Microscale wide and millimeters long comblike ZnO single crystals with well-aligned cuboid nanobranches were fabricated using a double-tube simple thermal evaporation method without the presence of a catalyst at 950 °C. X-ray diffraction and Raman spectra revealed that the as-grown products had a wurtzite crystal stru…

Abstract In a Raman map of double‐wall carbon nanotubes, the radial breathing modes of the inner tubes are grouped into clusters with similar resonance behavior. These clusters are located close to the resonances of SDS wrapped HiPco tubes and can spread over 30 cm –1 . Compared to the HiPco tubes the resonances of th…

Based on the polaron concept, a general nonperturbative approach to the calculation of the multiphonon Raman scattering cross section for semiconductor quantum dots (QDs) is proposed. Within this concept, the Raman scattering process consists of two virtual transitions in the exciton-polaron spectrum, one with absorpt…

The chiral supramolecular complexation between amylose and oligosilane can be reversibly controlled by changing the pH, leading to a switching of the optical activity. Further, the induction of optical activity in oligosilane, synchronized with the supramolecular complexation, is reversible, as shown by data from pH c…

Abstract Flexible, transparent and conducting poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) composites films were prepared using SOCl 2 functionalized SWNTs. Optical absorption spectra measured on composite films confirm that the composite preparation procedure preserves the electronic properties (position of the Fermi level) of t…

Abstract Carbon nanotubes can be aligned by dispersing them in a liquid crystalline matrix. To control and optimize the obtained alignment it is important to understand the interactions between the molecules of the liquid crystal host phase and the carbon nanotubes. To this end we have carried out resonant Raman spect…

Abstract A large variety of functional groups (i.e. carboxyl, carbonyl, aldehyde, alcohol) – representing the different oxidation states of carbon – can be produced by oxidative treatment of single walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs), depending on duration and temperature of the process. For subsequent functionalization…

Recent research has shown that a phase transformation of diamond to a different form of carbon is involved when diamonds are polished in the traditional fashion. The question as to how this phase transformation is activated and maintained to produce high wear rates is of great technological interest since it may radic…

Abstract Summary: The phase relaxation behavior of chitosan and its blends with glycerol has been studied by dynamic mechanical thermal analysis (DMTA) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) techniques. The analysis of DMTA spectra of chitosan leads to recognition of two molecular relaxations in chitosan and its…
