Abstract Oxygen incorporation into infinite-layer structure compounds SrFeO2 and CaFeO2 has been investigated by thermogravimetry analysis. Oxygen begins to be incorporated into SrFeO2 at low temperatures like 100 °C, and the incorporation-reaction rate in SrFeO2 is much larger than that in CaFeO2. A larger structural…

Orbital localization of occupied and virtual Hartree-Fock orbitals generated from basis sets augmented with diffuse functions is performed using the Pipek-Mezey, Boys, powers of the second central moment, and powers of the fourth central moment localizations. The locality of the obtained orbital sets are presented in…

Recent anelastic and dielectric spectroscopy measurements revealed new features of the phase diagram of PbZrTiO regarding the manner in which various ferroelectric and octahedral tilt instability lines approach each other. Rather than crossing, they tend to merge, also after considerable bending, and give rise to comb…

We use a spring-and-plaquette network model to analyze the repulsion between elastic disks in contact. By studying various 2D geometries, we find that as disks approach the incompressibility limit the many-body effects become dominant and the disk-disk interaction is not pairwise additive. Upon compression, the disks…

Abstract This work reports the effect of nanogel solid particles on the surface and interfacial tension of water/air and water/styrene interfaces. Moreover, the work aimed to use nanogels as a stabilizer for miniemulsion aqueous polymerization. A series of amphiphilic crosslinked N ‐isopropylacrylamide ( NIPAm ) and 2…

We derive an exact expression for the time-averaged electromagnetic (EM) energy inside a chiral dispersive sphere irradiated by a plane wave. The dispersion relations correspond to a chiral metamaterial consisting of uncoupled single-resonance helical resonators. Using a field decomposition scheme and a general expres…

Understanding the industrial reactors behavior is a difficult task in the case of solid state reactions such as solid-gas reactions. Indeed the solid phase is a granular medium through which circulate gaseous reactants and products. The properties of such a medium are modified in space and time due to reactions occurr…

The reactivation of CoNiAl calcined hydrotalcite-like compounds for the hydrolysis of carbonyl sulfide was studied. The catalytic activity could be recovered after immersing Na 2 CO 3 and calcining catalyst under air flow at 350 °C. The fresh, deactivated, and reactivated catalysts were characterized by various techni…

We study crossed Andreev reflection (CAR) of electrons or holes in normal metal--superconductor--normal metal (NSN) junctions and highlight some very strong effects of the underlying lattice. In particular, we demonstrate that for sharp interfaces and under certain, albeit generic, symmetry conditions, the CAR probabi…

In the manufacturing of micro/nanocomposite materials, micro/nanoparticles need to be dispersed evenly into the base materials. However, due to their high surface-to-volume ratio and high surface energy, the micro/nanoparticles tend to agglomerate and cluster together. Ultrasonic cavitation is effective to disperse mi…

We consider a nematic liquid crystal, in coexistence with its isotropic phase, in contact with a substrate patterned with rectangular grooves. In such a system the nematic phase may fill the grooves without the occurrence of complete wetting. There may exist multiple (meta)stable filled states, each characterized by t…
