Abstract Hysteresis is induced in paraelectric (Ba,Sr)TiO 3 (BST) thin‐film capacitors by inserting an Al 2 O 3 barrier layer of a few nanometers in thickness between the BST layer and the electrode. The observed hysteresis is explained by ambipolar charge carrier injection through the Al 2 O 3 layer and charge storag…

Gradient stripe patterns of multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) with remarkable regularity over large areas were fabricated by using evaporation-induced self-assembly technique. In this method, a glass coverslip was inclinedly immersed into a suspension of MWCNTs in dichloroethane. By controlling the solvent evapora…

Abstract Increasing ecological concerns have given rise to renewed interest in the use of natural materials, considering their renewability and possibility of disposal at the end of their life cycle without damage to the environment. In this study, we examined the isolation of cellulose from Esparto “ Stipa tenacissim…

The rational design and synthesis of a family of effective low-molecular-weight gelators (LMWGs) with a modular architecture based on a C(2) -1,4-diamide cyclohexane core are reported. Due to the high symmetry, the gelators are initially well distributed in solution and no trapped aggregates are formed before the asse…

Abstract Natural fibers (NFs) are rich in cellulose and also they are a low cost, easily renewable source for polymer composites. However, the presence of impurities (waxes, lignin, etc.) and hydroxyl groups produce those NFs with less ability to reinforce polymeric matrices. Short sisal fibers (SSF) were subjected to…

ABSTRACT The present paper describes some factors exerting an influence on the coaxing effect of austenitic stainless steels. Particularly, the influence of prestrain was investigated in detail. The materials used were austenitic stainless steels, type 304 and 316. Type 304N2 was also used to examine the properties of…

Abstract The design and characterization of amorphous alternating copolymers endowed with a satisfactory thermal stability are reported. These alternating poly(CTFE‐ alt ‐CEVE) copolymers are synthesized by radical copolymerization of chlorotrifluoroethylene (CTFE) with 2‐chloroethyl vinyl ether (CEVE), which are firs…

A low-resolution structure of the catalytic subunit CK2α of human protein kinase CK2 (formerly known as casein kinase 2) in complex with the ATP-competitive inhibitor resorufin is presented. The structure supplements previous human CK2α structures in which the interdomain hinge/helix αD region adopts a closed conforma…

Individual porphyrin macrocycles in fully conjugated oligoporphyrins exhibit different degrees of macrocyclic aromaticity. We proposed a theoretical method for estimating the degrees of macrocyclic aromaticity of these porphyrin units. This method, based on the concept of bond resonance energy, is applicable to all ty…

Double- and triple-decker oligoarylamines have been prepared and characterized by X-ray crystallography for the first time (see picture; C black, N blue). The N-dianisylaminophenyl-substituted double decker exhibited the multiredox activity, and the oxidized species were confirmed to be in high-spin states on the basi…
