Self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) of rigid biphenyl thiols are employed as heterogeneous nucleants for the crystallization of l - alanine and dl -valine. Powder X-ray diffraction and interfacial angle measurements reveal that the l -alanine crystallographic planes corresponding to nucleation are {200}, {020}, and {011}…

The reaction of the trivacant Dawson anion alpha-[P(2)W(15)O(56)](12-) and the divalent cations Co(2+) is known to form the tetracobalt sandwich complex [Co(4)(H(2)O)(2)(P(2)W(15)O(56))(2)](16-) (Co(4)P(4)W(30)). Two new complexes, with different Co/P(2)W(15) stoichiometry, [(NaOH(2))(2)Co(2)(P(2)W(15)O(56))(2)](18-)…

The new mesoporous transparent conducting oxide based on indium-tin-oxide, meso-ITO, has been synthesized by a modified sol-gel method, using CTAB as the surfactant. Critical was the employment of triethanolamine to control the rate of hydrolysis and inhibit deposition of the bulk oxides. Removal of the surfactant by…

Nanocrystals of Al 2 O 3 and Al 2 O 3 /MgO have been produced by a modified aerogel synthesis involving the corresponding aluminum tri- tert -butoxide, magnesium methoxide, toluene, methanol, ethanol, and water. The resulting oxides are in the form of powders having crystallites of about 2 nm or less in dimension. The…

Insects provide examples of many cunning stratagems to cope with the challenges of living in a world dominated by surface forces. Despite being the current masters of the land environment, they are at constant risk of being entrapped in liquids, which they prevent by having waxy and hairy surfaces. The problem is part…

A computer simulation of thermofluctuation nucleation of kinks on dislocations and their dynamics is carried out in the framework of two-dimensional (2D) Frenkel-Kontorova model. It is shown that at relatively low temperatures and applied stresses the kinks can appear as a result of developing instability of phonon mo…

The magnetic field dependence of the capacitance of Pd-AlOx-Al thin-film structures has been measured. The observed quadratic dependence of capacitance on magnetic field is consistent with a theoretical model that includes the effect of a spin-dependent electrochemical potential on electron screening in the paramagnet…

Hydrophobicity and sliding behavior of water droplets were investigated on various hydrophobic pillarlike and groove structures prepared on a silicon wafer by dicing and subsequently coating with fluoroalkylsilane. The dominant hydrophobicity mode was changed from Wenzel's mode to Cassie's mode at a smaller roughness…

The gap in semiconductor nanocrystallites has been extensively studied both theoretically and experimentally over the last two decades. We have compared a recent ‘state-of-the-art’ theoretical calculation with a recent ‘state-of-the-art’ experimental observation of the gap in Si nanocrystallite. We find that the two a…

A series of antimony-doped Ba(8)Ga(16)Ge(30) clathrates was grown as large crystals from gallium flux. These compounds form in the cubic space group Pm(-)3n, with the unit cell parameter varying from 10.784(5) to 10.9008(6) A as the amount of GaSb substituting for germanium atoms in the framework is increased. It was…

The monodisperse oligoamides 1, 2, 3, and 4 have been tested as organic gelators. It was found that gelation occurs only above a critical degree of oligomerization of 2, that is, for the trimer 3 and the tetramer 4, and in aromatic solvents. Thermotropic and rheological properties of the trimer and the tetramer gels a…

The introduction of the CN group onto a diamond surface was attempted using diacyl peroxides with CN group-containing compounds. When acetonitrile was used as solvent for the radical reaction process, the CN group was introduced onto the diamond surface, however when benzonitrile was used no CN group was introduced. T…

We present a theoretical framework for the viscosity of bimodal and polydisperse colloidal suspensions. For colloidal dispersions both interparticle forces between pairs of particles and many-particle effects such as depletion forces can have a significant effect on rheology. As hydrodynamic interactions are also impo…
