Abstract The structures of oxides formed in water and lithiated water on three Zr-based alloys with varied corrosion behavior were studied with micro-beam synchrotron radiation and optical microscopy. Micro-beam synchrotron radiation (0.2 μm spot) has a unique combination of high elemental sensitivity (ppm level) and…

Abstract Michael additions were achieved quantitatively at room temperature with a broad spectrum of acceptors and donors, using a magnesium‐lanthanum mixed oxide, a strong solid base. The best solvent for the reaction is dimethylformamide, but good yields were also obtained using toluene as solvent. The results obtai…

NdFeB sintered magnets are widely used in rotating electrical machines. In order to develop an efficient rotating machine, it is important to estimate ac loss of the permanent magnet of rotor precisely. In this paper, the ac losses of the permanent magnet of IEEJ model (surface permanent-magnet motor model) are examin…

Detection of chemical agents as poisons in water supplies not only requires microg/L sensitivity, but also requires the ability to distinguish their hydrolysis products. We have been investigating the ability of surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) to detect chemical agents at these concentrations. Here we expan…

Present-day multimedia strongly relies on re-writable phase-change optical memories. We find that, different from current consensus Ge 2 Sb 2 Te 5 (GST), the material of choice in digital versatile discs–random access memory (DVD-RAM), possesses a structure similar to ferroelectric GeTe, namely that Ge and Sb atoms ar…

A proton-conductive electrolyte based on a CsH 2 PO 4 ∕ SiP 2 O 7 composite was synthesized, and its electrochemical properties were investigated in the temperature range of 110-287°C. Addition of SiP 2 O 7 as supporting matrix brought about the structural change of conduction phase, CsH 2 PO 4 , into CsH 5 ( PO 4 ) 2…

Cholesteric liquid crystals (CLCs) are one dimensional photonic band-gap materials. Due to distributed feedback, low threshold mirrorless lasing can occur in dye-doped and pure CLCs. In order to optimize the lasing conditions, we have studied the dependence of the lasing threshold on dye concentration and sample thick…

Intense plastic deformation during equal–channel angular extrusion (ECAE) can occur in a broad region at the channel die intersection called the plastic deformation zone (PDZ). When the outer corner of the ECAE die is rounded, PDZs deviate from the model of single–plane simple shear, causing flow to be inhomogeneous.…
