Abstract Single‐walled carbon nanotubes have considerable potential as building blocks in future nanoscale electronics. The tubes exist in two modifications, metallic and semiconducting, which might be used in a range of electronic applications. One of the grand challenges is to separate metallic from semiconducting t…
We review various properties of chalcogenide glasses that make them promising materials for passive and active microphotonics. We then describe two processes for channel waveguide fabrication, using the chalcogenide glass As/sub 2/Se/sub 3/ as a core material and compatible polymers as claddings. In the first approach…
A very high yield, selective growth of dense, vertically aligned single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) has been demonstrated for the first time on Si substrates with a sandwich-like coating structure of Al2O3/Fe/Al2O3 at a low (600 °C) temperature by point-arc microwave plasma CVD. The SWNT film thickness increases c…
Adaptations of proteins towards an increased thermostability can be observed in nature in environments such as the marine hydrothermal vents. The principles behind an increased thermostability can then be used in the biotech industry in order to design proteins with high stability. The demand for an increased stabilit…
Abstract To precisely identify the effect of molecular weight of atactic poly(vinyl alcohol) ( a ‐PVA) on the durability and polarizing efficiency (PE) of a ‐PVA/dye polarizing film, we prepared two ( a ‐PVA)s with similar syndiotactic diad contents of 54.0%, degrees of saponification of 99.9%, and with different numb…
This work demonstrates a sustainability assessment of stabilisers for use in PVC pipes. The two key stabilisers selected compare calcium–zinc and so-called organically based stabiliser systems (OBS by Crompton). The methodology of the work is based on a robust set of sustainability principles known as The Natural Step…
Abstract A very efficient, simple synthesis of face‐to‐face porphyrin–corrole free‐bases bearing substituents at the meso positions of the corrole ring is reported. Starting from the (porphyrin–aldehyde)zinc species 1Zn , porphyrin–corrole free‐bases ( 3M , 3C ) are obtained in two steps, in fairly good yields (40–43…
Neste trabalho, foi analisado o efeito de um tratamento químico, ou seja, de acetilação de grupos, sobre a estrutura e a morfologia superficial de fibras de bucha (Luffa cylindrica) por meio de FTIR e microscopia eletrônica de varredura. Esse tratamento foi realizado tendo por objetivo aumentar a compatibilidade da bu…
In this study boron nitride‐containing composites (BNCC) with high strength, low Young's modulus and highly improved strain tolerance have been developed by reaction synthesis technology. The in situ formed BN particles with fine (nanosized) particle size were distributed homogeneously and isotropically in the matrixe…

Composite materials are a class of materials used in many diverse applications. Very recently the attention has shifted to the development of green composites that are easily recycleable and in this case the use of biodegradable matrices and fibres appear to be highly attractive. In the present study a class of biodeg…
We have investigated the electronic structure of Au(tmdt) 2 (tmdt = trimethylenetetrathiafulvalenedithiolate), which is a single-component conductor showing a magnetic phase transition around 100 K, by ab initio plane-wave pseudopotential calculations. A single band crosses the Fermi level. This band and the next band…

Abstract The binding of a series of phosphate anions to coordinatively unsaturated macrocyclic complexes of Yb, Tm, and Eu was studied by 1 H‐NMR, emission and circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) spectroscopy. Each ternary adduct was distinguished by its spectral profile. With O ‐phosphorylated amino acids and pep…

Abstract Eu 3+ , Dy 3+ , and Yb 3+ complexes of the dota‐derived tetramide N , N′ , N″ , N′′′ ‐[1,4,7,10‐tetraazacyclododecane‐1,4,7,10‐tetrayltetrakis(1‐oxoethane‐2,1‐diyl)]tetrakis[glycine] (H 4 dotagl) are potential CEST contrast agents in MRI. In the [Ln(dotagl)] complexes, the Ln 3+ ion is in the cage formed by t…
The influence of rare earth (RE) additions on the microstructure and some properties of gold and gold alloys have been studied. RE additions can refine the grain size of gold alloys, but show a tendency to segregation, both dendritic segregation in cast alloys and grain boundary segregation in annealed alloys. For gol…
The present study explores the effects of exposure in a laboratory combustor on microstructural stability and property retention of an all‐oxide fiber‐reinforced ceramic composite. The material consists of a porous mullite–alumina matrix and Nextel 720 fibers in an eight‐harness satin weave. To assess the effects of m…
The reaction kinetics for the formation of CuInSe2 thin films from a stacked bilayer precursor consisting of InSe and CuSe was studied by means of in situ high-temperature x-ray diffraction. In particular, the isothermal phase evolution of the glass/InSe/CuSe precursor was observed at different temperatures. The pathw…
Experimental study of the hydrogen coverage of a nanoporous silicon-specific surface reveals a fractal nature of the surface of silicon nanocrystallites constituting the porous layer. A fractal model describing the nanocrystallite morphology is elaborated. The evolution of the nanocrystallites' fractal dimension $(2.1…
