Abstract Using conventional methods to synthesize magnetic nanoparticles (NPs) with uniform size is a challenging task. Moreover, the degradation of magnetic NPs is an obstacle to practical applications. The fabrication of silica‐shielded magnetite NPs on carbon nitride nanotubes (CNNTs) provides a possible route to o…

Deposition of submonolayer coverages of 3,4,9,10-perylenetetracarboxylic diimide onto NaCl(001) results in the bimodal growth of coexisting square and needle-shaped islands. The epitaxy of each island type was determined from molecular and atomic resolution noncontact atomic force microscopy images. Postdeposition, th…

Abstract A facile approach for synthesis of hyperbranched polycarbosilane from AB 2 monomer via UV‐activated hydrosilylation is presented in this communication. The polymerization process was monitored using real‐time FTIR spectroscopy and the resulting hyperbranched polycarbosilanes were characterized using 1 H‐NMR,…

Micro-structures that mimic the extracellular substratum promote cell growth and differentiation, while the cellular reaction to a nanostructure is poorly defined. To evaluate the cellular response to a nanoscaled surface, NIH 3T3 cells were grown on nanodot arrays with dot diameters ranging from 10 to 200 nm. The nan…

This study discusses the photoalignment effect in a liquid-crystal (LC) film that is doped with nanoparticles and azo-dye. The vertical alignment induced by nanoparticles of polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxanes can be changed into homogeneous alignment by the absorption of photoexcited azo-dye. An electrically tunabl…

Structural, magnetic, and magnetotransport behaviors of ${\text{Fe}}_{2}{\text{V}}_{1\ensuremath{-}x}{\text{Cr}}_{x}\text{Al}$ Heusler-type alloys have been investigated in the present work. From the detailed analysis of data it is observed that increasing Cr content promotes site disorder of Fe and Al, which in turn…

The dispersion diagrams of surface plasmon polaritons have been calculated for rectangular gratings, with very narrow wires, of varying depths. For gratings with a moderate height a family of vertical-standing-wave resonances may be excited, which consist of surface plasmons, oscillating on either vertical surface, co…

Superconductivity and phase relationships were explored in the Na-Fe-As system. The PbFCl-type 111 phase is stable only within a Na stoichiometry range of 1.00 to $\ensuremath{\sim}0.85$, and exhibits bulk superconductivity within an even narrower range around 0.90 in ${\text{Na}}_{0.9}\text{FeAs}$. In particular, sto…
