The layered double hydroxides (LDHs) of Co with trivalent cations decompose irreversibly to yield oxides with the spinel structure. Spinel formation is aided by the oxidation of Co(II) to Co(III) in the ambient atmosphere. When the decomposition is carried out under N2, the oxidation of Co(II) is suppressed, and the r…

This paper explores the relationship between the level of preferred molecular orientation at different length scales and the subsequent glassy stress/strain behavior of polystyrene. To produce samples with a range of orientation states, samples of a commercial polydisperse polystyrene ( M w = 274 000 g/mol, polydisper…

In selective withdrawal, fluid is withdrawn through a nozzle suspended above the flat interface separating two immiscible, density-separated fluids of viscosities nu(upper) and nu(lower) = lambda nu(upper). At low withdrawal rates, the interface gently deforms into a hump. At a transition withdrawal rate, a spout of t…

We consider electrical transport through molecules with Heisenberg-coupled spins arranged in a ring structure in the presence of an easy-axis anisotropy. The molecules are coupled to two metallic leads and a gate. In the charged state of the ring, a Zener double-exchange mechanism links transport properties to the und…

Abstract Photoactive interfaces created by mesoscopic materials realize high-efficiency light to electric conversion as achieved by dye-sensitized photoelectrodes. Combinaiton of soft carbon composite materials with the mesoscopic interfaces enables solidification of the electrochemical charge-transfer interfaces and…

Hybrid organic−inorganic crystalline materials have been obtained from a simple solvent-free synthesis in highly basic conditions. The formation of an organized hybrid structure has been achieved for the first time via sol−gel without employing bridged organosilica precursors. 3-glycidoxypropyltrimethoxysilane, which…

The kinetics of gas uptake on different regions of carbon nanotube bundles is investigated by means of a kinetic Monte Carlo scheme. A lattice-gas description is used to model the adsorption of particles on a one-dimensional chain of sites under two types of dynamics: (a) external kinetics, in which the chain is on th…

Polyelectrolyte multilayers (PEMs) are thin films, which are assembled one molecular layer at a time, by alternatingly adsorbing polycations and polyanions making use of their attractive electrostatic interaction. Since the porosity of PEMs is one of the properties of major interest, in the current work the first pore…

CO oxidation: The suitability of Pt nanoparticles capped with dodecylamine or hexanethiol ligands as oxide-supported catalysts was investigated by FTIR spectroscopy (see picture for the hexanethiol data). It is shown that CO can penetrate the ligand shell and that the Pt nanoparticles possess activity for CO oxidation.

Kaolin deposits, situated approximately 20 km south of Hisarcık, have been formed by the alteration of dacite and dacitic tuffs related to the Miocene volcanism associated with extensional tectonics. The Hisarcık kaolin deposits occur in the Kızılcukur, Ulaşlar and Kurtdere areas. Kaolinite is the only clay mineral as…

We report the first direct measurement of the proton 3-D Born-Oppenheimer potential in any material. The proton potential surfaces in the hydrogen-bonded superprotonic conductor Rb(3)H(SO(4))(2) are extracted from the momentum distribution measured using Deep Inelastic Neutron Scattering (DINS). The potential has a si…
