We provide a framework for building periodic boundary conditions on the pseudosphere (or hyperbolic plane), the infinite two-dimensional Riemannian space of constant negative curvature. Starting from the common case of periodic boundary conditions in the Euclidean plane, we introduce all the required mathematical noti…
The bichromophoric systems C2-PI, C3-PI, and C3-PPI consisting of corrole and perylene bisimide units and representing one of the rare cases of elaborate structures based on corrole, have been synthesized. Corroles C2 and C3 are, respectively, meso-substituted corroles with 2,6-dichlorophenyl and pentafluorophenyl sub…
We present a theoretical analysis of the phase behavior of colloid-polymer mixtures which applies to all polymer/colloid size ratios $q$. It accounts for the crossover from a constant length scale $R$ (radius of gyration) in the colloid limit (small $q$) to the concentration-dependent correlation length $\ensuremath{\…
We present low-temperature scanning tunneling spectroscopy measurements on Mn acceptors in InAs in comparison with tight-binding calculations. We find a strong (001)-mirror asymmetry of the bound hole wave function close to the (110) surface. In addition, multiple acceptor-related peaks are observed and are attributed…
To obtain an in-depth physical knowledge of the protective barrier stability and uniformity under fire conditions, we prepared highly filled polyamide 6/organoclay nanocomposites and characterized their thermal and flammability properties. The objectives were to identify a critical composition that is needed to form a…
We discuss the importance of different exchange mechanisms like double exchange, p-d exchange and anti-ferromagnetic as well as ferromagnetic superexchange in dilute magnetic semiconductors (DMSs). Based on the coherent potential approximation for the electronic structure of the DMSs we show that the different mechani…
Abstract This manuscript provides a summary of the relatively large body of research on the preparation and characterization of dendrimers containing (1) multiple copies of metallocene residues on their surfaces or (2) a single metallocene residue at their core. Special emphasis is placed on dendrimers functionalized…
We describe the facile production of highly stable foams stabilized solely by cationic polystyrene latex particles. Three model polystyrene latexes were synthesized using either a cationic 2,2'-azobis(2-diisobutyramidine) dihydrochloride (AIBA) or an anionic ammonium persulfate (APS) radical initiator: a 724 +/- 81 nm…
Abstract Polyurethane (PU) polymer was synthesized following a prepolymer mixing process, by polyaddition of isophorone diisocyanate (IPDI), poly(propylene glycol) (PPG), 2‐hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA), and 2,2‐bis(hydroxymethyl)propionic acid (DMPA). The PU anionomer having 2‐ethoxymethacrylate terminal groups wa…
A new polar ammonium tungsten tellurite, (NH 4 ) 2 Te 2 WO 8, has been synthesized and structurally characterized. The material was synthesized hydrothermally, using NH 4 OH, WO 3, and TeO 2 as reagents, and structurally characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. (NH 4 ) 2 Te 2 WO 8 crystallizes in the noncent…
The influence of polymerization on the phase separation of binary immiscible mixtures has been investigated by the dissipative particle dynamics simulations in two dimensions. During polymerization, the bulk viscosity increases, which consequently slows down the spinodal decomposition process. The domain size growth i…
2-Hydroxynicotinic acid (HNA) was grafted by 3-(triethoxysilyl)propyl isocyanate (TEPIC) to achieve the molecular precursor HNA-Si through the hydrogen-transfer nucleophilic addition reaction between the hydroxyl group of HNA and the isocyanate group of TEPIC. Then, a chemically bonded rare-earth/inorganic polymeric h…
We have studied the spin dynamics of a high-mobility two-dimensional electron system in a GaAs/Al_{0.3}Ga_{0.7}As single quantum well by time-resolved Faraday rotation and time-resolved Kerr rotation in dependence on the initial degree of spin polarization, P, of the electrons. By increasing the initial spin polarizat…
Abstract The presented work demonstrates, to the best of our knowledge, for the first time the capability of an aluminium surface to act as an SERS‐active substrate for deep‐UV excitation wavelengths. Copyright © 2007 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
Abstract Polypropylene (PP)/sepiolite (Sep) nanocomposites are prepared by melt compounding in a mini‐extruder apparatus. The often used maleic anhydride‐modified polypropylene (PP‐g‐MA) is compared with two custom‐made functionalized polymers, PP‐acid and the di‐block copolymer PP‐PEO, with respect to the filler disp…
We show that a localization mobility edge can appear around the Fermi energy in graphene by introducing impurities or by producing vacancies in the lattice. The edge appears at the center of the spectrum and not at the band edges, in contrast with the usual picture of localization. Such result is explained by showing…
Neutron scattering experiments have been performed on the ternary rare-earth diborocarbide Ce$^{11}$B$_2$C$_2$. The powder diffraction experiment confirms formation of a long-range magnetic order at $T_{\rm N} = 7.3$ K, where a sinusoidally modulated structure is realized with the modulation vector ${\bm q} = [0.167(3…
Molecular self-assembly has been extensively used for surface modification of metals and oxides for a variety of applications, including molecular and organic electronics. One of the goals of this research is to learn how the electronic properties of these surfaces can be modified by self-assembled monolayers (SAM). H…
We propose a computational method that simplifies drastically the inclusion of spin-orbit interaction in density functional theory implemented on localised atomic orbital basis sets. Our method is based on a well-known procedure for obtaining pseudopotentials from atomic relativistic 'ab initio' calculations and on an…
The band structure of the prototypical charge-transfer insulator NiO is computed by using a combination of an ab initio band structure method and the dynamical mean-field theory with a quantum Monte-Carlo impurity solver. Employing a Hamiltonian which includes both Ni d and O p orbitals we find excellent agreement wit…
