Macroporous alumina materials were fabricated via colloidal processing using polymer spheres as the template and ceramic particles as the building blocks. The influence of the suspension conditions and volume ratio of the polymer/ceramic particles on the formation of the pore structure has been investigated. The resul…

A nearly nonempirical, transferable model potential is developed for the chlorobenzene molecules (C6ClnH6-n, n = 1 to 6) with anisotropy in the atom-atom form of both electrostatic and repulsion interactions. The potential is largely derived from the charge densities of the molecules, using a distributed multipole ele…

A method is reported for the fabrication of wires with extended pore structures. Nanospheres are initially infiltrated into the one-dimensional channels of alumina or polymer porous membranes. Metal is then electrochemically deposited within the channels. Removal of the membrane and nanospheres results in porous wires…

The one-pot corrole synthesis first reported by the Gross and Paolesse groups appears to have evolved into a remarkably general and predictable self-assembly based synthetic reaction. Gross's solvent-free procedure (refs 8 and 9) has proven particularly effective in our hands and, in fact, more general than originally…

Electron injection dynamics from Ru(dcbpyH 2 ) 2 (NCS) 2 (RuN3) and (Bu 4 N) 2 Ru(dcbpyH) 2 (NCS) 2 (N719) to nanocrystalline ZnO thin films were studied using transient IR spectroscopy. The injection dynamics using 400 nm excitation were found to be biphasic, consisting of a distinct <100 fs component (14−20%) and sl…

Epitaxial cuprous oxide, Cu2O, nanocrystals are deposited electrochemically onto n-InP(001). The lattice of the Cu2O is rotated 45° around the common [001] axis normal to the substrate plane. The shape of the Cu2O nanocrystals depends on the pH of the solution. Nanopyramids form at pH 9, and nanocubes form at pH 12.

Al 2 O 3 reinforced by SiC whiskers (Al 2 O 3 /SiC‐W) was hot‐pressed to investigate the crack‐healing behavior. Semielliptical surface cracks of 100 μm in surface length were introduced using a Vickers indenter. The specimens containing precracks were crack‐healed at temperatures between 1000° and 1300°C for 1 h in a…

Metamaterials composed of metal-dielectric nanostructures are engineered to have an effective refractive index less than unity at optical wavelengths. The effect of total external reflection is demonstrated when light from vacuum is incident onto these materials at an angle exceeding the critical angle defined by Snel…

The laser action in a dye-doped cholesteric liquid crystal has been investigated as a function of temperature. The discontinuous shift of the lasing wavelength has been observed. It has also been found that the shift of the stop band in the cholesteric liquid crystal is discontinuous when the size of the measured area…
