Abstract Apart from a few examples, β‐(poly)fluorinated and β‐(poly)perfluoroalkylated porphyrins were practically unknownuntil recently. In particular, β‐octafluoro‐ meso ‐tetraarylporphyrins remained elusive ligands owing to the lack of any convenient access. The aim of this microreview is to highlight recent progre…

We examine a simple hard disk fluid with no long range interactions on the two-dimensional space of constant negative Gaussian curvature, the hyperbolic plane. This geometry provides a natural mechanism by which global crystalline order is frustrated, allowing us to construct a tractable model of disordered monodisper…

A high optical efficiency and wide-view transflective liquid crystal display based on fringe-field switching structure is proposed. The transmissive part has a homogenous liquid crystal (LC) alignment and is driven by a fringe electric field, which exhibits excellent electro-optic characteristics. The reflective part…

Interaction of static electric fields with a nematic is complicated because of the presence of charges, which originates from aligning layers or from molecular breakdown, affecting the electro-optic response of a liquid crystal cell. We analyze the aligning layers effect on the electro-optical response and develop a m…

Relaxation of strain by a partial dislocation and stacking fault in a strained Si film was characterized using geometric phase analysis of high-resolution transmission electron microscope (HRTEM) images. Movement of a 60° glide dislocation from the free surface to the film-substrate interface created a complex state o…

Theoretically, there are several methods that can be used to remove CO from H2-rich gases. As for the applications of PEM-FCs to vehicles, boats and yachts and residential co-generators, however, the feasible choice may be only between the preferential CO oxidation (CO-PROX) and the selective CO methanation (CO-SMET)…

RE Mn O 3 (RE=Dy,Gd,Sm) films were deposited on (110) surfaces of single crystalline hexagonal (h-)YMnO3. These films adopted the metastable multiferroic h-REMnO3 structure instead of the stable perovskite structure. Sharp (hh0) diffraction peaks with narrow rocking curves were found for all films. The peak widths inc…

We employ density-functional theory within the generalized-gradient approximation to study the structural and electronic properties of Cu-doped GaN. We find that spin polarization on the Cu atoms in the GaN lattice is very small, leading to rather weak ferromagnetic behavior. We therefore suggest that Cu-doped GaN is…
