A meso-free subporphyrin was prepared and quantitatively converted into meso-brominated subporphyrin, which is an effective precursor for the facile installation of substituents at the meso position. The meso-(4-amino)phenylethynyl subporphyrins (see picture; N blue, O red, Br orange, F pale green, B dark green) and a…

Abstract A comparison was made between the use of graphene oxide (GO)/poly(ethylenedioxythiophene):poly(styrene sulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS) and reduced graphene oxide (rGO)/PEDOT:PSS as a hole extraction layer (HEL) in organic photovoltaic (OPV) cells. Hydrazine hydrate (HYD) and the thermal method were adopted to change t…

The poly(lactic acid) (PLA)/ramie fiber biocomposites were fabricated, which exhibited considerable reinforcement effect comparable to the glass fiber at the same loading. The attempts were made to understand the flow-induced morphology of ramie fibers and PLA crystals in the injection-molded PLA/ramie fiber biocompos…

Abstract RuO 2 /SnO 2 catalysts with 2, 5 and 10 % Ru loadings were prepared with calcined and uncalcined SnO 2 supports by the impregnation method. The catalysts were evaluated for CO and CH 4 oxidation and characterised by N 2 ‐BET, XRD, hydrogen temperature programmed reduction (H 2 ‐TPR), energy‐dispersive X‐ray s…

Microstructural features and magnetocaloric properties of Ni52Mn26Ga22 melt-spun ribbons were studied. Results show that there are four types of differently oriented variants of seven-layered modulated (7M) martensite at room temperature, being twin-related one another and clustered in colonies. Due to the coupled mag…

Room temperature x-ray diffraction, dc magnetization, and ac susceptibility measurements have been performed on a series of Mn rich Ni50Mn37-xCrxSb13 and Ni50+xMn37-xSb13 Heusler alloys. Depending on the value of x, the room temperature crystal structures of the samples are either L21 cubic or orthorhombic. It is a co…

We present an all-gas-phase approach for the fabrication of nanocrystal-based light-emitting devices. In a single reactor, silicon nanocrystals are synthesized, surface-functionalized, and deposited onto substrates precoated with a transparent electrode. Devices are completed by evaporation of a top metal electrode. T…

This paper reports a new synthesis of biobased polymers by using itaconic anhydride (IAn) and lactic acid (LA) as renewable starting materials. Poly(lactic acid) (PLA)-graft copolymers were synthesized via two approaches. First, the macromonomer approach utilized IAn for Sn-catalyzed synthesis of PLA-containing macrom…

We analyze how disorder affects the transition temperature ${T}_{c}$ of the ${s}^{+\ensuremath{-}}$ superconducting state in the iron pnictides. The conventional wisdom is that ${T}_{c}$ should rapidly decrease with increasing inter-band nonmagnetic impurity scattering, but we show that this behavior holds only in the…

It is shown that nonlinear elastic pre-stress of neo-Hookean hyperelastic materials can be used as a mechanism to generate finite cloaks and thus render objects near-invisible to incoming antiplane elastic waves. This approach appears to negate the requirement for special cloaking metamaterials with inhomogeneous and…

The effects of strain rate on the dynamic stress-strain behavior of cement mortar were investigated in split Hopkinson pressure bar (SHPB) tests; the resulting strain rates ranged from 20 to 280 s−1. A total of 39 specimens were subjected to static and dynamic axial compressive loadings. The results showed that cement…

The concept of "phonon glass electron crystal" (PGEC) was proposed in the mid-1990s to maximize the ZT value for thermoelectric materials, based on its combined advantages of low thermal conductivity as in a glass but high electricity as in a well-ordered crystal. Although a great amount of research in complex materia…

Our complementary magnetic and photoluminescence measurements reveal the correlation between the donor-acceptor complex and the ferromagnetic order in Cu-doped SnO2 thin films. Oxygen vacancies (VO) and Cu dopants form defect complexes of donor-acceptor pairs, and the associated spin-polarized impurity band leads to t…
