Using classical and ab initio molecular-dynamics (MD) simulations, we have studied a calcium aluminosilicate glass of composition (SiO2)0.67–(Al2O3)0.12–(CaO)0.21. Samples with 100 and 200 atoms were generated by classical MD simulations using a potential with 3-body interactions. Although we observe, for the model wi…

The films of a polymer-dispersed nematic liquid crystal doped with an ionic surfactant were studied. The surface-anchoring modification effect caused by the local increase in the concentration of surface-active ions was observed at the polymer-liquid crystal interface under the action of an electric field. The modific…

Abstract We provide a closer look into the diameter and chirality dependences of exciton properties in carbon nanotubes, using a variational methodology based on the effective mass and envelope function approximations, supported by ab initio parameters. Experimental measurements of the binding energy are reproduced wi…

An approach for mode-mismatched two-beam (pump-probe) photothermal lens detection of multipoint light-absorbing targets in solution (e.g., gold nanoparticles) is developed for continuous-wave intensity-modulated laser-excitation mode. A description of the blooming of the thermooptical element (thermal lens) upon absor…

A novel negative refractive index (NRI) chiral meta-material (MTM), based on the Y structure, has been designed and tested in the microwave and terahertz frequencies. In addition to providing magnetoelectric coupling, this MTM has a negative index of refraction passband that can be tuned in both the frequency of opera…

Rodlike polysilsesquioxanes forming regular higher-ordered nanostructure such as hexagonal phase were prepared by sol-gel reaction of organotrimethoxysilanes having amino groups in aqueous solutions of inorganic strong acids. The XRD profiles of the resulting polysilsesquioxanes showed three peaks with the d -value ra…

The purpose of this study is to develop a better understanding of the main mechanisms controlling the foaming of poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL), a semi-crystalline biodegradable polymer, using batch processing and CO 2 as the physical blowing agent. A detailed study of the dissolution of CO 2 is conducted in order to esta…

Abstract Summary: Many works focused on glassy polymers determine values of glass transition temperature ( T g ) and an overview of the literature shows that depending on the method used, values of T g are found different for the same material. In this paper, a review of data collected on different materials are used…

This paper presents an overview of the results obtained in the synthesis of metal or metal oxide nanoparticles using hydrocarbyl complexes as metal source. The main advantage of using such metal precursors is their easy decomposition that can be achieved in solution and mild conditions. This allows the control of the…

By observing the movement of small fluorescent particles in an electrospinning jet, we have directly measured the fluid velocity along the jet axis. The correlation between these direct velocity measurements and the velocity calculated from the jet radius using volume conservation indicates when evaporation is a signi…

Plates of 3–5 mm in thickness were extracted from an AZ91D ingot and then butt joints of the plates were produced using tungsten inert gas (TIG) welding method. The TIG arc was also used to deposit welding beads on some of the thin plates. No cracking was found in the butt joints. However, hot cracking was always obse…
