A previous study, leading to the redefinition of Seminavis ventricosa (Gregory) Garcia-Baptista and some related taxa, made it clear that a considerable number of species exist within Seminavis D.G. Mann. Many species are still classified under Amphora Ehrenberg, although they clearly share common morphological featur…

Abstract We have developed a polymer dispersed cholesteric liquid crystal which exhibits two stable states at zero field: reflecting planar texture and non‐reflective focal conic texture. Both states have thresholds under driving voltage pulses. The material can be used to make multiplexed displays on passive matrix.…

The alignment mechanism of a polyimide surface bombarded with an atomic beam is investigated. Atomic beam treatment of polyimide films allows a liquid crystal (LC) to align parallel to the beam direction. This alignment mechanism is demonstrated by the selective destruction of double bonds in polyimide. The optical re…

Pulsed laser deposition has been used to grow highly oriented SrxBa1−xNb2O6 (SBN:x) on (001)MgO and miscut MgO (2° off 001 toward 100) in the presence of a pulsed O2 jet. The target stoichiometry was SBN:52±1.5%, but films grown at 700 °C were cation deficient and had a final composition of SBN:61±1.5%. Visually, the…

Depletion interactions between colloidal particles dispersed in a fluid medium are effective interactions induced by the presence of other types of colloid. They are not instantaneous but built up in time. We show by means of Brownian dynamics simulations that the static (mean-field) depletion force between two guest…

We describe a modular detector system suitable to intercept the diffracted x-ray radiation (Debye–Scherrer rings) in a transmission geometry setup at monochromatic tunable synchrotron radiation beamlines. The detector consists of several independent channels composed of a motorized front slit and a rear detector slit…

In recent years, single crystal Cu-Al-Ni alloys with shape memory behavior (SMB) became generally commercialized. They achieved the level of extended application, including upper limb human prosthesis with anthropomorphic characteristics. An actuator based in single crystal Cu-Al-Ni alloy was tested as a prototype for…

Because analytical expressions are required to run optimization software, this subject is very topical. This work uses equivalent permeability to homogenize the winding structure and approximations for the window field. A progressive approach leads to the needed expressions for a transformer built around a gapped ferr…

To characterize the sorption behavior of a fibrous assembly, an experimental method must measure the sorption rate and the capacity in conditions similar to those found in the real state. The gravimetric absorbency testing system (GATS) has advantages in that it can dynamically observe the spontaneous transplanar upta…
