The adsorption of poly(vinyl alcohol) onto hydrophobic surfaces is described. Three different commercial polymer film samples, poly(tetrafluoroethylene- co -hexafluoropropylene)(FEP), poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET), and poly(4-methyl-1-pentene) (PMP), four different silicon-supported covalently attached monolayers…
Electronically coupled porphyrin arrays are suitable for artificial light harvesting antenna in light of a large absorption cross-section and fast excitation energy transfer (EET). Along this line, an artificial energy transfer model system has been synthesized, comprising of an energy donating meso-meso linked Zn(II)…
The Poisson-Boltzmann theory for colloidal electrostatic interactions predicts that charged colloidal spheres dispersed in water should repel each other, even when confined by charged surfaces. Direct measurements on highly charged polystyrene spheres, however, reveal strong, long-ranged confinement-induced attraction…
Presented in this work are the results of a quantum chemical study of oxygen adsorption on small Aun and Aun− (n=2,3) clusters. Density functional theory (DFT), second order perturbation theory (MP2), and singles and doubles coupled cluster theory with perturbative triples [CCSD(T)] methods have been used to determine…
Printed composites of polyaniline and single‐walled carbon nanotubes (see Figure) provide high‐resolution source/drain electrodes for organic transistors and logic gates. The low contact resistances and other good electrical properties exhibited by these systems, together with the operational flexibility of the printi…
Room-temperature ferromagnetism is observed in reduced rutile TiO2−δ by Fe doping. The epitaxial films grown by pulsed-laser deposition are carefully examined by x-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, and magnetic and transport measurements. The films exhibit the extraordinary Hall-effect and thin-film m…
To the Editor: Nephrogenic fibrosing dermopathy (NFD), a fibrosing disorder of renal patients, was thoroughly defined as a clinical and histopathological entity in this journal in 2001. 1 Since then, several case reports 2–4 have been published, and scores of reports have been histopathologically confirmed and tracked…
Silicon nanotubes (SiNTs) have been grown on a porous alumina surface, without the assistance of catalysts, by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE). The flow rate of Si atoms and the corrugated porous alumina surface seem to play an important role in the continuous growth of Si tubular structures. The Figure shows a field‐emi…
A novel polytype modulated 1D structure has been grown in ZnS nanowires via intermittent laser ablation–catalytic growth. The polytype modulated ZnS nanowires show a strong blue‐shifted bandgap emission centered at 338.2 nm due to quantum size effects. The Figure shows a dark‐field image of one of the nanowires (top)…
We report the synthesis of Eu2+- and chlorine-doped fluorozirconate glass-ceramics that show an intense photostimulated luminescence (PSL) after x-ray irradiation at room temperature. The PSL efficiency is up to 80% of that found in the well-known crystalline x-ray storage phosphor BaFBr:Eu2+, and it is the largest th…
For a model with isotropic nearest neighbor exchange combined with easy-plane exchange or single-ion anisotropies, the static effects of a magnetic vacancy site on a nearby magnetic vortex are analyzed on square, hexagonal and triangular lattices. Numerical energy minimization and linear stability analysis using the v…
Conducting poly (3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) nanowires were synthesized by using an electrochemical polymerization method with a nanoporous template. Scanning and transmission electron microscopy confirmed the formation of conducting polymer nanowires (CPNWs) with an open end. The formation and the electrical properti…
Specific heat and magnetization measurements have been carried out under a range of magnetic fields on single crystals of Ca3Co2O6. This compound is composed of Ising magnetic chains that are arranged on a triangular lattice. The intrachain and interchain couplings are ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic, respectively…
Specific heat measurements were carried out on the closely related spin-chain oxides Ca3Co2O6 and Ca3CoRhO6. Both compounds consist of Ising magnetic chains that are arranged on a triangular lattice. The spin coupling along and between the chains are ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic, respectively. Geometrical frust…
Ultrafast intersubband excitation of electrons in tunnell-coupled wells is studied depending on the structure parameters, the duration of the infrared pump and the detuning frequency. The temporal dependencies of the photoinduced concentration and dipole moment are obtained for two cases of transitions: from the singl…
For antiferromagnetically coupled Fe/Cr multilayers the low field contribution to the resistivity, which is caused by the domain walls, is strongly enhanced at low temperatures. The low temperature resistivity varies according to a power law with the exponent about 0.7 to 1. This behavior can not be explained assuming…
In binary metallic systems like the Pd--Er alloys charged with hydrogen the observed structure evolution exhibits complex dynamics. It is characterized by non-monotonic time variations in an Er-rich fraction respect with an Er-poor fraction observed experimentally. The present paper proposes a qualitative model for th…
Several of the $M{\mathrm{Cd}}_{6}$ approximants $(M=\mathrm{Pr},$ Nd, Sm, Eu, Gd, Dy, Yb, Y, and Ca) to the $M{\mathrm{Cd}}_{5.7}$ quasicrystals $(M=\mathrm{Yb}$ and Ca) have been synthesized and their structures have been refined from single-crystal x-ray-diffraction data; the different types of disorder of the cent…
Monolithic carbon possessing hierarchical, multimodal porosity has been prepared by nano‐casting of monolithic, meso‐ and macroporous silica. The carbon monolith (right in Figure) is a positive replica of the silica monolith on the micrometer scale, but a negative replica on the nanometer scale. The diameter of the fu…
Ionization potentials Ip, electron affinities E.A., and the quantum confinement in CdSe nanocrystals were determined by means of cyclic voltammetry. The results were compared to values obtained from spectroscopic measurements, especially UV/vis absorption and photoluminescence emission spectra. Absolute band gap posit…
