Colossal magnetoresistive La0.7Sr0.3MnO3 thin films have been grown under tensile strains on (100)-SrTiO3 substrates and compressive strains on (100)-LaAlO3 and (110)-NdGaO3 substrates by pulsed laser deposition. Using magnetic force microscopy (MFM), a “feather-like” magnetic pattern, characteristic of films with an…
In the calculation of partial atomic charges, for use in molecular mechanics or dynamics simulations, it is common practice to select only a single conformation for the molecule of interest. For molecules that contain rotatable bonds, it is preferable to compute the charges from several relevant conformations. We pres…
An oxide thermoelectric device was fabricated using Gd-doped Ca3Co4O9 p-type legs and La-doped CaMnO3 n-type legs on a fin. The power factors of p legs and n legs were 4.8×10−4 Wm−1 K−2 and 2.2×10−4 Wm−1 K−2 at 700 °C in air, respectively. With eight p–n couples the device generated an output power of 63.5 mW under th…
Lanthanide ions have been doped into cobalt spinel ferrites using an oil-in-water micellar method to form CoLn0.12Fe1.88O4 nanoparticles with Ln=Ce, Sm, Eu, Gd, Dy, or Er. Doping with lanthanide ions (LnIII) modulates the magnetic properties of cobalt spinel ferrite nanoparticles. In particular cases of Gd3+ or Dy3+ i…
A molecular beam of manganese clusters, $\mathrm{Mn}{}_{n}$ $(n\phantom{\rule{0ex}{0ex}}=\phantom{\rule{0ex}{0ex}}11--99)$, produced at 68 K is deflected toward high field by a gradient field magnet. These results indicate that $\mathrm{Mn}{}_{n}$ clusters in this size range are superparamagnetic species whose intrins…
This letter describes the monolithic integration of rubber-stamped thin-film organic transistors with polymer-dispersed liquid crystals (PDLCs) to create a multipixel, flexible display with plastic substrates. We report the electro-optic switching behavior of the PDLCs as driven by the organic transistors, and we show…
Single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) were highly aligned by an external electric field. The results suggest that the alignment of SWCNTs shows significant dependencies on the frequency and the magnitude of the applied electric field. The electric field with 5 MHz straightened out the SWCNTs and created highly oriente…
Materials showing reversible resistive switching are attractive for today’s semiconductor technology with its wide interest in nonvolatile random-access memories. In doped SrTiO3 single crystals, we found a dc-current-induced reversible insulator–conductor transition with resistance changes of up to five orders of mag…
Magnetization of the compound LaFe11.4Si1.6 with the cubic NaZn13-type structure was measured as functions of temperature and magnetic field around its Curie temperature TC of ∼208 K. It is found that the magnetic phase transition at TC is completely reversible. Magnetic entropy change ΔS, allowing one to estimate the…
The combination of high sensitive superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) with high quality nanoparticles allowed to check the simplest classical model describing the magnetisation reversal by uniform rotation which were proposed more than 50 years ago by Neel, Stoner and Wohlfarth. The micrometer sized SQ…
Data on the gastrointestinal absorption of 12 elements have been reviewed. In each case, absorption is expressed as the fraction of the ingested element absorbed to blood, referred to as the f1 value, applying to intakes of unspecified chemical form by average population groups. The level of confidence in individual a…
We present a method for the synthesis of CdS and CdS x Se 1 - x nanocrystals by precipitation from a solution of cadmium carboxylate in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) with or without elemental S (Se). The reaction in the presence of hydrazine has also been investigated. The CdS particle size, determined by X-ray diffractio…
A Raman analysis was conducted to examine the disordered structures of poly(lactic acid). Simulated spectra were obtained for an ensemble of chains generated by several rotational isomeric state models. Analysis of the differences between simulated and experimental spectra showed that the rotational isomeric state rep…
Optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) from Al2O3:C (ALOC) irradiated with selected heavy ions (4He, 12C, 40Ar, and 56Fe) was examined for discussion on the effectiveness of ALOC for space radiation protection dosimetry. The OSL efficiency on the absorbed dose basis was almost unity for He (LETinfinity x H2O: 2.2 keV…
A direct in-situ visualization of montmorillonite gels at 50 g/L has been obtained for the first time, using silicon fluorescence yield imaging at the ESRF ID21 X-ray microscopy line. An unexpected superstructure formed by alternating clay-rich and clay-poor domains was evidenced with mesoscopic orientational order. T…
A new, low-cost fiber glass supported activated carbon (FGAC) filter has been prepared that displays enhanced adsorption characteristics for the removal of BTEX (benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and p-xylene) from water to below maximum contaminant level (MCL) regulated by USEPA and two chemical warfare agent simulants…
Small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) experiments with in situ dehydration have been performed on small bundles of flax fibers. Analysis indicated that the structure of the cellulose microfibrils is consistent with a cross section of approximately 10 x 50 A2. The microfibril misalignment was Gaussian with a full width a…
We investigate the plasmon resonances of interacting silver nanowires with a 50 nm diameter. Both non-touching and intersecting configurations are investigated. While individual cylinders exhibit a single plasmon resonance, we observe much more complex spectra of resonances for interacting structures. The number and m…
The adsorption of CO and CO 2 on tetragonal and monoclinic ZrO 2 was investigated using infrared spectroscopy and temperature-programmed desorption spectroscopy. For this study, samples were prepared of tetragonal ZrO 2 (t-ZrO 2 ) with surface areas of 20 and 187 m 2 /g and of monoclinic ZrO 2 (m-ZrO 2 ) with surface…
Bi–Sb single crystals (with Sb concentration varied up to 30 at. %) have been subjected to impact loading in the form of dynamic indentation on their (111) cleavage planes. The resulting mechanical twins are the theme of this report. The tensile and compressive stresses developed by the spherical indenter employed hav…
