Abstract For the first time, high‐percentage molybdosilicic acid fiber mats (20–80% H 4 SiMo 12 O 40 ) were prepared using the electrospinning technique. The fiber mats were characterized by IR, XRD, and DSC. The results indicated that poly(vinyl alcohol) was changed from a semicrystalline to an amorphous state with a…
During the deposition of films that grow by the Volmer–Weber mechanism, crystallites nucleate as isolated islands, grow larger to impinge with other islands, and eventually coalesce into a continuous film. Tensile stress generation due to grain boundary formation during island coalescence, commonly referred to as isla…
We give a brief review of how activation energies from scan-rate-dependent Tg studies have been correlated with those for viscosity and other relaxation processes, in order to place the present study in context with previous work, including that referred to in the comment. Then we examine the ensuing question of the e…
Cationic and anionic microgels based on sulfonated polystyrene and poly(ethylmethacryltetramethylammonium chloride) and containing Pd and Pt nanoparticles were used as templates along with polystyrene- block -poly(ethylene oxide) block copolymers for casting nanoporous alumina and aluminosilica with nanoparticles. The…
Using electron microscopy, we identify local, intergranular regions of hexagonal close-packing at a grain boundary in gold. By analyzing the topological defects that connect this layer to the adjacent face-centered cubic grains, we explain the geometric origin of this interfacial reconstruction. We extend this analysi…
Polyaniline (PANI) porous asymmetric membranes were prepared using a phase-inversion technique, and their bending−recovery behavior induced by sorption and desorption of chemical vapors was studied. It was found that the bending−recovery rates and maximum bending angles of the membranes were different in various vapor…
Behaviors of magnetic domains with cooling in a Ni51Fe22Ga27 ferromagnetic shape memory alloy were examined by electron holography and Lorentz microscopy. A peculiar meshy pattern was observed in the Lorentz microscope image of the parent phase, being concurrent with the anomaly in the thermomagnetization curve. The m…
This letter reports on flexible field emitter arrays of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) aligned on organic polymer substrates. An array of gold electrodes was patterned on the Ti-coated polymer substrate by sputtering gold through a shadow mask. A self-assembly monolayer of organic molecules was then formed on…
Multiwall boron nitride nanotubes (BNNTs) were produced with a yield of about 50% by co-pyrolyzing NH 4 BF 4, KBH 4, and NaN 3 in a temperature range from 450 to 600 °C. The obtained BNNTs have a diameter range of 60−350 nm and length range of 0.5−5 μm. Many BN nanocages were found coexisting with the BNNTs. The exper…
Homogeneous ice nucleation was investigated in aqueous solutions of poly[ethylene glycol] (PEG) with a molar mass between 300 and 6000 g mol−1. Experiments were performed with a differential scanning calorimeter using emulsified aqueous PEG solutions with concentrations of 0–44 wt %. Equilibrium phase transition tempe…
Solid solutions of xBiFeO3–yPrFeO3–zPbTiO3 (x+y+z=1) and (1−w)BiFeO3–wPbTiO3 have been explored for finding ferroelectromagnetic bulk material, in which ferroelectricity and ferromagnetism coexist simultaneously. The coexistence has been observed only in some ternary composition samples, that is, 0.2BiFeO3–0.2PrFeO3–0…
Gd-substituted Y2−xGdxO3:Eu3+ luminescent thin films have been grown on Al2O3 (0001) substrates using pulsed-laser deposition. The films grown under different deposition conditions have been characterized using microstructural and luminescent measurements. The crystallinity, surface morphology, and photoluminescence (…
La 0.67 Sr 0.33 MnO 3 ultrathin films grown on vicinal SrTiO3(100) surface show an in-plane uniaxial magnetic anisotropy with easy axis along the substrate atomic steps generated by a 10° miscut off the (100) plane. Over a large angular range, the angular dependence of magnetic switching field is found to obey the 1/c…
Fe-doped 0.955Pb(Zn1/3Nb2/3)O3−0.045PbTiO3 (PZNT4.5) single crystals were grown using a high temperature flux technique and the dielectric, piezoelectric, electromechanical, electrostrictive, and electro-optic properties were characterized. The room temperature dielectric permittivity along the <001> dir…
We demonstrate how time integration of stochastic differential equations (i.e., Brownian dynamics simulations) can be combined with continuum numerical analysis techniques to analyze the dynamics of liquid crystalline polymers (LCPs). Sidestepping the necessity of obtaining explicit closures, the approach analyzes the…
The structures of 94 ternary aluminates are reinterpreted on the basis of the Zintl-Klemm concept and Pearson's generalized octet rule. In aluminates of highly electropositive metals such as alkali, alkaline-earth and rare-earth metals, the Al atoms form three-dimensional skeleta which can be interpreted as if the Al…
We have performed quasi-isentropic compression experiments on radiation-damaged stainless steel. The samples were dynamically loaded by Sandia National Laboratory’s Z accelerator with a ramp compression wave. Sample/window interface velocities were recorded with VISAR. The velocity histories suggest a sudden volume re…
We report Fe3+-related emission in ion-implanted ZnO single crystals. Iron ions were implanted at room temperature with 100 keV and a fluence of 1×1016 Fe+/cm2, and were submitted to annealing treatments in vacuum and in air. After implantation, the damage raises the minimum yield (χmin) from 2% to 50%. Annealing in a…
This work studies the spectroscopic behavior of Eu3+-doped and Yb3+/Er3+-codoped single crystals of orthorhombic LaBO3 and rhombohedral GdBO3. Emissions from Er3+ at ∼1535 nm are shown to exhibit multiple narrow linewidth emissions. Luminescence from the D05→7F1, F27 transitions of Eu3+ is found to depend on the choic…
Three novel vanadogermanate cluster anions have been synthesized by hydrothermal reactions. The cluster anions are derived from the (V(18)O(42)) Keggin cluster shell by substitution of V=O(2+) "caps" by Ge(2)O(OH)(2)(4+) species. In Cs(8)[Ge(4)V(16)O(42)(OH)(4)].4.7H(2)O, 1, (monoclinic, space group C2/c (No. 15), Z =…
