Both continuously tapered and discrete multilevel subwavelength grating structures are examined to determine the optimum method of designing antireflection surfaces. Continuously tapered gratings are designed with use of the optimal Klopfenstein graded index technique, while discrete multilevel stair-step gratings are…

Abstract NMR studies of the reaction of complexes of the type (L‐L)MoO(O 2 ) 2 (L – L= bidentate ligand) with strong Brønsted and Lewis acids prove that protons are transferred preferentially to an η 2 ‐peroxo and not to the oxo ligand. This behavior in proton transfer reactions is one critical point of the catalytic…

Si 3 N 4 (s) powders are vaporized in effusion cells, and the gaseous phase, analyzed by mass spectrometry, is composed of N 2 , Si, Si 2 , Si 3 , SiN, and Si 2 N. Owing to retarding vaporization of N 2 , effusion cells with different orifice sizes are used in order to determine the evaporation coefficient for this sp…

The asymptotic behavior of multichannel parallel relaxation processes for systems with dynamical disorder is investigated in the limit of a very large number of channels. An individual channel is characterized by a state vector x which, due to dynamical disorder, is a random function of time. A limit of the thermodyna…

Abstract Anthraquic conditions were defined in the soil taxonomy primarily for rice paddy soils, but little data have been published on relationships among saturation, reduction, and morphological features for such soils. We studied those parameters in three alternatively flooded and irrigated rice‐growing Alfisols. R…

Substitution of yttrium (${\mathrm{Y}}^{3+}$) in La-Ca-Mn-O perovskites of the ${\mathrm{ABO}}_{3}$ structure markedly affects the crystal structure and lattice constants as well as the resistivity (\ensuremath{\rho}), ferromagnetic transition temperature (${\mathit{T}}_{\mathit{c}}$), and the temperature correspondin…

The influence of surface energies on line resolution in screen printing was studied in this paper. Ink wettability on surfaces is decreased by decreasing the surface energies of substrates-the reduction in wettability improves the line resolution. For such high surface-energy substrates as ceramics, the effective mean…

Cellulose acetate (CA) was melt compounded with two different citric acid esters: triethyl citrate and acetyl triethyl citrate. It was observed, based on the glass transition temperatures, that both plasticizers were miscible with CA. The addition of plasticizer reduced the tensile modulus and increased the elongation…

Two laboratory melts of the standardized nitrogen-rich austenitic stainless steel specified in ISO 5832-9:1992(E) have been characterized with respect to corrosion properties, mechanical properties, and microstructure. The two melts differ essentially in nitrogen concentration, namely, 0.42 and 0.46 wt %, respectively…

Abstract Large‐scale quantum chemical simulations of the diffusion hops of empty cation and anion vacancies, as well as F + and F centers in MgO crystals have been done. The atomic configurations for 224‐site cluster and charge density distribution are analyzed for the equilibrium and saddle‐point configurations durin…

Sensitivity to nickel, cobalt, and chromium is common among the general population. The identification of these sensitivities is generally by the detection of cell-mediated immunity. We have reported previously the use of an indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay method to quantitate metal-specific antibodies in p…

The influence on their mesomorphic behaviour of introducing a carbon-carbon double bond into the chain, central linkage and alicyclic rings in the core of nematic and smectic liquid crystals (LCs) is discussed. Mesogens incorporating a trans-carbon-carbon double bond conjugated with an aromatic ring exhibit high mesop…

Wear and wear transition in silicon carbide ceramics during sliding have been investigated. Three different microstructures, i.e., solid‐state‐sintered silicon carbide, liquidphase‐sintered silicon carbide, and a liquid‐phase‐sintered SiC‐TiB 2 composite, were produced by hot pressing. Wear data and examinations of wo…

A large number of incorrect crystal structures is being published today. These structures are proving to be a particular problem to those of us who are interested in comparing structural moieties found in the databases in order to develop structure-property relationships. Problems can reside in the input data, e.g., w…
