Injecting charge into dangling bond wires on Si(001) has been shown to induce polarons, which are weakly coupled to the underlying bulk phonons. We present elevated temperature tight binding molecular dynamics simulations designed to obtain a diffusion barrier for the diffusive motion of these polarons. The results in…

Thin films of incompatible block copolymers self-assemble into highly regular supramolecular structures with characteristic dimensions in the 10–100 nm regime. There is increasing interest in controlling the resulting structures and utilizing them, for instance in the area of nanotechnology. So far, research has conce…

We introduce a path to a possibly new class of magnetic materials whose properties are determined entirely by the presence of a low concentration of specific point defects. Using model Hamiltonian and ab initio band structure methods we demonstrate that even large band gap nonmagnetic materials as simple as CaO with a…

In this paper we present the first results on emission in metamaterial. We show how the specific properties of metallic composite material can modify the emission of an embedded source. We show that under proper conditions the energy radiated by a source embedded in a slab of metamaterial will be concentrated in a nar…

We study the interaction between a one dimensional magnetic nanostructure and a thin film superconductor. It is shown that different magnetic distributions produce characteristic magnetic field signatures. Moreover, the magnetic structure can induce a weak link in the superconducting film, or be positioned directly ab…

The nucleation behavior of poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) on friction-deposited poly(tetrafluoroethylene) (PTFE) was investigated by means of atomic force microscopy (AFM). This technique allows for imaging of the nucleation and crystallization processes in real time. An estimation of the PCL crystal orientation on the PT…

Ferromagnetic particles used for the catalytic growth of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs), which are embedded in a graphitic shell, represent a major obstacle in studying the bulk material. We have explored a purification method that is based on a mixing of the SWNT suspension with inorganic nanoparticles in an…

Ellipsometric parameters of layer-by-layer self-assembled osmium complex-derivatized poly(allylamine) and glucose oxidase multilayers, (PAH-Os) n (GOx) n, were measured at different wavelengths during oxidation−reduction cycles. Data were analyzed using an isotropic single layer model for the enzyme films. The changes…

The Hofmann−Klemen effect describes the observed reduction in expandable character and cation exchange capacity of lithium-saturated montmorillonite upon mild heating. Although it is widely accepted that the observed changes are due to the lithium ions becoming fixated within the layer structure of the clay mineral, s…

Poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) microfiber was in-situ formed by compounding PET with polyethylene (PE) through a single screw extruder of a Haake rheometer system, where a rod die with comparatively smaller diameter (2.1 mm) was used, and the extrudate was drawn in a certain drawing ratio (3.1:1) and quickly coole…

Dimethyl sulfoxide (CH3S(O)CH3: DMSO) is an important product of dimethyl sulfide (CH3SCH3: DMS) photooxidation. The mechanism of the OH-radical initiated oxidation of DMSO is still highly uncertain and a major aim of recent studies has been to establish if methane sulfinic acid (CH3S(O)OH: MSIA) is a major reaction p…
