The dependence of Ni Curie temperature, ${\mathit{T}}_{\mathit{C}}$, on the Ni thickness in Co-Ni and Ag-Ni multilayers is reported. It is shown that ${\mathit{T}}_{\mathit{C}}$ increases 60 \ifmmode^\circ\else\textdegree\fi{}C for the Co-Ni samples, as the Ni thickness decreases from 100 to 50 \AA{}. The difference i…

We have developed a new method for fabrication of microstructures. Using a Si 3 N 4 membrane with small windows as a mask, a metal film with fine structure is vacuum deposited directly onto a substrate. By means of piezoelectric actuators which slide the mask on the substrate, we have fabricated an array of Al/AlO x /…

In-plane alignment of nematic liquid crystals was regulated by polarized-light-irradiation of a cell assembled with a silica plate, the surface of which was modified by attaching 4-hexyl-4′-hexyloxyazobenzene at its o-position through surface silylation. The photoisomerizability of the chemisorbed azo-chromophore was…

The influence of granule character and compaction on the mechanical properties of sintered silicon nitride was studied as a function of the pH of the spray‐dry slurry. The character and the compaction behavior of the spray‐dried silicon nitride granules considerably affect the mechanical properties of the sintered bod…

High-resolution heat-capacity, optical reflectivity, and electron-diffraction measurements have been conducted on thin free-standing films of a liquid-crystal compound exhibiting the smectic-$A$---hexatic-$B$---crystal-$B$ transitions. Despite the absence of herringbone order, the liquid-hexatic transition in extremel…

Abstract Structural transformations of illite-smectite samples of hydrothermal genesis with increasing contents of illite layers were studied by X-ray powder diffraction. The samples were K-saturated and subjected to wetting and drying cycles to increase three-dimensional structural ordering. Diffraction profiles were…

The structures of six crystalline inclusion complexes of cyclotriveratrylene (1) (CTV) containing water, toluene, bromobenzene, chloroform, acetone and dimethoxyethane have been determined by X-ray crystallography. Four are of the α phase whilst the other two are the first reported structures of the β phase. Based upo…

It is proposed that quasicrystal structure determination should include the calculation of cohesive energies using realistic potentials. A class of atomic decoration models for $i$-AlMn is then presented, adopting the "canonical-cell" tiling geometry, with "Mackay icosahedron" clusters placed on all its nodes. The rem…

The effect of the morphology of second phases in sintered microstructure on the thermal conductivity of AIN ceramics was investigated. When an Y 2 O 3 ‐doped AIN specimen was cooled down slowly at a rate of 3°C/min after sintering at 1850° or 1900°C, the second phases were concentrated in the corners of the AIN grains…

The P13K SH3 domain, residues 1 to 85 of the P1-3 kinase p85 subunit, has been characterized by X-ray diffraction. Crystals belonging to space group P4(3)2(1)2 diffract to 2.0 angstroms resolution and the structure was phased by single isomorphous replacement and anomalous scattering (SIRAS). As expected, the domain i…

The properties of α‐sexithiophene (α‐T 6 ), e.g., the pronounced one‐dimensionality of the molecule (see Figure), the layered crystal packing, and the low exciton binding energy, make it a very interesting material for electronic and optoelectronic applications. Investigations into the origin of its optical gap and co…

Since their discovery in the 1960s, shape memory alloys have been developed for a wide range of applications. However, it was not until the 1970s that the use of memory metals in medicine started to receive attention. Since then, a multitude of clinical functions have been looked into, all of which use the Nickel-Tita…
