Abstract This review provides relevant background information about the vulcanization process, as well as the chemistry of thiuram- and sulfenamide-accelerated sulfur vulcanization with emphasis on the role of activators, to lay a base for further research. It commences with an introduction of sulfur vulcanization and…
Visible photoluminescence (PL) from ZnO has been found to be tunable in a wide range from blue to green and orange through chemical doping and annealing. Mg-doped, (Al, Li)-doped, and undoped ZnO thin films were deposited on glass substrates by a metal-organic decomposition method at temperatures around 600 °C. The fi…
The work is dedicated to the theoretic analysis of wire media, i.e. lattices of perfectly conducting wires comprised of two or three doubly periodic arrays of parallel wires which are orthogonal to one another. An analytical method based on local field approach is used. The explicit dispersion equations are presented…
The propagation of a magnetic domain wall (DW) in a submicron magnetic wire consisting of a magnetic/nonmagnetic/magnetic trilayered structure with asymmetric notches was investigated by utilizing the giant magnetoresistance effect. The propagation direction of a DW was controlled by a pulsed local magnetic field, whi…
The Heusler alloy is used as an electrode of magnetic tunneling junctions. The junctions are deposited by magnetron dc sputtering using shadow mask techniques with AlO_{x} as a barrier and cobalt as counter electrode. Measurements of the magnetoresistive differential conductivity in a temperature range between 4K and…
This letter reports microwave dielectric measurements performed in the antiferroelectric phase of NaNbO3 ceramics from 100 to 450 K. Remarkable dielectric relaxations were found within the antiferroelectric phase and in the vicinity of ferroelectric-antiferroelectric phase transition. Such dielectric relaxation proces…
Miniature optical sensors that specifically identify low concentrations of environmental and biological substances are in high demand. Currently, there is no optical sensor that provides identification of the aforementioned species without amplification techniques at naturally occurring concentrations. Recently, it ha…
Size-controlled spectral tunability and chemical flexibility make semiconductor nanocrystals (NCs) attractive as nanoscale building blocks for color-selectable optical-gain media. The technological potential of NCs as lasing materials is, however, significantly diminished by highly efficient nonradiative Auger recombi…
Abstract Three design principles are presented that allow for the molecular design of functional polymer surfaces: surface segregation, surface structure, and surface reorganization. These design principles are illustrated by a description of the behavior of model end‐functional polymers that accurately reflect the ge…
Morphometric shape analysis and ultrastructural data are provided for six genodemes of the Sellaphora pupula species complex that have been studied during the last 20 years from Blackford Pond, Edinburgh, UK. The demes have previously been shown to be separated by prezygotic reproductive barriers: cells of different d…
We present a model in which pit nucleation in thin films is considered to arise from a near-equilibrium nucleation process. In this model the adatom concentration plays a central role in controlling the morphological development of the surface. Although pits relieve elastic energy more efficiently than islands, pit nu…
In this paper we report the results about the synthesis and characterization of optimally doped La1-xNaxMnO3 thin films grown onto SrTiO3 (100), NdGaO3 (100) and NdGaO3 (110) for thickness ranging from 11 to 82 nm. The effect of substrate nature and orientation, film thickness and annealing procedure was investigated…
We describe a facile method for the formation of dynamic nanostructured surfaces based on the modification of porous anodic aluminum oxide with poly(N-isopropyl acrylamide) (PNIPAAm) via surface-initiated atom transfer radical polymerization. The dynamic structure of these surfaces was investigated by atomic force mic…
A systematic study to understand how alumina tri-hydrate (ATH) and silica fillers improve the erosion resistance of silicone rubber during dry band arcing showed that the thermal conductivity of the resulting composite material is the main criterion governing material erosion. The thermal conductivity of the composite…
AIM: Five representative waterborne pathogens were used to illustrate the relationship between chitosan's antibacterial activity and the surface characteristics of the bacterial cell wall. METHODS: Chitosan was prepared with averaged 75% or 95% deacetylated degree to examine its antibacterial activity against waterbor…
Due to the recent increase in ecological consciousness, research has turned toward finding edible materials. Viable edible films and coatings have been produced using milk proteins. These films and coatings may retard moisture loss, are good oxygen barriers, show good tensile strength and moderate elongation, are flex…
The Co3O4(110) single crystal surface has been characterized by low energy electron diffraction (LEED), Auger electron spectroscopy, and x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). LEED analysis of the clean Co3O4(110) spinel surface shows a well-ordered pattern with sharp diffraction features. The XPS spectra are consist…
Drug delivery systems are essential components of drugs controlled release. In the last decades, several drug delivery technologies have emerged including capsules, liposomes, microparticles, nanoparticles, and polymers. These components must be biocompatible, biodegradable, and display a desired biodistribution provi…
Using the anionic precursor [(Tp)Fe(CN)3]-, a new one-dimensional Ising cyanide-bridged chain, [(Tp)2FeIII2(CN)6Cu(CH3OH).2CH3OH]n, has been prepared. The crystal structure and magnetic studies demonstrate that it is a single-chain magnet and the blocking temperature is ca. 6 K.
Abstract Polyaniline (PANI) nanotubes with an outer diameter of 165–240 nm and an inner diameter of 10–70 nm were prepared by a self‐assembly process in the presence of six different carboxylic acids—propionic acid (PA), lactic acid (LA), succinic acid (SA), malic acid (MA), tartaric acid (TA), and citric acid (CA)—as…
