A manganese(III)-substituted polyoxometalate of the "sandwich" structure, [MnIII2ZnW(ZnW9O34)2]10-, catalyzed the highly selective (>99.9%) epoxidation of alkenes, such as 1-octene, 2-octene, and cyclohexene with nitrous oxide. Reactions occurred in homogeneous media at 150 degrees C under 1 atm N2O. The epoxidation h…
Three thulium doped tellurite glass compositions have been investigated. The 1470 nm transition is radiative in these tellurite glasses and the radiative lifetimes are in the range of 350 to 470 μs. The 1470 nm fluorescence is broad with a full width at half maximum of 105 nm. Fibers have been drawn from these glasses…
The atom-transfer radical polymerization of methyl methacrylate at room temperature starting from monolayers of initiators, which are covalently anchored to silicon substrates, is described. The control of layer thickness and molecular weight, a constant graft density, and a narrow molecular weight distribution of the…
The effects of total-body irradiation on the permeability of rat striatal blood-brain barrier (BBB) to [3H]alpha-aminoisobutyric acid (AIBA) and [14C]sucrose were investigated using the microdialysis technique. Seven days, 3 and 6 weeks, and 3, 5, and 8 months after gamma exposure at a dose of 4.5 Gy, no modification…
70SiO 2 – 30HfO 2 planar waveguides, doped with Er3+ concentrations ranging from 0.3 to 1 mol %, were prepared by sol-gel route, using dip-coating deposition on silica glass substrates. The waveguides show high densification degree, effective intermingling of the two components of the film, and uniform surface morphol…
A ferromagnet-metal-type composite, La0.7Ca0.3MnO3 (LCMO)–Ag, was fabricated by a two-step chemical route which can avoid the doping of Ag into the lattice of LCMO. The grain size of Ag can be reduced by increasing calcination temperature, which favors the penetration of Ag into LCMO matrices. A large enhancement in m…
We performed small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) experiments on oriented samples of laponite clay gels obtained by slow evaporation. The SAXS patterns are clearly anisotropic, which demonstrates the existence of nematic-like orientational correlations of the laponite disc-like particles. The iso-intensity lines of the…
A thermophilic, anaerobic, piezophilic, chemo-organotrophic sulfur-reducing bacterium, designated as KA3T, was isolated from a deep-sea hydrothermal chimney sample collected at a depth of 2630 m on the East-Pacific Rise (13 degrees N). When grown under elevated hydrostatic pressure, the cells are rod-shaped with a she…

A theory for concentration fluctuations in binary polymer blends is developed using field-theoretic techniques. The theory provides a simple, unified framework for addressing a number of important issues. First, consideration of the fluctuation and correlation effects on different length scales leads to a clarificatio…
Half-Heusler alloys with the general formula TiNiSn1−xSbx are currently being investigated for their potential as thermoelectric (TE) materials. A systematic investigation of the effect of Sb doping on the Sn site and Zr doping on the Ti site on the electrical and thermal transport of the TiNiSn system has been perfor…
Diatoms are a ubiquitous class of microalgae of extreme importance for global primary productivity and for the biogeochemical cycling of minerals such as silica. However, very little is known about diatom cell biology or about their genome structure. For diatom researchers to take advantage of genomics and post-genomi…
The decrease in the measured dielectric constant of sputter-deposited (Ba,Sr)TiO3 thin films having Pt electrodes with decreasing dielectric film thickness was analyzed by a combination of theories regarding the finite charge-screening length of the metal electrode and the intrinsic-dead layer of the dielectric surfac…
The physics of ferromagnetic doped manganites, such as La 1-x Ca x MnO 3 with x ≈ 0.2-0.4, is reviewed. The concept of double exchange is discussed within the general framework of itinerant electron magnetism. The new feature in this context is the coupling of electrons to local phonon modes. Emphasis is placed on the…
The synthetic and structural chemistry of polynuclear manganese, cobalt, nickel and copper carboxylate complexes, stabilized by various forms of di-2-pyridyl ketone, is discussed. The structural diversity displayed by the described complexes stems from the ability of the doubly and singly deprotonated forms of the gem…
Oxidized carbon nanotubes have been reacted with Wilkinson's complex. It has been found that the Rh metal coordinates to these nanotubes through the increased number of oxygen atoms, forming a hexacoordinate structure around the Rh atom. The reaction process increases oxidized nanotube solubility in DMSO (>150 mg/L) a…
Laboratory and greenhouse studies compared the ability of water treatment residuals (WTRs) to alter P solubility and leaching in Immokalee sandy soil (sandy, siliceous, hyperthermic Arenic Alaquod) amended with biosolids and triple superphosphate (TSP). Aluminum sulfate (Al-WTR) and ferric sulfate (Fe-WTR) coagulation…
In this paper, a new device topology has been proposed to implement parallel plate capacitors using Ba/sub x/Sr/sub 1-x/TiO/sub 3/ (BST) thin films. The device layout utilizes a single parallel capacitor and minimizes conductor losses in the base electrode. The new design simplifies the monolithic process and overcome…
Using infrared irradiation to heat an industrial brass (Cu–Zn alloy) disk in moderate vacuum, ZnO nanobelts were directly prepared on a Si substrate. The nanobelts had a single-crystal hexagonal structure and grew along the [0001] direction. The nanobelts had two distinct widths along their entire length. Photolumines…
We propose and demonstrate a type of composite metamaterial which is constructed by combining thin copper wires and split ring resonators (SRRs) on the same board. The transmission measurements performed in free space exhibit a passband within the stop bands of SRRs and thin wire structures. The experimental results a…
