A time-resolved SANS method was developed for the determination of unimer exchange kinetics of polymeric micelles under equilibrium conditions. Measurements were performed on the system PEP-PEO/DMF exploiting the large difference in scattering length density of protonated and deuterated species. In contrast to theoret…

One-dimensional (1D) nanostructures have numerous potential applications in science and engineering. Nanocomposites made of nanowires, such as carbon nanotubes, are likely to decrease material’s density and increase its strength,[1] which are of critical importance to space technology. To investigate the uniqueness of…

Ab-initio density-functional molecular dynamics simulations and full relaxation of all atomic positions are used to reconcile the crystal structures with IR spectra of dickite and kaolinite. The relaxation of atomic positions preserves the accepted space group symmetries. A pair of two hydroxyl groups oriented paralle…

We use molecular dynamics computer simulations to study the relaxation dynamics of a viscous melt of silica. The coherent and incoherent intermediate scattering functions, F(q,t) and F(s)(q,t), show a crossover from a nearly exponential decay at high temperatures to a two-step relaxation at low temperatures. Close to…

Experimental observations from (sub-)micrometer spheres of silica are compared with the results from conventional MCM-41 material. SEM images give proof of a spherical morphology (see Figure), which is also confirmed by TEM. XRD patterns confirm that on a local scale the pores are hexagonally packed whilst on a larger…

Transparent Pb(Zr, Ti)O 3 (PZT) thin films with over 1 µm thickness were deposited by the aerosol deposition method (ADM). The transparency of the PZT thin film deposited at room temperature strongly depended on the kinds of carrier gases and the particle flow velocity. The color of the film became black if He gas was…

Summary A new measuring technique based on a capillary rise method has been developed to quantify the wettability of more or less decomposed peats (the main materials used as horticultural growing media) in relation to their water content. A preliminary study of their physico‐chemical and biochemical characteristics e…

Highly syndiotactic “living” poly(propylene)s were synthesized at 25°C using a bis[N-(3-tert-butylsalicylidene)-2,3,4,5,6-pentafluoroanilinato]titanium (IV) dichloride/MAO catalyst system, and microstructures of the polymer were analyzed by means of 13C NMR spectroscopy. The syndiotactic poly(propylene) contains isobu…

The effect of the Ba/Ti ratio on microstructure, dielectric/ferroelectric properties, and domain width was studied using optical microscopy, ɛ( T ) curves, D – E hysteresis, and transmission electron microscopy. Although Ti‐excess samples showed abnormal grain growth and a decrease of room‐temperature permittivity due…

Piezoelectric properties of potassium niobate (KNbO 3 ) single crystals were investigated as a function of crystallographic orientations, i.e., [110] c of polar direction and [001] c of nonpolar direction. Prior to the piezoelectric measurements, the optimum conditions for a conventional poling method were investigate…

The microstructural, dielectric and piezoelectric properties of the (Na 0.5 Bi 0.5 )TiO 3 –NaNbO 3 and (K 0.5 Bi 0.5 )TiO 3 –KNbO 3 systems were studied in order to find new lead-free piezoelectric ceramic materials. In the (1- X ) (K 0.5 Bi 0.5 )TiO 3 –( X ) KNbO 3 system, it was confirmed from the measurements of th…

A phenomenological theory of the martensitic fcc-hcp transformation is proposed and applied to the illustrative example of cobalt. The fcc and hcp structures are shown to result from different ordering mechanisms from a disordered polytypic structure and to be intrinsically faulted. The three, fcc, hcp, and disordered…

We discuss the possibility of realizing quantum computation on the basis of a cluster of single interacting nuclear spins in solids. This idea seems to be feasible because of the combination of two techniques—Single Molecule Spectroscopy and Optically Detected Electron Nuclear Double Resonance. Compared to the well-kn…

Raman spectra of Bi 4- x La x Ti 3 O 12 have been investigated. For an increasing degree of La doping, we find a substantial hardening of the vibration involving Bi atoms at the perovskite A site, whereas the Bi mode at the Bi 2 O 2 layer is negligibly changed. From a comparison with a simple mass consideration, we id…
