Poly(D-lactide)s (PDLA) having an end group of trimethoxysilyl (P(x)-Si-(OMe)(3)) or monoethoxydimethylsilyl (P(x)-Si-OEt) group were synthesized to immobilize macromolecular chains of polylactide onto a flat silicon surface by the "grafting onto" mechanism. Both the end-functional PDLAs were efficiently immobilized o…

We investigated nonlinear absorption and photobleaching processes in a liquid-crystal elastomer doped with light-sensitive azobenzene moiety. A conventional one-dimensional holographic grating was recorded in the material with the use of two crossed UV laser beams and the angular dependence of the diffraction efficien…

The enhancement of weak Raman signals has been challenged to obtain high-quality signals of surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS). By employing the Parkinson's disease-related protein of α-synuclein, we introduce SERS-active gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) individually isolated with an ultrathin α-synuclein shell and th…

We review the differences between bubble formation in champagne and other carbonated drinks, and stout beers which contain a mixture of dissolved nitrogen and carbon dioxide. The presence of dissolved nitrogen in stout beers gives them several properties of interest to connoisseurs and physicists. These remarkable pro…

Divalent transition metal oxide doping of lead-free (K,Na,Li)(Nb,Ta,Sb)O 3 piezoceramics is studied. Two different behaviors were observed independently of the doping metal: at low concentrations, the tetragonal structure is preserved, while at a high doping level, the material becomes orthorhombic. For any given dopi…

Results from first-principles investigations of the energetical, structural, electronic, and vibrational properties of model structures probing the metal-rich region of the lanthanum-hydrogen system, i.e., the region of the solid solution of hydrogen in lanthanum, are presented. We have studied the site preference and…

The microwave-synthesized zinc-oxide (ZnO) nanonorods of average length of ∼ 1500 nm and diameter ∼ 100 nm were irradiated with 6.5 meV electrons. From sample to sample, the electron fluence was varied over the range 5×1014 to 2.5×1015 e-cm−2. The pre- and post-electron-irradiated ZnO nanorods were characterized by X-…

The chirality organization of polyaniline-unit molecules was achieved by the introduction of amino acid pendant groups through intramolecular hydrogen bonding, which plays an important role in the stabilization of the chirality-organized redox species. Another interesting feature of the synthesized polyaniline-unit mo…

We investigate thermally driven electronic transport through a single-molecule magnet (SMM) coupled to a ferromagnetic (FM) lead and a normal-metallic lead. Due to the thermal spin-transfer torque effect, the orientation of the SMM’s spin can be manipulated by temperature bias or gate voltage to be parallel or antipar…
