A new route to thermoreversible networks through gelling ferroelectric liquid crystals is presented. A reversible stabilization of one polar state can be achieved. On heating the gel, the network and therewith the polar orientation will be destroyed and on cooling a new polar orientation can be rebuilt. The Figure sho…

Many modem induction motor applications involve nonsinusoidal voltage supply. Under such operating conditions the motor performance can be seriously affected while the standard equivalent circuit is no more adequate for the motor analysis. In this paper, a modified equivalent circuit topology is introduced in order to…

The coupling reaction at the immiscible polymer−polymer interface formed between bilayer films composed of amorphous polyamide (aPA) and polysulfone (PSU) incorporating different functional groups was monitored by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The overall coupling reaction was consistent with pseudo-first-or…

We investigate the systematic error due to neglect of elastic scattering of photoelectrons in measurements of the thicknesses of thin films of SiO2 on Si by x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Calculations were made of substrate Si 2p photoelectron currents excited by Mg and Al Kα x rays for different SiO2 thickne…

Reported here are some temperature-dependent and excitation-dependent photoluminescence (PL) results from chlorine-doped ZnSe layers grown by molecular beam epitaxy. The PL spectrum is characterized by an overwhelming exciton recombination emission at 2.797 eV (10 K) near the band edge, and no other PL features are fo…

Deep ultraviolet optical fibers are fabricated using modified SiO/sub 2/ glasses containing 2000-ppm fluorine for the clad and 200 ppm for the core. The transmission at 193 nm is improved to more than 60%/m by optimizing the fiber drawing condition. The H/sub 2/-inpregnation into the fiber suppresses the degradation o…

The composition of (Ag 1- y Li y )(Nb 1- x Ta x )O 3 ceramics has been investigated by X-ray analysis and dielectric measurement. Li 1+ was substituted into the Ag 1+ lattice site of Ag(Nb, Ta)O 3 ceramics. The solubility limit of Li 2 O in Ag(Nb, Ta)O 3 was estimated to be in the range from 10 to 15 mol%. The crystal…

The symmetry operations for armchair, zigzag, and chiral boron nitride nanotubes (BN-NT's) are identified. It is found that each type belongs to a different family of nonsymmorphic rod groups. Armchair BN-NT's with even index n are found to be centrosymmetric. We determine the numbers of Raman- and infrared-active vib…

A description of the pressure dependence of the structural relaxation time has been derived from the Adam-Gibbs theory by writing the configurational entropy in terms of the excess heat capacity and the molar thermal expansion. This new equation was tested successfully on dielectric relaxation data for an epoxy compou…
