Joints permit efficient locomotion, especially among animals with a rigid skeleton. Joint morphologies vary in the body of individual animals, and the shapes of homologous joints often differ across species. The diverse locomotive behaviors of animals are based, in part, on the developmental and evolutionary history o…

We report on the first synthesis and structural characterizations of a new Erbium (Er) compound, the erbium chloride silicate (ECS, Er3Cl(SiO4)2) single crystal in a Si-ECS core-shell nanowire form. The Er-concentration in ECS at 1.6x1022 cm−3 is three orders of magnitude higher than that of the Er-doped materials. Ph…

In the present study, fiber‐matrix compatibility in an all‐oxide ceramic composite is examined. Reaction‐bonding aluminum oxide is used as porous matrix to ensure weak interfaces with fibers. Matrix cracks have been deflected around the interface for sintering temperatures up to 1300°C, due to the effectiveness of por…

A photoinduced spin-state change in the itinerant correlated electron system is studied. A photon introduced in the low-spin band insulator induces a bound state of the high-spin state and a photoexcited hole. This bound state brings a characteristic peak in the pump-probe optical absorption spectra which are complete…

Two Schiff bases were synthesized by reaction of 2-(4'-aminophenyl)benzoxazole derivatives with 4-N,N-diethylaminobenzaldehyde. UV-visible (UV-vis) and steady-state fluorescence in solution were applied in order to characterize its photophysical behavior. The Schiff bases present absorption in the UV region with fluor…

Our previous work has demonstrated that the cellulose solution dissolved in 7 wt % NaOH/12 wt % urea aqueous system precooled to -12 °C was metastable. It is worth noting that light scattering investigation on the cellulose solution at metastable state is difficult. In the present paper, the solution properties and dy…

Binary water mixtures usually display a water relaxation (process II) which can be studied by broadband dielectric spectroscopy (BDS) at subzero temperatures. In a large collection of binary water mixtures, a slight increase of the relaxation strength is observed for low water concentration, whereas a faster increase…
