We report on molecular-dynamics simulations to determine the steady-state velocity versus temperature relation for (001) solidification and melting of silicon using the Stillinger-Weber potential to model the interactions between the silicon atoms. Down to 250 K of undercooling, the simulation values show good agreeme…
Diagrammatic valence-bond (DVB) theory is extended to dynamic nonlinear susceptibilities of interacting π electrons in Pariser–Parr–Pople (PPP) or other quantum cell models whose correlated ground state ‖G〉 is known. Corrections φ(1)(ω) and φ(2)(ω2,ω1) to ‖G〉 due to oscillating electric fields are found directly as li…
Abstract From an industrial point of view, it is effective to have a relation between process conditions and resulting product properties. In practice there are many possible process conditions, whereas properties are generally interrelated in a complex way. Thus, there is a strong need for a physical understanding of…
A molecular model has been constructed for glycerol and has been applied to a study of clusters and condensed phases by molecular dynamics simulation. Each molecule is regarded as a flexible polar complex of nine mass points (CH and CH2 groups are treated as ‘‘united atoms’’). Periodic arrays stabilize in a close appr…
The transient nematic effect, together with multiple pass technique and optimal temperature effect, was employed to demonstrate high-speed liquid-crystal modulators. As a result, nematic liquid-crystal modulators with frame time less than 50 μs have been achieved in the visible spectral region.
The III-V compound GaAs was studied using energy-dispersive x-ray diffraction with a synchro- tron source up to a pressure of 108 GPa. When the pressure was increased to 16.6 GPa, the GaAs sample transformed from the zinc-blende structure to an orthorhombic structure [GaAs(II)], space group Pmm2, consisting of a primi…
Abstract Composites of polypropylene (PP) or maleic‐anhydride‐modified polypropylene (MPP) with refiner ground pulp (RGP) were prepared under various kneading conditions (mixing temperature, rate of rotation, and mixing time) and evaluated for their tensile strength (σ max ), break elongation (ϵ max ), and Young's mod…
Abstract Wood fibers of aspen in the form of chemithermomechanical pulp (CTMP) and Tembec 6816 have been used as reinforcing fillers in different varieties of polystyrene. The tensile strength, elongation, and energy at maximum point, as well as tensile modulus at 0.1% strain is reported. Also revealed is the optimum…
Various uv and vacuum-uv optical-absorption bands found in as-manufactured high-purity ${\mathrm{SiO}}_{2}$ glass were studied. Two types of absorption bands were found near 5.0 eV, one of which is attributed to the oxygen vacancy (?Si-Si?). The absorption band at 7.6 eV is also found to be caused by the same oxygen v…
The results of a pseudopotential local-orbital calculation on the recently synthesized hybrid of graphite and hexagonal BN, ${\mathrm{BC}}_{2}$N, are presented. Three possible atomic arrangements in the ${\mathrm{BC}}_{2}$N monolayer, representing a variety of nearest-neighbor environments, are studied. For the monola…
The composition dependence of the structural and electronic properties in chalcogenide glasses suggests that there exists a structural phase transition at the average coordination number of 2.67. Materials having smaller coordination numbers are characterized by molecular structures, and otherwise three-dimensional ne…
This book provides a listing of commercially available composite materials from numerous companies.
The dependence of the electrical and optical properties of reactively evaporated indium tin oxide films on substrate temperature and tin concentration has been studied. Films of resistivity as low as 3*10 -4 Omega cm and high visible transparency of about 91% have been obtained at higher deposition temperatures ( appr…
A method has been proposed for exact calculation of the optical parameters n and k of a thin film on a transparent substrate by simultaneously solving the equations for two of the envelopes of the transmission and reflection spectra. The singularity of the solution and the convergency area are proved, and the influenc…
Abstract The compatibility behavior of epoxidized natural rubber (ENR) at two different degrees of epoxidation with hydroxyl‐containing polymeric resins was investigated. These included Novolac and Resole resins, the cured epoxy of bisphenol A (CER), and phenoxy. For each system, compositions covering the complete ran…
Abstract In this study, immiscible blends of HDPE and an amorphous glassy polymer were compatibilized with styrene‐hydrogenated butadiene block copolymers. The glassy phase consisted of either pure PS or a miscible blend of PS and polyether copolymer (PEC); PEC is similar to poly(2,6‐dimethyl‐1,4‐phenylene oxide) (PPO…
The concept of the Institutes for Advanced Optical Technologies developed out of SPIE's desire to foster increased interaction and collaboration among researchers working in emerging optical technologies. The Institutes provide a forum for experts in these areas to analyze and document the state of the art and to poin…
Abstract The kinetics of diffusion of water from different activity vapors and liquid phase have been investigated in glassy amorphous poly(aryl ether ether ketcne) (PEEK) films at the temperature of 60°C and in glassy semicrystalline PEEK sheets at different temperatures, respectively. In the case of the amorphous PE…
Abstract Crosslinking of polypropylene–polyethylene (PP‐PE) blends involving 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, and 90% of PP with dicumylperoxide (DCP) or tert‐butyl perbenzoate (TBPB) and in the presence of coagent pentaerythritol tetrallyl ether (PETA) was investigated at 180°C. It was found that at lower concentratio…
delta 5-3-Ketosteroid isomerase (EC 5.3.3.1) of Pseudomonas testosteroni promotes the highly efficient isomerization of delta 5-3-ketosteroids to delta 4-3-ketosteroids by means of a direct and stereospecific transfer of the 4 beta-proton to the 6 beta-position, via an enolic intermediate. An acidic residue responsibl…
