Macroscopically long ropes of aligned single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs), synthesized by a hydrogen and argon arc discharge method, were cold pressed into tablets without any binder for measurements of their volumetric hydrogen storage capacity. The typical apparent density of the tablets was measured to be around…

The volume of glassy a -SiO 2 upon compression to 9 GPa was measured in situ at high temperatures up to 730 K and at both pressure buildup and release. It was established that the residual densification of a -SiO 2 glass after high-pressure treatment was due to the irreversible transformation accompanied by a small ch…

For the first time, self-diffusion was systematically investigated in well-compacted nanocrystalline (grain size d approximate to 80-100 nm) gamma-Fe-40 wt.% Ni material in a wide temperature range (600-1010 K) in all Harrison-type kinetic regimes. Samples were prepared by sintering the nanocrystalline Fe-Ni powder mi…

Conformational changes of periplasmic binding proteins are essential for their function in chemotaxis and transport. The allose-binding protein from Escherichia coli is, like other receptors in its family, composed of two alpha/beta domains joined by a three-stranded hinge. In the previously determined structure of th…

The 3d electronic structure and phase transition in pure and Cr doped V2O3 are theoretically investigated in relation to the 3d spin-orbit interaction and lattice distortion. A model consisting of the nearest-neighbor V ion pair with full degeneracy of the 3d orbitals is studied within the many-body point of view. It…

Using AlN and RE 2 O 3 (RE = Y, Yb) as sintering additives, two different SiC ceramics with high strength at 1500°C were fabricated by hot‐pressing and subsequent annealing under pressure. The ceramics had a self‐reinforced microstructure consisting of elongated α‐SiC grains and a grain‐boundary glassy phase. High‐tem…

Monte Carlo simulations of the spatially homogeneous Boltzmann equation for inelastic Maxwell molecules, performed by Baldassarri et al. (cond-mat/0111066), have shown that general classes of initial distributions evolve for large times into a singular nonlinear scaling solution with a power law tail. By applying an a…

The crystal structure of Rb-III, stable between 13 and 17 GPa, has been determined from quasi-single-crystal x-ray diffraction data. It is orthorhombic, space group C222(1), with 52 atoms in the unit cell, and has an 8-10-8-8-10-8 stacking of 8- and 10-atom layers. The recently reported 84-atom structure of Cs-III can…

We study the effect of multiparticle interactions on optical gain and stimulated emission in close-packed solids of chemically synthesized CdSe nanocrystals (nanocrystal quantum dots). An analysis of pump-dependent nonlinear absorption signals indicates that the band-edge optical gain is due to multiparticle states wi…

Cover-plate materials are influencing the build-up distances and delay times of high explosive charges in contact to the barrier, loaded by shaped charge jets. Materials with strong bulging behavior give long build-up distances, as steel and ceramics, with subsonic perforation velocities in contrast to materials with…

Large linear electrooptics (the Pockels effect) of up to 17 pm/V for the wavelength 435 nm has been observed in ZnO films doped by fluorine and deposited on bare glass. In order to describe the phenomenon observed, a complex approach, including self-consistent band structure calculations together with the appropriate…

X-ray diffraction experiments have been carried out on b-eucryptite (LiAlSiO 4 ) at pressures up to 2.5 GPa and temperatures up to 1073 K in a large-volume apparatus. With room-temperature compression, we observed a phase transition to a new polymorph between 0.83 and 1.12 GPa. This transition is reversible in charact…

The development of theoretical models that describe the electronic structures of the porphyrins and phthalocyanines using ZINDO and DFT techniques is rapidly approaching the point where the major spectral bands over a wide energy range, for both symmetric and non–symmetric molecules can be fully accounted for. However…
