With the ongoing decrease in magnetic spacing, the chemical durability of the lubricant film on magnetic recording media becomes a major factor in the reliability of the head-disk interface. There are several reports in the literature that have attributed deterioration of lubricant film to catalytic decomposition, and…

Magnetic characteristics of the Nd2Fe14BHx single crystals and polycrystalline samples were investigated in the temperature range 4.2–750 K. It is established that hydrogen absorption does not change the crystal structure of these compounds but is accompanied by an expansion of a unit cell volume. The obtained data sh…

Avoidance of solvents in bonding operations is a current demand in the footwear industry. Halogenation of rubber soles with solutions of trichloroisocyanuric acid (TCI) in different solvents has been successfully used to improve bonding to the leather uppers. In this study, the use of chlorine bleach as an alternative…

Abstract The measured optical and transport properties of single-crystal SrTiO3 have been determined as a function of oxidation and reduction using spectroscopic ellipsometry, Hall and resistivity measurements. A decrease in the valence to conduction band transitions across the band gap, from O 2p to Ti 3d states, is…

Goldbach’s conjecture, the crystallographic restriction, and the orders of the elements of the symmetric group. First recall that for an element g of a group G the order Ord(g) of g is defined to be the smallest natural number such that g Ord(g) = id if such a number exists, and Ord(g) =∞otherwise. In dimension n, the…

We have studied the electrical properties and microstructure of fluorine‐doped BaTiO 3 ceramics. The samples were prepared using a classical ceramic technology that involved the calcination of intimately mixed powders of BaCO 3 , TiO 2 , and BaF 2 . When the samples were sintered in untreated ambient air, the fluorine…

Abstract Hydrogen‐bonded supramolecular copolymers were easily prepared by mixing cyclohexanetricarboxamides with three ( 1 ) and six ( 2 ) alkylsilyl groups, and supramolecular fibers were fabricated. When the composition of 1 and 2 was at or close to equimolarity, the supramolecular copolymer chain was found to have…

Colloidal particles coated by polyelectrolyte multilayers of alternatingly positive and negative charge are shown to interact strongly with lipid vesicles. We have studied two cases: (i) the interaction between beads and small unilamellar vesicles (vesicles diameter smaller than the particles one), where we found evid…

Single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies of brochantite demonstrate its Order-Disorder (OD) character. The OD structures of the brochantite family can be described as built up by equivalent OD layers with symmetry Pn2 1 m. Two MDO polytypes are possible in this family, and both have been identified in specimens of bro…

A multilayer structure [TiN(5 nm)/interlayer metal(2 nm)/TiN(5 nm)] has been evaluated as a diffusion barrier between copper and silicon. Three metals (M=Ru, Cr, and Zr) were tested as interlayer materials for the multilayer diffusion barrier scheme, expecting that they will stuff the TiN grain boundaries by forming m…
