Pd-catalyzed Sonogashira cross-coupling reactions were used to synthesize novel π-conjugated oligothienylene-ethynylene dendrons and their corresponding terpyridine-based ligands. Their complexation with Ru(II) led to interesting novel metallodendrimers with rich spectroscopic properties. All new compounds were fully…
The intramolecular exchange interactions within the single-molecule magnet (SMM) ``butterfly'' molecule [Fe${}_{3}$Ln(${\ensuremath{\mu}}_{3}$-O)${}_{2}$(CCl${}_{3}$COO)${}_{8}$(H${}_{2}$O)(THF)${}_{3}$], where Ln(III) represents a lanthanide cation, are determined in a combined experimental [x-ray magnetic circular d…
Semicrystalline/fluorinated side-chain crystalline block copolymers, dinonylphenyl end-capped poly(ethylene glycol)- block -poly(fluorinated methyl methacrylate) (DNPEPEO- b -PFMAs), were synthesized by ATRP of 3,3,4,4,5,5,6,6,7,7,8,8,9,9,10,10,10-heptadecafluorodecyl methacrylate using a surfactant poly(ethylene glyc…
Measurements of the temperature dependence of the charge carrier mobility in single-crystal chemical vapour deposition diamond using the transient current technique are presented in a temperature range from 2 K to room temperature. An α-source is used to create free charge carriers in the diamond bulk. The evolution o…
Enhancements of the Raman signal by the newly prepared gold-palladium and gold-platinum double-shell hollow nanoparticles were examined and compared with those using gold nanocages (AuNCs). The surface-enhanced Raman spectra (SERS) of thiophenol adsorbed on the surface of AuNCs assembled into a Langmuir-Blodgett monol…
We demonstrate that the inclusion of van der Waals dispersive interaction sensibly improves the prediction of lattice constants by density functional theory in iron-chalcogenides (FeCh) superconductor compounds, namely FeSe and FeTe. We show how generalized gradient approximation (GGA) for the exchange correlation pot…
Heteroepitaxial growth of Cr metal on Nb-doped SrTiO₃(001) is accompanied by Cr diffusion to interstitial sites within the first few atomic planes, an anchoring of the Cr film to the substrate, charge transfer from Cr to Ti, and metallization of the near-surface region, as depicted in the figure. The contact resistanc…
The angular spectrum (AS) method is a popular solution to the Helmholtz equation without the use of approximations. Modified band-limited AS methods are of particular interest for the cases of high-off-axis and large distance propagation problems, because conventional AS methods are impractical due to requirements reg…
Surface pyroelectricity: Centrosymmetric crystals of α-glycine display an anomalous quadrupole-like pyroelectric current. This observation implies the formation of water–glycine hybrid polar layers at the (010) faces of the α-glycine crystals (see picture).
The structures of double molybdates with general compositions ALn(MoO4)2 (A – alkaline metals, Cu or Tl) have been considered and compared. It has been shown that the ionic radii ratio RLn/RA is a key factor governing crystal symmetry. Different structure fields in ALn(MoO4)2 (A = Li+, Na+, K+, Cu+, Rb+, Ag+, Cs+, Tl+…
A fast dark-field scattering technique capturing full broadband spectra with millisecond time-resolution enables us to monitor the growth or assembly of single nano-objects in situ and in real time. Applying this technique to study the growth of single gold nanorods, together with scanning electron microscopy and fini…
We report a face-shear mode ultrasonic motor (USM) made of [011]c poled Zt ± 45° cut 0.24Pb(In1/2Nb1/2)O3-0.46Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3-0.30PbTiO3 single crystal, which takes advantage of the extremely large d36 = 2368 pC/N. This motor has a maximum no-load linear velocity of 182.5 mm/s and a maximum output force of 1.03 N und…
Graphene nanosheet (GNs)/polyaniline (PANI) nanofiber composites were prepared by oxidative polymerization of aniline in a GNs dispersed 1 mol/L HCl solution. The phase composition of the composites was analyzed by Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy and X-ray Diffraction. The thermoelectric properties of the comp…
Chemical vapor deposition based graphene grown on copper foil is attractive for electronic applications owing to its reliable growth process, large area coverage, and relatively defect free nature. However, transfer of the synthesized graphene to host substrate for subsequent device fabrication is extremely sensitive…
Energy absorption in multiferroic materials stems typically from strain relaxation which can be strong even when no extrinsic defects exist in the material. Computer simulations of a simple two-dimensional model on a generic, proper ferroelastic material identify the dissipative mechanisms associated with the dynamica…
We demonstrate that Zn(Mg)O:Ga layers can be grown by molecular beam epitaxy in a two-dimensional mode with high structural perfection up to Ga mole fractions of about 6.5%. The doping efficiency is practically 100% so that free-carrier concentrations of almost 1021 cm−3 can be realized providing a zero-crossover wave…
Three isomorphic decanuclear heterometallic 3d–4f Ln 2 Cu 8 clusters, formulated as [Ln 2 Cu 8 (μ 2 -OH) 2 (μ 3 -OH) 2 (ClO 4 ) 2 (HTMHSA) 4 (H 2 O) 10 ]·15H 2 O (Ln = La ( 1, La 2 Cu 8 ); Ln = Gd ( 2, Gd 2 Cu 8 ); Ln = Dy ( 3, Dy 2 Cu 8 ), H 5 TMHSA = 3-[ N -tris(hydroxymethyl)methylamino]-2-hydroxyprop-anesulfonic a…
Asymmetrical electrical boundary conditions in (001)-oriented Pb(Zr0.2TiO0.8)O3 (PZT) epitaxial ultrathin ferroelectric films are exploited to control surface photochemical reactivity determined by the sign of the surface polarization charge. It is shown that the preferential orientation of polarization in the as-grow…
We investigate the origins of experimentally observed differences in the structure-directing capabilities of polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) and polyethylene oxide (PEO) for the shape-selective, colloidal synthesis of {100}-faceted Ag nanostructures. Using dispersion-corrected density-functional theory, we calculate the bi…
The low cycle fatigue behavior of Alloy 617 has been evaluated at 850 °C and 950 °C, the temperature range of particular interest for the intermediate heat exchanger on a proposed high-temperature gas-cooled nuclear reactor. Cycles to failure were measured as a function of total strain range and varying strain rate. R…
