Abstract NMR spectroscopy has served as a powerful tool to discriminate between the various types of subunits present in hyperbranched polymers. This discrimination is critical for the determination of degree of branching ( DB ), which is an important structural parameter that distinguishes hyperbranched structures fr…

Thermodynamic analysis shows that 180° ferroelectric domains under an external electric field behave as elastic domains due to the converse piezoelectric effect. The interdomain elastic interaction between 180° ferroelectric domains is an important factor in determining the effective dielectric and piezoelectric respo…

The frequency dependence of the dynamical-mode locking phenomena in the ac driven dissipative Frenkel-Kontorova model is studied by the molecular-dynamics simulations. It was found that the Shapiro steps exhibit very strong frequency dependence influenced by the amplitude of ac force. At the low frequencies, in the la…

The authors propose a method to control the viewing angle of a liquid crystal (LC) panel using dual-mode switching. To realize both wide viewing angle (WVA) characteristics and narrow viewing angle (NVA) characteristics with a single LC panel, the authors use two different dark states. The LC layer can be aligned homo…
