Full‐dense fine‐grained bulk Pb(Zr,Ti)O 3 (PZT) ceramics with a thicknesses of 300 μm were successfully obtained by aerosol deposition (AD) employing the starting powder subjected to an adequate pretreatment. It was found that formation of internal pores during the postdeposition firing treatment takes place in two di…

We employed a grating profile measurement method, which is based on the combination of multiwavelength scatterometry and artificial neural network, to determine the critical dimensions of submicrometer-period photoresist gratings with wavy sidewall profiles. Six laser beams in three wavelengths and two orthogonal pola…

This article highlights the aggregation behaviour of potential low molecular weight hydrogelators on attracting surfaces. Our goal was the development of a method, which enables the finding of new hydrogelators that are not easily recognizable as such because they only form instable or no hydrogels in aqueous solution…

Successful structural reinforcement of polymer matrices by carbon nanotube has been broadly applied where significant improvement of mechanical properties was achieved at a low carbon nanotube loading rate. The notion of the mechanical properties of aligned composites are better than random ones has been proofed and d…

The magnetic phase diagram for [Ru 2 (O 2 CMe) 4 ] 3 [Cr(CN) 6 ] was determined from temperature dependent isothermal magnetization studies below its 33-K T c . Below ∼25 K, the change in slope of the M ( H ) for ∼1100 ± 400 Oe increases with increasing temperature, as does the initial slope at lower applied field, wh…

An analytic formula is derived for the sensitivity of collimators achieving transverse collimation with a slit and axial collimation with a slat assembly whose septa may be parallel or focus on a line. The formula predicts sin(3) phi dependence on the incidence angle and, in the particular case of parallel slats, 1/h…

We report an unusual electroconvection in the nematic phase of a bent-core liquid crystal. In a voltage-frequency diagram, two frequency regions exhibiting prewavy stripe patterns were found, as reported by Wiant We found that these stripes never show extinction dark when cells were rotated under crossed polarizers.

All messenger-RNA (mRNA) molecules in eukaryotic cells have a polyadenylic acid [poly(rA)] tail at the 3'-end and human poly(rA) polymerase (PAP) has been considered as a tumor-specific target. A ligand that is capable of recognizing and binding to the poly(rA) tail of mRNA might interfere with the full processing of…

A simple galvanic reduction for direct growth of Au nanowires on silicon wafers is developed. The nanowires were prepared by reacting HAuCl4aq with Sns in the presence of CTACaq (cetyltrimethylammonium chloride) and NaNO3aq, which were important to the product morphology development. The nanowire diameter was 50-100 n…
