This work predicts the extraordinary hyperpolarizability of inorganic clusters: two water trimer anions. The first hyperpolarizabilities of (H2O-)(3) are considerable, beta(0)=1.715 x 10(7) a.u. for configuration A and beta(0)=1.129 x 10(7) a.u. for configuration B at MP2/d-aug-cc-pVDZ+x level. The first hyperpolariza…
Abstract The crystal transformation and thermomechanical properties of melt‐intercalated poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF)/clay nanocomposites are reported in this study. Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) were used to study the thermal properties of PVDF and its nanocomposites…
A cooperative spin transition behaviour with a wide hysteresis loop (30 K) around 240 K has been observed, for the first time, in a salt based on the redox active [Ni(dmit)(2)](-), anion and the [Fe(sal(2)-trien)](+) spin crossover cation.
A molecule-based binary half-adder with optical inputs and outputs has been demonstrated. The half-adder consists of two photochromic organic molecules in solution and a third-harmonic-generating crystal. One substance acts as an AND Boolean logic gate and the other as an XOR gate. Inputs are laser pulses at 1064 or 5…
We report on design, fabrication, and magnetooptical studies of a III-V/II-VI hybrid structure containing a GaAs/AlGaAs/ZnSe/ZnCdMnSe double quantum well (QW). The structure design allows one to tune the QW levels into the resonance, thus facilitating penetration of the electron wave function from the diluted magnetic…
This is a review of studies of the behaviour of materials under high pressure in Serbia in the second half of the last century.Theoretical foundations are presented,as well as some examples of the results and a selection of the open problems.
Low field magnetotransport revealing signatures of ballistic transport effects in strained Si/SiGe cavities is investigated. We fabricated strained Si/SiGe cavities by confining a high mobility Si/SiGe 2DEG in a bended nanowire geometry defined by electron-beam lithography and reactive ion etching. The main features o…
We present a scaling analysis of electronic and transport properties of metal-semiconducting carbon nanotube interfaces as a function of the nanotube length within the coherent transport regime, which takes fully into account atomic-scale electronic structure and three-dimensional electrostatics of the metal-nanotube…
We have considered the relaxation of transverse thermal and high-frequency phonons for the Landau-Rumer mechanism in the semiconductor cubic crystals. Using the known values of these elastic moduli, the parameters determining the transverse phonon relaxation rates for the Landau-Rumer mechanism have been evaluated for…
We report the first results of time-dependent density functional simulations of magnetic properties of Fe and Ni at finite temperatures. They reveal the existence of local moments in Ni above the Curie temperature, coupled to strong short range order. In Fe the short range order is also present to a lesser extent but…
Ordered double perovskite oxides of the general formula, A2BB'O6, have been known for several decades to have interesting electronic and magnetic properties. However, a recent report of a spectacular negative magnetoresistance effect in a specific member of this family, namely Sr2FeMoO6, has brought this class of comp…
Linear nanotubular boron-carbon heterojunctions are systematically constructed and studied with the help of ab initio total energy calculations. The structural compatibility of the two classes of materials is shown, and a simple recipe that determines all types of stable linear junctions is illustrated in some detail.…
As predicted by Slonczewski and Berger, the possibility of exciting microwave oscillations in a nanomagnet by a spin-polarized current has been recently demonstrated. This observation opens very important perspectives of applications in RF components. However, some unresolved inconsistencies are found when interpretin…
The surface of lanthanide(III)-doped LaPO4 nanoparticles was modified by reaction with an alcohol, leading to a covalent bond between the ligand and the particle surface. The surface of lanthanide(III)-doped LaF3 nanoparticles was modified to alter the solubility of the nanoparticles and study the influence of surface…
Visible light irradiation of the absorption band of 9-mesityl-10-methylacridinium ion (Acr+-Mes) in an O2-saturated acetonitrile (MeCN) solution containing 9,10-dimethylanthracene results in formation of oxygenation product, i.e., dimethylepidioxyanthracene (Me2An-O2). Anthracene and 9-methylanthracene also undergo ph…
Since thousands of years humans have utilized insect silks for their own benefit and comfort. The most famous example is the use of reeled silkworm silk from Bombyx mori to produce textiles. In contrast, despite the more promising properties of their silk, spiders have not been domesticated for large-scale or even ind…
We report for the first time a photothermally responsive composite material based on polymer microgel particles doped with gold nanorods. We used the dependence of the longitudinal surface plasmon of the gold nanorods on their aspect ratio to synthesize nanoparticles with strong absorption in the near-IR spectral rang…
Gold nanoparticles (<2 nm) stabilized by poly(N-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone) (Au:PVP NPs) were prepared by reduction of AuCl4- with NaBH4 in the presence of PVP and characterized via an array of methods including optical absorption spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, X-ray absorption near-edge s…
Abstract This paper reviews the most important factors affecting the degradation and drug‐release rate of bio‐erodible polymers for better control in biomedical applications. There are several factors that influence the overall rate of degradation, in addition to pH and copolymer composition. In general, polymer degra…
We have examined the structure and function of two enzymes, alpha-chymotrypsin (CT) and soybean peroxidase (SBP), adsorbed onto single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs). SBP retained up to 30% of its native activity upon adsorption, while the adsorbed CT retained only 1% of its native activity. Analysis of the secondary…
