The surface and grain-boundary effects on the in-plane thermal conductivity of polycrystalline platinum nanofilms have been investigated. The thicknesses of the nanofilms range from 15.0 to 63.0 nm and the mean grain sizes measured by x-ray diffraction vary from 9.5 to 26.4 nm. The thermal conductivities of the nanofi…
Abstract Synthesis, structure, and catalysis studies of two Au‐ and Ag‐based initiators, namely, [3‐( N ‐ tert ‐butylacetamido)‐1‐(2‐hydroxycyclohexyl)imidazol‐2‐ylidene]AuCl ( 1c ) and [3‐( N ‐ tert ‐butylacetamido)‐1‐(2‐hydroxycyclohexyl)imidazol‐2‐ylidene]AgCl ( 1b ), for the bulk ring‐opening polymerization of L ‐…
We report on the design and synthesis of three series of segmented amphiphilic block codendrimers, and on their self-organizing behavior in liquid-crystalline mesophases. Connecting two prefunctionalized monodendrons, each differing in their chemical constitution and generation number, yielded these diblock supermolec…
Abstract In this study, the antifungal activity of chitosan A (MW = 92.1 kDa) and B (MW = 357.3 kDa), with 94.2% N‐deacetylation were examined at various concentrations against fungi including Penicillium digitatum, Penicillium italicum, Botrydiplodia lecanidion and Botrytis cinerea . The effectiveness of these chitos…
Mass transfer limitations of scaffolds are currently hindering the development of 3-dimensional, clinically viable, tissue engineered constructs. We have developed a poly(lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) hollow fibre membrane scaffold that will provide support for cell culture, allow psuedovascularisation in vitro and pro…
We study static and dynamical properties that distinguish 2D crystals constrained to lie on a curved substrate from their flat-space counterparts. A generic mechanism of dislocation unbinding in the presence of varying Gaussian curvature is presented in the context of a model surface amenable to full analytical treatm…
The electronic properties of one-dimensional clusters of N atoms or molecules have been studied. The model used is similar to the Kronig-Penney model with the potential offered by each ion being approximated by an attractive delta function. The energy eigenvalues, the eigenstates and the density of states are calculat…
Abstract The ligand Hhfth [4,4,5,5,6,6,6‐heptafluoro‐1‐(2‐thienyl)hexane‐1,3‐dione], which contains a heptafluoropropyl group, has been used to synthesize several new ternary lanthanide complexes (Ln = Er, Ho, Yb, Nd) in which the synergistic ligand is 1,10‐phenanthroline (phen) or 2,2′‐bipyridine (bipy). The two seri…
First-principles calculations based on spin density functional theory are performed to study the spin-resolved electronic properties of GaN doped with 6.25% of Cu. The Cu dopants are found spin polarized and the calculated band structures suggest a 100% polarization of the conduction carriers. The Cu-doped GaN favors…
The effective linear coupling coefficient and the total spin-splitting are calculated in Ga- and N- face InGaN quantum wells. Alloy content, geometry, and gate voltage affect an internal field and an electron density distribution in the growth direction that has direct effect on a spin-splitting. The sign of structura…
In this paper, we report on the photoelectronic properties of TPD studied in sandwich geometry. In particular, we have obtained from both forward and reverse bias measurements the "mew-tau" product for holes in TPD. "mew" is the hole mobility and "tau" the carrier trapping time. The "mew-tau" product is a measure of t…
Conventional wisdom presumes that low-coordinated crystal ground states require directional interactions. Using our recently introduced optimization procedure to achieve self-assembly of targeted structures [M. C. Rechtsman, Phys. Rev. Lett. 95, 228301 (2005); Phys. Rev. E 73, 011406 (2006)], we present an isotropic p…
An alternated 1:1 chain compound of a Mn(III) salen derivative and the TCNQ monoradical was synthesized: [Mn(5-TMAMsaltmen)(TCNQ)](ClO(4))(2) (1) (TCNQ=tetracyano-p-quinodimethane; 5-TMAMsaltmen=N,N'-(1,1,2,2-tetramethylethylene) bis(5-trimethylammoniomethylsalicylideneiminato)). Compound 1 has a zigzag chain structur…
A varied bouquet: Crystalline nanoflowers (see picture) of compounds with different chemical and physical properties, for example, In2O3, ZnO, CoO, MnO, and ZnSe, are grown by a new approach, limited ligand protection (LLP). LLP destabilizes the primary nanoparticles and promotes their three-dimensionally oriented att…
Spin and orbital magnetic moments of rhenium in AA′FeReO6 double perovskites (A,A′=Ba, Sr, and Ca) have been directly probed employing x-ray magnetic circular dichroism at the Re L2,3 edges. A considerable orbital magnetic moment is observed in all the compounds studied, which confirm theoretical predictions of unquen…
By means of magnetic susceptibility and specific heat measurements, x-ray and unpolarized neutron diffraction investigations on powder and single-crystal samples, simultaneous long-range antiferromagnetic Fe and Nd ordering in NdFe 3 ( 11 BO 3 ) 4 with R 32 chemical structure has been found at temperatures below T N =…
We study a model for corrosion and passivation of a metallic surface after small damage of its protective layer. The crossover from an initial regime of slow corrosion rate (pit nucleation) to a regime of rapid corrosion (propagation of the pit) takes place at the incubation time. The model is defined in a lattice who…
We have demonstrated experimentally the manipulation of exciton and nuclear spins in a single self-assembled In$_{0.75}$Al$_{0.25}$As/Al$_{0.3}$Ga$_{0.7}$As quantum dot. The oscillation of exciton and nuclear spin polarizations were clearly observed. The switching of the emissions in Zeeman split pair indicates that t…
The stability, electronic and magnetic properties of Fe atoms adsorbed on the self-assembled Bi-dimer lines nanostructure on the H/Si(001) surface are addressed by spin-density functional calculations. Our results show that Fe adatoms are much more stable on sites closer to the Bi nanolines being able to form one-dime…
Soft x-ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD) measurements at the Co L2,3 edges of Co-doped rutile TiO2 at room temperature revealed clear multiplet features characteristic of ferromagnetic Co2+ ions coordinated by O2− ions, being in sharp contrast to the featureless XMCD spectrum of Co metal or metallic clusters. The…
