A facile and universal synthetic approach for preparing superlattice nanowire (SLNW) arrays is developed. In this method, two kinds of elements are alternately electrodeposited into the holes of the anodic alumina oxide (AAO) template, automatically in separate electrolytes by a programmed device. This method is not r…

AFM is used to characterize sodium poly(styrene sulfonate) (PSS) layers physisorbed from NaCl solutions with an ionic strength ranging between 0 and 1 M NaCl. Colloidal probe tapping mode imaging shows that domains of PSS salted brushes coexist with flatly adsorbed PSS. The brush area fraction increases with rising de…

The 1/f noise and temperature coefficient of resistance (TCR) are investigated in multiwall carbon nanotube (MWCNT) film bolometers since both affect the bolometer detectivity directly. A comparison is made between the MWCNT film bolometers and their single-wall carbon nanotube (SWCNT) counterparts. The intrinsic nois…

The two-orbital Hubbard model for the pnictides is studied numerically using the real-space Hartree--Fock approximation on finite clusters. Upon electron doping, states with a nonuniform distribution of charge are stabilized. The observed patterns correspond to charge stripes oriented perpendicular to the direction of…

Magnetic correlations appearing in polycrystalline Gd${}_{5}$Ge${}_{4}$ are studied. On the one hand, ac susceptibility measurements as functions of temperature at several dc fields and frequencies show the existence of ferromagnetic (FM) and antiferromagnetic (AFM) correlations in the paramagnetic (PM) region, where…

Abstract Localized oxide spots were grown at the grain boundaries of a technically relevant 30 at.% Nb–Ti β‐type titanium alloy to study the local electrochemical response. The grain boundaries selected were combinations of grains having different orientations and grain boundary angle. Crystallographic information of…

We report here that by good design, polyaniline (PANI) can be cytocompatible and formed into usable scaffolds for bio-medical applications. By adjusting the ratio of two monomers, aniline (AN) and metanilic acid (MA), a series of copolymers with different sulfonation degrees have been synthesized. Four-probe conductiv…

The kinetics of the TEMPO-mediated oxidation of cotton fibers were studied. It was revealed that the oxidation reaction of the cotton fibers by TEMPO/NaBr/NaClO system can be approximately described as two pseudo-first-order reaction kinetics that are based on the cellulose microstructure, namely the kinetic processes…
