Abstract The new convenient method for the synthesis of high molecular weight aromatic poly(1,3,4‐oxadiazole)s (PODs) has been proposed. These polymers were prepared by “one‐pot” procedure from dicarboxylic acid and hydrazine's salt (sulfate, phosphate) or dicarboxylic acid dihydrazides. The mixture of ionic liquid an…

The electrical properties of polycrystalline Pb2Sb3DyTi5O18 were investigated by complex impedance spectroscopy. The dielectric relaxation was found to be of polydispersive non-Debye type, and relaxation frequency shifts to higher frequencies with increasing temperature. Evidence of temperature dependent electrical re…

A layer-by-layer (LBL) assembled electrochromic (EC) film was investigated by using poly(aniline- N -butylsulfonate)s (PANBS) as an electrochromic anionic polymer, and acid-doped polyaniline (PAN) and vinylbenzyldimethyl- n -octadecylammonium salts (VBOD) as a polycation. The layer sequence of the EC films was varied…

The reversible protonation of carbon single-walled nanotubes (SWNTs) in sulfuric acid and Nafion was investigated using solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and Raman spectroscopies. Magic-angle spinning (MAS) was used to obtain high-resolution 13C and 1H-13C cross polarization (CP) NMR spectra. The 13C NMR ch…

This study focuses on the experimental investigation of the time-dependent effects of a commercial soft lead zirconate titanate material at room temperature. Samples in initially unpoled states were subjected to a cyclic stepwise electric field which was kept constant at different levels for 300 s. Due to ferroelectri…

The thermal stability and the atomic ordering of single-crystal Heusler alloy Co2FeSi layers grown by molecular beam epitaxy on GaAs(001) have been studied. We found that the Co2FeSi layers have a long-range atomic order and crystallize in a partly disordered L21 structure in the low growth temperature (TG) regime. Th…

We investigated the third-order nonlinear optical properties of several donor-substituted cyanoethynylethene molecules in the zero-frequency limit. We observed nonlinearities that are extraordinarily large relative to the small molecular mass of these molecules and that are within a factor of 50 from the fundamental l…
