Abstract Poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) films containing photochromic spiropyran (SP) derivatives with an alkyl chain produced surface relief structures upon photoirradiation. The material moved from the dark to the irradiated part by the light longer than 350 nm from a high‐pressure mercury lamp. This is the first…

In this preliminary work we have prepared a fluorinated polymer capable of solubilizing an appreciable amount of O(2) and, at the same time, maintaining a higher water solubility than perfluoroalkanes investigated as injectable O(2) carriers. In particular, we describe the synthesis and characterization of a new macro…

A nematic comb-shaped copolymer and its nanocomposites containing 0.063−0.54 in vol % of silver nanoparticles were studied by broadband dielectric spectroscopy. The frequency dependence of specific alternating current (ac) conductivity was used to estimate the temperature-frequency intervals of charge transfer by long…

A first-principles-based approach is developed to mimic the (asymmetric) screening of the depolarizing field at the top surface of ferroelectric ultrathin films. Varying the magnitude of this one-side screening (i) results in the formation of different kinds of periodic nanostripe domain patterns, including original o…

The characteristic of cold-adapted enzymes, high catalytic efficiency at low temperatures, is often associated with low thermostability and high flexibility. In this context, we analyzed the catalytic properties and solved the crystal structure of phenylalanine hydroxylase from the psychrophilic bacterium Colwellia ps…

We use oxygen vacancy formation energy (OVFE) as a measure of how easily lattice oxygen may participate in the Mars and Van Krevelen mechanism for oxidation reactions. We calculate with density functional theory how OVFE is affected when some of Zn atoms in ZnO(101̄0) surface layer are substituted by other metal dopan…

High-molecular-weight polyricinoleate, with an M(w) of 100,600, was enzymatically prepared by the polycondensation of methylricinoleate using immobilized lipase from Pseudomonas cepacia (IM-PC) in bulk in the presence of 4 A molecular sieves at 80 degrees C for 7 d. Polyricinoleate was a viscous liquid at room tempera…

Three different varieties of mesoporous silicas were synthesized by varying the postsynthesis treatment of an as-synthesized ordered mesoporous material type MCM-41. The resulting materials consisted of a purely siliceous MCM-41, a pore-expanded MCM-41 (PE-MCM-41C), and a surfactant-laden pore-expanded MCM-41 (PE-MCM-…

Recent theory and measurements of the velocity of current-driven domain walls in magnetic nanowires have re-opened the unresolved question of whether Landau-Lifshitz damping or Gilbert damping provides the more natural description of dissipative magnetization dynamics. In this paper, we argue that (as in the past) exp…
