Abstract Complex cubic compounds Zn 6 Sc and Cd 6 M (M = Yb, Ca, Y, rare earth) are approximant crystals of Zn- and Cd-based quasicrystals. A low-temperature structural transition has been observed for these compounds universally and is considered to be due to orientational ordering of an atomic shell in the icosahedr…

Abstract A novel poly(aryleneethynylene), in which the main chain and the tetrathiafulvalene (TTF) side chains are coplanar, has been prepared and characterized. The polymer can self‐assemble in tetrahydrofuran (THF) and the π‐extended coplanar backbones adopt good face‐to‐face stacking, which is confirmed by X‐ray di…

We suggest, based on the principle of causality and for a material exhibiting adjacent absorptive and gain resonances, that there can be an intervening frequency where perfect imaging is in theory possible. At this frequency, both the dielectric constant and the permeability are negative, leading to a negative refract…

A straightforward and inexpensive solution-based method to coat cylindrical microcavities with silicon nanocrystals is described. By using this method, high-quality films of oxide-embedded silicon nanocrystals (Si-ncs) were formed on the inner wall of hollow glass fibers. The resulting films were uniform and crack-fre…

Abstract We report on a DC magnetic field sensor that utilizes magnetoelectric (ME) laminate composites. It consists of a ring‐dot piezoelectric transformer laminated to a magnetostrictive disc. When a constant voltage is applied to the ring section of the piezoelectric layer at resonance, a stress is induced in the d…

Multilayered metal-insulator-metal structures with BiFeO3 and Ba0.25Sr0.75TiO3 thin films were fabricated by chemical solution deposition to reduce the leakage current through the capacitor stack. The Ba0.25Sr0.75TiO3 layer does not influence the crystalline structure of BiFeO3 and was recognized as rhombohedral by Ra…

The conductor and ground shield layers of shielded distribution cable provide a smooth interface between conductors and insulation. Their semiconducting nature causes attenuation of high frequencies which propagate down the cable, as the high frequency displacement current flows through the shield layers and, in the c…
