Hydrogen-bonding effects on film structures and photophysical, photoelectrochemical, and photovoltaic properties have been examined in mixed films of porphyrin and fullerene composites with and without hydrogen bonding on nanostructured TiO 2 electrodes. The nanostructured TiO 2 electrodes modified with the mixed film…

DFT calculations have underscored the importance of the tripodal supporting ligand in tuning the spin-state energetics of pseudotetrahedral transition metal imido complexes. In particular, we have focused on Co(III)-imido complexes, where our best estimate (OLYP) of the singlet-triplet splitting varies from 0.75 eV fo…

Sulfathiazole is a highly polymorphic model system exhibiting at least five polymorphic forms: I, II, III, IV, and V. Polymorph stability is known to be susceptible to solvent environment, and it is established that 1-propanol stabilizes the most metastable form I. This study examines the effect of a range of alcohols…

This paper presents a three-dimensional constitutive model for shape-memory alloys that generalizes the one-dimensional model presented earlier (Sadjadpour and Bhattacharya 2007 Smart Mater. Struct. 16 S51–62). These models build on recent micromechanical studies of the underlying microstructure of shape-memory alloys…

Pyrophyllite is widely used both as a gasket material and as a pressure-transmitting medium, especially for a large-volume press. Its pressure-transmitting efficiency mainly depends on the following factors: geometry of anvil and pyrophyllite block, chemical composition, density and strength. For a long time, most stu…

Abstract The degradation and flame retardancy of polypropylene/organically modified montmorillonite (PP/OMMT) nanocomposite were studied by means of gas chromatography‐mass spectrometry and cone calorimeter. The catalysis of hydrogen proton containing montmorillonite (H‐MMT) derived from thermal decomposition of (alky…

By means of ab initio quantum chemical techniques, the interaction of molecular hydrogen with the first member of the IRMOF family is explored. Many different models and computational schemes, ranging from second-order Møller−Plesset perturbation theory (MP2) to density functional theory (DFT), have been applied in or…

A quantum chemical computational scheme for the calculation of isomer shift in Mossbauer spectroscopy is suggested. Within the described scheme, the isomer shift is treated as a derivative of the total electronic energy with respect to the radius of a finite nucleus. The explicit use of a finite nucleus model in the c…

We use time-resolved measurements of the evolution of surface and buried layer temperatures to quantify the contribution of ballistic phonons to heat transport on nanometer length scales. A laser pulse heats a $100\phantom{\rule{0.3em}{0ex}}\mathrm{nm}$ thick Al film which cools by conduction into a GaAs substrate. Th…

Single-crystalline gold nanorods synthesized by the Ag(I)-mediated seeded-growth method (see: El-Sayed, M. A.; Nikoobakht, B. Chem. Mater. 2003, 15, 1957) were used as seeds for the preferential overgrowth of gold on particular crystallographic facets by systematic variation of the conditions during overgrowth. The re…

A strategy for improving mobility of non-layered nanoparticles in a polymer matrix is proposed by reducing the interparticulate attraction and enhancing filler/matrix interaction in the rubbery state of the matrix, which induces additional energy dissipation mechanisms and increases toughness of the composites.
