Abstract Orthogonal polymer brush gradients are assemblies of surface‐anchored macromolecules, in which two material properties of the grafted chains ( e.g. , grafting density, molecular weight) vary independently in orthogonal directions. Here, we describe the formation and applications of two such orthogonal assembl…
We present first-principles total-energy density-functional theory electronic structure calculations for the neutral and charge states of an oxygen vacancy in $\mathrm{K}{\mathrm{H}}_{2}\mathrm{P}{\mathrm{O}}_{4}$ (KDP). Even though the overall density of states profiles for the defective KDP are quite similar to thos…
Polymer glasses have very appealing properties for a number of optical and other applications and their high resistance to plastic deformation, expressed as the ratio of low temperature yield stress to elastic modulus of order 0.05, is an additional bonus. Their normalized resistance to crack propagation, as measured…
In this work, we studied the far-field properties of the microwave radiation from sources embedded inside the split-ring resonator (SRR) metamaterial medium. Our results showed that the emitted power near the resonance frequency of the SRR structure was confined to a narrow angular region in the far field. The measure…
A Co-doped ZnO nanoneedle array with room-temperature ferromagnetic properties was successfully fabricated by pulsed laser deposition (PLD) method. Detailed nanostructures were studied by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and x-ray diffraction (XRD). High resolution TEM images and selected area electron diffracti…

The structure, stability, and O2 adsorption properties of anionic Au(n) (n=1-11) clusters either free or supported at defected MgO100 surfaces are investigated using density-functional theory. O2 adsorption is strong whenever unpaired electrons are present, except for at some small, supported, planar, high-band-gap cl…
One-dimensional chiral copper(II) and manganese(II) coordination polymers with single asymmetric end-to-end (EE) azide bridges, [Cu(R-L)2(N3)]n(ClO4)n (1), [Cu(S-L)2 (N3)]n(ClO4)n (2), [Mn(R-L)2(N3)]n(ClO4)n (3), and [Mn(S-L)2(N3)]n(ClO4)n (4) (R-L or S-L = R- or S-pyridine-2-carbaldehyde-imine), have been synthesized…
The reaction of tris(alkylthio)tetrathiafulvalene thiolates with 3-chloro-2,4-pentanedione affords tetrathiafulvalene (TTF) moieties substituted by the acetylacetone function (TTFSacacH), precursors of novel redox-active ligands: the acetylacetonate ions (TTFSacac). These TTFSacacHs have been characterized by X-ray di…
Nanostructures on a plate! Single-crystalline metal oxide nanostructures (see SEM images) have been synthesized on a large scale and at low cost on a wide range of substrates by directly heating the metal foils or metal-coated substrates at low temperatures in air. Such a hotplate method could be potentially useful in…
Two tetranuclear manganese(II) complexes [Mn(II)4(thiaS)2] (1) and [Mn(II)4(thiaSO)2] (2) have been synthesized under solvothermal conditions in methanol with p-tert-butylthiacalix[4]arene (thiaS) and p-tert-butylsulfinylthiacalix[4]arene (thiaSO). For both complexes, the structure has been established from single-cry…
The effects of B and P codoping on the impurity formation energies and electronic properties of Si nanocrystals (Si-nc) are calculated by a first-principles method. We show that, if carriers in the Si-nc are perfectly compensated by simultaneous doping with n- and p-type impurities, the Si-nc undergo a minor structura…
A novel method of making silver nanoparticles in water-in-oil microemulsions using the surfactants as both the reducing agent and as the structure-directing agent is presented. Since no external strong reducing agent is used the kinetics of the formation is slow, which makes it possible to study the silver nanoparticl…
We present data for the time dependence of wooden spheres penetrating into a loose noncohesive packing of glass beads. The stopping time is a factor of 3 longer than the time d/v0 needed to travel the total penetration distance d at the impact speed v0. The acceleration decreases monotonically throughout the impact. T…
We investigate the temperature dependency of the elastic constants of polyelectrolyte multilayers made from poly(diallyldimethylammonium chloride) (PDADMAC) and poly(styrenesulfonate) (PSS) by measuring the stiffness of individual hollow polyelectrolyte multilayer capsules in water using AFM force spectroscopy. Statis…
Abstract In the bulk, at equilibrium, diblock copolymers microphase separated into nanoscopic morphologies ranging from body‐centered cubic arrays of spheres to hexagonally packed cylinders to alternating lamellae, depending on the volume fraction of the components. However, when the block copolymers are forced into c…
In RBaCo2O(5+x) compounds (R is rare earth), the variability of the oxygen content allows precise doping of CoO2 planes with both types of charge carriers. We study transport properties of doped GdBaCo2O(5+x) single crystals and find a remarkable asymmetry in the behavior of holes and electrons doped into a parent ins…
In this work, we report on the epitaxial growth of multiferroic YMnO3 on GaN. Both materials are hexagonal with a nominal lattice mismatch of 4%, yet x-ray diffraction reveals an unexpected 30° rotation between the unit cells of YMnO3 and GaN that results in a much larger lattice mismatch (10%) compared to the unrotat…
We report an alternative procedure to incorporate gold nanoparticles into 3D ordered colloidal crystal film. The size of gold nanoparticles within the films can be controlled from about 10 nm to about 60 nm by simply varying the gold plating time. The application of the as-prepared films in surface-enhanced Raman spec…
Current-driven magnetization switching in low-resistance Co40Fe40B20/MgO/Co40Fe40B20 magnetic tunnel junctions (MTJs) is reported. The critical-current densities Jc required for current-driven switching in samples annealed at 270C and 300C are found to be as low as 7.8 x 10^5 A/cm^2 and 8.8 x 10^5 A/cm^2 with accompan…
