We report measurements of viscoelastic properties of thin polymer films of 10-100 nm at the MHz range. These thin films are confined between a quartz crystal resonator and a millimetric bead layer, producing an increase of both resonance frequency and dissipation of the quartz resonator. The shear modulus and dynamic…

Carbon nanotube-supported metallic nanoparticles including Pt, Rh, and bimetallic Pd−Rh are effective catalysts for the hydrogenation of neat benzene at room temperature, which cannot be achieved by carbon-based Pd and Rh catalysts available commercially. The rate of the hydrogenation reaction is zero-order with respe…

Using a macroscopic analysis, we show that time-dependent noncollinear spin transport possesses a wavelike character. This leads to modifications of pure spin-diffusion dynamics and allows one to extract a finite spin-signal propagation velocity. We numerically study the dynamics of a pure spin current pumped into a n…

The responsive behavior of methanethiol and methylthiolate molecules on the Au(111) surface with an applied electrical potential is studied, and it is shown how the sulfur adsorption site, the S-H bond orientation and the interacting energy change with an external electric field strength. The electron charge density c…

We develop a phenomenological hydrodynamic theory of coherent magnetic precession coupled to electric currents. Exchange interaction between electron spin and collective magnetic texture produces two reciprocal effects: spin-transfer torque on the magnetic order parameter and the Berry-phase gauge field experienced by…

A carbon nanotube transistor array was used to detect DNA hybridization. A new approach to ensure specific adsorption of DNA to the nanotubes was developed. The polymer poly (methylmethacrylate(0.6)-co-poly(ethyleneglycol)methacrylate(0.15)-co-N-succinimidyl methacrylate(0.25)) was synthesized and bonded noncovalently…

The results of positron-annihilation lifetime spectroscopy measurements on undoped, electron-irradiated, and Nb-doped ${\text{SrTiO}}_{3}$ single crystals are reported. Perfect lattice and vacancy defect positron lifetimes were calculated using two different first-principles schemes. The Sr-vacancy defect-related posi…

How does the framework shape influence the static polarizability (alpha_0) and the first hyperpolarizability (beta_0)? This work, for the first time, presents a comparison study at the MP2/6-31+G(d) level, by using the nitrogen-substituted polyacenes as models: the Moebius strip with a knot, the cyclic strip without k…

Highly hierarchical platelike FeWO(4) microcrystals have been synthesized by a simple solvothermal route using FeCl(3) x 6 H(2)O and Na(2)WO(4) x 2 H(2)O as precursors, where ethylene glycol (EG) plays an important role as a capping agent in directing growth and self-assembly of such unique structures. In addition, a…

The recently discovered FeAs-based materials exhibit a $(\ensuremath{\pi},0)$ spin density wave (SDW) in the undoped state, which gives way to superconductivity upon doping. Here we show that due to an interesting topological feature of the band structure, the SDW state cannot acquire a full gap. This is demonstrated…

I2 was adsorbed on single-walled carbon nanotube from ethanol solution at 303 K. The I2 adsorption isotherm was Langmuirian, giving 35 (+/-10) mg g(-1) of the saturated adsorption amount (coverage 0.06-0.09). The I2-adsorption treatment of SWCNT bundles reduced the N2 adsorption amount at 77 K by only 3%; the adsorpti…
