We have studied the variation of magnetic and magnetocaloric properties of polycrystalline compounds ${\text{SmMn}}_{2}{\text{Ge}}_{2}$ and ${\text{GdMn}}_{2}{\text{Ge}}_{2}$ as a function of applied hydrostatic pressure. The magnetic transition temperatures are found to change considerably with pressure. The temperat…

The reaction of ethylenediamine solutions of 4,4'-bipyridine with varying stoichiometric amounts of sodium resulted in the isolation of the 4,4'-bipyridyl radical anion (44bipy(*-)) and the unprecedented 4,4'-bipyridyl dianion (44bipy(2-)). The radical was characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction in Na(44bipy…

The microstructures of pure Cu processed by equal channel angular pressing (ECAP) from 4 to 24 passes were investigated. It was found that the microstructures of Cu samples with a small number of ECAP passes (4-8) were not inhomogeneous and the fraction of high-angle grain boundary (HAGB) was low (25~43%). While for t…

Martensitic transformations in NiTi shape memory alloys (SMAs) strongly depend on the microstructure. In the present work, we investigate how martensitic transformations are affected by various types of ultra-fine grained (UFG) microstructures resulting from various processing routes. NiTi SMAs with UFG microstructure…

Abstract Atomic force microscopy characterization has been conducted to reveal the morphological difference between single‐ring bands in poly(butylene adipate) (PBA). Furthermore, morphological features of the ring‐less Maltese‐cross spherulites are compared to the ring‐band spherulites. Periodic changes in height see…

Numerical results are presented for hydrodynamic instabilities surrounding the parameter space of sonoluminescing bubbles. The Rayleigh-Taylor instability is shown to limit bubble oscillations only in a small region near a border at small radii in noisy environments. Also, two different noise-induced instabilities by…

The structures of the (100), octopolar (111) Na-terminated [(111) Na ], and (111) Cl-terminated [(111) Cl ] surfaces of halite (NaCl) were determined by means of ab initio quantum mechanical calculations (density functional theory, DFT). The (111) surfaces show higher surface relaxation with respect to the (100) surfa…

The metal-insulator transition is characterized as a single peak in the temperature-dependent resistivity measurements; exceptions to this have never been seen in any single crystal material system. We show that by reducing a single crystal manganite thin film to a wire with a width comparable to the mesoscopic phase-…
