The pyrolysis of trifluoroacetic acid has been carried out in the temperature range 513–593 K both as the neat gas and also in the presence of nitrogen as diluent. Reactions were carried out in a sealed sodium borosilicate glass cell, and the progress of the reaction was monitored by in situ Fourier transform IR spect…

We comprehend both interconnect electromigration and Joule heating to study for the first time the self-consistent solutions for the maximum allowed interconnect peak current density j/sub peak/ as a function of wave shape. The maximum allowed temperature and j/sub peak/ solutions monotonically increase as the duty cy…

We develope a theoretical model of first order resonant Raman scattering in spherical nanocrystals which includes excitonic effects. Using a matrix diagonalization technique, the exciton wavefunctions and energy states as a function of quantun dot radius are calculated. The Fröhlich interaction between excitons and op…

Layered double hydroxides (LDHs) of Mg with trivalent cations such as Al, Cr and Fe show two mass loss steps on heating; the low-temperature (25–250 °C) loss is due to dehydration and the high-temperature (250–450 °C) loss is due to decomposition. Both steps are reversible and the oxide residues obtained after calcina…

Non‐centrosymmetric arrangement of the chromophores is a prerequisite for non‐vanishing macroscopic second‐order nonlinear optical responses. It is shown that an acentric packing of a highly polarizable merocyanine dye, with optimized orientation for frequency conversions, can be induced by hydrogen‐bond‐directed self…

Thin films of polypyrrole (PPY) were deposited in-situ from aqueous polymerizing solutions of pyrrole onto the surface of various substrates. A relationship between the structure of the dopant ion, conductivity, and optical absorption in the near IR was observed. The changes in conductivity and spectra are related to…
