We demonstrated a novel square hybrid nanosheet with a ultrathin thickness for the first time, which was fabricated by self-assembly of hyperbranched poly(ether amine) (hPEA526) containing anthracene (AN) moieties and heptaisobutyl polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (POSS). TEM and AFM images reveal that the average…

Boron nitride nanotubes (BNNT) were synthesized over both Fe 3+ impregnated MCM-41 (mobil composition of matter no. 41) and Fe 2 O 3 /MCM-41 complex catalyst systems at relatively low temperatures for 1 h by the chemical vapor deposition technique in large quantities. The formation of BNNT was tailored at different re…

The acid-catalyzed condensation reaction of resorcinol and bisdimethoxyacetals gave rise to rim-to-rim connected bisresorcinarenes in good yields. In the presence of ethanol, the homoditopic bisresorcinarenes assembled to form supramolecular polymers via hydrogen bonding interactions. The fibrous morphologies of the s…

The combination of gasoline direct injection and turbocharging is a promising method to reduce the fuel consumption of internal combustion engines through engine downsizing, which leads to increased engine efficiencies and a reduction of CO 2 emissions at a comparable power output. Spray-guided direct injection allows…

Abstract Multiferroic ceramics Bi 0.9 La 0.1 Fe 1− x Ru x O 3 ( x = 0%, 1% and 3%) were prepared using a solid-state reaction process. The structural transformation from rhombohedral to pseudocubic was confirmed in the Ru-doped samples via x-ray diffraction investigation, and the improved dielectric properties are asc…

Using time-resolved resonant soft x-ray diffraction, we measure the evolution of the full three-dimensional scattering volume of the antiferromagnetic superlattice reflection in the single-layer manganite La${}_{0.5}$Sr${}_{1.5}$MnO${}_{4}$on femtosecond time scales following photoexcitation. We find that the in-plane…

We developed a new synthetic method for bicyclo[2.2.2]octadiene (BCOD)-fused porphyrin (1), a tetrabenzoporphyrin (TBP, 2) precursor that is well-known as a good material for use in organic electronic devices. The newly developed method synthesizes the BCOD-fused pyrrole intermediate (which is the most important inter…

The spatial distribution of radiation damage (assayed by increases in atomic B factors) to thaumatin and urease crystals at temperatures ranging from 25 to 300 K is reported. The nature of the damage changes dramatically at approximately 180 K. Above this temperature the role of solvent diffusion is apparent in thauma…
