Abstract Direct incorporation of nano reinforcement fillers has been a challenge for composite design because of strong aggregation. In this article, a stabilizer‐free method is developed to prepare new graphene/natural rubber latex (NRL) composite as the stabilizer ammonium was diffused completely in the final heat v…

Epitaxial strontium titanate (STO) films have been grown by atomic layer deposition (ALD) on Si(001) substrates with a thin STO buffer layer grown by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE). Four unit cells of STO grown by MBE serve as the surface template for ALD growth. The STO films grown by ALD are crystalline as-deposited w…

Hochauflösende Photolumineszenzspektroskopie mit Eu3+ als Struktursonde offenbarte einen universalen Gittersymmetriebruch in Lanthanoid-dotierten fehlgeordneten Kristallen. Die spektrale Gittersymmetrie für Eu3+ sinkt von Oh nach Cs (oder C2) in α-NaYF4 und von C3h nach Cs in β-NaYF4. Die Ergebnisse wurden durch Krist…

A series of alkali metal complexes supported by two bulky tetraphenols were synthesized and characterized. The reactions of α,α,α',α'-tetra(3,5-di-tert-butyl-2-hydroxyphenyl)-p-xylene(para-tetraphenol) with (n)BuLi, sodium, and KSi(NMe(2))(3) gave bimetallic complexes 1, 2, and 3, respectively.

Topological constraint theory holds the key to understanding the temperature and composition dependence of the dynamics of glass‐forming liquids. Unfortunately, existing analytical models currently do not apply to multicomponent industrial glasses. Moreover, models that are strictly empirical in nature fail to provide…

Abstract Highly stable graphene oxide (GO)‐based multilayered ultrathin films can be covalently immobilized on solid supports through a covalent‐based method. It is demonstrated that when (3‐aminopropyl) trimethoxysilane (APTMS), which works as a covalent cross‐linking agent, and GO nanosheets are assembled in an laye…

Kinetic energy barriers that have entirely different origins are the reasons for the impedance of the catalytic N2O/CO redox cycle mediated by both [YAlO2]+. and [Y2O2]+. clusters (see scheme). While oxidation with N2O is the bottleneck for [YAlO2]+., oxidation of [Y2O2]+. with N2O is possible, but reduction of [Y2O3]…

Exfoliation, i.e. individual separation of carbon sheets, is of great interest to produce single-layered graphene nanosheets. Chemical or thermal treatments are popular approaches to exfoliate graphite chunks. In general, these conventional methods are assisted with intercalation via covalent or non-covalent functiona…

Abstract Recent theoretical and experimental studies have proposed a two-step mechanism for crystal formation in which crystal nucleation is preceded by formation of disordered molecular assemblies. Here, we investigated whether similar intermediates might also form as crystals dissolve, effectively the reverse proces…
