Synchrotron x-ray-diffraction patterns were measured and analyzed for a polycrystalline sample of the room-temperature ferromagnet ${\mathrm{Sr}}_{3.12}{\mathrm{Er}}_{0.88}{\mathrm{Co}}_{4}{\mathrm{O}}_{10.5}$ from $300\phantom{\rule{0.3em}{0ex}}\text{to}\phantom{\rule{0.3em}{0ex}}650\phantom{\rule{0.3em}{0ex}}\mathrm…
We have performed high-resolution inelastic neutron scattering studies on three samples of hydrogenated tetrahydrofuran-water clathrates, containing either H2 at different para/ortho concentrtion, or HD. By a refined analysis of the data, we are able to assign the spectral bands to rotational and center-of-mass transl…
The maximal value of thermal conductivity κ_{max} of the perfect wurzite GaN crystal containing isotopes of natural abundance is estimated. Our upper limit of κ=4800 W/Km at T_{max}=32 K is smaller than calculated by Liu and Balandin κ=6000 W/Km and higher than obtained by Slack et al κ=3750 W/Km. The phenomenological…
Taking into account the electrostrictive coupling between inhomogeneous polarization fluctuations and lattice strains in ferroelectric films, we show that, in heterostructures involving strained epitaxial films and metal electrodes, the single-domain state may remain stable against the transformation into a polydomain…
Microphase separation is investigated for segmented polyurethane copolymers synthesized from 4,4‘-methylenediphenyl diisocyanate and 1,4-butanediol as the hard segments and poly(hexamethylene oxide diol) and hydroxyl-terminated polydimethylsiloxane as soft segments. The neat PDMS-based diol exhibits two segmental rela…
Functionally graded and continuously aligned pore structures have been fabricated by a modified tape‐casting process for use as solid oxide fuel cell electrodes, catalysts, sensors, and filtration/separation devices. Pore gradients from <5 to 100 μm and aligned pore tubules have been directly fabricated in various…
Natural nanowires (NWs) of cellulose obtained from a marine animal tunicate display surprisingly high uniformity and aspect ratio comparable with synthetic NWs. Their layer-by-layer assembled (LBL) films show strong antireflection (AR) properties having an origin in a novel highly porous architecture reminiscent of a…
Purpose To investigate the inhibitive effect of Delonix regia extracts to reduce the corrosion rate of aluminium in acidic media. The study was a trial to find a low cost and environmentally safe inhibitor to reduce the corrosion rate of aluminium. Design/methodology/approach The inhibition efficiency was evaluated us…
It's hip to be square: Squaraine rotaxanes have very similar photophysical properties to the commonly used Cy-5 fluorophore, but are substantially more photostable and resist self-quenching upon aggregation. Molecular probes containing squaraine rotaxanes (see structure) are shown to be versatile, high-performance NIR…
We demonstrate spin injection into a graphene thin film with high reliability by using non-local magnetoresistance (MR) measurements, in which the electric current path is completely separated from the spin current path. Using these non-local measurements, an obvious MR effect was observed at room temperature; the MR…
In this work, single-crystalline gold nanoplates were produced by reacting an aqueous solution of chloroauric acid with one serum albumin protein (BSA) at the physiological temperature, where BSA provided the dual function of Au(III) reduction and directing the anisotropic growth of Au(0) into plate-like structures. S…
The key formula for computing the orbital magnetization of a crystalline system has been recently found [D. Ceresoli, T. Thonhauser, D. Vanderbilt, R. Resta, Phys. Rev. B {\bf 74}, 024408 (2006)]: it is given in terms of a Brillouin-zone integral, which is discretized on a reciprocal-space mesh for numerical implement…
We develop a phenomenological thermodynamic theory of ferroelectric $\mathrm{Ba}\mathrm{Ti}{\mathrm{O}}_{3}$ (BT) thin films epitaxially grown on cubic substrates using the Landau-Devonshire eight-order potential. The constructed ``misfit-temperature'' phase diagram is asymmetrical. We found that the overall view of t…
Most technical polymers and many biopolymers contain very different molecular species (unlike chain length, molecular architecture and/or chemical composition) in contrast to pure low molecular weight compounds. This inconsistent constitution of macromolecules proves very adverse in many cases. An adequate fractionati…
Phase field modeling of domain structures in ferroelectrics nanorods of different shape and sizes is presented. The vortex domain configurations in confined ferroelectrics have been explored by varying the ratio of the energies of electrostatic and elastic interactions. It is shown that a strong effect of the electros…
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to review the current application areas of shape memory alloy (SMA) actuators in intelligent robotic systems and devices. Design/methodology/approach This paper analyses how actuation and sensing functions of the SMA actuator have been exploited and incorporated in micro and macro…
Thin-film Bragg stacks exhibiting structural color have been fabricated by a layer-by-layer (LbL) deposition process involving the sequential adsorption of nanoparticles and polymers. High- and low-refractive-index regions of quarter-wave stacks were generated by calcining LbL-assembled multilayers containing TiO(2) a…
Electrospinning is a highly versatile method to process solutions or melts, mainly of polymers, into continuous fibers with diameters ranging from a few micrometers to a few nanometers. This technique is applicable to virtually every soluble or fusible polymer. The polymers can be chemically modified and can also be t…
The chemical bonding character of iodine-intercalated single-walled carbon nanotube (I−SWNT) has been systematically investigated with combinative X-ray spectroscopies. According to I L I -edge X-ray absorption near-edge structure (XANES) analysis, a white line peak corresponding to 2s → 5p transition shows nearly ide…
Static and dynamic properties of dislocation dipoles are investigated under isotropic and anisotropic elasticity. In elastically isotropic systems for a dislocation character between 35 and 40°, a dipole assumes the same stress-free equilibrium angle of 90° as the screw dipole. This can be affected by elastic anisotro…
