Hydrogen peroxide is generally considered to be a green oxidant, as it is relatively non-toxic and breaks down in the environment to non-toxic by-products. However, the current method for production, the sequential hydrogenation and oxidation of an alkyl anthraquinone, is capital-intensive, produces significant volume…

The temperature dependent thermoelectric power (TEP) of boron- and nitrogen-doped multiwalled carbon nanotube mats has been measured showing that such dopants can be used to modify the majority conduction from p-type to n-type. The TEP of boron-doped nanotubes is positive, indicating hole-like carriers. In contrast, t…

Neutral aluminum oxide clusters are produced in a molecular beam by laser vaporization in a pulsed-nozzle cluster source. These clusters are ionized via (multi-) photon absorption from either an ultraviolet excimer laser or from a far-infrared free electron laser. Ultraviolet (multi-) photon ionization produces sparse…

The third-order nonlinear optical properties of a series of 15 unmetallated and metallated 1,4,8,11,15,18,22,25-octaalkylphthalocyanines have been investigated. The palladium-metallated compound is the strongest nonlinear absorber of the series, but, due to its comparatively high linear absorption coefficient, it exhi…

Abstract Ordered macroporous materials recently have attracted much attention. A method that utilizes the condensation of monodisperse water droplets on a polymer solution is proposed for the preparation of honeycomb microporous films. Our results show that it is a general method that can be used for patterning a wide…

Pitting behavior in the presence of cathodic polarization was investigated using aluminum single crystals with surface orientations of (100), (110), and (111). The effects of the surface orientations on pit density, pit current density, and pit morphology were studied. In addition, the development of crystallographic…

Nanocrystalline cerium oxide films with grain sizes as small as 6 nm are deposited by anodic deposition. Cyclic voltammetry studies of a series of complexing ligands indicate that formation constants below and a solution pH between 7 and 10 are needed for film formation. A mechanism is proposed for the deposition of p…
