon). The competing reduction process is minimized. The catalytic cycle is completed…

We have measured and analyzed optical and x-ray-absorption spectra of CdS nanocrystals grown by solid-state reaction in a borosilicate glass, with average crystallite radii from 1.4 to 5 nm. The first (Cd-S) and second (Cd-Cd) neighbor distances are within 0.2% of the bulk values in all cases. We establish an upper bo…

Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) techniques were employed to in situ study the electron-beam induced dehydration of brucite Mg(OH)2. Under the electron beam, the hexagonal platelets of brucite immediately decompose and show a morphological shrinkage of 5% and 10–20% in the a and c directions, respectively. The v…
