A series of dithienylcyclopentenes containing axially chiral 1,1'-binaphthyl units were successfully synthesized by a Suzuki-Miyaura protocol. All these compounds exhibited photochemically reversible isomerization with thermal stability in both organic solvent and a liquid crystal (LC) host. When doping into an achira…

Abstract The application of amorphous chalcogenide alloys as data‐storage media relies on their ability to undergo an extremely fast (10–100 ns) crystallization once heated at sufficiently high temperature. However, the peculiar features that make these materials so attractive for memory devices still lack a comprehen…

The effect of LaFeO(3) addition to Bi(1/2)(Na(0.78)K(0.22))(1/2)TiO(3) ceramics on the phase stability and macroscopic functional properties was investigated. Similarly to other chemical modifiers known in the literature, LaFeO(3) addition suppresses an electric-field-induced long-range ferroelectric order, giving ris…

A novel cross-linkable, high molecular weight poly(diisoamyl itaconate- co -isoprene) (PDII) elastomer was prepared by emulsion polymerization based on itaconic acid, isoamyl alcohol, and isoprene. Both persulfate and redox initiators were used for the copolymerization of diisoamyl itaconate and isoprene at different…

Abstract Microstructural evolution as a function of substrate temperature (T S) for conducting ultrananocrystalline diamond (UNCD) films is systematically studied. Variation of the sp2 graphitic and sp3 diamond content with T S in the films is analysed from the Raman and near-edge x-ray absorption fine structure spect…

We have investigated exchange bias effects in bilayers composed of the antiferromagnetic o-YMnO(3) and ferromagnetic Co thin film by means of SQUID magnetometry, magnetoresistance, anisotropic magnetoresistance and the planar Hall effect. The magnetization and magneto-transport properties show pronounced asymmetries i…

The addition of dilute concentrations of bismuth (Bi) into GaAs to form GaBiAs alloys results in a large reduction of the band gap energy Eg accompanied by a significant increase of the spin-orbit-splitting energy (delta_SO), leading to an Eg < delta_SO regime for ~10% Bi composition which is technologically relevant…

A continuous tubular crystallizer system with an inner diameter of 2.0 mm and an overall length of 27 m was used to generate acetylsalicylic acid seeds in situ from ethanolic solution via cooling and ultrasound irradiation and to grow the crystals in the tubing with a controlled temperature trajectory. In order to min…

Abstract Hall–Petch (HP) relation and the superposition of different strengthening mechanisms in different aluminum alloys with grain sizes in the range of 50 nm–70 µm were analyzed. HP parameters as high as σ 0 ≈ 200 MPa and k HP ≈ 0.14 MPa m 1/2 were observed when the HP relation was fitted directly using the experi…

The idea of this Review is to introduce newly developed possibilities of advanced electron microscopy to the materials science community. Over the last decade, electron microscopy has evolved into a full analytical tool, able to provide atomic scale information on the position, nature, and even the valency atoms. This…

Myoglobin single-electron transistors were investigated using nanometer- gap platinum electrodes fabricated by electromigration at cryogenic temperatures. Apomyoglobin (myoglobin without heme group) was used as a reference. The results suggest single electron transport is mediated by resonant tunneling with the electr…

An active negative index metamaterial that derives its gain from an electron beam is introduced. The metamaterial consists of a stack of equidistant parallel metal plates perforated by a periodic array of holes shaped as complementary split-ring resonators. It is shown that this structure supports a negative-index tra…

Graphene in spintronics has so far primarily meant spin current leads of high performance because the intrinsic spin-orbit coupling of its pi-electrons is very weak. If a large spin-orbit coupling could be created by a proximity effect, the material could also form active elements of a spintronic device such as the Da…

We present a theoretical study of magnon-mediated heat transport in electrically insulating ferromagnetic wires containing a domain wall (DW). In the regime of validity of continuum micromagnetism, a DW is found to have no effect on the heat conductance. However, spin waves are found to be reflected by DWs with widths…

The spin-transfer torque motion of magnetic domain walls (DWs) in a CoB/Ni-based nanowire driven by a low current density of (1.12±0.8)×1011A m-2has been observed indirectly by magnetotransport measurements. A high DW velocity of 85±4 m/s at zero field was measured at the threshold current density. Upon increasing the…
