La–Sb–Mn–O compounds have been prepared by the solid-state reaction of La 2 O 3 , Sb 2 O 3 and MnCO 3 . The materials have a perovskite structure and exhibit the colossal magnetoresistance (CMR) effect, and the maximum magnetoresistance ratio could reach as high as 60% (at 225 K under 5 T) for La 0.9 Sb 0.1 MnO 3 .

Single crystals of the chemically and electrochemically delithiated Li x MnO 2 ( x < 0.1) have been successfully synthesized from the parent orthorhombic LiMnO 2 single crystals. A single-crystal X-ray diffraction study revealed that the average structure of Li x MnO 2 was the disordered rocksalt-type with the space g…

Structure maps have always held out the allure of being useful guides in materials design. A novel method for predicting candidate structure types demonstrates that the Pettifor maps for binary compounds are surprisingly predictive and offers a natural way for extending the predictive power of the maps to higher multi…

The A 1 -symmetry Raman spectra of berlinite in a broad temperature range, encompassing the α–β phase transition, are reported. The temperature dependence of the lattice mode parameters is presented, particularly concerning the 'soft' mode at ∼220 cm −1 , which exhibits a complex behaviour in the α phase. This is acco…

Ni/diamond Schottky diodes were fabricated on boron-doped homoepitaxial diamond films. Temperature dependence on electrical characteristics of the Schottky diodes was investigated in a temperature range 148 to ∼448 K. The current–voltage characteristics of the diodes show excellent rectification behavior. Temperature…

DOTA-tetraamide ligands having extended phenol or pyridine substituents have been synthesized. The (5)D(0) --> (7)F(J) deltaJ = 1 and 2 emission bands in the corresponding europium(III) complexes differ in their sensitivity to solution pH. This offers the potential for developing pH responsive probes for in vivo imagi…

We analyze the effect of a continuous spread of particle lengths on the phase behavior of rodlike particles, using the Onsager theory of hard rods. Our aim is to establish whether "unusual" effects such as isotropic-nematic-nematic (I-N-N) phase separation can occur even for length distributions with a single peak. We…
