Manganese–zinc ferrites were obtained through combined coprecipitation and sol–gel autocombustion methods. The effect of the precursor used in the sol–gel autocombustion synthesis on the ferrite’s structural and catalytic properties was examined. The ferrite powders were characterized by XRD, BET, SEM, TG/DTA, and TPR…

We study the influence of quantum fluctuations on the electron self-energy in the normal state of iron pnictide superconductors using a five-orbital tight-binding model with generalized Hubbard on-site interactions. Within a one-loop treatment, we find that an overdamped collective mode develops at low frequency in ch…

The optical response of metallic nanoparticle arrays is dominated by localized surface plasmon excitations and is the sum of individual particle contributions modified by interparticle coupling that depends on specific array geometry. We demonstrate a so far unexplored distinct oscillatory behavior of the plasmon peak…

The gold nanocrystals supported over CeO 2 -containing mixed-metal oxides were synthesized by a reduction–deposition approach followed by calcination. The zerovalent Au 0 was obtained from the reduction of Au 3+ ion by the hydrolysis of sucrose in an aqueous solution. The thermal post-treatment led to supported gold c…

Here we demonstrate, for the first time, the fabrication of Au nanostructures on polyaniline (PANI) membrane surfaces for surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) applications, through a direct chemical reduction by PANI. Introduction of acids into the HAuCl(4) solution leads to homogeneous Au structures on the PANI…

Long-range electron tunneling is a fundamental process that is critical to the performance of oxide materials in microelectronics, energy generation, and photocatalysis, but extremely challenging to probe experimentally. Here we devise a computational approach that allows one to probe the mechanism and calculate the r…

Glasses in the ternary system (70 - x)NaPO(3)-30WO(3)-xBi(2)O(3), with x = 0-30 mol %, were prepared by the conventional melt-quenching technique. X-ray diffraction (XRD) measurements were performed to confirm the noncrystalline nature of the samples. The influence of the Bi(2)O(3) on the thermal, structural, and opti…

Acrylated epoxidized soybean oil was chemically grafted with difunctional flame retardants carrying phosphorus, double bonds or biphenyl groups, and then copolymerized with styrene to produce bio-foams with high mechanical properties and intrinsic flame resistance. Owing to the introduction of rigid comonomer, phospho…

A series of mono-functionalized 3-pyrrolyl boron-dipyrromethenes containing functional groups such as bromo, formyl, cyano, nitro and trimethylsilylacetylene groups at the α-position of the uncoordinated pyrrole group were synthesized. Further to show the use of functionalized 3-pyrrolyl BODIPY, we treated α-bromo BOD…

We investigated the relationship between the elastic modulus, G and the reaction probability, p for polymer networks. First, we pointed out that the elastic modulus is expressed by G = {(fp∕2 - 1) + O((p - 1)(2))} Nk(B)T∕V (percolated network law), which does not depend on the local topology of the network structure o…

Supramolecular columnar assemblies are known to form intrinsic macrodipoles, which play an important role in intercolumnar interactions and govern the self-assembly on the mesoscale. A prominent class that provides this feature are trisamide derivatives, namely, 1,3,5-benzenetrisamides and 1,3,5-cyclohexanetrisamides.…
