Slow dynamics of energy transfer between different phonon modes under the resonance conditions is considered. It may result in new effects in the inelastic and quasielastic neutron scattering spectra.
Field-induced magnetization jumps with similar characteristics are observed at low temperature for the intermetallic germanide ${\mathrm{Gd}}_{5}{\mathrm{Ge}}_{4}$ and the mixed-valent manganite ${\mathrm{Pr}}_{0.6}{\mathrm{Ca}}_{0.4}{\mathrm{Mn}}_{0.96}{\mathrm{Ga}}_{0.04}{\mathrm{O}}_{3}.$ We report that the field l…
The pitting corrosion of copper in chloride solution has been studied using potentiostatic polarisation and surface analysis techniques. X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) results enabled conclusions to be drawn about the nature of the film formed in different chloride concentrations. In dilute chloride solutions…
Supercritical Carbon Dioxide Extraction-Mediated Amendment of a Manganese Oxide Surface Desired to Selectively Transform Nitrogen Oxides and/or Ammonia,
A tutorial introduction to the technique of molecular dynamics (MD) is given, and some characteristic examples of applications are described. The purpose and scope of these simulations and the relation to other simulation methods is discussed, and the basic MD algorithms are described. The sampling of intensive variab…
Phase separation into controllable patterned microstructures was observed for Bombyx mori silkworm silk and poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) (900000 g/mol) blends cast from solution. The evolution of the microstructures with increasing PEO volume fraction is strikingly similar to the progression of phases and microstructure…
We propose a two-step approach to functionalize gold nanoparticles prepared by reducing tetrachloroauric acid by trisodium citrate in water. The chloride and citrate physisorbed on the gold nanoparticles are first displaced by thioctic acid (TA), which is then exchanged by thiols containing the desired functionality d…
Well-ordered mesoporous silicate films were prepared by infusion and selective condensation of silicon alkoxides within microphase-separated block copolymer templates dilated with supercritical carbon dioxide. Confinement of metal oxide deposition to specific subdomains of the preorganized template yields high-fidelit…
Focuses on recent advances in research on block copolymers, covering chemistry (synthesis), physics (phase behaviors, rheology, modeling), and applications (melts and solutions). Written by a team of internationally respected scientists from industry and academia, this text compiles and reviews the expanse of research…
Three fabrication techniques, freeze-drying, salt leaching and gas foaming, were used to form porous three-dimensional silk biomaterial matrixes. Matrixes were characterized for morphological and functional properties related to processing method and conditions. The porosity of the salt leached scaffolds varied betwee…
Ferroelectric oxide materials have offered a tantalizing potential for applications since the discovery of ferroelectric perovskites more than 50 years ago. Their switchable electric polarization is ideal for use in devices for memory storage and integrated microelectronics, but progress has long been hampered by diff…
Abstract The optical properties of excitonic recombinations in bulk, n‐type ZnO are investigated by photoluminescence (PL) and spatially resolved cathodoluminescence (CL) measurements. At liquid helium temperature in undoped crystals the neutral donor bound excitons dominate in the PL spectrum. Two electron satellite…
A capillary-induced phase separation (CIPS) can arise in a polymer solution enclosed between two walls, provided the solution is close to phase separation. Here the CIPS phenomenon is investigated in binary and quasi-binary polymer solutions by a mean-field lattice theory. A quasi-binary polymer solution represents a…
Abstract This study made use of poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) samples of different molecular weights, which were reacted with a diisocyanate ester, and an anion center for the synthesis of polyurethane (PU), which was then mixed with chitosan to form a polymer adsorbent. It was tested for the determination of its adsorp…
Abstract The crystallization behavior of a series of poly(ethylene‐ co ‐butylene naphthalate) (PEBN) random copolymers was studied. Wide‐angle X‐ray diffraction (WAXD) patterns showed that the crystallization of these copolymers could occur over the entire range of compositions. This resulted in the formation of poly(…
Abstract A series of new polymerized monomer reactants (PMR) matrix resins of poly(pyrrolone‐benzimidazole)s containing a pyridine unit (PPBP) were synthesized by polycondensation of monoethyl ester of cis ‐5‐norbornene‐endo‐2,3‐dicarboxylic acid, 2,6‐diphenyl ester pyridinedicarboxylic acid or 3,5‐diphenyl ester pyri…
The porous structure of a CVD (chemical vapor deposition) layer on silicalite zeolite was studied in detailed by TEM (transmission electron microscopy). The pore mouth of silicalite was suggested to be narrowed by CVD on the basis of the adsorption results, where the rate of 1-methylpentane adsorption decreased as the…
The potentiometric response characteristics of polycation-sensitive membrane electrodes toward two classes of polycationic dendrimers are examined. Using appropriately formulated polymer membrane electrodes composed of a dinonylnaphthalenesulfonate (DNNS) salt in a plasticized polyurethane matrix, it is shown that pol…
We have developed a box length search algorithm to efficiently find the appropriate box dimensions for constant-volume molecular simulation of periodic structures. The algorithm works by finding the box lengths that equalize the pressure in each direction while maintaining constant total volume. Maintaining the volume…
This issue is dedicated to Regents' Professor John Maxwell Cowley, FRS, in recognition of his lifelong contributions to electron microscopy, diffraction, and crystallography. This collection of 22 peer-reviewed articles is based on presentations made at the international workshop entitled “Recent Developments and Appl…
