The superconducting and structural properties of a series of Mg1-xAlxB2 samples have been investigated. X-ray diffraction results confirmed the existence of a structural transition associated with the significant change in inter-boron layer distance as reported previously by Slusky et al. Moreover,transmission-electro…

In this letter, we investigate the upconversion properties of 19ZnO–80TeO2–1Er2O3 glass after excitation into the I11/24 level using 980 nm radiation. At an excitation power density of 880 W/cm2, green emission [(2H11/2, 4S3/2)→4I15/2] dominates the upconversion spectrum with an efficiency of 0.16%. Temporal studies r…

Atomistic simulations using a combination of classical force field and density-functional theory (DFT) show that carbon atoms remain essentially sp(2) coordinated in either bent tubes or tubes pushed by an atomically sharp atomic-force microscope (AFM) tip. Subsequent Green's-function-based transport calculations reve…

Light scattering by individual Ag nanoparticles and structures have been studied spectroscopically. Individual particles were selected and manipulated with a micromanipulator installed inside a scanning electron microscope (SEM). With typical particle dimensions of some 100 nm, the plasma resonances of particles and t…

Giant magnetic-field-induced strain of about 9.5% was observed at ambient temperature in a magnetic field of less than 1 T in NiMnGa orthorhombic seven-layered martensitic phase. The strain proved to be caused by magnetic-field-controlled twin boundary motion. According to an analysis of x-ray diffraction data, the cr…

Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) and optical absorption spectra of Mn 2+ ions in alkali borotellurite glass systems have been studied. The EPR spectra of all the glass samples exhibit three resonance signals at g ≈ 2.0, g ≈ 3.3 and g ≈ 4.3. A six line hyperfine structure has also been observed at g ≈ 2.0. The con…

The derivation of effective equations for pressure wave propagation in a bubbly fluid at very low void fractions is examined. A Vlasov-type equation is derived for the probability distribution of the bubbles in phase space instead of computing effective equations in terms of averaged quantities. This provides a more g…

Microphase separation was induced from homogeneous polystyrene- block -polyisoprene (SI diblock) copolymer by grafting of a liquid-crystalline (LC) monomer onto the polyisoprene (PI) block. The origin of the formation of microdomain structure in the side-chain LC block copolymer from a homogeneous SI diblock copolymer…

The atomic charges derived from the extended electronegativity function, which includes the influence of bonding, were examined. These atomic charges were found to conform to an intuitive notion of atomic charge at the intermolecular, interatomic, and electronic levels. In addition, a new model for the core ionization…
