In this paper we present the results of the synthesis and characterisation of nanocrystalline La1-xNaxMnO3+delta samples. Two synthetic routes were employed: polyacrylamide-based sol-gel and propellant synthesis. Pure, single phase materials were obtained with grain size around 35 nm for the sol-gel samples and around…

Silver−silica composite particles with a core−shell structure were been obtained. The thickness of the silver nanoshell could be easily tailored by varying the number of deposition cycles. The method for fabricating such particles was based on a seed-mediated growth technique, where metal silver nanoparticles tethered…

In this paper we have applied the full-potential linearized muffin tin orbital method and the tight-binding linearized muffin tin orbital method to investigate in detail the electronic structure and magnetism of a series of half-Heusler compounds XMZ with X = Fe,Co,Ni, M = Ti,V,Nb,Zr,Cr,Mo,Mn and Z = Sb,Sn. Our detail…

Polymers incorporating the triptycene subunit were prepared for the molecular-level design of low dielectric constant (low-kappa) materials that can be used to manufacture faster integrated circuits. Triptycenes having restricted rotation by multiple point attachment to the polymer backbone are shown to introduce free…

We report the design, fabrication and performance of the 5 x 2 pixel uncooled microbolometer array. The test microbolometer utilizes pulsed laser deposited vanadium oxide film at room temperature as the IR sensitive layer. The microbolometer was fabricated without air-gap thermal isolation structure and the pixel area…

Disconnected free surfaces (or interfaces) of a connected liquid volume (or liquid volumes) occur when the boundary of the liquid volume consists of two or more separate surface components Γi (i=1,…,m) that correspond to liquid–gas (or liquid–liquid) interfaces. We consider disconnected surfaces for which each compone…

We have investigated the electric-field effect on the orbital-ordered state of eg electrons for layered manganites Nd1−xSr1+xMnO4 near the phase boundary between antiferro d3x2−r2/d3y2−r2 and ferro d3x2−r2 orbital-ordered phases. By means of a polarization microscope in crossed-Nicol configuration, we can distinguish…

Through mechanoelastic, thermal expansion, and dielectric measurements as a function of the temperature on ceramics of BiMoxW1−xO6 (x=0, 0.10, and 0.25) solid solutions, anomalies in the corresponding parameters are found below the ferroparaelectric phase transition temperature. One of these anomalies, that correspond…

Recent advances in the design of fast field cycling (FFC) relaxometers make it now possible to explore the nuclear magnetic relaxation dispersion (NMRD) of semidilute nuclei with short relaxation times. The paramagnetic relaxation rate enhancement of the protons of the tetramethylammonium (CH3)4N+ cation due to the in…

Cu interconnect technology requires the use of <5-nm-thick interfacial layers to inhibit Cu transport into adjacent dielectric layers. We demonstrate the use of 3.5-nm-thick polyelectrolyte layers comprising polyethyleneimine (PEI) and polyacrylic acid (PAA) for this application. Cu/PAA/PEI/SiO2/Si structures s…

A new aerosol‐assisted surfactant self‐assembly approach has been developed for large‐scale mesostructured silica thin film fabrication. The formation mechanism involves coalescence of semisolid surfactant–silica mesostructured particles on substrates (see Figure) and subsequent reassembly of the mesostructures to ada…

A simple model of harmonic vibrations in topologically disordered systems, such as glasses and supercooled liquids, is studied analytically by extending Euclidean random matrix theory to include vector vibrations. Rather generally, it is found that (i) the dynamic structure factor shows soundlike Brillouin peaks whose…

We established the number of Si 2p photoelectrons emanating from a Si(100) substrate covered with a silicon–oxide film as a function of azimuthal and polar angles using the oxide film thickness as a parameter. The elastic and inelastic scattering cross sections of Si 2p photoelectrons in silicon oxide were deduced by…
