Planarly aligned cholesteric liquid crystals of short pitch were applied by the in-plane electric field. The reorientation of the director, increasing pitch, and flexoelectricity induce the change of transmission. The main effect in this research is due to the director reorientation along the electric field. The flexo…

Nanophosphor of ZnGa 2 O 4 :Eu 3+ and Er 3+ were synthesized by the hydrothermal method. ZnGa 2 O 4 is an intrinsic blue light emitter with a wavelength peak of approximately 608 nm depending on the gallium ratio. A luminescent analysis of the materials shows that the rare earth ions are localized in the defect sites…

Abstract For several decades, the plastic deformation mechanisms of f.c.c. metals under cyclic loading have received considerable attention. The extensive work on this subject has gradually lead to the identification of the physical processes to be included in a formal scheme of fatigue behavior. Accordingly, we propo…

Carbon nanotubes can be grown as forests of aligned fibers on a substrate with a catalyst coated prior to or added during synthesis. A major process interruption can initiate the growth of second and successive layers of forest on top or at the base of the existing layers which are thereby lifted up. We report on the…

The effects of carbon on general and pitting corrosion behaviour of Fe-18Cr-10Mn-(0.33-0.44)N-(0-0.38)C alloys were investigated using potentiodynamic tests. Carbon made the nitrogen-bearing alloys inert and thus promoted general corrosion resistance. These results were supported by experimental findings, such as elev…
