Abstract Atomic hopping processes on ceria nanoparticle surfaces are observed by in situ phase contrast high‐resolution electron microscopy with an aberration‐corrected imaging lens. It is shown that single‐atom resolution is possible, and single‐atom dynamics for cerium are observable. Discrete changes in contrast an…

The converse magnetoelectric effect (CME) of a 2-mm-thick Pb(Zr0.52Ti0.48)O3 (PZT)/Tb0.30Dy0.7Fe2 (Terfenol-D)/PZT laminate subjected to an applied dc voltage bias has been investigated. Experimental data demonstrate that the CME coefficient αCME (B/Vac)is highly dependent on the applied voltage bias. In the present w…

Site-isolated Ti(IV) centers were introduced onto the surface of a mesoporous SBA-15 support via the thermolytic molecular precursor method. Prior to thermal treatment to generate Ti−OH sites, residual silanol groups were capped via reaction with Me 2 N-SiMe 3 to give TiMe cap SBA15 . After low temperature treatment i…

This ab initio study was performed to better understand the correlation between intercalated water molecules and layered double hydroxides (LDH), as well as the changes that occur by the dehydration process of Zn-Al hydrotalcite-like compounds containing Cl⁻ and CO₃²⁻ counterions. We have verified that the strong inte…

Mn-doped PbZr0.52Ti0.48O3 (PZT) films were utilized to study the effect of acceptor dopant concentration on the mobility of ferroelectric domain walls. For chemical solution deposited PZT films between ∼0.5–2μm in thickness doped with 1–2mol.% Mn, the low field relative permittivity remained between 900 and 1000. With…

Off-lattice computer simulations of polyelectrolyte brushes are carried out using the Debye approximation with explicit counterions but implicit salt. The results are compared with explicit salt ion simulations and self-consistent field theory. We demonstrate that the data generated with these different techniques are…

Highly c-axis oriented ZnO thin films have been deposited on silicon substrates by planar rf magnetron sputtering under varying pressure (10–50 mTorr) and oxygen percentage (50–100%) in the reactive gas (Ar + O2) mixture. The as-grown films were found to be stressed over a wide range from −1 × 1011 to −2 × 108 dyne/cm…
