Orthorhombic HoMnO3 films with well-aligned crystallographic orientations were deposited on LaAlO3(110) single crystal substrates by using pulsed laser deposition. The nearly perfect b-axis-oriented films provide the opportunity of investigating the orientation-dependent physical property of this material. The tempera…

Abstract A new type of polymeric hybrid coating is created by layer‐by‐layer deposition of polyelectrolyte multilayers (PEM) onto nano‐patterned polymer brushes (NPB). The PEM is a hydrogen‐bonded multilayer consisting of poly(acrylic acid) and poly(acrylamide) and the NPB is derived from a surface reactive rod‐coil b…

A method is proposed to modulate phase using variant square holes in a metallic film based on a fundamental mode approximation model. Phase retardation through square holes in a subwavelength scale in a thin metal film has been analyzed and calculated. Based on the model, a structured lens with a numerical aperture of…

Monitoring the kinetics of hydrolysis and condensation of γ-glycidoxypropyltrimethoxy-silane (γ-GPS) was carried out by NMR spectroscopy (29Si–, 13C–, and 1H–). The course of these reactions was followed in 2 wt% aqueous dilution conditions (26% D2O/74% H2O), pH 5.4, and temperatures of 26, 50, and 70°C. At ambient te…

We herein report an anomalous thermal hysteresis in dielectric permittivity in CaCu3Ti4O12. The anomalous behavior was well explained in terms of the low-temperature Maxwell–Wagner relaxation induced by frozen carriers. A multirelaxation mechanism, i.e., the coupling of the dipole relaxation to the frozen carrier-indu…

The stress evolution in nanocrystalline diamond (NCD) films deposited at different temperatures (from 800to400°C) was investigated. Results showed that the intrinsic stress gradually changed from tensile to compressive with decreasing deposition temperature. Most importantly, the intrinsic stress can be tailored to ze…

We studied photoluminescence (PL) and energy transfer dynamics in CdSe nanocrystal (NC) assembled monolayers on Au surfaces. The close-packed CdSe NC monolayers were fabricated using the Langmuir–Blodgett method on spin-coated inert polymer films on rough-surface Au substrates. The PL intensity and PL decay time were…

The fabrication of nanoporous sputtered CaCu3Ti4O12 thin films with high gas sensitivity is reported in this work. The porous microstructure and the nanocrystalline nature of the material promoted the diffusion of the atmosphere into the film, shortening the response time of the samples. Behaving as p-type semiconduct…

Abstract Raman spectroscopy combined with infrared spectroscopy has been used to study the minerals, nullaginite and zaratite. Raman bands are observed at 3650, 3556 and 3309 cm −1 for nullaginite and 3609, 3516 and 3336 cm −1 for zaratite. By using a Libowitzky‐type empirical function, estimation of the hydrogen‐bond…

2,6-Di-O-methylcellulose was prepared from natural and synthetic celluloses. Natural cellulose was converted to 2,6-di-O-thexyldimethylsilylcellulose, then to 3-mono-O-allyl-2,6-di-O-methylcellulose, and finally into 2,6-di-O-methylcellulose. Alternatively, 2,6 di-O-methylcellulose was synthesized from the synthetic c…
