Structure, magnetization, and dielectric permittivity of (1-x)BiFeO3-xBaTiO3 (BFO-BT) ceramics have been studied as a function of BT content (x = 0.0, 0.1, 0.2, and 0.3). In situ synchrotron x-ray diffraction result of BFO reveals a rhombohedral (R)–orthorhombic (O)–cubic (C) phase transition near 820 and 850 °C upon…

Nanocomposite magnets (NCMs) consisting of hard and soft magnetic phases are expected to be instrumental in overcoming the current theoretical limit of magnet performance. In this study, structural analyses were performed on L1(0)-FePd/α-Fe NCMs with various hard/soft volume fractions, which were formed by annealing P…

We study optimal interfacial structures in multiferroic materials with a biquadratic coupling between two order parameters. We discover a new duality relation between the strong coupling and the weak coupling regime for the case of isotropic gradient terms. We analyze the phase diagram depending on the coupling consta…

The structural evolution of a body-centered cubic (bcc) superlattice of 6.6 nm diameter organic ligand-coated PbSe nanocrystals was studied in situ by small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) as it was heated in air from room temperature to 350°C. As it was heated above room temperature, the superlattice contracted slightl…

Ion beams can be used to permanently bend and re-align nanowires after growth. We have irradiated ZnO nanowires with energetic ions, achieving bending and alignment in different directions. Not only the bending of single nanowires is studied in detail, but also the simultaneous alignment of large ensembles of ZnO nano…

Abstract Polymers which enrich semiconducting single‐walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) and are also removable after enrichment are highly desirable for achieving high‐performance field‐effect transistors (FETs). We have designed and synthesized a new class of alternating copolymers containing main‐chain fluorene and hyd…

Giant negative thermal expansion (NTE), over α = −30 × 10−6 K−1 (α: coefficient of linear thermal expansion), at room temperature can be achieved in Mn3ZnN-based antiperovskite manganese nitrides by simultaneous substitution of C and B for N as well as Sn for Zn. The developed NTE nitrides show larger negative α, alth…

Aluminium alloys and low carbon steel exhibit a transient work-hardening rate when the strain path is abruptly modified. The underlying physical mechanisms are latent hardening in the case of cross-loading and massive disappearance of the dislocations pertaining to prestrain when the loading stress is reversed. The mo…

This paper presents a compact model for the current-voltage characteristics of graphene field-effect transistors (GFETs), which is based on an extension of the “virtual-source” model previously proposed for Si MOSFETs and is valid for both saturation and nonsaturation regions of device operation. This GFET virtual-sou…

A nanocomposite is a multiphase material derived from the combination of two or more components, including a matrix (continuous phase) and a discontinuous nano-dimensional phase with at least one nano-sized dimension (i. e., with less than 100 nm). The nanodimensional phase can be divided into three categories accordi…
