Abstract Structural chemistry began with Louis Pasteur, who first saw the configuration of molecules manifest in the shapes of crystals. Here is reviewed forgotten, century‐old efforts to make molecular configuration vivid in polycrystalline ensembles. Resorcinol, and a variety of other simple molecular crystals, when…

Photomagnetism in three-dimensional Co/Fe Prussian blue analogues is a complex phenomenon, whose detailed mechanism is not yet fully understood. Recently, researchers have been able to prepare molecular fragments of these networks using a building block synthetic approach from mononuclear precursors. The main objectiv…

Abstract Nanosized Fe2O3 particles (nano‐Fe2O3) with two shapes (tetrakaidecahedral and grainy) were synthesized by hydrothermal methods. The morphologies and structures were characterized using a combination of experimental techniques including X‐ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Two compo…

Multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) were functionalized with four different functional groups and used as nanofillers to reinforce biodegradable polyurethanes (PU), in an effort to explore their effect on the thermal and mechanical properties of the obtained nanocomposites. The PU were synthesized via one step proces…

Recent experiments find the signal of giant nonlocal resistance ${R}_{\mathrm{NL}}$ in $\mathsf{H}$-shaped graphene samples due to the spin/valley Hall effect. Interestingly, when the Fermi energy deviates from the Dirac point, ${R}_{\mathrm{NL}}$ decreases to zero much more rapidly compared with the local resistance…

Recent research has shown that using multiple diverse-bandgap photovoltaic (PV) cells in conjunction with a spectrum splitting optical system can significantly improve PV power generation efficiency. Although volume Bragg gratings (VBGs) can serve as effective spectrum splitters, the inherent dispersion of a VBG can b…

The nitriding process is widely used to improve the tribological properties and wear resistance of metal surfaces. An “edge effect” occurs due to distortions of the electric field around the corners and edges of the components, although the components are well heated. This results in nonuniformity in properties such a…

In this paper, we establish a general formalism to quantify the interaction of electromagnetic waves with mushroom-type structures (high impedance surface and bi-layer) with diodes inserted along the direction of the wires. The analysis is carried out using the nonlocal homogenization model for the mushroom structure…

The EELS data differed from the optical data in the energy range of 10-20 eV due to the retardation effect, even though Cerenkov loss was thoroughly suppressed. The calculated differential cross-section indicates that the influence…

The enhancement of light from semiconductors due to surface plasmons coupled resonantly to its emission is limited because of dissipation in the metal and is also restricted by the dielectric characteristics and homogeneity of the metal-semiconductor interface. We report a new mechanism based on electrostatic interact…

Current vertex correction (CVC), the backflowlike correction to the current, comes from conservation laws, and the CVC due to electron correlation contains information about many-body effects. However, it has been little understood how the CVC due to electron correlation affects the charge transports of a correlated m…

Abstract We investigate the effect of a strong magnetic field on a three dimensional smectic A liquid crystal. We identify a critical field above which the uniform layered state loses stability; this is associated to the onset of layer undulations. In a previous work García-Cervera and Joo (2012 Arch. Ration.

Efficient Monte Carlo simulations are used to determine the liquid–liquid binodal line of mixtures of hard-sphere colloids and neutral polymers under good-solvent conditions for two values of the polymer-to-colloid size ratio q, q = 0.5 and 1. We use a multiblob coarse-graining approach, in which groups of monomers ar…
