Single crystal BaTiO3 thin films have been transferred onto Pt-coated and Si3N4-coated substrates by the ion implantation-induced layer transfer method using H+ and He+ ion coimplantation and subsequent annealing. The transferred BaTiO3 films are single crystalline with root mean square roughness of 17nm. Polarized op…

Abstract A model based on a combination of the solubility parameters of Hansen and the polymer solution theory of Flory–Rehner was used to predict the solubility and permeation properties of organic solvents in Viton polymeric glove material. To test the validity of the model, weight gain data were collected for 32 or…

We study crystallization of paramagnetic beads in a magnetic field gradient generated by one-dimensional nanomagnets. The pressure in such a system depends on both the magnetic forces and the hydrodynamic flow, and we estimate the flow threshold for disassembling the crystal near the magnetic potential barrier. A numb…

The spontaneous formation of loosely bound ordered aggregates, foam, voids, chains, striations, and loops (see Figure 1a), called mesostructures hereafter, has been observed in colloidal monolayers trapped at the air-water interface. The distance between particles in these mesostructures is of the order of the particl…

Mesoporous silica materials with pore structures such as 2D hexagonal close packed, bicontinuous cubic, lamellar, sponge, wormhole-like, and rectangular have been made by using surfactant templating sol-gel processes. However, there are still some "intermediate" phases, in particular mesh phases, that are formed by su…

A bis-monopyridyl Wang-type tag was prepared for application in the hydrocarbon/perfluorocarbon phase-switching of substrates/products. This "catch-and-release" strategy relies on the reversible coordination of the tag to a fluorous copper(II)-carboxylate complex. A hydantoin was prepared in high yield and purity by a…

The morphology of Au–Al2O3 nanocermet thin films, prepared by cosputtering Au and Al2O3 on float glass substrates, was studied using surface sensitive x-ray scattering techniques and the results were correlated with the optical absorption of the films measured using ultraviolet visible spectroscopy. The presence of go…

We compare a newly developed hybrid simulation method which combines classical molecular dynamics (MD) and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) to a simulation consisting only of molecular dynamics. The hybrid code is composed of three regions: a classical MD region, a continuum domain where the dynamical equations are…
