By understanding the role of DMF as a hydride source via a Pd-catalyzed reaction and switching to CH(3)CN solvent, an efficient route for the synthesis of emeraldicene and some new substituted derivatives is reported with potential application in organic electronics. Additionally, the nucleophilic alkylation of emeral…

Multiwavelength Raman microspectroscopy (MWRM) analysis for characterization of soot structure and reactivity was developed. This new method is based on the dispersive character of carbon D mode in Raman spectra (i.e., red shift and increase in intensity at higher excitation wavelength, λ(0)). The approach was proven…

Our ab initio theory calculations predict a semiconducting band structure of I-Mn-V compounds. We demonstrate on LiMnAs that high-quality materials with group-I alkali metals in the crystal structure can be grown by molecular beam epitaxy. Optical measurements on the LiMnAs epilayers are consistent with the theoretica…

We report the finding of a novel grain-boundary structural phase transition in both molecular-dynamics and phase-field-crystal simulations of classical models of bcc Fe. This transition is characterized by pairing of individual dislocations with mixed screw and edge components. We demonstrate that this type of transit…

Abstract Poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) resin is one of the most widely used thermoplastics, especially in packaging. Because thermal and hydrolytic degradations, recycled PET (RPET) exhibits poor mechanical properties and lacks moldability. The effects of adding elastomeric modifiers, chain extenders (CE), and po…

The oil-water-gas environments of oil production facilities harbour abundant and diverse microbial communities that can participate in deleterious processes such as biocorrosion. Several molecular methods, including pyrosequencing of 16S rRNA libraries, were used to characterize the microbial communities from an oil p…

Gaining an understanding the dynamic behaviors of dopant atoms in silicon nanowires (SiNWs) is the key to achieving low-power and high-speed transistor devices using SiNWs. The segregation behavior of boron (B) and phosphorus (P) atoms in B- and P-doped SiNWs during thermal oxidation was closely observed using B local…

Epitaxial Ti3SiC2 (0001) thin film contacts were grown on doped 4H-SiC (0001) using magnetron sputtering in an ultra high vacuum system. The specific contact resistance was investigated using linear transmission line measurements. Rapid thermal annealing at 950 °C for 1 min of as-deposited films yielded ohmic contacts…

In order to ensure that vacuum electronic devices work with high overall efficiency, it is required to use materials with low secondary electron emission to fabricate or coat collectors, grids, and envelope walls of the devices. We report that the secondary electron yields of monolayer graphenes are ultralow, comparab…

Superpositioning of relaxation data as a function of the product variable TV(γ), where T is temperature, V the specific volume, and γ a material constant, is an experimental fact demonstrated for approximately 100 liquids and polymers. Such scaling behavior would result from the intermolecular potential having the for…

Polarized Raman spectra of NiFe${}_{2}$O${}_{4}$ (NFO) films of varying thickness and growth temperature are investigated and discussed. We find that the relaxed films obtained at higher temperatures on MgAl${}_{2}$O${}_{4}$ (MAO) substrate exhibit spectra identical to those of single crystals and provide strong indic…

In this work, we produced large-area graphene oxide (GO) sheets with fewer defects on the basal plane by application of shear stress in solution to obtain high-quality reduced graphene oxide (RGO) sheets without the need for post-annealing processes. This is described as rheologically derived RGO. The large-area GO sh…

Three-dimensional (3D) nanowire (NW) networks are promising architectures for effectively translating the extraordinary properties of one-dimensional objects into a 3D space. However, to uniformly grow NWs in a 3D confined space is a serious challenge due to the coupling between crystal growth and precursor concentrat…
