The electronic conductance of polymer--carbon nanotube multilayered composite films assembled by the spin-spray layer-by-layer method is investigated. Our measurements show that the film conductance per bilayer ${\ensuremath{\sigma}}_{1}$ vanishes for film thickness below a critical value, and above this threshold it…

Homojunction transparent thin-film In2O3 transistors were fabricated at room temperature. Self-assembled In2O3 source–channel–drain structures were grown by pulsed electron beam deposition using a shadow mask with a 300 µm diameter wire as an obstacle placed at ∼100 µm distance from the substrate for growing the chann…

Abstract The effects of zinc oxide addition and sintering parameters on the structure and dielectric properties of barium titanate are observed. Different percentage of ZnO ranging from 0.30 to 1 wt. % is doped in barium titanate. Both the doped and undoped samples are sintered at temperatures ranging from 1250°C to 1…

High-quality planar alignment was achieved in the hexagonal columnar phase of 2,3,6,7,10,11-hexahexyloxytriphenylene by applying an oscillating shear using a piezoelectric actuator. Discotic liquid crystals with thicknesses up to 38 µm could be aligned using this technique, with the molecular columns aligning parallel…

In Fe-based superconductors, electron doping is often realized by the substitution of transition-metal atoms for Fe. In order to investigate how the electronic structure of the parent compound is influenced by Zn substitution, which supplies nominally four extra electrons per substituted atom but is expected to induce…

An approach to fabricate Ba0.5Sr0.5TiO3 (BST) films with a preferred orientation on a glass substrate by pulsed laser deposition was developed. To ensure a preferred crystallographic orientation, we utilized a molecularly thin Ca2Nb3O10 perovskite nanosheet as a seed layer and successfully fabricated BST films with a…

In situ low-voltage transmission electron microscopy (TEM) was performed to study the evolution of small Pt clusters on suspended graphene. Pt clusters, trapped by the edge of holes, generally take a stable shape of truncated octahedron for sizes ranging from sub-1 to ∼5 nm. The interaction to the graphene dots takes…

Abstract A new phase of silver iodate, β‐AgIO3, was obtained at 2.7 GPa by heating the α‐AgIO3 precursor above 240 °C. β‐AgIO3 is the first iodate obtained at high pressure that stabilizes under normal conditions. The crystal structure was determined by X‐ray powder diffraction and Rietveld refinement. In comparison t…

Motivated by recent reports [L\"uders et al., Phys. Rev. B 80, 241102 (2009)] of room-temperature ferromagnetism in vanadium oxide based superlattices, a single-site dynamical mean-field study of the dependence of the paramagnetic-ferromagnetic phase boundary on superlattice geometry was performed. An examination of v…

In this paper we attempt to answer two questions on graphene from a mechanic's viewpoint: why does this one-atom-thick monolayer have finite bending stiffness to ensure its stability? and what is its wrinkle mechanism? As for the first question, it is found that the repulsive residual internal moment in the bond angle…

Performances of double-emulsion techniques (W/O/W and W/O/O) and ionotropic gelation process were compared to achieve encapsulation of gadolinium MRI contrast agents (GdCAs) into biocompatible polymeric nanoparticles (NPs) with high Gd-loadings. The better approach proved to be ionotropic gelation with H[Gd(DOTA)] as…

Abstract Dolomite (CaMg(CO3)2) constitutes half of the global carbonates. Thus, many calcareous soils have been developing rather from dolomitic rocks than from calcite (CaCO3)‐dominated limestone. We developed a physical fractionation procedure based on three fractionation steps, using sonication with subsequent dens…
