Recently, a method to produce bulk quantities of pure multiwall WS 2 nanotubes, which could reach several microns in length, has been developed. A detailed study of the growth mechanism of these WS 2 nanotubes has been undertaken, which is reported hereby. A series of experiments were conducted to define the key param…
We investigated the effect of fire intensity from slash‐and‐burn agriculture on the mineralogy of Oxisols in the Sepunggur area, Jambi Province, Sumatra, Indonesia, in both field and laboratory experiments. Samples were collected from two depths (0–5 and 5–15 cm) at locations exposed to 100, 300, 600, and >600°C su…
Ferromagnetic Co nanowires have been electrodeposited into self-assembled porous anodic alumina arrays. Due to their cylindrical shape, the nanowires exhibit perpendicular anisotropy. The coercivity, remanence ratio, and activation volumes of Co nanowires depend strongly on the length, diameter, and spacing of the nan…
The effect of Co2+Ti4+ substitution on complex permeability, permittivity, and microwave absorption has been studied for [Ca(CoTi)xFe12−2xO19]96.0[La2O3]4.0 ferrite-epoxy composites, wherein x varies from 0 to 1.0 in steps of 0.2, in the frequency range from 8.0 to 12.4 GHz. The ferrites with x>0 exhibit signif…
Ferromagnetic shape-memory alloys have recently emerged as a new class of active materials showing very large magnetic-field-induced extensional strains. Recently, a single crystal of a tetragonally distorted Heusler alloy in the NiMnGa system has shown a 5% shear strain at room temperature in a field of 4 kOe. The ma…
Crystallization within the discrete spheres of a block copolymer mesophase was studied by time-resolved x-ray scattering. The cubic packing of microdomains, established by self-assembly in the melt, is preserved throughout crystallization by strong interblock segregation even though the amorphous matrix block is well…
Monoclinic gallium oxide nanowires are prepared here by arc discharge of GaN powder in the presence of a small amount of transition metal catalyst. The nanowires are characterized by X-ray diffraction, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, and Raman spectroscopy, and evidence as to the mechanism of their formation (sh…

Folic acid, attached to polyethyleneglycol-derivatized, distearoyl-phosphatidylethanolamine, was used to target in vitro liposomes to folate receptor (FR)-overexpressing tumor cells. Confocal fluorescence microscopic observations demonstrated binding and subsequent internalization of rhodamine-labeled liposomes by a h…
Coating extremely thin degradable template polymer fibers with the desired wall materials forms the basis of the straightforward and highly versatile method described here for the production of polymer, metal, and hybrid nano- and mesotubes. Tubes with highly structured inner surfaces (see Figure) may be fabricated, w…
OBJECTIVE: In tissue engineering, three-dimensional biodegradable scaffolds are generally used as a basic structure for cell anchorage, cell proliferation and cell differentiation. The currently used biodegradable scaffolds in cardiovascular tissue engineering are potentially immunogenic, they show toxic degradation a…
1,2-Bis(2-methyl-5-phenyl-3-thienyl)perfluorocyclopentene ( 1a ) and their derivatives, 1,2-bis(2-methyl-5- p -tolyl-3-thienyl)perfluorocyclopentene ( 2a ) and 1,2-bis(2-methyl-5- p - tert -butylphenyl-3-thienyl)perfluorocyclopentene ( 3a ), were found to undergo reversible photochromic reactions in the single-crystal…
Different compositions of wheat thermoplastic starch (TPS) and polycaprolactone (PCL) are melt blended by extrusion and injected. Different properties are determined: mechanical properties (tensile and impact tests), thermal and thermomechanical properties (DSC and DMTA) and hydrophobicity (contact angle measurement).…
Temperature dependent measurements of the electrical resistance have been employed to study structural changes in sputtered Ge2Sb2Te5 films. The pronounced changes of film resistance due to structural changes enable a precise determination of transition temperatures and activation energies. Furthermore the technique i…
Can carbon nanotubes be efficient structural reinforcements for high-strength polymer composites? Here it is shown that, during loading, individual single-walled nanotubes pull out of their bundles (see Figure), making load transfer difficult. It is thus concluded that the effectiveness of reinforcement is determined…
We demonstrate a composite medium, based on a periodic array of interspaced conducting nonmagnetic split ring resonators and continuous wires, that exhibits a frequency region in the microwave regime with simultaneously negative values of effective permeability &mgr;(eff)(omega) and permittivity varepsilon(eff)(omega)…
Based on a model Hamiltonian with the nearest-neighbor Coulomb interaction of the itinerant e g electrons, we investigated the possibility of the coexistence of the charge-ordering phase and the antiferromagnetic phase for the manganites R 1-x A x MnO 3 with the doping of x = 0.5. Three different types of the magnetic…
The compound dimethyl-2-iodobenzoylphosphonate is unusual in that it forms well-ordered crystals that clearly show short iodine-oxygen interactions in which both the iodine and the oxygen are in their normal oxidation states. These interactions were studied using a new hybrid quantum mechanical–molecular mechanical ap…
The mean free path of phonons in superlattices is estimated. It is shown to be strongly dependent on the superlattice period due to the Umklapp scattering in subbands. It first falls with increasing the superlattice period until it becomes comparable with the latter after what it rises back to the bulk value. Similar…
