In this work we report on the formation of pure polyaniline fibres by the electrospinning method. The fibres present diameters ranging from hundreds of nanometres to a few micrometres and have lengths of hundreds of micrometres. The fibres were collected on SiO 2 /Si and Si wafer pieces in the form of isolated fibres.…

Although a number of chalcogenostannates have been obtained by using [M(amine)m]n+ as the structure director, these materials with chiral metal complex ions are usually achiral because they are a racemic mix of chiral complex cations. A chiral selenidostannate, [Mn(tepa).Sn3Se7]n (1; tepa = tetraethylenepentamine), co…

Hexagonal Eu(3+):ZnO nanocrystals were synthesized by a modified solgel method. By means of the site-selective spectroscopy at 10 K, two kinds of luminescence sites of Eu(3+) are identified. One site exhibits a long lifetime of (5)D(0) and sharp emission and excitation peaks, which are ascribed to the inner lattice si…

Dielectric transmission gratings with a similar period as the wavelength of the incident light can exhibit strong polarization dependence. By optimizing the groove width of a negative first-order Littrow transmission grating it can be achieved that light is transmitted to the zeroth order for one polarization, regardl…

A simple method was developed for preparation of core colloids modified with Au (Ag) nanoparticles (NPs). The core colloids vary from polymer colloids (polystyrene spheres) to dielectric inorganic spheres (SiO 2 ) and semiconductors (ZnO) particles. The composite colloids were obtained by heating the solution of the c…

We report on the oxidative stability of thiol-passivated Au monolayer-protected clusters (MPCs) made via a modified Brust-Schiffrin method. A sequential oxidation of the anchored thiol groups to disulfide and sulfonate groups and the oxidation of Au atoms to Au3+ species is observed upon exposure of Au MPCs to air in…

The influence of annealing temperature on the hydrophilic property of WO 3 thin films deposited by thermal evaporation and sol–gel dip-coating methods was studied and compared for the first time. The thermal evaporated WO 3 thin films annealed at 400 °C showed a nearly super-hydrophilic property without UV and visible…

The x-ray structure factor for liquid SiO2 has been measured by laser heating of an aerodynamically levitated droplet. The main structural changes of the melt compared to the room temperature glass are associated with an increase in the size of the SiO4 tetrahedra, indicating a small reduction in the average Si-O-Si b…
