We report a physical mechanism responsible for initiating a vacuum breakdown process of a single carbon nanotube (CNT) during field emission. A quasidynamic method has been developed to simulate the breakdown process and calculate the critical field, critical emission current density and critical temperature beyond wh…
Abstract The green emission of poly(9,9′′‐dioctylfluorenyl‐2,7′′‐diyl), end‐capped by polyhedral oligomeric silsequioxanes, (PFO‐POSS) has been investigated by photoluminescence (PL) and photoexcitation (PE), gel permeation chromatography (GPC), and transmission Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. The gree…
We investigated the optical properties of epitaxial n-type ZnO films grown on lattice-matched ScAlMgO4 substrates. As the Ga doping concentration increased up to 6x10(20) cm(-3), the absorption edge showed a systematic blueshift, consistent with the Burstein-Moss effect. A bright near-band-edge photoluminescence (PL)…
The continued evolution of targeted liposomal therapeutics has resulted in new agents with remarkable antitumour efficacy and relatively mild toxicity profiles. A careful selection of the ligand is necessary to reduce immunogenicity, retain extended circulation lifetimes, target tumour-specific cell surface epitopes,…
We spatially resolve the infrared light emission from ambipolar carbon-nanotube field-effect transistors with long-channel lengths. Electrons and holes are injected from opposite contacts into a single nanotube molecule. The ambipolar domain, where electron and hole currents overlap, forms a microscopic light emitter…
Rheological properties of xerographic liquid inks of different concentrations of solid particles have been tested. Generally we have found that viscosity decreases with increasing shear rate, i.e. the system is pseudoplastic as corresponds to the break down of aggregated particles by the applied shear. The viscosity o…
The performance of tests with elastic liquids at high shear rates is cumbersome due to viscous dissipation heating, high normal forces, and - above all - edge fracture. This paper shows how such measurements can be improved and simplified over the conventional cone-plate technique by using a partitioned plate. For a p…
Abstract Frequency sweep experiments were performed on poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) and acrylonitrile butadiene rubber (NBR) as well as their miscible blends PVC/NBR (70/30), PVC/NBR (50/50), and PVC/NBR (30/70) in oscillatory shear. The samples were prepared by mechanical blending at 160˚C. In order to investigate the…
Abstract A new high‐molecular‐weight three‐arm poly(ε‐caprolactone) (PCL) polymer was synthesized in bulk (in the absence of any solvent) by using aluminum tri‐sec butoxide as a tri‐functional initiator. The ring‐opening polymerization of ε‐caprolactone occurs via a coordination‐insertion mechanism that links three gr…
Abstract We have developed a novel organocatalytic, direct synthesis of aliphatic polyesters. The synthesis was based on a novel direct organic acid‐catalyzed living ring‐opening polymerization (ROP) of ε‐caprolactone and δ‐valerolactone with benzyl alcohol as the initiator. The organic acid‐catalyzed ROPs were perfor…
Primary and secondary intragranular austenite precipitation and its relationship with chromium nitride (Cr 2 N) were studied in a simulated multipass heat affected zone (HAZ) of five duplex stainless steel alloys (UNS S32304, S32205, S32550, S32750, and S32760). The Gleeble thermal-mechanical simulator was used to per…
Abstract A commercial‐scale reactive extrusion processing system for recycled poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) flakes with an added chain extender, pyromellitic dianhydride (PMDA), was investigated. The PMDA concentration was varied with the intention of reaching a higher recycled PET intrinsic viscosity ([η]). The…
The variations of impact strength and compressive strength of unsaturated polyester based sisal/glass hybrid composites with fiber loading have been studied. The impact strength of these hybrid composites has been found to be higher than that of the matrix, whereas a marginal decrease was observed in the compressive s…
The synthesis of layered double hydroxides (LDHs) by hydrothermal-LDH reconstruction and coprecipitation methods is reviewed using a thermodynamic approach. A mixture model was used for the estimation of the thermodynamics of formation of LDHs. The synthesis and solubility of LDHs are discussed in terms of standard mo…
Abstract Molecular probes can be employed in three different ways for the characterization of nanoporous adsorbents. The simplest approach is to use a range of globular nonpolar molecules of different diameter in order to assess the effective size of the pore entrances in a molecular sieve. For this purpose, conventio…
