Incommensurately modulated ammonium tetrafluoroberyllate (AFB) occurs in a narrow temperature interval between the paraelectric room-temperature phase with space group Pnma (Ti = 178 K) and the ferroelectric low-temperature phase with space group Pna2(1) (Tc = 173 K). The structure is determined from accurate single-c…

The homodimeric HU protein from the hyperthermophile Thermotoga maritima (HUTmar) is a model system which can yield insights into the molecular determinants of thermostability in proteins. Unusually for a thermostable protein, HUTmar exists in a structurally heterogeneous state as evidenced by the assignment of two di…

The fcc Zr2Ni- and MgCu2-type phases, being primary crystalline products of certain amorphous alloys with high glass-forming ability, should provide local structural information about the related amorphous alloys. The present paper gives a detailed analysis of the common structural features of these two fcc phases. Th…

A new method for the synthesis of monolayer-protected silver clusters (MPCs) based on the two-phase reduction of a stable negatively charged silver bromide sol is described. Phase transfer of the colloid to toluene is accomplished using tetra-n-octylammonium bromide as the phase transfer reagent. The advantage of this…

Abstract The compatibilizing effect of the ionomer, poly(styrene‐ co ‐sodium acrylate) (PSSAc), on immiscible blends of polystyrene (PS)/polyamide 6 (PA6) was studied by mechanical tests and scanning electron microscopy. The PSSAc acts as an effective compatibilizer because both the deformation at break (%) obtained b…

The optical and magneto-optical (MO) spectra of the lanthanum monochalcogenides are investigated theoretically using the fully relativistic Dirac LMTO band-structure method. The LSDA calculations with shifted La $4f$ empty states describe quite well the shape and magnitude of the LaS MO spectra in an external magnetic…

This study investigated the relaxation behaviors of octadecylamine (ODA), stearic acid (SA), and SA/ODA mixed monolayers at the air/water interface. Area relaxations of monolayers at constant surface pressure were studied by a nucleation and growth mechanism and by direct observation using a Brewster angle microscope…

Efficient quantitative phase field simulation using an adaptive finite volume method with an antisolutal trapping scheme is presented for a binary dendritic growth in a forced flow. For the case of no convection, the calculated results with different interface thickness are examined. It is found that with a proper ant…
