Superhydrophobic surfaces with contact angles between 173° and 180° can be produced simply by spontaneous deposition of a textured gold or silver coating layer, followed by a self-assembled monolayer of polyfluoroalkyl thiol. Objects of any size or shape may be coated. For example, the metal “pond skater” (photo) stan…

Shells within shells: Simply varying the concentration of the cetyltrimethylammonium bromide surfactant in a template process leads to single-, double-, triple-, and quadruple-shelled Cu2O hollow spheres (see TEM image). Thus, the vesicle-directed synthesis of inorganic multishelled hollow spheres is feasible.

Abstract The morphologies of triblock copolymer/homopolymer blend films confined between two neutral hard walls were studied via MC simulations on a simple cubic lattice. For ABA/A and ABA/B blend films, the effects of φ h (the volume fraction of the homopolymer) and M h / M b (the ratio of the molecular mass of the h…

Abstract Monte Carlo simulations were carried out to investigate the adsorption of semiflexible chains from a semidilute solution to substrates with periodic stripes of width w . The chains are made of fused N = 10 monomers of diameter σ interacting with each other through excluded volume interactions and with the str…

The time-dependent generalized unrestricted Hartree-Fock (TDGUHF) method combined with a two-component quasi-relativistic Hamiltonian generated from the Douglas-Kroll-Hess (DKH) transformation was developed to calculate frequency-dependent molecular magnetizabilities, which are the linear response quantity of a molecu…

The fact that the elastic constant for bending a layer of smectic- C liquid crystal along its c director differs from the value for bending in the perpendicular direction has recently been shown to give rise to interactions between distant layers. The effect of this entropy-induced interaction is to favor a parallel o…

Zwischen den Zeilen: Funktionalisierte einwandige Kohlenstoffnanoröhren (SWNTs) können in der hexagonalen kolumnaren Mesophase diskotischer Flüssigkristalle (DLCs) eingelagert werden. Die thermophysikalischen Eigenschaften von SWNT-DLC-Kompositen sprechen für einen Einschluss der SWNTs in die supramolekulare DLC-Struk…

The polymorphism of a new organosiloxane tetrapode compound with cyano terminal polar groups was characterized by means of polarizing optical microscopy and x-ray diffraction. The compound exhibits smectic- A and smectic- C phases with a partial bilayer arrangement due to a certain degree of head-to-head association o…

The orientation of a ${\mathrm{C}}_{70}$ fullerene molecule encapsulated in a single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) depends on the tube radius. First we confirm that chirality effects do not affect the orientation as well by comparing discrete atomistic calculations with the results of a continuous tube approximation…

We report on the measurement of the Raman intensity of radial breathing modes of a relatively large diameter range of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) by confocal Raman scattering. Statistical data analysis yielded an intensity distribution within the excitation width of the single laser line at $2.33\phantom{\r…

The in situ x-ray powder diffraction study indicates that these metamagne…

To investigate multishell models of multiwalled carbon nanotubes, we consider the buckling of a pair of graphene layers interacting by van der Waals forces. The layers are modeled as continuum sheets whose interaction is determined by a Lennard-Jones interatomic potential. Important in our treatment is the effect of n…

Abstract Thermal degradation behavior of a biodegradable polymer (PBS) has been investigated by conventional and MTGA methods. The kinetic parameters of degradation were calculated by a general analytical solution and by the Coats‐Redfern, Ozawa, Horowitz‐Metzger, and MTGA methods. The results reveal that the reaction…
