Abstract Summary: Core‐sheath nanofibers with conductive polyaniline as the core and an insulating polymer as the sheath were prepared by electrospinning of blends of polyaniline with either polystyrene or polycarbonate. These unique core‐sheath structures offer potential in a number of applications including nanoelec…
Hollow nickel spheres of 50–60 nm diameter have different properties from bulk nickel. For example, the authors demonstrate that the spheres exhibit a long-range magnetic-ordering transition at 575 K and enhanced coercivity. The facile synthesis of such spheres by mild hydrothermal redox reaction of nickel dodecylsulf…
CuBiP(2)Se(6), AgBiP(2)Se(6), and AgBiP(2)S(6) were prepared from the corresponding elements. CuBiP(2)Se(6) and AgBiP(2)Se(6) crystallize in the space group R with a = 6.5532(16) A and c = 39.762(13) A for CuBiP(2)Se(6) and a = 6.6524(13) A and c = 39.615(15) A for AgBiP(2)Se(6). AgBiP(2)S(6) crystallizes in the tricl…
Measurements of coherent electron spin dynamics in ${\mathrm{Ga}}_{1\ensuremath{-}x}{\mathrm{Mn}}_{x}\mathrm{As}/{\mathrm{Al}}_{0.4}{\mathrm{Ga}}_{0.6}\mathrm{As}$ quantum wells with $0.0006%<x<0.03%$ show an antiferromagnetic (negative) exchange between $s$-like conduction band electrons and electrons localized…
Prussian blue nanotubes were fabricated by using a sequential deposition technique inside the 60-nm well-ordered pores of anodic alumina. By varying the deposition parameters and the dimensions of the template, we could tailor the length and the outer as well as the inner diameter of the tubes. The nanotubes were char…
Head-to-tail self-assembly of two imidazolylphthalocyaninatozinc(II) or -magnesium(II) units through mutual imidazole–metal interactions leads to strongly fluorescent dimers (see picture, ΦF=fluorescence quantum yield) that exhibit high association constants estimated at over 1011 M−1 in toluene.
We report here a new approach to the discovery of fluorescent chemosensors in which a new signaling mechanism allows a core fluorophore to be used in a combinatorial search for new binding events, thus reversing the reigning discovery paradigm.
Abstract Conjugated polymers have important technological applications, including solar cells and light emitting displays. They are also active components in many important biological processes. In recent years there have been significant advances in our understanding of these systems, owing to both improved experimen…
Bioresorbable polymeric support devices (stents) are being developed in order to improve the biocompatibility and drug reservoir capacity of metal stents, as well as to offer a temporary alternative to permanent metallic stents. These temporary devices may be utilized for coronary, urethral, tracheal, and other applic…
Incipient ferroelectric KTaO3 with off-center Li impurity of the critical concentration of 2.8 mol% was investigated in order to clarify the dipole glass state under electric field. Using optical second-harmonic generation (SHG) microscope, we observed a marked history dependence of SHG intensity through zero-field co…
The mechanism for the transition of a Bose gas to the superfluid state via thermal fluctuations is considered. It is shown that in the process of external cooling some critical fluctuations (instantons) are formed above the critical temperature. The probability of the instanton formation is calculated in the three and…
A solvable quantum $LC$ circuit with charge discreteness is studied. Two discrete spectral branches are obtained: (i) the normal branch corresponding to a charged capacitor with integer effective charge $k=q_{e}n$ ($q_{e}$ elementary charge, $n$ integer) and (ii) the anomalous branch where the energy is related to non…
We have studied conductance characteristics of mechanically fabricated Ni nanoconstrictions under controlling electrochemical potential and pH of the electrolyte. Conductance histogram showed clear feature peaked at 1-1.5 $G_{0}$ (=$2e^{2}/h$) when the potential of the constriction was kept at more negative potential…
Magnetic relaxation in large spin molecular paramagnets is often found to behave as the square root of time at short times t. This behaviour was explained by Prokofiev & Stamp as arising from dipole interactions between molecular spins. However, as observed by Miyashita & Saito, the same behaviour can arise from a dif…
Rational design of self-assembly of proteins, which plays pivotal roles in biology, is an important subject for biotechnology and also bottom-up nanotechnology. This paper has proposed a novel strategy for construction of artificial peptide-nanospheres by self-assembly. Mimicking formation of spherical viruses and cla…
We study a model of interacting particles in two dimensions to address the relation between crystal-crystal transformations and pressure-induced amorphization. On increasing pressure at very low temperature, our model undergoes a martensitic crystal-crystal transformation. The characteristics of the resulting polycrys…
We study the electronic and magnetic properties of the interfaces between the half-metallic Heusler alloy NiMnSb and the binary semiconductors InP and GaAs using two different state-of-the-art full-potential ab initio electronic structure methods. Although in the case of most $\mathrm{Ni}\mathrm{Mn}\mathrm{Sb}∕\mathrm…
First-principles computations of Raman intensities were performed for the perovskite-family compound $\mathrm{Ca}{\mathrm{Al}}_{1∕2}{\mathrm{Nb}}_{1∕2}{\mathrm{O}}_{3}$ (CAN). This compound features NaCl-type ordering of Al and Nb superimposed onto the ${b}^{\ensuremath{-}}{b}^{\ensuremath{-}}{c}^{+}$ octahedral tilti…
We consider the effect of local flattening on the Fermi surface (FS) of a metal upon geometric oscillations of the velocity and attenuation of ultrasonic waves in the neighborhood of the acoustic cyclotron resonance. It is shown that such peculiarities of the local geometry of the FS can lead to a significant enhancem…
