Covalent Modification of a Glassy Carbon Surface by 4-Aminobenzoic Acid and Its Application in Fabrication of a Polyoxometalates-Consisting Monolayer and Multilayer Films
4-Aminobenzoic acid (4-ABA) was covalently grafted on a glassy carbon electrode (GCE) by amine cation radical formation in the electrooxidation process of the amino-containing compound. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy measurement proves the presence of 4-carboxylphenylamine monolayer on the GCE. The redox responses o…
Photochromic effect in irradiated and annealed nearly IIa type synthetic diamond
We examined the effect of radiation damage and annealing on the optical properties of nitrogen-gettered nearly IIa type synthetic diamonds. It was found that the 2.156 eV centre, whose absorption is usually very weak, appears in these diamonds as one of the dominant absorption features. A new vacancy-related vibronic…
Crystallization, Melting and Morphology of Syndiotactic Polypropylene Fractions. 4. In Situ Lamellar Single Crystal Growth and Melting in Different Sectors
Over a wide crystallization temperature ( T c ) range, elongated rectangular lamellar single crystals of syndiotactic polypropylene (s-PP) grown from the melt of thin films exhibit sectorization along both diagonal directions to form the (010) [with the (010) free edge] and the (100) [with the (100) free edge] sectors…
Modification of the Hydroxyl Surface in Potassium-Acetate-Intercalated Kaolinite between 25 and 300 °C
Changes in the hydroxyl surfaces of potassium-acetate-intercalated kaolinite have been studied over the ambient to predehydroxylation temperature range using a combination of X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Raman spectroscopy. Upon intercalation, the kaolinite expanded along the c -axis direction to 13.88 Å. When the inte…
Impedance spectroscopy analysis of high-temperature phase transitions in sodium lithium niobate ceramics
An investigation was made of the sodium lithium niobate Na 0.85 Li 0.15 NbO 3 ceramics using permittivity properties. Permittivity measurements were carried out by impedance spectroscopy in a frequency range of 5 to 1.3×10 7 Hz and at temperatures ranging from 25 to 750 °C. The thermal stability of the dielectric beha…
Protein crystallization: scaling of charge and salt concentration in lysozyme solutions
We studied the crystallization of lysozyme solutions by adding sodium chloride at pH = 4.5, 5.9 and 7.8. A universal crystallization boundary is found if data are scaled according to the salt concentration normalized by the square of the charge at the appropriate pH. Calculations show that this finding is consistent w…
COMICS: the cooled mid-infrared camera and spectrometer for the Subaru telescope
In this paper, we present the design and test performance of the COMICS, the mid-IR instrument for the 8.2 m Subaru Telescope at Mauna Kea. The instrument has both imaging and long slit grating spectroscopy capabilities in the 8-26 micrometers wavelength range. In the camera section, there are selectable three sets of…
Functionalization of a Poly(amidoamine) Dendrimer with Ferrocenyls and Its Application to the Construction of a Reagentless Enzyme Electrode
Poly(amidoamine) dendrimers having various degrees of modification with the redox-active ferrocenyls were prepared by controlling the molar ratio of ferrocenecarboxaldehyde to amine groups of dendrimers. By alternate layer-by-layer depositions of partial ferrocenyl-tethered dendrimers (Fc-D) with periodate-oxidized gl…

Effects of Fe doping in La1/2Ca1/2MnO3
The effect of Fe doping in the Mn site on the magnetic, transport and structural properties of polycrystalline La1/2Ca1/2MnO3 was studied. Doping with low Fe concentration (< 10%) strongly affects electrical transport and magnetization. Long range charge order is disrupted even for the lowest doping level studied (~2%…
Relaxation schemes for normal modes of magnetic vortices: Application to S-matrix
Relaxation schemes for finding normal modes of nonlinear excitations are described, and applied to the vortex-spinwave scattering problem in classical two-dimensional easy-plane Heisenberg models. The schemes employ the square of an effective Hamiltonian to ensure positive eigenvalues, together with an evolution in ti…
OSIRIS tunable imager and spectrograph
The Optical System for Imaging and low Resolution Integrated Spectroscopy (OSIRIS) will be a Day-One instrument of the Spanish 10.4 m telescope Gran Telescopio Canarias, whose first light is planned for 2002. GTC will be installed at the Observatorio del Roque de los Muchachos in La Palma, Spain. OSIRIS three primary…
Theory of composite-band Wannier states and order-N electronic-structure calculations
From the order-N electronic-structure formulation, a Hamiltonian is derived, of which lowest eigen state is the generalized or composite-band Wannier state. This Hamiltonian maps the locality of the Wannier state to that of a virtual impurity state and to a perturbation from a bonding orbital. These theories are demon…
Reflection properties of nanostructure-arrayed silicon surfaces
The reflection properties of 300 nm periodically structured silicon surfaces with depth varying between 35 and 190 nm, prepared by interference lithography, were examined in the range 200 nm<λ<3000 nm. A decrease in the reflectivity that becomes stronger with increasing structure depth is observed below 1000 nm. This…
XRD, XAS, and IR Characterization of Copper-Exchanged Y Zeolite
Siting of copper ions in Cu I −Y zeolite, prepared by gas-phase exchange of NH 4 −Y with CuCl, has been investigated employing XRPD, XAS and IR spectroscopies. An X-ray powder diffraction study of the zeolite in a vacuum shows that 23.4(2) cuprous ions are located at site I*, 6.1(3) at site II, and 11.5(3) at site II*…
Magnetic properties of nanostructured ferrimagnetic zinc ferrite
Nanostructured ZnFe 2 O 4 ferrites with different grain sizes were prepared by high energy ball milling for various milling times. Both the average grain size and the root mean square strain were estimated from the x-ray diffraction line broadening. The lattice parameter initially decreases slightly with milling and i…
Charge transfer from Cu inCu2Oepitaxially grown on MgO(001) by dc-reactive magnetron sputtering
The ${\mathrm{Cu}}_{2}\mathrm{O}$ film is epitaxially grown on air-cleaved MgO(001) by dc-reactive magnetron sputtering. From the reflection high-energy electron diffraction patterns two orientations are identified: (I) ${\mathrm{Cu}}_{2}\mathrm{O}(001)\ensuremath{\Vert}\mathrm{MgO}(001)$ and ${\mathrm{Cu}}_{2}\mathrm…
Magnetic easy axis development in steel—the influence of manufacturing
Oil and gas pipelines often display a bulk magnetic easy magnetization direction, and this may influence results obtained during magnetic nondestructive evaluation. The origin of this magnetic easy axis is not well known. Earlier work [L. Clapham, C. Heald, T. Krause, and D. L. Atherton, J. Appl. Phys. 86, 1574 (1999)…
Alternating current electrical properties of antiferroelectric lead zirconate thin films by pulsed excimer laser ablation
In situ crystalline lead zirconate (PZ) thin films were deposited on platinum metallized silicon substrates, using a 248 nm KrF pulsed excimer laser ablation technique. The antiferroelectricity in PZ thin films was confirmed by means of P vs E and C vs V measurements. The maximum observed saturated polarization (Ps) w…
