The Ge(001)-(2 1 0 3)-Pb surface reconstruction with a lead coverage of 5/3 monolayer is on the borderline between the low-coverage covalently-bonded and high-coverage metallic lead overlayers. This gives rise to an unusual low-temperature phase transition with concomitant changes in the bonding configuration. Both th…

A series of chitosan/chitin samples with DA's varying between 5.2 and 89% was prepared from the reacetylation under soft conditions of a unique chitosan sample allowing the preservation of the chain distribution. The study of the variation of pH for the same concentration of amine groups, at different ionic strengths,…

Siliceous ordered mesoporous materials are well-investigated and -covered by several excellent reviews. Less work has been directed to non-siliceous materials, although these could have more wide-ranging applications. This review will address the synthesis and properties of non-siliceous ordered mesoporous materials,…

Rigorous coupled wave analysis (RCWA) approach is employed to determine electromagnetic (EM) scattering from cylindrical (circular and noncircular) spatially, inhomogeneous, anisotropic material objects. From the late 70's to the present, the RCWA approach has become an extremely important technique for the study of E…

Photocatalytic properties of obliquely deposited TiO<SUB>2</SUB> thin films with various shaped columns were investigated. The columnar films such as zigzag, cylinder and helix were prepared by dynamic oblique deposition (DOD) method. It was found that the optimum morphology for surface photocatalytic reaction has bee…

We investigated the interaction of a laser-induced cavitation bubble with an elastic tissue model by high-speed photography with up to 5 Mill. frames/sec. The elastic material consisted of a transparent polyacrylamide (PAA) gel whose elastic properties can be controlled by modifying the water content to mimic various…

Abstract A blend of a pullulan polymer and 1,2,6‐hexanetriol as a plasticizer were used to study the effect of melt processing techniques on the physical properties of the resulting materials. The main advantage of pullulan is its linear polysaccharide chain model structure. Hot‐melt extrusion and compression molding…

We observe a saturable change in the refractive index induced by two-photon absorption in a photochromic polymer, while the erasable nature of the polymer is maintained. As a result, the support region of spatial frequencies of the recorded data bits caused by the refractive index change in the polymer is enlarged. Th…

We present an ab initio pseudopotential calculation of the structural properties of stannous oxide SnO. We discuss the delicate balance of different contributions to the cohesion of this material, and compare the monoxide to the dioxide ${\mathrm{SnO}}_{2}.$ We point out how different choices concerning the pseudopote…

Abstract The influence of the concentration of paraffin wax on the penetration rate, P , and the average diffusion coefficient, D , of kerosene in an SBR–NR composite and also on the coefficient of viscosity were investigated. All decreased with the addition of wax. Also, the effect of the concentration of paraffin wa…

Abstract Toluene diisocyanate reacts with poly(propylene glycol) during the synthesis of some urethane acrylate oligomers. The present work deals with kinetic studies and molecular characterization of the uncatalyzed bulk reaction of these two difunctional monomers. Back titration and H 1 ‐NMR are used to follow the r…

Abstract Composite materials were prepared utilizing whole carpet and LDPE. The addition of compatibilizers during processing was shown to provide an improvement in the mechanical performance of such materials. It is believed that the addition of a reactive compatibilizer to the system increases both the compatibility…

We have compared the magnitudes of reversible and irreversible polarization components of sol–gel-derived Nd3+- and Fe3+-doped PZT (53/47) thin films on platinized silicon substrates. Beyond the switching field, it was found that the reversible component of the polarization remains almost constant both for donor- (Nd3…

This letter presents a clear explanation of the electron emission mechanism of the high-resistivity N-doped diamond cathode. Due to the very low barrier to emission of electrons from the N-doped diamond conduction band into vacuum, electrons in the conduction band of diamond can establish an appreciable leakage curren…

We present experimental evidence of nanojunction structures explicitly observed after application of high electric fields on multiwall carbon nanotube arrays. The electric field as well as thermal effects result in carbon–carbon bond breaking and redeposition leading to nanojunction formation. The growth mechanism of…

The hysteresis area as a function of frequency of the time-varying external electric field—hysteresis dispersion—for ferroelectric Pb(Zr0.52Ti0.48)O3 is measured, and the Monte-Carlo simulation on the hysteresis dispersion for a model ferroelectric lattice is performed too. We demonstrate the scaling behavior of the s…
