A model for the dynamical behavior of a hysteretic elastic system is introduced and studied numerically. This model consists of a chain of hysteretic elastic elements. Each elastic element is a spring with properties that depend on an Ising-like state variable having Brownian dynamics in an energy landscape with struc…

The temperature dependence of electrical properties for SrBi2Ta2O9 thin film capacitors with platinum electrodes (Pt/SBT/Pt) on silicon wafers was studied from 10 to 300 K. With a decrease in temperature from 300 to 200 K, the remanent polarization of the thin films shows about an 11% reduction from its 300 K value; h…

We report the magnetic properties and magnetoresistance (MR) in small iron oxide (Fe3−xO4 and Fe3O4) cluster assemblies. Half-metallic Fe3O4 cluster assembly with grain size of 10–15 nm is shown to exhibit a MR value of about 8% at T=30 K and a peak around the Verwey transition temperature Tv=115 K which is a little l…

Polypyrrole (PPy) nanotubes were synthesized using the pores of track-etched polycarbonate membrane as a template. Its size depends on the pore diameter of template, range from 50 to 200 nm. Direct I–V measurements of PPy nanotube (diameter of 120 nm) deposited on Au were done using a metal-coated tapping-mode atomic-…

Highly-ordered arrays of Ni-filled carbon nanotubes have been fabricated by a second-order template method. First, an array of aligned carbon nanotubes was generated in a porous alumina membrane by catalytic pyrolysis of acetylene. The desired material, such as nickel, was then filled into the aligned carbon nanotubes…

Abstract A series of six polyurethanes were prepared to study the effect of silicon chain extender structure on properties and morphology of siloxane–polyurethanes. Polyurethanes were prepared by a two‐step bulk polymerization without a catalyst. The soft segment of the polyurethanes was based on an 80:20 (w/w) mixtur…

Abstract Polymer microspheres are obtained by the dropwise addition of a precipitant, containing a polymeric stabilizer, into a polymer solution, containing a polymeric stabilizer. The polymer and stabilizer concentrations, the stirring speed, and the precipitation temperature determine the size and size uniformity of…

The electrochemical properties of individual multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) coated with an amorphous carbon layer are reported. MWNTs were etched at potentials more positive than 1.7 V vs. Ag/AgCl (3 M NaCl) in an aqueous 0.1 M KCl electrolyte solution. The logarithm of etching rate was proportional to the applied…

The rate of addition of the internal phase influences the catastrophic inversion of emulsions in the direction of change from abnormal to normal morphology. At a low addition rate, the inversion takes place after a small amount of the internal phase is added, and it happens through the occurrence of multiple emulsion…

Alternating electrostatic deposition of poly(amic acid) salts and poly (allylamine hydrochloride) (PAH) followed by heat-induced imidization yields ultrathin, gas-selective polyimide membranes on porous alumina supports. These membranes are appealing because of the stability and selectivity of polyimides and the fact…

The feasibility of ultrasound-induced in situ radical formation in liquid carbon dioxide was demonstrated. The required threshold pressure for cavitation could be exceeded at a relatively low acoustic intensity, as the high vapor pressure of CO2 counteracts the hydrostatic pressure. With the use of a dynamic bubble mo…
