This textbook gives a clear and thorough presentation of the fundamental principles of mechanics and strength of materials.It provides both the theory and applications of mechanics of materials on an intermediate theoretical level, from the mechanical properties through the effects of axial load, torsion, bending, and…
Silver nanoparticles have received considerable attention due to their attractive physical and chemical properties. The surface plasmon resonance and large effective scattering cross section of individual silver nanoparticles make them ideal candidates for molecular labeling, where phenomena such as surface enhance Ra…
We report on the first observation of a pronounced re-entrant superconductivity phenomenon in superconductor/ferromagnetic layered systems. The results were obtained using a superconductor/ferromagnetic-alloy bilayer of Nb/Cu(1-x)Ni(x). The superconducting transition temperature T_{c} drops sharply with increasing thi…
Contrary to a broadly accepted assumption we show that random (Ga,In)P is not an exception with respect to the crude classification of the phonon mode behavior of random mixed crystals in terms of 1-bond->1-mode systems or 2-bond->1-mode systems, as established from the simple criterion derived by Elliott et al. [Rev.…
The discovery of ordered mesoporous materials (OMMs) synthesized in the presence of surfactant templates was a significant breakthrough in the field of porous materials. OMMs offer unprecedented potential for the immobilization of catalysts because of their large pore spaces, ordered pore sizes, and relatively homogen…
Nanofibers are able to form a highly porous mesh and their large surface-to-volume ratio improves performance for many applications. Electrospinning has the unique ability to produce nanofibers of different materials in various fibrous assemblies. The relatively high production rate and simplicity of the setup makes e…
This work presents evidence for line-narrowing from the UV photoexcited open form of the photochromic molecule, indolinospiropyran (1',3'-dihydro-1',3',3'-trimethyl-6-nitrospiro [2H-1-benzopyran-2,2'-(2H)-indole]) in the solid state. The line-narrowing is attributable to amplified spontaneous emission induced by optic…
Abstract Calcium carbonate (CaCO3) thin films with periodic surface patterns are formed on thin film matrices of a polysaccharide derivative from a solution containing poly(acrylic acid) (PAA). The morphologies of the patterned films have been tuned by the change of molecular weights of the PAA.
Selective formation of metallic Ag and semiconducting Ag(2)S nanocrystals has been achieved via a modified hot-injection process from a single-source precursor molecule, Ag(SCOPh), which can potentially generate both [Ag] and [AgS] fragments simultaneously. When the precursor molecules are injected into a preheated re…
The effect of high concentrations of large gold particles, in the hundreds of nanometer size regime, on the yields of molecular hydrogen, G(H(2)), produced in the radiolysis of several aqueous solutions was determined. In particular we look for direct effect of radiation absorbed by the solid particles on the yield of…
We report on a high-resolution, high-statistics, quasielastic neutron scattering (QENS) experiment on liquid water, aimed at accurately measuring the pressure dependence of the single-particle dynamic response function at low wave vector transfers, namely, from 0.26 to 1.32 A(-1). High-pressure QENS data were collecte…
While it is well-known that tube-tube interaction causes changes (peak red-shift and suppression) in the optical absorption of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs), we found in this work that, upon bundling, the optical absorption of metallic SWNTs (M11) is less affected compared to their semiconducting counterparts…
Quaterthiophenes containing a median 3,3'-dimethoxybithiophene (4MTZ) or bis(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (4ETZ) block and an azobenzene group attached at two internal beta-positions of the end thiophene rings have been synthesized. The analysis of the crystal structure of the two compounds by X-ray diffraction shows t…
Poly[( R )-3-hydroxybutyrate] (P(3HB)) single crystals were grown isothermally at different crystallization temperatures ( T c s) in a dilute solution. Structural changes of the sedimented single-crystal mats on heating were followed by real-time synchrotron small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) and wide-angle X-ray dif…
A computationally efficient strategy, based on a resistance-in-series and resistance-in-parallel approach, is developed for obtaining diffusivities when nanometer-sized flakes are introduced in a polymer matrix. The mass-transfer resistance is properly defined, and several examples are presented to demonstrate the rel…
We have designed new compounds within the homologous series Ae2F2M(1+n)X(3+n) (Ae = Sr, Ba; M = main group metal; n = integer) built up from the stacking of 2D building blocks of rock salt and fluorite types. By incrementally increasing the size of the rock salt 2D building blocks, we have obtained two new n = 1 membe…
[reaction: see text] A facile method for the synthesis of pyrrolidin-2-one fused N-confused calix[4]phyrins is provided by reactions of 5,10,15,20-tetraaryl-2-aza-21-carbaporphyrin with acyl chlorides in the presence of triethylamine. The (1)H NMR and UV-vis spectra of products indicate their loss of macrocyclic aroma…
Mass transport of pure nitrogen, pure oxygen, and their mixture (air) has been studied at 100 K in a single wall carbon nanotube of 12.53 A diameter. Phenomenological coefficients, and self- and corrected diffusivities are calculated using molecular-dynamics simulations, and transport diffusivities are obtained by com…
In this article we present the synthesis of oil core silica shell nanocapsules with different shell thicknesses. The surface of the nanocapsules was modified with polyethyleoxide (PEO) and succinic anhydride. Two biomedical tests were then used to study the biocompatibility properties of these nanocapsules with differ…
Photochromophores such as cis-stilbene (1a), metacyclophenadiene (2a), and the diarylethene 3a undergo photoinduced conrotatory opening and closing of a central bond and are currently being sought out as potential candidates for media within 3D optical information storage devices. Strong molecular two-photon absorptio…
