Abstract The reactive compatibilization of blends of HDPE–PET [high‐density polyethylene–poly(ethylene terephthalate)] was investigated in this study. The compatibilizers used were two grafted copolymers prepared by reactive extrusion containing 1.20–2.30 wt % GMA such as HDPE‐ g ‐GMA and one statistical copolymer con…

Abstract Attempts were made to follow and correlate morphological development with the crosslinking density, or state of cure (SOC), and the surface tension (γ) of the rubber phase in dynamically cured thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs) based on ethylene propylene diene rubber and polypropylene (PP) with 60/40 (w/w) rati…

P. W. Bridgman’s early work on flow and fracture in the presence of hydrostatic pressure showed no systematic effect on strain hardening. This experimental observation led to the conclusions that yielding does not depend on hydrostatic stress and that the yielded material is incompressible. Classical plasticity theory…

Using deuterium NMR spectroscopy in a Couette cell, we observe shear-induced nematic ordering in the concentrated wormlike-micelle system CTAB/D(2)O, and our results are qualitatively consistent with birefringence studies, and in exact quantitative agreement with the degree of order measured in neutron-diffraction mea…

We study the effects of the magnetic field on the relaxation of the magnetization of small monodomain non-interacting particles with random orientations and distribution of anisotropy constants. Starting from a master equation, we build up an expression for the time dependence of the magnetization which takes into acc…

We study the long wavelength electromagnetic resonances of interacting cylinder arrays. By using a normal modes expansion where the effects of geometry and material are separated, it is shown that two parallel cylinders with different radii have electromagnetic modes distributed symmetrically about depolarization fact…

Using classical molecular dynamics simulations we examine the formation of craters during 0.4 - 100 keV Xe bombardment of Au. Our simulation results, and comparison with experiments and simulations of other groups, are used to examine to what extent analytical models can be used to predict the size and properties of c…

A sticky spheres model to describe slow dynamics of a nonequilibrium system is proposed. The dynamical slowing down is due to the presence of entropy barriers. An exact steady state analysis of the representative mean field equations, in the case when the clusters are chosen with the same a priori probability, demonst…

Beginning with a Heisenberg spin Hamiltonian for the manganese ions in the ${\mathrm{Mn}}_{12}\mathrm{Ac}$ molecule, we find a number of model exact low-energy states of the system whose spectrum corresponds to the ordering of the states proposed from experiments. We also obtain the spatial symmetry classification of…

The structure and magnetic properties of boron-oxide-encapsulated magnetic nanocapsules fabricated by arc discharge in diborane $({\mathrm{B}}_{2}{\mathrm{H}}_{6})$ atmosphere have been investigated. The structure of boron-oxide-coated Fe(B) nanocapsules is different from that of carbon-coated nanocapsules. In contras…

From the magnetic Compton-profile (MCP) measurement, we have directly differentiated for the first time the populations in two ${e}_{g}$-type orbitals ( ${x}^{2}{\ensuremath{-}y}^{2}$ and ${3z}^{2}{\ensuremath{-}r}^{2}$) in a manganite. The experimental MCP's along the $[001]$ direction for ${\mathrm{La}}_{2\ensuremat…

Capacitance relaxation in Ba0.8Sr0.2TiO3 thin film structures has been investigated. Slow decrease of the capacitance after a bias voltage switching on is explained by suppressing the film dielectric permittivity by the field of a p-n junction originated as a result of the oxygen vacancy migration in the bias field. A…

Multilayers of anisotropically nanostructured silicon (Si) have been fabricated and studied by polarization-resolved reflection measurements. Alternating layers having different refractive indices exhibit additionally a strong in-plane anisotropy of their refractive index (birefringence). Therefore, a stack of layers,…

Truly stable metastable states are an artifact of the mean-field approximation or the zero-temperature limit. If such appealing concepts in glass theory as configurational entropy are to have a meaning beyond these approximations, one needs to cast them in a form involving states with finite lifetimes. Starting from e…

Low-resistance and nonalloyed ohmic contacts to epitaxially grown n-ZnO were formed by exposing n-ZnO to an inductively coupled hydrogen and an argon plasma. Using Ti/Au, the specific contact resistivity of the ohmic contact was drastically decreased from 7.3×10−3 to 4.3×10−5 Ω cm2 by hydrogen plasma treatment. The ph…
