Reaction of doubly negatively charged m-pyridinediyl spacered bis-bidentate ligands with iron(III) chloride in the presence of alkaline, alkaline earth, and rare earth metal cations (Mn+) yielded {2}-iron cryptates {M⊂[Fe2(L)3]}n+. The mono-, di-, and tri-valent guest cations are endohedrally encapsulated in the cavit…
We prepared a set of polycrystalline samples of the thermoelectric oxide Na 1.2 Co 2- x Cu x O 4 ( x =0, 0.1, 0.2 and 0.3), and investigated the Cu substitution effects on their thermoelectric properties. The substituted Cu significantly enhances the thermopower over the temperature range from 4 to 300 K, whereas it d…
The actuality of the topics of the book is given by the developments in an emerging field of interdisciplinary applied research called biomolecular electronics. This young and dynamically developing discipline has grown out of the field of conventinal electronics and computer technology. From the early 1960s on, the a…
Samples of high-density amorphous water (HDA) were prepared by compression of hexagonal ice (ice Ih) in a piston-cylinder apparatus at 77 K up to 1.8 GPa, recovered at ambient pressure under liquid N2 and characterized by X-ray diffraction and differential scanning calorimetry. Thereafter HDA samples were reloaded int…
The prediction of high pressure phases of a chemical system is realized as a two-step process: identification of structure candidates through the global exploration of their energy landscapes over a range of different pressures, followed by a limited local optimization using ab initio methods. The application of this…
In this work, we prepared blends of bisphenol A polycarbonate (PC) and poly(ϵ-caprolactone) (PCL) in a wide composition range by melt mixing and solution mixing. Two different molecular weights of PCL were used (nominally, 10.000 g/mol, PCL10, and 80.000 g/mol, PCL80). The thermal behavior of both systems was studied…
The results and analysis of surface resistance measurements performed on nonceramic insulators (NCI) are presented in this paper. The goal of this study was to determine if the surface resistance measurement procedure can be formalized to ensure repeatable and reproducible results. The NCIs evaluated had housing mater…
Electron microscopy of human skin fibroblasts syringe-loaded with human immunodeficiency virus type 1 protease (HIV-1 PR) revealed several effects on nuclear architecture. The most dramatic is a change from a spherical nuclear morphology to one with multiple lobes or deep invaginations. The nuclear matrix collapses or…
Laboratory experiments have been conducted to determine simultaneously the self diffusivities of Si and O in synthetic dacite melt (NBO/T = 0.1) from 1 to 5.7 GPa and from 1355 to 1662 °C. Glasses enriched in 18 O and 28 Si were synthesized and mated to their isotopically normal counterparts to form diffusion couples…
The ligand 3-[2,6-bis(diethylcarbamoyl)pyridine-4-yl]-N-(tert-butoxycarbonyl)alanine methyl ester (L4) bearing a chiral group in the 4-position of the pyridine ring has been synthesised and its interaction with trivalent lanthanide ions studied. L4 yields stable [Ln(L4)3]3+ complexes in acetonitrile, with logβ3 in the…
The processing of crosslinked polyethylene foam, which has a closed-cell structure, has been investigated. In this study, two types of linear low-density polyethylene (LL) produced by a metallocene catalyst were crosslinked by dicumyl peroxide (DCP). The expansion ratio of the foams decreases with increasing the DCP c…
Interest in field emission and field emission devices has been renewed in the last 5 yr. This increase has been due to work on several new materials systems, which have shown promising field emission (FE) behavior. In turn, this interest gives impetus to the search for new FE sources. In order to move the technology a…
The pulsed electroacoustic (PEA) method already has been used widely to measure the space charge distribution in the pulsed electric field direction of sheet specimens. We have developed a new PEA measurement system which can observe the space charge distribution in three dimensions. Since the PEA system is not damage…
Silver nanowires with sizes of ∼35 nm × 300 nm are synthesized in a lamellar liquid crystalline alignment of oleate vesicles via UV irradiation under ambient conditions. The passivation of oleate amphiphiles on the surface of silver nanoparticles is utilized for the nucleation and directional growth of silver nanowire…
We have investigated the inclusion-dissociation behavior between molecular nanotubes and linear polymers in solutions by measuring the induced circular dichroism of the mixture of the molecular nanotubes, which are composed of α-cyclodextrins linked by three cross-linking bridges, and poly(ethylene glycol) modified wi…
Reaction of zerovalent copper with cobalt(II) acetate and triethanolamine (H3Tea) in DMF solution in air yields the unique pentanuclear mixed-valence complex [CuII2CoIICOIII2(O2CMe)4(H2Tea)2(Tea)2]·2(HO2CMe), 1, which has been characterized by a range of spectroscopic methods and structurally by X-ray crystallography.…
Nanostructured Ni3Al intermetallic (Ni–8.5 Al–7.8 Cr–0.6 Zr–0.02 B; in wt%) with an average grain size of 50 nm was produced using the technique of severe plastic deformation (SPD). Previous studies of Ni3Al in the as-processed state demonstrated non-equilibrium grain boundaries, indicated by a high concentration of e…
Chelate complexation of 4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-2-(6-methyl-2-pyridyl)imidazolin-1-oxyl 3-oxide (NITmepy) and 4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-2-(6-methyl-2-pyridyl)imidazolin-1-oxyl (IMmepy) to cobalt(II) chloride (bromide) or zinc(II) chloride afforded tetrahedral four-co-ordinate (T-4) complexes, [MX2(NITmepy)] and [MX2(IMmepy)] (M…
Synthesis and characterization of the monoruthenium(III)-substituted Dawson polyoxotungstate K7[α2-P2W17O61RuIII(H2O)]·19H2O 2, expected to be an effective homogeneous oxidation catalyst precursor, is described. The reaction products of cis-[RuIICl2(DMSO)4] as the ruthenium source with mono-lacunary Dawson polyoxotung…
A new technique for the fabrication of dense yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) thin-film electrolytes (between 3 and 10 μm) on porous electrode substrates has been used to make planar solid-oxide fuel cells (SOFCs). The YSZ electrolyte is strongly bonded to the Ni-YSZ and (LSM)-YSZ electrode substrates, and the power d…
