We report on a photolabile protecting (caging) group that is new for carboxylic acids. Unlike previously used caging groups for carboxylic acids, it can be photolyzed rapidly and efficiently in the visible wavelength region. The caging group 7-N,N-diethyl aminocoumarin (DECM) was used to cage the gamma-carboxyl group…
We find strong evidence for a metal-insulator (MI) transition in macroscopic single wall carbon nanotube (SWNT) conductors. This is revealed by systematic measurements of resistivity and transverse magnetoresistance (MR) in the ranges 1.9--300 K and 0--9 Tesla, as a function of $p$-type redox doping. Strongly ${\mathr…
Polar behavior was found in Sr1−xMnxTiO3(x=0.005–0.02) ceramic system. Radio-frequency dielectric measurements showed a diffuse maximum at 25–65 K shifting to higher temperatures with increasing measurement frequency and amount of Mn. The observation of hysteretic behavior in the P versus E curves shows the existence…
Single-crystalline ZnO microtubes were synthesized by a simple metal-vapor deposition method. The ZnO microtubes, which had outer diameters in the range of 0.3−2 μm and wall thickness in the range of 100−500 nm, indicated a faceted hexagonal shape. In addition, it was found that there were many incomplete ZnO microtub…
During the past centuries, industrial processes and energy conversion plants have shown no or little care for environmental quality. The result is a huge accumulation of pollution and hazardous by-products, left as a heritage for the present and future generations. Recuperation of by-products or thermal energy is not…
A multinuclear NMR study of the interaction between phenylboronic acid (PBA) and sialic acid (Neu5 Ac) has been performed. The latter compound is known to be overexpressed on the cell surface of tumor cells. The results of this investigation suggest that the binding of PBA to sialic acid is pH dependent. 17O NMR exper…
A near ballistic carbon nanotube field-effect transistor (CNTFET) that integrates an ultra-short channel, low-barrier metal contacts, and a thin high-K gate insulator is modeled and analyzed using self-consistent quantum simulations. Numerical simulations, which solve a quantum transport equation self-consistently wit…
We briefly review the status of the application of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) for future interconnects and present results concerning possible integration schemes. Growth of single nanotubes at lithographically defined locations (vias) has been achieved which is a prerequisite for the use of CNTs as future interconnects.…
A series of heterodinuclear Cu(II)Ln(III) and Ni(II)Ln(III) complexes, [M(II)L(1)Ln(III)(NO(3))(3)] (M = Cu or Ni; Ln = Ce-Yb), with the hexadentate Schiff base compartmental ligand N,N'-ethylenebis(3-ethoxysalicylaldiimine) (H(2)L(1)) have been synthesized and characterized. The X-ray crystal structure determinations…
Single-phase RyMxCo4−xSb12(x=0–3.0,y=0–0.7) compounds filled by Ce, Ba, and Y, and substituted by Fe and Ni are synthesized by using the solid-state reaction method and melting reaction method. The structure and the thermoelectric properties of RyMxCo4−xSb12 are investigated systematically. The thermal parameter (B) o…
Abstract Summary: In this article, the properties of a polylactide and starch composite (PLA/starch) and an acrylic acid grafted polylactide and starch composite (PLA‐ g ‐AA/starch) were compared. The composite containing PLA‐ g ‐AA was found to have much better dispersion and homogeneity of starch in the polymer matr…
Carbon nanotubes, carbon nanobelts, and carbon nanoparticles can be prepared directly from active carbon powders by a polyoxometalates (POMs)-assisted mild hydrothermal process. After the hydrothermal reaction the POMs are changed into heteropoly blues, which can be converted into the POMs by a small amount of H2O2 so…
Magnetic susceptibility, heat capacity and electrical resistivity measurements have been carried out on a new ruthenate, La2RuO5 (monoclinic, space group P21/c) which reveal that this compound is a magnetic semiconductor with a high magnetic ordering temperature of 170K. The entropy associated with the magnetic transi…
In this paper, we present new models of germanium selenide chalcogenide glasses heavily doped with silver. The models were readily obtained with ab initio molecular dynamics and their structure agrees closely with diffraction measurements. Thermal molecular dynamics simulation reveals the dynamics of Ag+ ions and the…
A series of bimetallic, trigonal bipyramidal clusters of type {[Co(N-N)(2)](3)[Fe(CN)(6)](2)} are reported. The reaction of {Co(tmphen)(2)}(2+) with [Fe(CN)(6)](3)(-) in MeCN affords {[Co(tmphen)(2)](3)[Fe(CN)(6)](2)} (1). The cluster can exist in three different solid-state phases: a red crystalline phase, a blue sol…
Nanosize effect of ZrO2 in Au/ZrO2 catalyst was studied by deposition-precipitation of Au nanoparticles in similar sizes (4-5 nm) on ZrO2 nanoparticles of varying sizes. The catalysts were characterized with XRD, TEM, XPS, and nitrogen adsorption to understand the effect of ZrO2 particle size on the catalytic nanostru…
The mechanisms for silicon (Si) defect and nanocrystal related white and near-infrared electroluminescences (ELs) of Si-rich SiO2 films synthesized by Si-ion implantation and plasma-enhanced chemical-vapor deposition (PECVD) are investigated. The strong photoluminescence (PL) of Si-ion-implanted SiO2 (SiO2:Si+) at 415…
Drop sizes and drop size distributions were determined by means of an optical shear cell in combination with an optical microscope for the systems polyisobutylene/poly(dimethylsiloxane) (I) and poly(dimethyl-co-methylphenylsiloxane)/poly(dimethylsiloxane) (II) at low concentrations of the suspended phases and at diffe…
We introduce the notion of electronic enthalpy for first-principles structural and dynamical calculations of finite systems under pressure. An external pressure field is allowed to act directly on the electronic structure of the system studied via the ground-state minimization of the functional $E+PV_{q}$, where $V_{q…
Magnetotransport properties in a nanocrystalline La$_{0.67}$Sr$_{0.33}$MnO$_{3}$/micron sized Al$_{2}$O$_{3}$ granular composite with different concentrations of Al$_{2}$O$_{3}$ have been studied. The resistivity curves in absence of magnetic field and the various transport mechanisms which might account for the uptur…
