Abstract The composition and degradation of a highly active and enantioselective titanium salalen in situ catalyst for the asymmetric epoxidation of olefins with aqueous hydrogen peroxide was investigated. Kinetic data and ESI‐MS studies point to a mononuclear titanium salalen as the catalytically active species. By m…

The magnetic properties of ferromagnetic ${\mathrm{Ga}}_{0.93}{\mathrm{Mn}}_{0.07}\mathrm{As}$ thin films have been investigated by $X$-band ferromagnetic resonance (FMR) spectroscopy as a function of hole concentration. The hole concentration $[p]$ was varied from ${10}^{21}\phantom{\rule{0.3em}{0ex}}\text{to}<{10…

The title dicyano compound was synthesized via cyanation and it self-assembles in nonpolar solvents giving red-shifted and broad absorption maxima just as the bacteriochlorophylls which are encountered in the light-harvesting organelles of early photosynthetic bacteria. In the crystal, stacks are formed through a hier…

Abstract We report a new strategy, the directional peeling of a rigiflex mold with a nanostructure, to overcome several problems with general patterning techniques for liquid‐crystal (LC) alignment. These include difficulty in generating the pretilt angle and in controlling the LC rising‐up direction, formation of loc…

By correlating all electrons and employing core-tuned correlation consistent basis sets of quintuple-zeta quality, we applied multireference and coupled-cluster methods to study 32 electronic states of the diatomic BH molecule, two bound states of BH(-), and three states of the linear HBBH molecule. We have constructe…

We studied both experimentally and theoretically the influence of the distance between adjacent cut-wire-pair layers on the magnetic and the electric resonances in the microwave-frequency regime. Besides the dependence on the separation between cut-wire pairs, along the electric-field direction, the electric resonance…

Zr-TiO2 nanotubes are synthesized viaa new surfactant-free sol-gel route in supercritical CO2. The morphology of the Zr-TiO2 nanotubes can be tailored by changing either the concentration of the starting materials or the acid-to-metal-alkoxide ratio. This synthesis procedure is simple and scaleable, using mild reactio…

We developed a method to control threshold voltage and on/off ratio of ZnO thin-film transistor (TFT) grown by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD). ZnO usually shows oxygen deficiency, which shows up as n-type defects of zinc interstitial or oxygen vacancy. In order to reduce these defects, we allowed suffi…

High-quality Er(3+):ZnO films were grown by the pulsed-laser deposition technique for 0.5 and 2 wt. % Er doping. Two peaks were observed at approximately 1.54 microm in the photoluminescence spectra of samples with 2 wt. % doping contrary to only one peak in the 0.5 wt. % doped sample. Both peaks were found to be stro…

The ternary xV2O5–(40 − x)Li2O–60B2O3 glass system, where x = 1, 2, 3, 4 and 6 mol%, was prepared by normal quenching. Ultrasonic velocities and attenuation were measured at room temperature using a pulse-echo technique. Various parameters, such as elastic moduli, micro-hardness, Poisson's ratio and Debye temperature,…

We investigate the collective organization of paramagnetic colloidal particles externally driven above the periodic stripes of a uniaxial ferrimagnetic garnet film. An external field modulation induces vibration of the stripe walls and produces random motion of the particles. Defects in the stripe pattern break the sy…

Silicon nitride with helical structure was prepared on a large scale by CVD. On the microscale, these coiled Si3N4 ceramics still possess superelasticity and can recover their original shapes after cyclic loadings without noticeable deformations. These results suggest helical microcoils could have potential in microde…

Regulating RNA with light. An RNA aptamer capable of specifically binding one isomer of a photoisomerizable spiropyran small molecule was engineered. The reversibility of the light-switchable aptamer recognition was then characterized by SPR imaging. This RNA–small molecule pair has significant implications in the lig…
