By irradiation with linearly polarized light at 366 nm, alignment change was generated in polymer liquid crystals ( MACB-AB n, n = 3, 6, and 11) with different spacer lengths of the azobenzene units but the same enthalpic stability of the liquid-crystalline phase. Polarized IR spectra revealed that the polymer main ch…

We present a united atom force field for simulations of 1,4-polybutadiene based on ab initio quantum chemistry calculations on model molecules. The geometries and energies of conformers and rotational energy barriers in model alkenes and dienes have been determined from high-level quantum chemistry calculations. A rot…

Viscoelastic properties of reversible networks formed in solutions of associating polymers are considered theoretically in the Rouse−Zimm (unentangled) regime. It is shown that the dynamics is governed primarily by the network strand size and by the effective lifetime of reversible junctions. Both frequency and concen…

The optical activity of Er-doped silicon is related to the presence of defects which enhance the typical radiative transition at 0.8 eV but whose nature and properties are still largely unknown. We have investigated the deep levels present in Er-doped liquid phase epitaxy silicon to identify the traps possibly related…

We have grown epitaxial strontium titanate films on lanthanum aluminate substrates at a range of oxygen pressures and substrate temperatures. The complex dielectric function was measured as a function of temperature and electric field bias using a microwave ring resonator and a flip-chip technique. The films having th…

Magnetostriction at room temperature under various conditions of compressive prestress and applied fields of TbyDy1−y(Fe1−xTx)2 (T=Al, Mn) twin-free single crystals was investigated. The substitution of Al or Mn for Fe lowers the magnetostriction under ordinary temperature and pressure, and decreases the saturation fi…

A simple two-step process is reported here to deposit diamond coatings on titanium alloys at temperatures equal to or lower than 600 °C. The first step allows us to increase the carbon nucleation rate and to deposit a sacrificial layer which contains more than about 25% sp2 carbon. Its thickness is selected both to li…

A Raman-scattering study performed on ( -BBO) at room temperature allows us to assign all the vibrational modes detected in the Raman spectra. The internal and external vibration modes are properly obtained by taking account of the light polarization, mode contamination and isotope effects. A correspondence between th…

In this Letter we describe measurements of the light emission evolution for single-bubble sonoluminescence. In particular, we show that the evolution of intensity for an air bubble depends on whether or not the bubble has previously been in a steady sonoluminescence state. Our results provide strong experimental evide…

The dielectric relaxation of Ba0.7Sr0.3TiO3 thin films was investigated up to K band (20 GHz) using time domain and frequency domain measurements. Our results show that from 1 mHz to 20 GHz, the dielectric relaxation of the complex capacitance of Ba0.7Sr0.3TiO3 thin films can be understood in terms of a power law depe…

We report x-ray diffraction measurements of the structure factor S ( Q ) and the radial distribution function g ( r ) of levitated liquid silicon in the stable and supercooled states. Supercooling results in a sharpening of the first peak in S ( Q ) and shift to an 8% higher Q value, the appearance of a double shoulde…
