Although boron-doped diamond (BDD) is itself quite stable and chemically inert, some electrochemical applications could require further improvement, and fluorination could be one of the most promising methods. In the present paper, a characterization of diamond film electrodes surface-modified by fluorine insertion, t…

Thin-film transistors based on aligned carbon nanotubes (CNTs) were fabricated by directly growing highly ordered CNTs on silicon dioxide surface. The transistor shows a pronounced field effect. Electric transport through the aligned carbon nanotubes is dominated by the holes at room temperature. A hole mobility (μp)…

Conjugated polymers and oligomers can serve as highly responsive fluorescent reporters for biosensor applications. However, their optical properties in aqueous media are highly dependent upon environmental conditions. The structure of the paracyclophane framework provides a platform for designing optical reporters tha…

Nanostructured gold/monolithic mesoporous silica assembly was synthesized by a sonochemical method. The optical absorption maximum of the as-prepared nanocomposite varies from the visible to near-infrared region, depending on the reduction rate of AuCl4− ions in solution. There exists a critical reduction rate of AuCl…

When a bubble rising in distilled water or in an aqueous pentanol-1 solution approached the air/water interface, rapid pulsations of its shape with a frequency of more than 1000 Hz were observed. In addition, the bubble bounced from the free surface, prior to its rupture or to the formation of a foam film. It is rathe…

We have used molecular dynamics methods to investigate the effects of cyclic chain architecture on the properties of dilute solutions. In order to include solvent effects in estimating these properties, we use a van der Waals scaling factor determined for each solvent by matching to the theta condition. We predict tha…

Methane is the simplest organic molecule, and like many supposedly simple molecular materials it has a rich phase diagram. While crystal structures could be determined for two of the solid phases, that of the low temperature phase III remained unsolved. Using high-resolution neutron powder diffraction and a direct-spa…

In this work we present an efficient procedure to evaluate effective pair potentials compatible with "experimental" distribution functions using a Monte Carlo simulation scheme. Using computer simulation results for the pair distribution functions, we have applied the method to a Lennard-Jones fluid and to a model of…

Field emission characteristics from multiwall carbon nanotubes were studied under various gas environments. The experiments on field emission revealed several surface reactions under high-vacuum operating conditions. The Fowler–Nordheim (F–N) analysis showed a field emission regime dominated by the surface adsorbents,…
