We describe here a polymer nanosheet assembly that serves as a molecular photoswitching and optical exclusive OR (EXOR) logic gate. Separate polymer nanosheets (monolayers) containing phenanthrene, anthracene, and dinitrobenzene chromophore were prepared by the Langmuir-Blodgett technique (LB films). A bilayer-couple,…
Nanocrystalline ZnO particles have been prepared with different methods using zinc cyclohexanebutyrate as precursor in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) medium via alkaline hydrolysis. A series of preparations were carried out in the presence of layered silicates (kaolinite and montmorillonite). It was revealed by different m…
A preform technique is used to prepare a step-index (SI) polymer optical fiber (POF) doped with Eu(DBM)3Phen. The gain (5.7 dB) at 613 nm of the doped SI POF with Eu3+ content of 4000 in 10(6) wt., 0.4-mm core diameter, and 30-cm fiber length is observed at ambient temperature by end pumping with a YAG at 355 nm. The…
Abstract We present an approach to stable n‐type doping of organic matrices using organic dopants. In order to circumvent stability limitations inherent to strong organic donors, we produce the donor from a stable precursor compound in situ. As an example, the cationic dye pyronin B chloride is studied as a dopant in…
The oxidation behavior of a polymer‐derived amorphous silicon carbonitride (SiCN) ceramic was studied at temperature range of 900°–1200°C using fully dense samples, which were obtained using a novel pressure‐assisted pyrolysis technique. The oxidation kinetics was investigated by measuring the thickness of oxide layer…
The parameters set of the Jiles-Atherton hysteresis model is identified by using a real coded genetic algorithm. The parameters identification is performed by minimizing the mean squared error between experimental and simulated magnetic field curves. The procedure is validated by comparing experimental and simulated r…
The synthesis of three novel nonlinear optical (NLO) chromophores with threefold symmetry, namely 1,3,5-tris(4-N,N-diethylaminophenyl)-2,4,6-tris(4-nitrophenyl)benzene (3), 1,3,5-tris(4-N,N-dihexylaminophenylbutadiynyl)-2,4,6-tris(4-nitrophenyl)benzene (13) and 1,3,5-tris(4-N,N-dihexylaminophenylethynyl)-2,4,6-tris(4-…
Evidence is presented to show that carbon nanotubes can become magnetized when they are in contact with magnetic material. Spin-polarized charge transfer at the interface between a flat ferromagnetic metal substrate and a multiwalled carbon nanotube leads to a spin transfer of about 0.1 μ B per contact carbon atom. Th…
Abstract An overview is provided of the basic features of cellulose acetate of various degree of substitution in the solid and liquid crystalline state as well as in solution. These features represent a necessity for an understanding of the properties of these cellulose derivatives and further for mixed esters, which…
Three representative oxides of the La(2/3)(-)(x)()Li(3)(x)()TiO(3) system have been studied by selected area electron diffraction (SAED), high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), and powder synchrotron X-ray diffraction. HRTEM showed that the materials have a complex microstructure. The SAED and HRTEM…
We study radiation-damage events in MgO on experimental time scales by augmenting molecular dynamics cascade simulations with temperature accelerated dynamics, molecular statics, and density functional theory. At 400 eV, vacancies and mono- and di-interstitials form, but often annihilate within milliseconds. At 2 and…
The synthesis, cytotoxicity, and behavior in cell culture of a new set of first- (G1) and second-generation (G2) dendrimers is reported. The surface functionality of these dendrimers has been varied to see whether structure/toxicity relations can be observed. The outermost functional groups are amines that are decorat…
Abstract The chemical structure of cellulose acetates (CA), different synthesis paths, analysis strategies and the correlation of these structural features with properties, especially with the solubility are summarized. Alternative paths, in particular homogeneous procedures, for the synthesis of CA are described focu…
Institut français du pétroleThe diffuse reflection infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy (DRIFTS) technique, less practiced than the transmission mode because of its limitations, is extremely useful, indeed indispensable, for non-transparent materials and/or for in situ measurements at elevated temperature. The auth…
Gem-sized single crystals of diamond have been produced by very high growth rate microwave plasma chemical vapor deposition (CVD) and found to exhibit remarkable mechanical properties. The as-grown material has extremely high fracture toughness, and treatment by high-pressure/high-temperature annealing produces crysta…
The Rietveld method allows a precise quantitative phase analysis of building materials. Thanks to the development of stable-functioning software and the use of high-performance detectors, a quantitative phase analysis by X-ray, including sample preparation, and measurement and evaluation, can be performed in fewer tha…
One of the major failings in vascular tissue engineering is the limited capacity of autologous differentiated cells to reconstitute tissues. A logical solution is to use multipotent progenitor cells, which in vascular treatments have been underutilized. Although biochemical stimulation has been explored to differentia…
Organic (poly)phosphonates are additives in water treatment that find broad use as mineral scale and corrosion inhibitors for a plethora of industrial applications. The phenomenon of precipitation of scale inhibitors has been studied intensively. This study reports the synthesis, characterization, and crystal structur…
In this paper we describe the capabilities for texture measurements of the new neutron time-of-flight diffractometer HIPPO at the Los Alamos Neutron Science Center. The orientation distribution function (ODF) is extracted from multiple neutron time-of-flight histograms using the full-pattern analysis first described b…
In order to examine estimation methods of iron losses of rotating machines, a verification model of the surface permanent magnet (SPM) motor is manufactured and measured by the investigation committee of the IEE of Japan. The effect of stress due to the insertion to aluminum case on magnetic characteristics can also b…
