Abstract In situ anionic ring opening polymerization is used to prepare monomer casting polyamide 6 (MCPA6)/carbon nanotubes (CNTs) nanocomposites, whereby water is used as auxiliary dispersing agent of hydroxyl functionalized multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs‐OH) and ε‐caprolactam (CL) monomer. The MWNTs‐OH were di…

Poly(2,2′-dioxy-1,1′-biphenyl)phosphazene ( I ) is a weak base that can be reversibly protonated with HBF 4 in acetone. Acidic degradation of poly(2,2′-dioxy-1,1′-biphenyl)phosphazene was experimentally performed using HBF 4, HCl, and H 2 SO 4 yielding the same polymer I with lower molecular weights. The reaction take…

A straightforward, facile synthesis of diamidodipyrromethenes (diamidodipyrrins, DADP (R,R')) is presented. These tetradentate ligands readily form complexes with metal ions such as Ni (2+) and Cu (2+) and can adopt different binding modes with these metals. One version of the ligand (DADP (Ph, iPr )) has been structu…

We study the dependence of optical nonlinearities in As(2)Se(3) glass on the incident pulse-width using the Z-scan technique. In this work, 11.5-ns optical pulses from a Nd:YAG laser operating at 1.064 mum were compressed up to 1.6 ns by using stimulated Brillouin scattering in heavy fluorocarbon liquid, where the dur…

Carbon onions can be set in a state of heavy self-compression when irradiated with an electron beam. Annealing at high temperature relaxes the structure by an exchange of atoms between the shells. This gives us the possibility tostudy atom jumps quantitatively.

Percolation in nanoporous gold can be achieved with as little as 8% by volume of gold. Samples of nanoporous gold of various morphologies are analyzed with a combination of electrical and optical data. Growing thin films and complex multiply connected three-dimensional networks both display nonuniversal character. Gro…

A two-step high field anodization and a controllable barrier layer removing process have been used for the fabrication of porous anodic alumina (PAA) with different morphologies. Based on the PAAs, porous noble metal films with widely tunable pore size and inter-pore distance have been realized by a simple sputtering…

We present the results of measurements of conductivity and dielectric permittivity of the quasi-two-dimensional organic salt θ-(BEDT-TTF) 2 CsZn(SCN) 4 along the in-plane direction in a wide temperature range from room temperature down to liquid helium temperature. At temperatures below about 20 K the ac conductivity…

The intermediate valence compound Ce 2Ni 2Mg absorbs irreversibly hydrogen when exposed under 1 MPa of H 2 pressure at room temperature. The resulting hydride Ce 2Ni 2MgH 7.7 is stable in air and crystallizes as the deuteride La 2Ni 2MgD 8 in a monoclinic structure (space group P2 1 /c) with the unit cell parameters a…

We study the spin-wave excitations near the zigzag edge of graphene. It is rather interesting that we obtain a single branch of relativistic ferromagnetic magnon due to the presence of the open boundary. Note that magnons in antiferromagnets appear in pairs, while the single branch magnon in ferromagnets does not have…
