Si nanocrystals (Si nc) were formed by the implantation of Si + into a SiO 2 film on (100) Si, followed by high-temperature annealing. The microstructure of the Si nc produced by a high-dose (3 × 10 17 cm -2 ) implantation has been extensively investigated using high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM)…

It had been demonstrated that large-scale honeycomb-like nanoparticle arrays could be fabricated inexpensively by the process of monolayer nanosphere self-assembly. Here we report that a double-layer masking procedure can be effectively used to overcome the restriction of honeycomb order in an array resulted from a mo…

We show by means of experiments, theory, and simulations that the slow dynamics of coarsening systems displays dynamic heterogeneity similar to that observed in glass-forming systems. We measure dynamic heterogeneity via novel multipoint functions which quantify the emergence of dynamic, as opposed to static, correlat…

Nanomaterials have attracted considerable interest with numerous technological developments in the last decade. Nanomaterials exhibit different physicochemical properties compared with their bulk counterparts because the diameters of the nanoparticles are less than the Bohr exciton radius. Cerium oxide based materials…

Abstract Summary: Film samples of low‐density polyethylene (LDPE) and biaxially oriented poly(propylene) (BOPP) were surface modified by vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) irradiation using a Kr resonant lamp at λ = 123.6 nm in low‐pressure ammonia gas, and were then stored in air. The time‐dependence of the surface properties…

The photoinduced isotropic state of liquid crystalline azobenzenes exhibits one of the strongest nonlinear optical refraction known for isotropic materials. The optical nonlinearity of these materials is large in a wide band of the visible spectrum and is accompanied with high, over 90%, transmission for red wavelengt…

Abstract The kinetics of crystallization of poly(propylene terephthalate) (PPT) samples of different molecular weights were studied under both isothermal and nonisothermal conditions. The Avrami and Lauritzen–Hoffmann treatments were applied to evaluate kinetic parameters of PPT isothermal crystallization. It was foun…

We propose that electron doped nontransition metal phthalocyanines such as ZnPc and MgPc, similar to those very recently reported, should constitute novel strongly correlated metals. Because of orbital degeneracy, Jahn-Teller coupling, and Hund's rule exchange, and with a large on-site Coulomb repulsion, these molecul…

Isothermal compressibilities and Brillouin sound velocities from the literature allow us to separate the compressibility at the glass transition into a high-frequency vibrational and a low-frequency relaxational part. Their ratio shows the linear fragility relation discovered by x-ray Brillouin scattering, though the…

Ti-doped NaAlH 4 can be directly prepared by mechanical milling a 1:1 mixture of NaH and Al together with a few mole percent of off-the-shelf metallic Ti powder under an argon or hydrogen atmosphere. The hydrogen storage materials that are produced through this process exhibit stable hydrogen capacities through 10 cyc…

The first major scientific study of diamond polishing was by Tolkowsky. His model dominated until recent years, when high–resolution microscopes allowed detailed studies of polished diamond surfaces. In this paper, new research shows that diamond polishing involves two– and three–body wear processes. The third body co…

Force-constant and positional disorder have been introduced into diamond lattice models in an attempt to mimic the vibrational properties of a realistic amorphous silicon model. Neither type of disorder is sufficient on its own to mimic the realistic model. By comparing the spectral densities of these models, it is sh…
