Novel materials based on the Ga-Sb-Te system are proposed as a medium for phase-change memory (PCM). Studied compositions were located along the pseudo-binary tie-line GaSb-Sb8Te2, in which the atomic ratio Sb/Te of GaSbTe films is higher by incorporating GaSb into Sb8Te2, indicating a possible higher crystallization…

While hydrogels exhibit numerous characteristics that make them ideal in biological applications, they are typically limited in overall design flexibility due to the rigid dependence of their physical properties and behavior on the chemistry and cross-linking structure of the gel's network. As the demand for hydrogels…

A computational (ZINDO) investigation is employed to estimate the molecular hyperpolarizability (β) of a [(TTF−NH 2 ) 8 ] (TTF = tetrathiafulvalene) octameric stack at various fractional (0 < ρ < 1) oxidation states of TTF ρ + . While the neutral [(TTF−NH 2 ) 8 ] octamer exhibits a modest (7.6 × 10 - 30 cm 5 esu - 1 )…

The interfacial properties of amphiphilic linear diblock copolymers based on poly(ethylene oxide) and poly(epsilon-caprolactone) (PEO-b-PCL) were studied at the air-water (A/W) interface by surface pressure measurements (isotherms and hysteresis experiments). The resulting Langmuir monolayers were transferred onto mic…

Holographic polymer dispersed liquid crystals (HPDLCs) are a polymer/liquid crystal (LC) composite with wavelength selective diffraction that can be switched in microseconds with electric field. As such, HPDLCs are widely applicable in optical and photonic devices. Recently, replacing acrylate polymer with thiol−ene p…

This study is concerned with the viscoplastic behaviour of polymers. A modified viscoplastic Bodner–Partom model was extended to include successively the post-yield (strain softening and strain hardening) and the pre-yield behaviour. In order to identify material parameters of the constitutive law, an analytical schem…
