To increase the excellent light-emitting properties of the Eu3+ ion, macrobicyclic and macrotricyclic ligands 7 – 10, incorporating a 18-membered tetralactam ring (acting as a lanthanide binding site) and a sensitizer group (2,2′-bipyridine or 2,2′-bipyridine 1,1′-dioxide moiety), were synthesized. The mononuclear and…

Poly- l -aspartic acid (PLAsp), which consists of ca. 50 Asp residues in a linear polypeptide, has been immobilized on controlled pore glass (CPG) and evaluated for its selectivity and binding strength in the complexation of metal ions from aqueous solutions. The carboxylate side chain of Asp (p K a = 5.4 ± 0.2) is th…

A novel polarizer made from two-dimensional photonic bandgap materials was demonstrated theoretically. This polarizer is fundamentally different from the conventinal ones. It can function in a wide frequency range with high performance and the size can be made very compact, which renders it useful as a micropolarizer…

Several samples of poly(ethylene terephthalate- co -2,6-naphthalene dicarboxylate) were synthesized with different contents of dimethyl-2,6-naphthalene dicarboxylate (DMN). The polymer samples were ground into powders, and steady-state and time-resolved fluorescence measurements were carried out on these copolymers. T…

Different thermodynamics in phenolic blends with different polymeric modifiers, i.e., phenoxy, poly(decamethylene adipate), poly(ethylene oxide), and poly(vinyl alcohol), calculated by the Painter and Coleman association model (PCAM) are examined. The thermodynamics is calculated based upon the equilibrium constants d…

Atomic force microscopic image on mica substrate, which was dipped for 10 min in an aqueous solution of fifth-generation poly(amido amine) dendrimer with hydroxyl end groups, displayed a flatter texture of dendrimer-adsorbed surface. On the external contrast variation of small-angle neutron scattering for aqueous dend…

A new experimental set-up controlled by computer has been made to measure the pyroelectric charge of ferroelectric materials with a relatively high conductivity at slow rates of temperature variation. It allowed us to obtain the polarisation vs. temperature behaviour of PZT with various compositions in the whole range…

We report the synthesis and room temperature crystal structures of the heretofore unknown, metastable manganites La2-2xSr1+2xMn2O7+delta (0.5 < x < 0.9) via high-temperature (T=1650 C) quenching followed by low-temperature (T=400 C) annealing to fill oxygen vacancies; this approach enables access to the electronic, ma…

Dynamic plastic response of a submarine oil pipeline to an underwater explosion bubble is studied in this paper. A detailed fluid-structure analysis is given to find the fluid forces acting on the pipeline. Assuming the pipeline is made from rigid, perfectly plastic material, we obtain the hydroplastic equation govern…

We revealed the existence of epitaxial α-Fe2O3 grains in Ba-ferrite thin films on sapphire (001) using synchrotron x-ray scattering. The antiferromagnetic α-Fe2O3 grains were formed during the crystallization of amorphous Ba-ferrite films grown on sapphire (001) by radio frequency sputtering deposition. The crystal do…

Using optical birefringence, small-angle neutron scattering, and field-theoretic methods, we study the effects of frustrating quenched randomness and connectivity on microphase ordering in copolymer melts. Our results show that randomly grafted copolymers are good model systems to examine these effects, and we find th…

The effects of racemization of aspartic acid on triple-helical formation have been studied using a "host-guest" peptide approach where selected guest Gly-Xaa-Yaa triplets were included within a common acetyl-(Gly-Pro-Hyp)3-Gly-Xaa-Yaa-(Gly-Pro-Hyp)4-Gly-Gly-amide frame-work. Four guest triplets, Gly-Asp-Hyp and Gly-As…
