We investigated the thermal conductivity of InP nanowires with diameters $d=0.83$, 1.66, 2.49, 3.32, 4.15, and 4.97 nm by means of molecular-dynamics simulations using a potential with two-body and three-body contributions. In the temperature range of 100--700 K, thermal conductivities of approximately $1.0--2.5\text{…

We fabricated all solid electrochromic devices by connecting two kinds of cyanide thin films. We found that the magnitude of t R decreases with increase in the electric pressure | V | as t R ∝| V | -1 and with decrease in the device thickness d D as t R ∝( d D -2 d EDL ) 2 , where d EDL (=50–100 nm) is the effective t…

The cumulant expansion is one of the most powerful and useful methods for EXAFS data analysis, in which the higher-order cumulants allow to consider deviations from a simple Gaussian distribution. In this work, analytical expressions have been derived to show the effects of neglecting higher-order cumulants in EXAFS a…

The coordination geometry adopted by the lanthanide complexes of DOTA-tetraamides is a critical factor in determining their water exchange kinetics. Controlling the water exchange kinetics of DOTA-tetraamide complexes, and by extension their coordination geometry, is of particular interest because of the potential app…

A resonance Raman study of ${\text{C}}_{10}{\text{H}}_{2}$ and ${\text{C}}_{12}{\text{H}}_{2}$ polyynes encapsulated in single-wall carbon nanotubes of different diameters is presented. We show that the energy of the optical transitions associated with excited dark states of the polyyne depends on the diameter of the…

A series of multistate redox-active architectures has been synthesized, structurally characterized, and their optical and redox properties investigated. Specifically, two redox-active ferrocene or cobalt-dithiolene moieties have been introduced to the "bay" region of perylene-bisimides. Three of these disubstituted pe…

Using absorbance, fluorescence, resonance light scattering, and circular dichroism spectroscopy, we studied the self-assembly of the anionic meso-tetra(4-sulfonatophenyl)porphine (TPPS(4)(2-/4-)) and a cationic 22-residue polypeptide. We found that three TPPS(4)(2-/4-) molecules bind to the peptide, which contains nin…

The topotactic reduction of the acentric phase YMnO 3 with CaH 2 in the temperature range 225 °C < T < 350 °C yields phases of composition YMnO 3− x ( x = 0 < x < 0.2). Oxide ions are deintercalated from the equatorial anion sites of the material, which induces increasing levels of structural disorder into the resulti…
