A Fresnel lens with electrically-tunable diffraction efficiency while possessing high image quality is demonstrated using a phase-separated composite film (PSCOF). The light scattering-free PSCOF is obtained by anisotropic phase separation between liquid crystal and polymer. Such a lens can be operated below 12 volts…

The sterically protected dithiadiazolyl radical (F3C)3C6H2CNSSN. (1) crystallises in two polymorphs: 1alpha, comprised of monomeric units and 1beta, containing a mixture of both pi*-pi* dimers and S = (1/2) monomers; whilst both polymorphs exhibit similar structure-directing motifs, the variation in packing leads to d…

Highly ordered mesoporous ethanesilica (MES) with 2D hexagonal structure was synthesized from 1,2-bis(trimethoxysilyl)ethane under neutral conditions for the first time. Divalent salts, such as NiCl2, MgCl2, ZnCl2, ZnSO4 and Zn(NO3)2, were used to help the formation of the ordered mesostructure. The MES samples were c…

Large-area nanostructured noble-metal films (Ag, Pt, and Au) can be deposited with high yields and various morphologies on silicon formed between the semiconductor and the noble metal by means of a galvanic cell. It is shown that the morphology of Ag, which is different from that of Pt and Au, can be influenced marked…

In a recent computational study [G. N. Vayssilov, B. C. Gates and N. Rösch, Angew. Chem., Int. Ed. Eng., 2003, 42, 1391], we found zeolite-supported Rh6 clusters, interacting with hydroxyl groups of the support, to undergo partial oxidation due to reverse spillover of hydrogen onto the metal cluster. Now, we have exte…

A new series of achiral bent-core mesogens is presented. The mesophase behaviour has been investigated using differential scanning calorimetry, polarizing microscopy, X-ray diffraction, and dielectric and electro-optical measurements. Depending on the length of the terminal chains the homologues form nematic phases, c…

We describe a new, simple, room-temperature wet-chemical approach for assembling Au and Ag nanoparticles into nanowire networks, without the use of lithographic templates. Five to 35 nm-diameter nanowires passivated with a thin organic layer were synthesized by mechanically agitating a biphasic liquid mixture of an aq…

Mesoporous TiO2 and mixed Ti oxides are prepared by a modified sol-gel method using a block copolymer as a mesoporous template. Calcination of the material at 400 °C for template removal is shown to induce crystallization of pure TiO2, resulting in the destruction of the original mesoporous structure and the developme…
