An accurate force-field has been parametrized for PET and is employed to simulate a long chain, consisting of 120 repeat units, over a wide temperature and pressure range, for long time scales. The force field has been validated against the experimental results for the pressure−volume−temperature properties, the chara…

We show by pump-probe spectroscopy that the optical response of a fishnet metamaterial can be modulated on the femtosecond time scale. The modulation dynamics is dominated by pump-induced changes in the constituting dielectric medium, but the strength of modulation is dramatically enhanced through the plasmon resonanc…

The nonlinear elastic response of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) in torsion is derived with objective molecular dynamics and a density-functional-based tight-binding model. The critical strain beyond which CNTs behave nonlinearly, the most favorable rippling morphology, and the twist- and morphology-related changes in fundam…

Abstract The dynamic viscoelastic properties of uncrosslinked and dynamically crosslinked blends of polypropylene (PP) and ethylene octene copolymer (EOC) were investigated in the melt state to study the mechanism of reinforcement, influence of particle size, and kinetics of modulus recovery. Dynamic vulcanization was…

We present block copolymer multiple patterning as an efficient and truly scalable nanolithography for sub-20 nm scale patterning, synergistically integrated with conventional ArF lithography. The directed assembly of block copolymers on chemically patterned substrates prepared by ArF lithography generated linear verti…

In many hyperspectral applications it is beneficial to produce 2D spatial images with a single exposure at a few selected wavelength bands instead of 1D spatial and all spectral band images like in push-broom instruments. VTT has developed a new concept based on the Piezo actuated Fabry-Perot Interferometer to enable…

Poly(oligo(ethylene glycol) methacrylate) (POEGMA) brushes are extremely protein resistant polymer coatings that can reduce nonspecific adsorption of proteins from complex mixtures such as blood, sera and plasma. These coatings can be prepared via atom transfer radical polymerization with excellent control of their th…

Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor (MOS) structures containing 74Ge nanocrystals (NC-Ge) imbedded inside the SiO_2 layer were studied for their capacitance characterization. Ge atoms were introduced by implantation of 74Ge+ ions with energy of 150 keV into relatively thick (~640nm) amorphous SiO_2 films. The experimental chara…

We present magnetotransport studies performed on an extended set of (Ga,Mn)As samples at 4.2 K with longitudinal conductivities ${\ensuremath{\sigma}}_{xx}$ ranging from the low-conductivity to the high-conductivity regime. The anomalous Hall conductivity ${\ensuremath{\sigma}}_{xy}^{(\text{AH})}$ is extracted from th…

Theory of diffusion-mediated reactions is already established for the target problem in the dilute limit, where the immobile target is surrounded by many quenchers. For lattice random walks in the crowded situation, each quencher is surrounded by other quenchers differently. As a result, each quencher migrates differe…

Time-resolved Raman spectroscopy has been applied to probe the anharmonic coupling and electron-phonon interaction of optical phonons in graphite. From the decay of the transient anti-Stokes scattering of the $G$-mode following ultrafast excitation, we measured a lifetime of $2.2\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.1\text{ }…

The ability to determine the structure of matter in three dimensions has profoundly advanced our understanding of nature. Traditionally, the most widely used schemes for 3D structure determination of an object are implemented by acquiring multiple measurements over various sample orientations, as in the case of crysta…

Abstract Phototuning of more than 2000 nm is demonstrated in an azobenzene‐based cholesteric liquid crystal (azo‐CLC) consisting of a high‐helical‐twisting‐power, axially chiral bis(azo) molecule (QL76). Phototuning range and rate are compared as a function of chiral dopant concentration, light intensity, and thicknes…
