We report the experimental observation of the novel phenomenon of the resistivity decrease in porous PbTe layers during the pore formation process. Investigations were performed on the n-PbTe films with 2.3-μm thickness, which were near the point of the conductivity-type inversion at room temperature. Anodic electroch…

Identification of proteins involved in mollusk biomineralization by proteomics approach is gaining importance. These proteins are often characterized by low-complexity regions (LCRs) made of repeating motifs that are constituted by few amino acids (e.g. IGG, DD, KK, and GGG). In this work, we have analyzed the fragmen…

The effect of minor additions of Gd and Sm on the glass-forming ability (GFA) of Cu-Zr-Al alloys is investigated here. The rationale for these additions is the fact that the atomic size distribution can increase GFA by changing the topology of the alloy as a function of cluster stability, which is tied to the electron…

The Co3O4 nanorod bundles are synthesized by a hydrothermal method. The samples are characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), electron diffraction (ED), X-ray powder diffractometer (XRD), and nitrogen adsorption. It is important that the as-obtained Co3O4 nanorod bund…

We present an anomalous electro-optic effect in polar liquid films: liquids, usually considered to be isotropic, possess the linear electro-optic effect that occurs only in materials lacking inversion symmetry. Due to the observed large effect in the low-frequency range and slow response speed, this strange effect was…
