Dihydroxy-functionalized zwitterionic push−pull chromophores have been synthesized and incorporated into 3-glycidoxypropyltrimethoxysilane- and N -[(3-trimethoxysilyl)propyl]ethylenediamine-derived hybrid materials. The functionalization allowed the dye to form covalent bonds to the matrix network, reaching up to 5% m…

Mass transfer in micro- and mesoporous materials is of crucial importance in their practical application for separation and catalysis, since the mobility of adsorbed molecules ultimately limits the rate of the overall processes. Diffusion, i.e. the irregular thermal motion of the molecules, is the dominating process.…

The oriented-gas model based on the additivity hypothesis is widely used in predicting the macroscopic nonlinear optical susceptibility of a molecular crystal from molecular (hyper)polarizability calculations. Here, we argue that the intermolecular hydrogen bond interactions will break the additivity relationship for…

Abstract Seven dicarboxylates of calcium were synthesized. The effect of dicarboxylate on the formation of β‐form polypropylene was investigated by X‐ray diffraction. Calcium pimelate, calcium suberate, calcium phthalate, and calcium terephthalate have been found to be an effective β‐nucleator. The K x values of the i…

Abstract The influence of a nonpigmenting β‐nucleating additive in the crystallization of isotactic polypropylene (iPP) is investigated by differential scanning calorimetry and X‐ray diffraction. It is found that this additive induces the formation of a very high level of the trigonal modification of iPP. The crystall…

In this paper we simulate the resistive heating of carbon nanotubes (CNT's) during field emission (FE) using the one-dimensional heat equation including radiation and conductive losses. The simulations are in relatively good agreement with our recent experiments in which we measured the heating of individual CNT's to…

Brittle fracture in silicon is simulated with molecular dynamics utilizing a modified embedded atom method potential. The simulations produce propagating crack speeds that are in agreement with previous experimental results over a large range of fracture energy. The dynamic fracture toughness is found to be equal to t…

Applying the novel exact-exchange (EXX) Kohn-Sham method within time-dependent density-functional theory, we obtained the optical absorption spectrum of bulk silicon in good agreement with experiments including excitonic features. Analysis of the EXX kernel shows that inclusion of the Coulomb coupling of electron-hole…

The study of quantum phase transitions, which are zero-temperature phase transitions between distinct states of matter, is of current interest in research since it allows for a description of low-temperature properties based on universal relations. Here we show that the crystal green dioptase Cu_6Si_6O_18 . 6H_2O, kno…

Experimental data obtained for PbFe$_{1 / 2}$Ta$_{1 / 2}$O$_{3}$ (PFT) and NaNbO$_{3}$: Gd (NaNbGd) single crystals show a diffused dielectric permittivity peak that is inherent to relaxor ferroelectrics. However some deviations from the normal relaxor properties were also observed and are under discussion. One of the…

We determine the effective dipolar interaction between single domain two-dimensional ferromagnetic particles (islands or dots), taking into account their finite size. The first correction term decays as 1/D^5, where D is the distance between particles. If the particles are arranged in a regular two-dimensional array a…

The mass transfer of interstitial impurities in a crystalline lattice under the influence of the fast-moving deformation disturbance of the type of a shock wave is considered. The velocity of the movement of the disturbance is supposed to be compared with the characteristic velocity of the relaxation of the diffusion…

In this paper we present a study of magnetic order of quantum Heisenberg spins on pyrochlore type lattices: a lattice of corner sharing tetrahedra. We use the Cluster Variation Approximation with the tetrahedron as basic cluster. We find that in case of anti-ferromagnetic nearest--neighbour exchange there is no long--…
