Productivity of fungal cultures is closely linked with their morphologic development. Morphogenesis of coagulating filamentous fungi, like Aspergillus niger, starts with aggregation of conidia, also denominated as spores. Several parameters are presumed to control this event, but little is known about their mode of ac…
Highly regioregular isotactic polypropylene samples containing only rr defects of stereoregularity in a wide range of concentration have been obtained with a series of regiospecific metallocene catalysts. A study of the relationships between kinetics of melt-crystallization and the microstructure of polypropylene chai…
Abstract The geometric theory of twinning was developed almost a century ago. Despite its age, it still represents the fundamental approach to the analysis and interpretation of twinned crystals, in both the direct and the reciprocal space. In recent years, this theory has been extended not only in its formalism (grou…
Novel organic conductors based on four diiodotetrathiafulvalene derivatives, DIET (2-(4,5-diiodo-[1,3]dithiol-2-ylidene)-5,6-dihydro-[1,3]dithiolo[4,5-b][1,4]dithiine), DIETSe (2-(4,5-diiodo-[1,3]diselenol-2-ylidene)-5,6-dihydro-[1,3]diselenolo[4,5-b][1,4]dithiine), DIEDO (2-(4,5-diiodo-[1,3]dithiol-2-ylidene)-5,6-dih…
We calculate the electromigration forces on ions such as adsorbed alkali metal atoms in a carbon nanotube transistor. The forces are especially large in the turn-on regime of the transistor and much smaller in the off and on states. Electromigration in the channel is driven almost exclusively by the wind force. The si…
The enantiopure amine macrocycle H(3)L, as well as the parent macrocyclic Schiff base H(3)L1, the 3 + 3 condensation product of (1R,2R)-1,2-diaminocyclohexane and 2,6-diformyl-4-methylphenol, are able to form mononuclear complexes with lanthanide(III) ions. The lanthanide(III) complexes of H(3)L have been studied in s…
The six new compounds Tl 2 CdGeTe 4, Tl 2 CdSnTe 4, Tl 2 HgGeTe 4, Tl 2 HgSnTe 4, Tl 2 MnGeTe 4, and Tl 2 MnSnTe 4 have been synthesized. All six compounds are isostructural and crystallize in the tetragonal space group I -42 m with a ≈ 8.3 Å and c ≈ 7.1 Å. The structure is composed of chains of composition [AXTe 4 ]…
An approach to isolating small aggregates of single-wall carbon nanohorns (SWNHs) is presented. SWNHs are ultrasonically treated in an aqueous solution of surfactant, resulting in dispersion of SWNH aggregates. Subsequent centrifuging enables the separation of small aggregates from larger aggregates or agglomerations…
In this work, we use the Monte Carlo method to calculate the magnetocaloric effect in the compounds ${\mathrm{Gd}}_{5}{({\mathrm{Si}}_{x}{\mathrm{Ge}}_{1\ensuremath{-}x})}_{4}$ for $x>0.5$, where the magnetic phase transition is of second order. The isothermal entropy change and the adiabatic temperature change upo…
A theoretical investigation of the combined effect of confinement geometry, valley degeneracy, crystallographic orientations, and anisotropy of the effective mass on the intraband absorption of the conduction band of $\mathrm{Si}$ nanocrystals is presented. We show that the coupling between the nanocrystal shape and a…
Abstract Surface-initiated atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) of (2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxolan-4-yl)methyl methacrylate (1) was carried out from an immobilized initiator on a silicon wafer to result in a high-density polymer brush, which was converted to the hydrophilic polymer brush consisting of 2,3-dihyroxypr…
The structure of hydrogen molybdenum bronze phase III, H x MoO 3 ( x ≈ 5 / 3 ) has been studied on the basis of a combined experimental−theoretical approach. Our study of the average structure allows us to qualify previous contradictory results concerning the octahedral distortions and show no sign of hydrogen occupat…
Lanthanide complexes have wide applications in biochemical research and biomedical imaging. We have designed and synthesized a new class of macrocyclic lanthanide chelates, Ln/DTPA-PDA-C(n), for cell labeling and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) applications. Two lipophilic Gd3+ complexes, Gd/DTPA-PDA-C(n) (n = 10, 12…
Abstract New aromatic polyamides were synthesized by the microwave‐assisted polycondensation of an optically active isosorbide‐derived diamine with different diacyl chlorides in the presence of a small amount of N‐methylpyrrolidinone. Polymers with inherent viscosities between 0.22 and 0.73 dL/g were obtained correspo…
Relaxation and aging behaviors in three supercooled liquids: m-toluidine, glycerol, and sucrose benzoate have been studied by shear stress relaxation experiments in the time domain above and below their nominal glass transition temperatures. For the equilibrium state, the current study provides new data on the behavio…
Due to inadequate vascular perfusion brought about by vascular disease or trauma, there is a significant worldwide demand for a small diameter (<5 mm inner diameter [ID]) vascular graft for use as ...
Functionalized medium-chain-length polyhydroxyalkanoates (mclPHAs) have gained much interest in research on biopolymers because of their ease of chemical modification. Tailored olefinic mclPHA production from mixtures of octanoic acid and 10-undecenoic acid was investigated in batch and dual (C,N) nutrient limited che…
Abstract Summary: Ultrafine fibers were spun from poly( D , L ‐lactide) (PDLA) solution using a homemade electrospinning set‐up. Fibers with diameter ranging from 350 to 1 900 nm were obtained. Morphologies of fibers and distribution of fiber diameters were investigated varying concentration and applied voltage by sca…
We report the results of a model calculation for studying the effects of pressure on a bunch of carbon nanotubes as well as individual nanotubes. Carbon nanotubes are extremely rigid in the axial direction. At pressures that we work with, the deformation in the axial direction comes out to be negligibly small in compa…
To increase an orthopedic implant's lifetime, research trends have included the development of new titanium alloys made of nontoxic elements with suitable mechanical properties (low Young's modulus - high fatigue strength), good workability and corrosion resistance. In accordance with the background on titanium and me…
