Theoretical stability of the polarization in a thin semiconducting ferroelectric
The size effect in ferroelectrics is examined by considering the semiconductivity of the ferroelectric. This approach is applied to a theoretical investigation of the stability of the spontaneous polarization in a ferroelectric film on a semiconductor using a homogeneous Ginzburg-Landau theory. The band structure in t…
Photophysical studies of m-terphenyl-sensitized visible and near-infrared emission from organic 1∶1 lanthanide ion complexes in methanol solutions
The luminescence properties of several 1∶1 lanthanide ion (Sm3+, Tb3+, Dy3+, Pr3+, Nd3+, Ho3+, Tm3+ and Yb3+) complexes based on the m-terphenyl-containing ligands 1–3 have been studied in methanol solutions. The organic complexes show their typical luminescence in the visible (Sm3+, Tb3+, Dy3+ and Pr3+) and in the ne…
Homo- (4f, 4f) and Heterodimetallic (4f, 4f‘) Complexes. The First Structurally Characterized Example of a Heterodimetallic (Yb, La) Complex (1‘). Magnetic Properties of 1‘ and of a Homodinuclear (Gd, Gd) Analogue
A structural determination confirms that the tripodal ligand tris[4-(2-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl)-3-aza-3-butenyl]amine (LH3) offers two coordination sites, an inner N4O3 one and an outer O6 one, in which two identical or different lanthanide ions can be successively encapsulated, thus providing access to a general rout…
Controlled microstructures of amphiphilic cationic azobenzene-montmorillonite intercalation compounds
The intercalation of two amphiphilic cationic azobenzene derivatives into the interlayer space of montmorillonite has been conducted by the ion exchange reactions between sodium montmorillonite andp-(ω-trimethylammoniopentyloxy)-p′-(dodecyloxy)azobenzene bromide or p-(ω-trimethylammoniodecyloxy)-p′-(octyloxy)azobenzen…
Dibenzotetraaza[14]annulenes: versatile ligands for transition and main group metal chemistry
This article presents an overview of the chemistry of metal complexes of dibenzotetraaza[14]annulene ligands and highlights most of the recent developments. The title tetraazamacrocycles are related to the porphyrins but have a smaller N4 coordination cavity ‘hole size’ and typically possess a non-planar, saddle-shape…
Selective Decoration of a Phase-Separated Diblock Copolymer with Thiol-Passivated Gold Nanocrystals
Nanocrystalline gold particles passivated with alkane- and arenethiols were deposited on microphase-separated ultrathin films of poly(styrene- block -methyl methacrylate). The nanocrystals preferentially adsorbed to the polystyrene phases over areas of the substrate as large as 10 μm 2, as seen by transmission electro…
Platinum nanoparticles stabilized by CO and octanethiol ligands or polymers: FT-IR, NMR, HREM and WAXS studies
The reaction of Pt2(dba)3 with CO leads rapidly to the formation of platinum nanoparticles. Stabilization of the particles was achieved by octanethiol or various polymers. Spectroscopic studies demonstrate the coordination of thiol at the surface of the particles. The size distribution is quasi monodisperse and center…
Resonant magnetic quantum tunneling through thermally activated states
We present a theory of resonant quantum tunneling of large spins through thermally activated states. It gives numerical results that are in good agreement with data from recent magnetic quantum tunneling experiments in Mn acetate. We show that neither dipolar fields nor crystal-field perturbations, acting separately,…
Influence of Water-Soluble Polymers on the Dissolution of Nifedipine Solid Dispersions with Combined Carriers.
The objective of this investigation was to clarify the influence of water-soluble polymers on the dissolution behavior of nifedipine from solid dispersions with combined carriers. All the solid dispersions of nifedipine were prepared by the fusion method using nicotinamide and 4 different water-soluble polymers, hydro…
The chemistry of deposits formed from acrylic acid plasmas
SIMS and XPS were used to characterise the chemistry of thin plasma polymerised acrylic acid films (ppAAc), and to determine how this was influenced by plasma power. Quartz microbalance weight measurements were used to monitor the effect of power on the deposition rate and identify the uptake of water vapour by the fi…
The Alpha Substitution Effect on Phthalocyanine Aggregation
The dimerization and tendency to form higher aggregates of two isomeric metal-free phthalocyanine compounds with tetracumylphenoxy peripheral substitution at the alpha (1 or 4, 5 or 8, 9 or 12, 13 or 16) and beta (2 or 3, 6 or 7, 10 or 11, 14 or 15) positions has been analysed by spectroscopic measurements. The dimeri…
Monitoring scientific developments from a dynamic perspective: Self‐organized structuring to map neural network research
With the help of bibliometric mapping techniques, we have developed a methodology of “self-organized” structuring of scientific fields. This methodology is applied to the field of neural network research. We propose a field-definition based on the present situation. This is done by letting the data themselves generate…
Conjugated porphyrin oligomers from monomer to hexamer
A series of conjugated porphyrin oligomers have been prepared and the evolution in their electronic properties is discussed; the crystal structure of the dimer is presented, as well as the MALDI TOF mass spectrum of the hexamer.
Reaction mechanism of direct decomposition of nitric oxide over Co- and Mn-based perovskite-type oxides
Kinetics of NO decomposition have been investigated over La0.8Sr0.2CoO3 and La0.4Sr0.6Mn0.8Ni0.2O3 perovskite-type oxides. The NO decomposition reaction was practically first-order for NO in the range 0.1–0.5 vol.% NO. The activity was decreased by the presence of gaseous oxygen up to 9 vol.% with the reaction order b…
Small-Diameter Vascular Graft Prostheses: Current Status
In contrast to large-diameter vascular grafts (i.e. larger than 5 mm) which remain excellent for more than 10 years after implantation, small-diameter vascular grafts of both Dacron and Teflon occlude rapidly upon implantation. In this overview article, the strategies used to improve the patency of these small-diamete…
Structural investigations on 'smectic D' and related mesophases
We have performed time resolved diffraction experiments in order to obtain a better insight upon the metastable phases surrounding some thermotropic mesophases of cubic Ia 3 d and Im 3 m symmetries. These metastable phases are columnar hexagonal, smectic or tetragonal, depending on the nature of the mesogenic molecule…
Diffusion kinetics of the carburization and silicidation of Ti3SiC2
The ternary carbide Ti3SiC2 possesses a unique set of properties that could render it a material of considerable technological impact. The motivation for this work was to enhance the hardness and oxidation resistance of Ti3SiC2 by altering its surface chemistry. Reaction of Ti3SiC2 with single crystal Si wafers in the…
Mechanism of polarization response in the ergodic phase of a relaxor ferroelectric
It is shown that the effects of large dc bias and ac driving fields on the dielectric permittivity of single crystals of ${\mathrm{PbMg}}_{1/3}{\mathrm{Nb}}_{2/3}{\mathrm{O}}_{3}$ (PMN) relaxor ferroelectric exhibit very different behavior, including anisotropy and sign of the effect, which is traced up to the high-te…
