The role of oxide substrate with respect to ${\text{O}}_{2}$ adsorption induced changes in the Raman spectra of individual metallic carbon nanotubes is examined. A chiral metallic nanotube suspended over a trench exhibits a relatively simple two-peak $G$-band feature with no observable $D$-band intensity. On the other…

Single-crystal CdTe nanorods with diameters of 50-100 nm were synthesized under a surfactant-assisted hydrothermal condition. The experimental results indicated that with a temporal dependence the morphologies of CdTe nanocrystallites changed from nanoparticles to smooth surface nanorods. The crystal structure, morpho…

The Bragg peaks in x-ray diffraction experiments are generally taken to be a reliable measure of the average lattice distance in crystals. We show that this assumption can be misleading when determining hydrogen-induced volume changes. Experiments based on simultaneous determination of the position of the Bragg peak a…

Abstract Isotactic polypropylene (PP) has been reactively blended with various grades of an ethylene–octene copolymer (EOC) in a twin‐screw extruder. Free radical polymerization of styrene and a multifunctional acrylate during melt extrusion has resulted in an enhancement of mechanical properties over the binary blend…

We have directly grown single-walled carbon nanotubes on epitaxial BaTiO3 thin films, fabricating prototype carbon nanotube-ferroelectric devices. We demonstrate polarization switching using the nanotube as a local electric field source and compare the results to switching with an atomic force microscopy tip. The obse…

Nanostructured titanium dioxide (TiO(2)) porous films and nanotube arrays were prepared by atomic layer deposition (ALD) on porous anodic alumina (PAA) templates. The nanostructures were characterized by FESEM and XRD to investigate the structural and crystallographic characteristics. They were then evaluated as self-…

Intrinsic zinc oxide (i-ZnO) and aluminium-doped ZnO (ZnO:Al) are components of high-efficiency copper indium gallium diselenide solar cells. This paper examines both of these materials grown by two different techniques, namely radio frequency sputtering and electrodeposition (ED) for comparison and a better understan…

An extensive study of the single-step replication of form-birefringent quarter-wave plates is presented. Using rigorous diffraction theory, the fabrication parameters and tolerances are carefully studied in order to obtain ideal conditions for successful replication. The design considerations are then applied to fabri…

We employed transmission electron microscopy and Raman spectra to investigate the behavior of impurity carbon usually unintentionally introduced in N-doped ZnO by metal-organic chemical vapor deposition. Unintentional doped carbon may form graphite clusters along grain boundaries resulting in n-type domains and possib…

The brownmillerite-type A 2B 2O 5 structure is considered as a parent one, giving rise to different derivatives: layered double perovskites, A-site and anion-vacancy-ordered perovskites, and the perovskite-like compounds with crystallographic shear planes. The structural relationships and synthesis pathways for these…
