We construct a phenomenological model to describe the general features of chiral smectic C* (Sm C*) phase and Sm A–Sm C* phase transition properties of ferroelectric liquid crystals. The free-energy density of the system is expanded in terms of three degrees of freedom – tensor orientational order Q ij , scalar smecti…

An instrument is developed to evaluate the performance of heat dissipative coatings. The instrument has features to measure the apparent emissivity of a given surface under different input power settings. The emissivity of aluminum (Al Q-panel) and copper, as measured from 60-135 degrees C, showed a value of 0.15+/-0.…

We report the effect of a 4d ion (Ru3+) substitution on structural disorder and magnetic ordering in the cyanide-bridged molecular magnets, RuxNi3-3x/2[Cr(CN)6]2⋅zH2O (0≤x≤0.5). Structural analysis, by employing Rietveld refinement of x-ray diffraction patterns, reveals a face centered cubic structure for all these co…

Cross-links are nowadays recognized to play a key role in the overall mechanical strength of buckypapers, nanotube or graphene based materials; material scientists or chemists are thus developing new nanomaterials with denser and stronger cross-links in order to maximize their mechanical strength. However, in spite of…

We report resistivity and thermo-electric power measurements of the anatase phase of TiO2under pressure up to 2.3 GPa. Despite its transparent appearance, the single crystal of anatase exhibits a metallic-like resistivity above 60 K, at all pressures. The rather high value of the thermo-electric power at room temperat…
