A new simplified route to prepare nanocrystalline alumina powders is proposed. The method involved the use of freshly extracted egg white (ovalbumin) and aluminum nitrate in an aqueous medium. Changes in ionic strength upon addition of aluminum nitrate resulted in gelation of ovalbumin. The added metal ions were dispe…

Twinning, i.e., the formation of structural domains, in La1−xSrxMnO3 thin films, which grow coherently on (001)-oriented cubic substrates, is explained as a result of shear strain relaxation within the distorted rhombohedral La1−xSrxMnO3 crystal lattice. A one-dimensional periodic model structure of twins is proposed…
