The fundamental zones of Rodrigues–Frank (R-F) space applicable to misorientations between crystals of any two Laue groups are constructed by using a unified formulation in terms of quaternion algebra. Some of these regions are fully bounded by planes that are determined solely by the symmetries of the groups, while o…
The fatigue crack propagation (FCP) behavior of magnesium alloy AZ61 at room temperature (RT), elevated temperature (60°C, 120°C) , and in ambient and wet air was investimated. The mechanisms of FCP were discussed in detail. It was demonstrated that The FCP rate of AZ61 magnesium alloy increased with increasing temper…
The powders of Al-Mn phases were obtained from the as-cast, as-rolled and as-extruded AZ magnesium alloys (AZ31, AZ61) by using the extraction technology, which was found to be one of the effective methods for analyzing Al-Mn phases in the AZ magnesium alloys. X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM…
Surface-plasmon resonance (SPR) is a sensing technique widely used for its label-free feature. However, its sensitivity is contingent on the divergence angle of the excitation beam. The problem becomes pronounced for compact systems when a low-cost LED is used as the light source. When the Kretschmann configuration wi…
Abstract The synthesis and characterization of new ferrocene‐containing mesomorphous compounds is described. In order to induce mesogenic behavior, the structure of the substituent was systematically modified. Derivatives with no more than two rings in the core did not exhibit liquid crystalline properties. The synthe…
In this paper, we derived a compact model for the description of the P–E hysteresis behavior based on the dipole switching theory. Simulation results show good agreement with the experiment for various hysteresis loops, and the mathematical description can be easily combined with an electronic design automation softwa…
We report a study on the influence of charge trapping on electroluminescence (EL) from Si nanocrystal (nc-Si) distributed throughout a 30nm SiO2 thin film synthesized by Si+ implantation into an oxide film thermally grown on a p-type Si substrate. The electron and hole trapping in the nc-Si located near the indium tin…
Water turns out the light: By using SiO2 nanospheres as templates, luminescent lanthanide coordination compound nanospheres are prepared (see image). Water quenches the green fluorescence of the coordination compounds, and the nanospheres are used to determine the presence of water in liquids.
Photoexcitation as a novel route for obtaining delocalized polarons in conducting polyaniline is predicted theoretically and confirmed experimentally. Original model experiments and theoretical calculations on protonated emeraldine species with various chain alignments as well as of isolated chains were carried out. I…
Cyclic siloxanes with pendent naphthalene diimide groups were synthesized via hydrosilylation to form amorphous electron-accepting compounds. Photophysical measurements and >99.9% fluorescence quenching of well-known p-type polymers by the siloxanes demonstrate that these siloxanes form a new class of highly efficient…
The electron density map of a block copolymer thin film having the hexagonally perforated layer (HPL) structure was directly obtained from the measured grazing-incidence small-angle X-ray scattering (GISAXS) pattern, exploiting the multiple-scattering phenomena present in GISAXS. It is shown that GISAXS is in principl…
Four tetraphosphorylated TiiiiPO cavitands 1 encapsulate the pyridinium heads of a tetrakis(N-methylpyridinium)porphyrin iodide to form a 4:1:4 (host)4/guest4+/4I- complex. The single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis shows the arrangement of the four cavities bound to the CH3N+ groups of the porphyrin moiety and the…
The crystal structure, dielectric properties, and optical properties of Bi1.5ZnNb1.5−xTaxO7 (BZNT,x=0, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5) pyrochlore ceramics were investigated. The structures of the BZNT ceramics were identified as cubic pyrochlores and the lattice parameters decreased with x increasing. Thermogravimetric analysis were c…
The reaction of calcium carbonate (1014) single-crystal surfaces with formic acid (HCOOH) vapor was investigated using atomic force microscopy (AFM) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). AFM images indicate the reaction produces rather well-defined crystallites, preferentially at step edges and at distinct angle…
The orientation of crystals in a polycrystalline sample is adequately described using pole figures, displaying the three-dimensional distribution of specific crystallographic directions or poles. Registration of pole figures is necessary to characterize the preferred orientation of crystals and its influence on the an…
Expanding world economic prosperity and probable peaking of conventional petroleum production in the coming decades requires efforts to increase the efficiency of, and the development of alternatives to, petroleum-based fuels used in automotive transportation. North America has been aggressively pursuing both approach…
In Mg-Al-Zn and Mg-Al-Mn alloys containing 2.0~6.0mass%Al and 0~1.5mass%Zn, grain refinement in the as-rolled (F) specimens containing large amount of Al and Zn are achieved by both dynamic recrystallization and dynamic precipitation during hot rolling and leads to high strength and high ductility at room temperature.…
The role of anisotropic misfit strains on the spontaneous polarization, dielectric properties, and pyroelectric response of (110) oriented Ba0.6Sr0.4TiO3 (BST 60/40) thin films on (100) orthorhombic substrates is analyzed theoretically. The anisotropic in-plane strain state and the rotation of the elastic and the elec…
With adding 2% strontium in AZ91D, the ultimate tensile strength and the elongation increased by 10.3% and 55.3%, respectively. This is mainly caused by the refinement of the β phase and the formation of Al4Sr strengthening phase. Furthermore, with adding 2% strontium in AZ91D alloy, the weight loss corrosion rate in…
The thermoelectric properties of quaternary icosahedral AlPdReFe quasicrystals obtained by replacing Re with Fe in icosahedral AlPdRe quasicrystals have been studied according to the guiding principle of weakly bonded rigid heavy clusters (WBRHCs). Anisotropy in the microstructures of arc-melted and annealed samples w…
