The crystal and magnetic structures of the n = 3 Ruddlesden−Popper phase with the ideal composition Ca 4 Mn 3 O 10 have been studied using X-ray and neutron powder diffraction. The crystal structure at 293 K is relatively insensitive to the partial pressure of oxygen used in sample preparation. A sample prepared in ai…
We extend previous work on alkali halides by calculations for the heavy-atom species RbF, RbCl, LiBr, NaBr, KBr, RbBr, LiI, NaI, KI, and RbI. Relativistic effects are included by means of energy-consistent pseudopotentials, correlations are treated at the coupled-cluster level. A striking deficiency of the Hartree-Foc…
We present a density functional study of the structural and electronic properties of small Cu_n (n=1,4) aggregates on defect-free MgO(100). The calculations employ a slab geometry with periodic boundary conditions, supercells with up to 76 atoms, and include full relaxation of the surface layer and of all adsorbed ato…
The engineering of functional smooth muscle (SM) tissue is critical if one hopes to successfully replace the large number of tissues containing an SM component with engineered equivalents. This study reports on the effects of SM cell (SMC) seeding and culture conditions on the cellularity and composition of SM tissues…
A boron-doped hydrogenated amorphous diamondlike carbon (a-DLC:H) was prepared using a mercury-sensitized photochemical vapor deposition (photo-CVD) method. The source gases were B2H6 and C2H4. By increasing the boron doping ratio (B2H6/C2H4) from 0 to 12 000 ppm, the dark conductivity increased from ∼10−9 to ∼10−7 S/…
Transient photocurrents are investigated in ferroelectric lead zirconate titanate (PZT) films illuminated by laser pulses in the spectral range of 340–380 nm. At low electric fields, the photocurrent is sensitive to the ferroelectric polarization state and changes sign upon the polarization switching. At higher fields…
The α-Fe/R2Fe14B-type exchange-coupled NdFeB nanocomposites with a coercivity (iHc) of more than 11 kOe and energy product, (BH)max, of more than 16 MGOe have been successfully obtained on melt spun (Nd0.95La0.05)7.5+xFebalCr2B10 alloy powders, where x ranged from 3 to 3.5. It was found that a slight substitution of C…
We study macroscopic quantum coherence in antiferromagnetic molecular magnets in the presence of magnetic fields. Such fields generate artificial tunnel barriers with externally tunable strength. We give detailed semiclassical predictions for tunnel splitting in various regimes for low and high magnetic fields. We sho…
Nanocrystalline-silicon superlattices are produced by controlled recrystallization of amorphous-Si/SiO2 multilayers. The recrystallization is performed by a two-step procedure: rapid thermal annealing at 600–1000 °C, and furnace annealing at 1050 °C. Transmission electron microscopy, Raman scattering, x-ray and electr…

Liquid gas was used to produce DLC films on Cu, Al and steel substrates by DC plasma technique. The absorption in IR reflectance indicates, grown films are DLC. By deconvolution of room temperature UV-visible spectra of the films grown at 50 mtorr and 200${}^\circ$C, in addition to the spectra lines reported for CL, P…
A mean-field model of photoinduced surface reliefs in dye containing side-chain polymers is presented. It is demonstrated that photoinduced ordering of dye molecules subject to anisotropic intermolecular interactions leads to mass transport even when the intensity of the incident light is spatially uniform. Theoretica…
Nanocrystalline TiO2 has been obtained by a sol-gel process by controlling the crystal size through the water/alkoxide ratio. Raman spectra of anatase nanocrystals with average sizes of 9.5–13.4 nm are reported and the correlation between the Raman band shape (peak position and linewidth) of the main feature at 144 cm…
Polypropylene-clay hybrids (PPCH) were prepared using a maleic anhydride-modified PP oligomer (PP-MA) as a compatibilizer. PP was melt-blended with organophilic clay which was intercalated with PP-MA. In these PPCHs, the particles of silicate layers were dispersed at the nanometer level. The particles became smaller a…

Stable liposomes were rendered pH-sensitive by complexation to a polymer that undergoes marked temperature- and pH-dependent water solubility changes. The N-isopropylacrylamide-methacrylic acid copolymer was prepared with or without octadecyl acrylate. At pH below the phase transition of the polymer, egg phosphatidylc…
Some 3d n (4 ≤ n ≤ 7) transition metal compounds exhibit a cooperative transition between a low-spin (LS) and a high-spin (HS) state. This transition is abrupt and occurs with a thermal hysteresis, which confers a memory effect on the system. The intersite interactions and thus the cooperativity are magnified in polym…
Amorphous fibres of boehmite OH—Al=O are synthesised using an electrochemical surface oxidation reaction of an amorphous Al plate in open air at room temperature. The microstructures of the samples, measured at selected periods of time of reaction, demonstrate a very rapid growth in the separated fibres with a highly…
Japan Atomic Energy Research Institute has been conducting a design study of an advanced marine reactor MRX. MRX employs a water-filled containment vessel. In a case of loss of coolant accident (LOCA), the discharge of water from the reactor vessel almost stops when the pressures of reactor vessel and containment vess…
This study was carried out to establish the reliability of ab-initio (Huzinaga, 3-21G*, STO-3G* basis sets) and pseudo-potential (LANDL2DZ basis set) quantum mechanical methods for molecules containing the Te-Se-Te group. Bond lengths and bond energies were calculated for the diatomic model compounds Se-Se, Se-Te, and…
