The switching of the polarization in tetragonal ferroelectric ceramics can be achieved by the generation of one new 90° domain wall at the boundary of every grain and a transit of it through the grain driven by the electric field. This transient domain wall is perpendicular to the regular 90° domain walls. In any doma…

A photothermal detector consisting of a relief grating on the surface of an elastomer was fabricated and characterized. The detector has a sensitivity of the order of microwatts per square millimeter and has rise and fall times of the order of tens of seconds. Numerical and analytical modeling account for the behavior…

Abstract Photocatalytic properties of PW12O403− (abbreviated as PW123−) for the 4-chlorophenol (4-CP) decomposition was investigated by using a 300 W Xe lamp at 35 °C in aqueous media. The rate of the 4-CP decomposition was not influenced by pH in the range from 1.0 to 2.0, where PW123− is stable. In the dark, no reac…

Isopenicillin N synthase (IPNS) was cocrystallised with ferrous sulphate and its substrate, delta-(L-alpha-aminoadipoyl)-L-cysteinyl-D-valine (Aad-Cys-Val). Vital to the successful procedure was the maintenance of a rigorously anaerobic environment. Hanging-drop vapour-diffusion crystallisation experiments, using lith…

A variety of SiC-Based composites and monolithic ceramics were characterized by measuring their thermal diffusivity in the unirradiated, thermal annealed, and irradiated conditions over the temperature range 400 to 1000°C. The irradiation was conducted in the EBR-II to doses of 33 and 43 dpa-SiC (185 EFPD) at a nomina…

Abstract There are several reports indicating that deformation and breakup of dispersed drops is easier in extensional flow field than that in shear. This is particularly true for the systems containing the dispersed phase significantly more viscous than the matrix, e.g., blends in which the viscosity ratio λ – η disp…

Throughout the microstructure at every varistor, there exist variations of the grain size and the electrical properties of the individual grain boundaries. To calculate the effect of such microstructural variations on the overall electrical transport properties, we describe a multibond percolation approach utilizing e…

Small amounts of Li 2 O result in sintering in the AIN‐Y 2 O 3 ‐CaO and AIN‐CaO systems at firing temperatures <1600°C. The effect is ascribed to reduction of the liquidus temperature. Furthermore, Li 2 O is removed by volatization at temperatures from 1300° to 1600°C, and its content decreases several ppm from the…
