Abstract A series of 1,1′‐ferrocene‐containing polyelectrolytes ( 3, 4 ) were prepared when 1,1′‐bis( N,N ‐dimethylaminomethyl)ferrocene ( 1a ) or 1, 1′‐bis{[1‐(2‐methyl)imidazol‐1‐yl]methyl}ferrocene ( 1b ) was quaternized with 1,4‐dibromobutane or α, α′‐dibromo‐ p ‐xylene. The counterion was bromide or bis(trifluoro…

Planar periodic arrays of metallic elements printed on grounded dielectric substrates are presented to exhibit left-handed properties for surface wave propagation. The proposed structures dispense with the need for grounding vias and ease the implementation of uniplanar left-handed metamaterials at higher frequencies.…

(GaMn)N is a topic of much current controversy. Rao and Jena suggested [Phys. Rev. Lett. 89, 185504 (2002)] that a high Curie temperature detected in some of the (GaMn)N samples is a result of the formation of small Mn clusters carrying giant magnetic moments. We report a detailed density-functional-theory study of th…

Fabrication of surface relief gratings (SRGs) on azo dye thin films has been investigated utilizing an interference of evanescent waves. SRGs of approximately 210 nm were inscribed on the photoisomerized azo dye films, that were smaller than a half wavelength of an incidence laser of 488.0 nm. The films were set on a…

We consider propagation of electromagnetic waves in a circular fibre with a \ncore of negative-refractive-index metamaterial. We study the fast and slow \nguided modes of a dispersive fibre and the mode properties depending on the \nfibre parameters. We show the peculiar mode properties of a fibre with

Atomic substitutions in the SrTiO3 (ST) perovskite lattice are foreseen to modify the lattice vibration modes, which are apparently sensitive to the site at which the substitution occurs. In order to understand the effect of Mg substitution in the ST lattice, the dielectric properties of Sr1−xMgxTiO3 and SrTi1−yMgyO3−…

We predict that left-handed metamaterials with nonlinear response can support both TE- and TM-polarized self-trapped localized beams, or spatial electromagnetic solitons. Such solitons appear as single- and multi-hump beams, being either symmetric or antisymmetric, and they are modified dramatically by the hysteresis-…

A series of nickel-, copper-, and aluminum-containing catalysts at a (Ni+Cu)/Al mole ratio of 3 and Cu/Ni mole ratio in the range of 0.03−0.4 was prepared by coprecipitation from corresponding metal nitrate solutions at alkaline pH. The composition and structure of the precipitates were determined by chemical analysis…

This paper presents the research on the stability analysis of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) via elastic continuum beam and shell models. The estimation of the flexural stiffness of a single-walled nanotube (SWNT) via the elastic beam model is proposed based on the postulate analyzed and provided in the paper. The validation…

Epitaxial ferromagnetic films of Cr-doped TiO2 anatase (CrxTi1−xO2−x∕2) were grown on LaAlO3(001) using oxygen-plasma-assisted molecular-beam epitaxy. CrK-shell x-ray absorption near-edge spectroscopy shows that the formal oxidation state of Cr is +3 throughout the films, with no evidence for either elemental Cr or ha…

We have found that R6G laser dye in a concentration of 0.1 g l−1 mixed with a solution of aggregated silver nanoparticles exhibits a new emission band with a maximum at 612 nm. This band does not exist in pure dye of comparable concentration or in a mixture of dye with a solution of single silver nanoparticles. A qual…

Inspired by recent experiments on DNA replication, we apply a one-dimensional nucleation-and-growth model to DNA-replication kinetics, focusing on how to extract the time-dependent nucleation rate I (t) and growth speed v from data. We discuss generic experimental problems: namely, spatial inhomogeneity, measurement n…

We summarize our work on polarization effects in arrays of low-symmetry L-shaped gold nanoparticles. A collection of experiments used to characterize both the linear and second-order optical responses of the arrays is discussed. The responses of the arrays are found to be exceptionally sensitive to polarization. This…

The UV absorption spectrum of the permanganate anion is a prototype transition-metal complex spectrum. Despite this being a simple d0 Td system, for which a beautiful spectrum with detailed vibrational structure has been available since 1967, the assignment of the second and third bands is still very controversial.
