A large number of single-crystalline Ag 2 V 4 O 11 nanobelts with thickness of 10–30 nm, width of 70–200 nm, and lengths of 2–5 µm have been successfully synthesized by a hydrothermal method. The morphologies and structures of the nanobelts were characterized by x-ray powder diffraction, x-ray photoelectron spectrosco…
We present a method for directly locating density-driven phase transitions in multicomponent systems. Phase coexistence conditions are determined through manipulation of a total density probability distribution evaluated over a density range that includes both coexisting phases. Saturation quantities are determined th…
Three mesogenic dimers have been synthesized in which a five-ring bent-core moiety is connected with different calamitic units flexible spacers. The mesophase behavior of the dimers have been investigated by polarizing microscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, X-ray diffraction on oriented samples and by dielectr…
We report how the placement of nucleobase units, thymine, or N6-(4-methoxybenzoyl)adenine, onto the ends of a mesogenic core, bis-4-alkoxy-substituted bis(phenylethynyl)benzene, affects the properties of these materials. We show that addition of these bulky polar groups significantly reduces the range of liquid-crysta…
The variable temperature magnetic susceptibility, X-ray crystallography, and Mössbauer and Raman spectra of a new dinuclear complex-based one-dimensional coordination polymer [[Fe(II)2(NCS)2(mu-bpypz)2](micro-4,4'-bpy)].MeOH demonstrated a steep one-step [HS-HS] to [LS-LS] spin transition.
Abstract Orthogonal polymer brush gradients are assemblies of surface‐anchored macromolecules, in which two material properties of the grafted chains ( e.g. , grafting density, molecular weight) vary independently in orthogonal directions. Here, we describe the formation and applications of two such orthogonal assembl…
We present first-principles total-energy density-functional theory electronic structure calculations for the neutral and charge states of an oxygen vacancy in $\mathrm{K}{\mathrm{H}}_{2}\mathrm{P}{\mathrm{O}}_{4}$ (KDP). Even though the overall density of states profiles for the defective KDP are quite similar to thos…
Polymer glasses have very appealing properties for a number of optical and other applications and their high resistance to plastic deformation, expressed as the ratio of low temperature yield stress to elastic modulus of order 0.05, is an additional bonus. Their normalized resistance to crack propagation, as measured…
In this work, we studied the far-field properties of the microwave radiation from sources embedded inside the split-ring resonator (SRR) metamaterial medium. Our results showed that the emitted power near the resonance frequency of the SRR structure was confined to a narrow angular region in the far field. The measure…
A Co-doped ZnO nanoneedle array with room-temperature ferromagnetic properties was successfully fabricated by pulsed laser deposition (PLD) method. Detailed nanostructures were studied by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and x-ray diffraction (XRD). High resolution TEM images and selected area electron diffracti…

The structure, stability, and O2 adsorption properties of anionic Au(n) (n=1-11) clusters either free or supported at defected MgO100 surfaces are investigated using density-functional theory. O2 adsorption is strong whenever unpaired electrons are present, except for at some small, supported, planar, high-band-gap cl…
One-dimensional chiral copper(II) and manganese(II) coordination polymers with single asymmetric end-to-end (EE) azide bridges, [Cu(R-L)2(N3)]n(ClO4)n (1), [Cu(S-L)2 (N3)]n(ClO4)n (2), [Mn(R-L)2(N3)]n(ClO4)n (3), and [Mn(S-L)2(N3)]n(ClO4)n (4) (R-L or S-L = R- or S-pyridine-2-carbaldehyde-imine), have been synthesized…
The reaction of tris(alkylthio)tetrathiafulvalene thiolates with 3-chloro-2,4-pentanedione affords tetrathiafulvalene (TTF) moieties substituted by the acetylacetone function (TTFSacacH), precursors of novel redox-active ligands: the acetylacetonate ions (TTFSacac). These TTFSacacHs have been characterized by X-ray di…
Nanostructures on a plate! Single-crystalline metal oxide nanostructures (see SEM images) have been synthesized on a large scale and at low cost on a wide range of substrates by directly heating the metal foils or metal-coated substrates at low temperatures in air. Such a hotplate method could be potentially useful in…
Two tetranuclear manganese(II) complexes [Mn(II)4(thiaS)2] (1) and [Mn(II)4(thiaSO)2] (2) have been synthesized under solvothermal conditions in methanol with p-tert-butylthiacalix[4]arene (thiaS) and p-tert-butylsulfinylthiacalix[4]arene (thiaSO). For both complexes, the structure has been established from single-cry…
The effects of B and P codoping on the impurity formation energies and electronic properties of Si nanocrystals (Si-nc) are calculated by a first-principles method. We show that, if carriers in the Si-nc are perfectly compensated by simultaneous doping with n- and p-type impurities, the Si-nc undergo a minor structura…
A novel method of making silver nanoparticles in water-in-oil microemulsions using the surfactants as both the reducing agent and as the structure-directing agent is presented. Since no external strong reducing agent is used the kinetics of the formation is slow, which makes it possible to study the silver nanoparticl…
We present data for the time dependence of wooden spheres penetrating into a loose noncohesive packing of glass beads. The stopping time is a factor of 3 longer than the time d/v0 needed to travel the total penetration distance d at the impact speed v0. The acceleration decreases monotonically throughout the impact. T…
We investigate the temperature dependency of the elastic constants of polyelectrolyte multilayers made from poly(diallyldimethylammonium chloride) (PDADMAC) and poly(styrenesulfonate) (PSS) by measuring the stiffness of individual hollow polyelectrolyte multilayer capsules in water using AFM force spectroscopy. Statis…
