Magnetically Modulated Optical Nanoprobes (MagMOONs) are magnetic particles that indicate their angular orientation by emitting varying intensities of light for different orientations and have shown promise for a variety of applications. In this letter we describe a new method to fabricate uniform magnetic half-shell…
Recent experimental results on granular gas in Knudsen regime excited by a vibrating piston in micro-gravity have measured distribution p(I) of impacts I with a fix target. They give p(I) scaling as exp(-I/Io). This distribution leads to a probability distribution function of speed v along z varying approximately as f…

With six polymorphs coexisting at room temperature, 5-methyl-2-[(2-nitrophenyl)amino]-3-thiophenecarbonitrile (ROY) is the top system in the current Cambridge Structural Database (Feb. 2005) for the number of polymorphs of solved crystal structures. Here we report two new ROY polymorphs, Y04 and YT04, and the crystal…
We perform first principles calculations on work functions of single wall carbon nanotubes, which can be divided into two classes according to tube diameter (D). For class I tubes (D > 1 nm), work functions lie within a narrow distribution (approximately 0.1 eV) and show no significant chirality or diameter dependence…
ZnO nanocrystals with various shapes (see Figure) have been synthesized via non-hydrolytic ester elimination sol–gel reactions between zinc acetate and 1,12-dodecanediol. Uniform anisotropic cone-shaped, hexagonal cone-shaped, and rod-shaped ZnO nanocrystals have been synthesized using various surfactants.
Simulations of the absorption efficiency using the discrete dipole approximation (DDA) method and taking into account the real shape of gold nanorods are reported. A dominant surface plasma band corresponding to the longitudinal resonance is observed. Its maximum position lambda(max) shifts to the red as the aspect ra…
We investigated the two-photon-induced photoluminescence properties of single gold nanorods by scanning near-field spectroscopy. The process was found to be initiated by a sequential one-photon absorption for creating a pair of an electron and a hole in the sp and d bands. Photoluminescence is then radiated when the e…
This DOI is not currently attached to any metadata records. DOIs can’t actually ever be deleted (they’re persistent), but sometimes our members create DOIs in error. We do have a process to approximate deletion which we follow only in rare cases where the DOI has been genuinely created in error, and most crucially, if…
The contact fracture behaviors of fine-grained Ti3SiC2 and coarse-grained high purity Ti3SiC2 are examined by the Hertzian indentation and Vickers indentation technique. The Vickers hardness of bulk Ti3SiC2 is as low as 5.3~6.3 Gpa, and the Hertzian contact stress-strain curves for Ti3SiC2 deviate much from linearity,…
Sol-gel coatings of TiO2 have been prepared from TiO2 sol and deposited by a dip-coating technique on 316L stainless steel sheets to study their electrochemical behavior in corrosive solutions. The influence of the coatings on the chemical corrosion of the substrate was evaluated by potentiodynamic polarization curves…
It has been established that the new circular dichroism beamline CD12 has sufficiently high flux at low wavelengths to cause apparent irradiation problems with protein samples while their synchrotron radiation circular dichroism (SRCD) spectra are being collected. The cause of this effect has been extensively investig…
To replace lead oxide glass, Bi2O3-SiO2-ZnO glass, as a Pb-free glass, was examined for optical properties for a transparent dielectric layer of a plasma display panel (PDP). The glass was evaluated for glass transition temperature (Tg) and thermal expansion coefficient (α). The transparent thick films produced with a…
For the application of environment conscious glass-fertilizer, K2O-CaO-P2O5 glasses were fabricated by melt-quenching process, and the dissolution properties of these glasses were investigated using pH meter and ICP analyzer. Additionally, the fertilizer effects on rice culture were evaluated. The pH values depended o…
The circular magnetization process of FeSiBCuNb amorphous and nanocrystalline wires has been followed by the impedance measurements as a function of the amplitude and the frequency of driving current. The domain structure and consequently, the magnetization process have been tailored by suitable thermal processing. Th…
Hardness and wear resistant characteristics of reaction-bonded silicon carbides with boron carbide additions are evaluated relative to those of reaction bonded silicon carbide (RBSC). The reaction-bonded SiC-B4C composites exhibit a distinctive improvement of hardness and wear resistance, indicative of high resistance…
The effects of contamination overlayer and density as well as surface and interface roughnesses on the x-ray reflectivity of a SiO2 ultrathin film are discussed from viewpoints of experiment and theory. Grazing incidence x-ray reflectivity (GIXRR) is used to accurately measure physical structures of SiO2 ultrathin fil…
Polyimide-clay nanocomposites were prepared from their precursor, namely, polyamic acid, by the solution-casting method. Organomodified montmorillonite (MMT) clay was prepared by treating Na+MMT (Kunipia F) with three different intercalating agents, namely, piperazine dihydrochloride, 1,3-bis(4-piperidinylpropane) dih…
Diatoms are very useful environmental indicators in limnological and paleolimnological studies. Spanish reservoirs offer a valuable opportunity for the study of relationships between diatoms and environmental conditions, since these ecosystems are abundant in this country and the patterns of their regional limnology a…
Alumina and alumina‐based “nanocomposites” with 2 and 5 vol% silicon carbide and varying amounts of yttria (0–1.5 wt%) have been prepared by pressureless sintering in the temperature range 1450°–1650°C. The effects of composition and sintering temperature on density and microstructure are reported. Yttria inhibited si…
