We have investigated the molecular orientation in the films of polyamic acid (PAA) with azobenzene units in the backbone structure. Anisotropic molecular orientation was induced by irradiation of linearly polarized ultraviolet light (LPUVL). The change in the molecular orientation caused by subsequent thermal imidizat…

Neutral alkyl-substituted spirobiphenalenyl radicals (see formula) were recently reported that exhibit bistability as a consequence of temperature-dependent hysteretic switching. The high- and low-temperature forms display significant differences in their electrical, optical, and magnetic properties.

Germanium‐filled SiO 2 nanotubes and aligned SiO 2 nanofibers are synthesized via a two‐stage process: thermal evaporation of SiO powder, followed by laser ablation of a Ge target. The nanotubes are either partially filled with Ge nanoparticles/nanorods or completely filled with Ge nanowires, forming Ge/SiO2 nanocable…

Fluoride is a naturally occurring element in many water supplies, and it may cause fluorosis. The hydrotalcite was synthesized and characterized before and after the retention of fluoride ions by x-ray diffraction, electron microscopy, and IR. The thermally treated hydrotalcite was evaluated for the sorption of fluori…

Copper and silver films are being considered for future multilevel interconnect systems. The reduction of feature size has also demanded the use of different low-dielectric materials (e.g., parylenes) in place of conventional silicon dioxide based layers. Adhesion of these materials with each other is a major hurdle i…

A technique has been developed for the measurement of the K22 twist elastic constant in nematic liquid crystal materials. This involves the measurement of the Freedericksz transition voltages in untwisted linear and π-twist regions in a wedge cell geometry. The method avoids the need for the accurate determination of…

We propose a new solidification process in crystallizable polymers in which lamellar clustering takes place in the crystallization process under high supercoolings. Clustering of lamellae is a two-step process: the first step is the exclusion process of chain ends from the space of a single Gaussian chain accompanied…

The dc and ac conductivities of Mn-doped ZnO were investigated at temperatures from 10 to 100 K. The temperature dependence of the dc conductivity from 10 to 100 K shows an abrupt change at ∼18 K, manifesting a much lower activation energy for conduction below 18 K. From 10 to 18 K, the ac conductivity, σac(ω), varies…
