Natural selection is believed to be an unforgiving and relentless force in the evolution of life on earth. An organism that cannot adapt to a changing environment or an environment hostile to cell functions is at risk as a species. So it is important to understand the mechanisms used by plants, animals, and microorgan…
Novel organic solar cells prepared using quaternary self-organization of porphyrin (donor) and fullerene (acceptor) dye units by clusterization with gold nanoparticles on SnO2 electrodes exhibit the remarkable enhancement of the photoelectrochemical properties relative to the reference systems.
SrRuO3 is an itinerant ferromagnet and in its thin film form when grown on miscut SrTiO3 it has Tc of ~ 150 K and strong uniaxial anisotropy. We measured both the Hall effect and the magnetoresistance (MR) of the films as a function of the angle between the applied field and the normal to the films at temperatures abo…
By using the extraordinary Hall effect in SrRuO3 films we performed sensitive measurements of the paramagnetic susceptibility in this itinerant ferromagnet, from Tc (~ 150 K) to 300 K. These measurements, combined with measurements of magnetoresistance, reveal that the susceptibility, which is almost isotropic at 300…
The spin dynamics of the ferromagnetic pinned layer of ferro-antiferromagnetic coupled NiFe/MnNi bilayers is investigated in a broad frequency range (30 MHz-6 GHz). A phenomenological model based on the Landau-Lifshitz equation for the complex permeability of the F/AF bilayer is proposed. The experimental results are…
Nonmagnetic particles in a carrier ferrofluid acquire an effective dipolar moment when placed in an external magnetic field. This fact leads them to form chains that will roughen due to Brownian motion when the magnetic field is decreased. We study this process through experiments, theory and simulations, three method…
This paper describes a model for magnetization reversal in polycrystalline Ferromagnetic/Antiferromagnetic exchange biased bilayers. We assume that the exchange energy can be expanded into cosine power series. We show that it is possible to fit experimental asymmetric shape of hysteresis loops in exchange biased bilay…
In this paper we perform a Quantal Density Functional Theory (Q-DFT) study of the Hydrogen molecule in its ground state.
Nonmagnetic spheres confined in a ferrofluid layer (magnetic holes) present dipolar interactions when an external magnetic field is exerted. The interaction potential of a microsphere pair is derived analytically, with a precise care for the boundary conditions along the glass plates confining the system. Considering…
Proteins exhibit a solvent-driven dynamical transition at 180-220 K, manifested by nonlinearity in the temperature dependence of the average mean-square displacement. Here, molecular dynamics simulations of hydrated myoglobin show that the onset of the transition at approximately 180 K is characterized by the appearan…
Several recently proposed semi--automatic and fully--automatic coarse--graining schemes for polymer simulations are discussed. All these techniques derive effective potentials for multi--atom units or super--atoms from atomistic simulations. These include techniques relying on single chain simulations in vacuum and se…
The studies of interaction of the UV photons with bulk and nanocristalline silicon by time-of-flight (TOF) mass-spectrometry allowed to reveal two populations of Si ion monomers. The first rapid population ejected even at low laser fluences is attributed to Colombian repulsion between the surface charges which are ind…
We study low-temperature nucleation in kinetic Ising models by analytical and simulational methods, confirming the general result for the average metastable lifetime, = A*exp(beta*Gamma) (beta = 1/kT) [E. Jordao Neves and R.H. Schonmann, Commun. Math. Phys. 137, 209 (1991)]. Contrary to common belief, we find that bot…
Abstract This article describes the development of novel nanocrystalline poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) for potential applications in PVC processes and reports improvements in the mechanical properties and thermal resistance. Before the preparation of nanocrystalline PVC via jet milling, PVC was spray‐treated and heat‐tre…
Abstract Organic–inorganic hybrid materials synthesized by the sol–gel process have been developed for several years. This synthesis method can effectively overcome the defects of conventional composite materials. In this investigation, epoxy/SiO 2 hybrid material was synthesized by a sol–gel process with a precursor…
Lanthanide nitrate complexes with the heptadentate ligand L (6-[2-(2-(diethylamino)-2-oxoethoxy)ethyl]-N,N,12-triethyl-11-oxo-3,9-dioxa-6,12-diazatetradecanamide), [Ln(2)L(NO(3))(6)] (Ln = La, Nd, Sm, Eu, Ho), have been prepared and characterized. The X-ray crystallographic studies show that, in [La(2)L(NO(3))(6)(H(2)…
Abstract Pyromellitic dianhydride (1,2,4,5‐benzenetetracarboxylic acid 1,2,4,5‐dianhydide) (1) was reacted with L‐phenylalanine (2) in a mixture of acetic acid and pyridine (3 : 2) at room temperature, then was refluxed at 90–100°C and N,N ′‐(Pyromellitoyl)‐bis‐ L ‐phenylalanine diacid (3) was obtained in quantitative…
The fluorescence properties of a monolayer of labeled avidin molecules were studied near silver island films. We first adsorbed a monolayer of biotinylated-BSA as a base that was used to capture labeled avidin molecules. For labeled avidin on silver island films, we observed an increase of the fluorescence intensity o…
This paper reports a structural study of the effect of TiO 2 substitution for Bi 2 O 3 in x Na 2 O− x P 2 O 5 − y Bi 2 O 3 − z TiO 2 glasses, which were formulated in order to keep a constant average polymerization of the phosphate network. XANES and EXAFS analyses have indicated that the bismuth coordination sphere i…
Electron and x-ray-diffraction studies have revealed that a ${\mathrm{Cd}}_{6}\mathrm{Y}$ 1/1 crystalline approximant $(Im3\ifmmode\bar\else\textasciimacron\fi{},$ $a=1.5482\mathrm{nm})$ undergoes a phase transition at some temperature around 160 K. The transition accompanies a change of the lattice period as well as…
