A new ordered fullerene phase encapsulated by large-diameter CNTs is systematically investigated by combining a growth technique by chemical vapour deposition, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy and molecular-dynamics simulations. In contrast to fullerenes in smaller (1-2 nm) diameter CNTs, where fullere…

Mesoporous silica materials derivatized with propyl-sulfonic groups (SBA-15) with a monovalent cation-exchange capacity of ∼1 meq/g were exchanged with Ce(III) ions to ∼0.5 meq/g to form Ce(III)SBA material displaying high-intensity purple photoluminescence. XPS and NIR-DRS analysis suggests the Ce(III) ion is bound t…

When irradiated by the focused Ar+ ion laser of below band-gap photon energy (2.41 and 2.54eV), a large increase of refractive index (e.g., Δn=6% at 1550nm) was observed in 60GeS2–20Ga2S3–20AgI bulk glass (with bandgap of 2.71eV). We found it surprisingly that such a large Δn quickly smeared out after the illumination…

We report measurements of the electric surface potential (SP) and its temporal evolution in thermally poled silica samples, thus, providing a direct quantitative evidence of the frozen-in voltage. The SP value is found to be directly related to the voltage across the depletion layer and there is a clear link between f…

An experiment was conducted to evaluate the effects of nitrogen (N) level on the dry matter (DM) yield, N concentration and oxalate content of some tropical grasses, namely Rhodesgrass (Chloris gayana), Guineagrass (Panicum maximum) and Sudangrass (Sorghum vulgare). Three levels of N as urea were applied (Standard-260…

The compound Ce12.60Cd58.68(2) is a metrically commensurate representative of the incommensurately modulated phase Ce13Cd57+delta. It is most likely a lock-in phase. The structure, which was solved using seeding of the modulation from those positions most affected as well as direct solution by charge flipping, represe…

Abstract Novel cellulosic fibers modified by β ‐cyclodextrin (CFEC) were prepared for adsorption for heavy metal ions like copper (II) and organic dye like neutral red from their aqueous solutions. The modified cellulosic fibers gave higher copper ion adsorption, and showed copper ion uptake values of 6.24 mg/g at 293…

A series of sugar-appended Schiff base chiral rod−coil amphiphiles with various alkoxy chain lengths have been synthesized in order to elucidate the variation of the helical twisting power (HTP), that is, the inverse of the pitch length, of the helical texture in the self-assembly of the amphiphiles. The HTP induced b…
