The oxidation of CO on single Pd atoms anchored to MgO(100) surface oxygen vacancies is studied with temperature-programmed-reaction mass spectrometry and infrared spectroscopy. In one-heating-cycle experiments, CO(2), formed from O(2) and CO preadsorbed at 90 K, is detected at 260 and 500 K. Ab-initio simulations sug…
Topology related changes in the local density of states near the apex of carbon nanocones are investigated using both tight-binding and ab initio calculations. Sharp resonant states are found to dominate the electronic structure in the region close to the Fermi energy. The strength and the position of these states wit…
Pure and La doped Ba0.6Sr0.4TiO3 thin (BST) films were fabricated via the metalorganic solution deposition technique using carboxylate-alkoxide precursors on Pt–Si substrates. The La doping concentration, from 0 to 10 mol %, was found to have a strong influence on the 750 °C postdeposition annealed films material prop…
The coherent interband dynamics of optically excited two-dimensional lateral surface superlattices driven by an in-plane static electric field has been investigated. The linear absorption, the spectrally-resolved pump-probe four-wave mixing signals and spatial coherent wavepacket evolution in the time-domain are obtai…
Crossing multiwalled carbon nanotubes are connected by irradiating the junction in a scanning electron microscope. The aggregation of hydrocarbons and successive transformation into amorphous carbon under the electron beam is used to solder nanotubes and to make a mechanical junction. Transmission electron microscopy…
ABSTRACT Whey protein film solubility decreased as film‐forming solution heating time and temperature increased. No differences were observed in solubility between films soaked in water at 25 °C for 24 h and 100 °C for 4 min. However, the degree of swelling was significantly larger for films soaked at 100 °C. Films be…
Using multi‐anvil high‐pressure devices and synchrotron radiation, X‐ray in situ observations of HfO 2 under high pressure and high temperature have been performed to investigate its phase relations and compression behavior. An orthorhombic phase (orthoI) is stable from 4 to 14.5 GPa below 1250°–1400°C and transforms…
Bimetallic gold and silver particles, a core−shell type structure, have been prepared by a UV-photoactivation technique. The optical absorption spectra are recorded and compared with various absorption profiles due to Au−Ag particles described in the literature. Initially Au particles formed by UV irradiation, which a…
When microcapsules of phase change materials (PCMS) are added to textiles, they absorb heat energy as they change from a solid to a liquid state and release heat as they return to a solid state. This project quantifies the effect of PCMS in clothing on heat flow from the body during temperature transients. One- and tw…
MnFe 2 O 4 nanoparticles in a size range of 4−14 nm have been synthesized from water-in-toluene reverse micelles by using sodium dodecylbenzenesulfonate (NaDBS) as surfactant. The blocking temperature, saturation magnetization, and coercivity of the nanoparticles are clearly size-dependent. The blocking temperature in…
Access to structure–processing property relationships in nanocomposites is given through the work undertaken by these authors. Their approach relies on linking cubic silsesquioxane (see Figure) by organic tethers. The analytical data presented here form strong foundations for the formation of nanocomposites with well-…
As the consumer and industrial requirements for compact, high-power density electrical power systems grow substantially over the next decade, development of high power/energy density capacitor technology is a major enabling technology component element. For microsecond to fractional-second electrical energy storage, d…
The sensitivity of transport in colossal magnetoresistance (CMR) manganites to external electric and magnetic fields is examined using field effect configurations with ${\mathrm{La}}_{0.7}{\mathrm{Ca}}_{0.3}{\mathrm{MnO}}_{3}$ (LCMO), ${\mathrm{Na}}_{0.7}{\mathrm{Sr}}_{0.3}{\mathrm{MnO}}_{3}$, ${\mathrm{La}}_{0.7}{\ma…
Special carbon! Carbon nanofilaments differ from graphite and soot catalysts in their high stability during the oxidative dehydrogenation of ethylbenzene to styrene. The high yields of styrene achieved suggest that a first industrial application of carbon nanofilaments in catalysis is possible.
Nitroaromatic explosives can be detected in a simple and rapid method by the quenching of the photoluminescence of fluorescent polysiloles. Quenching is achieved by electron transfer from the conduction band of the polysiloles to electron-poor molecules such as picric acid, nitrobenzene, 2,4-dinitrotoluene (DNT), and…
An emission band at 2.4 eV, called the green band, is observed in most ZnO samples, no matter what growth technique is used. Sometimes this band includes fine structure, which consists mainly of doublets, repeated with a longitudinal-optical-phonon-energy spacing (72 meV). We have developed a vibronic model for the gr…
Magnetic circular dichroism (MCD) spectra of Zn1−xTMxO (TM=Sc, Ti, V, Cr, Mn, Co, Ni, and Cu) films were measured to clarify their magneto-optical properties. Noticeable magneto-optical effect was not observed for Zn1−xScxO, Zn1−xTixO, Zn1−xVxO, and Zn1−xCrxO. On the contrary, Zn1−xMnxO, Zn1−xCoxO, Zn1−xNixO, and Zn1−…
A novel divergent approach was developed for the synthesis of dendritic aliphatic polyester structures using an acetal-protected anhydride derivative of 2,2-bis(hydroxymethyl)propionic acid as the acylating agent. This divergent synthesis is remarkable, because unlike all others, it only requires a small excess of rea…
The purpose of this study is to derive a solid solution model for aluminous (Si < 3 a.p.f.u.) chlorites encountered in metapelites over a wide range of P-T conditions. A compilation of chlorite compositions in quartz-bearing rocks led us to propose a four-thermodynamic-component (Mg-amesite, clinochlore, daphnite,…
Abstract The aim was to prepare fibers with diameters below the micrometer range characterized by specific bulk morphologies and surface topologies. Such materials are of interest for various applications including reinforcement, sensors or filtration as well as the formation of functional tubes by the use of fiber te…
