High-quality biaxial single crystals of chalcone derivatives were grown by solution growth technique. Their molecular structures were designed to possess large second-order nonlinearities by choosing proper donor/acceptor groups while retaining a high transparency in the visible and infrared spectral regions. The seco…

Abstract Mesoporous polymer particles (MPPs) have been synthesized by using the spherical microparticles of siliceous mesocellular foam (MCF) as a hard template. The MPPs possessed a robust structure with ultralarge mesopores, and a clean and inert surface. The surface properties of the MPPs could be tailored for vari…

Plasma-enhanced chemical vapor-deposited SiO2 and SiNx were used to passivate ZnO heterojunction light emitting diodes (LEDs). Postdielectric deposition annealing was critical in obtaining good LED electrical and optical characteristics. No diode characteristics or light emission was observed unless the structures wer…

We report the breakdown behavior of a patterned Ge2Sb2Te5 multiline structure during the voltage-driven electric stress biasing. Scanning Auger microscope analysis shows that the breakdown process accompanies with a phase separation of Ge2Sb2Te5 into an Sb, Te-rich phase and a Ge-rich phase. The phase separation is ex…

The loadability of a pulp refiner was studied using refiner data such as gap movement, total power, no-load power, and net refining power. Two different types of pulp and three different types of refiner filling were used in the study. The floc formation and floc size of each pulp was studied in a flow channel simulat…

A simple and unified model is developed to predict the effective phonon mean free path (MFP) of semiconductor nanostructures based on Casimir’s work [Physica (Amsterdam) 5, 495 (1938)]. The effective MFP of nanofilms is found to be larger than that of nanowires, where the Casimir limit for nanofilms equals twice its t…

We present the structural and physical properties of epitaxial Bi2CoMnO6 films grown on SrTiO3 and LaAlO3. They display magnetic hysteresis loop with 170 Oe coercivity and a 3.1μB∕f.u. saturation magnetization which indicates a disordered Co∕Mn state. Nevertheless, these films display an unusually large ferromagnetic…
