The simulation study on Frenkel pair creation in vanadium by L.A. Zepeda-Ruiz et al. (Phys. Rev. B 67, 134114, 2003) is criticized for its lack of reference to existing experimental work and for generally inadequate treatment of literature data. Hence, the validity of the ensuing discussion of various results (e.g. th…

From a multiple scale analysis, we find an analytic solution of spherical and cylindrical Poisson-Boltzmann theory for both a 1:2 (monovalent co-ions, divalent counter-ions) and a 2:1 (reversed situation) electrolyte. Our approach consists in an expansion in powers of rescaled curvature $1/(κa)$, where $a$ is the coll…

We report here the first synthesis of pure boron single-wall nanotubes by reaction of BCl 3 with H 2 over an Mg−MCM-41 catalyst with parallel, uniform diameter (36 ± 1 Å) cylindrical pores. The composition of the tubular structures observed in TEM was confirmed by electron energy loss spectroscopy, and the tubular geo…

The flowerlike ZnO nanostructures, which consisted of swordlike ZnO nanorods, have been prepared by a cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB)-assisted hydrothermal process at low temperature (120 °C). The XRD pattern indicated that the flowerlike ZnO nanostructures were hexagonal. Furthermore, the SAED and HRTEM reveale…

A new circular position sensor based on giant magnetoresistances has been developed. The sensing film is an AgCo nanogranular thin film patterned in a circular Wheatstone bridge configuration. This alloy shows a high magnetoresistance (8%) at room temperature within the field generated by an NdFeB permanent magnet tha…

Multilayers of alternately adsorbing poly(allylamine) (PAH) and poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) of opposite charges on silica have been studied by the spin labeling technique, as a function of pH. The two polyelectrolytes have been labeled independently by a nitroxide free radical. Its electron paramagnetic resonance spectru…

The local and intermediate structure of a simulated metal−metalloid glass-forming alloy is reported. The model, due to Kob and Andersen, has been the subject of considerable study in the context of the glass transition. In the A 75 B 25 mixture the low-temperature coordination polyhedra about the B (“metalloid”) parti…

We investigate, using small-angle neutron scattering (SANS), the polymer concentration fluctuations in a particular type of end-linked polystyrene gels, in the swollen state. These gels are obtained from the cross-linking of well-defined end-capped low-polydispersity chains end-linked through a trifunctional cross-lin…

Silica monoliths with ordered arrays of micrometer-scale columns were fabricated from polyacrylamide gel templates. The preparation of the template involves the charged comonomer, N-acryloyl glycine, and is controlled by an externally applied electric field. This approach gives rise to the self-organization of columna…

Abstract The thermal degradation and flame retardancy of poly(butylene terephthalate) (PBT) were studied with a focus on the effect of phosphorous compounds. Thermogravimetric analysis, pyrolysis/gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (Py/GC/MS), and elemental analysis were used to analyze the flame retardancy, which we…
