Syndiotactic polypropylene (sPP) was melt-quenched in an ice−water bath and directly drawn at 0 °C up to a draw ratio of 6. The oriented sample was kept in the cold bath for 10 days under tension, and then analyzed at room temperature either fixed or after releasing tension. The fully extended fiber showed by X-ray di…

A series of partially fluorinated (C 6 F 13 H-modified) polystyrene- b -1,2-polybutadiene (PS- b -1,2-PB) copolymers were prepared by the reaction of a model PS- b -1,2-PB copolymer with n -C 6 F 13 I followed by substitution of hydrogen for the iodine by hydrogenolysis. The morphologies and domain spacings of the ord…

Thermoplastic vulcanizates (TPVs) prepared by dynamic vulcanization are blends in which cross-linked rubber particles are finely dispersed in a thermoplastic matrix. These blend materials, which are in our case based on nylon-6 and EPDM rubber, show excellent strain recovery behavior, even though the matrix consists o…

Computer modeling of the variable-range-hopping (VRH) conductivity in two-dimensional systems has been done by a kinetic Monte Carlo method, which includes some new elements. Study of the temperature dependence of the conductivity, testing of the different scaling relations, and study of the size effect show the detai…

The role of proteins in biomineralization and the mechanism of eggshell formation are not well understood. We have isolated and purified the major protein, ansocalcin from goose eggshell matrix. The amino acid sequence study indicates that ansocalcin is homologous to the chicken eggshell protein, ovocleidin 17, and C-…

Tunneling junctions of stacked monolayers of uniform, organically functionalized ${\mathrm{Fe}}_{3}{\mathrm{O}}_{4}$ nanocrystals of 5.5 nm average diameter were prepared. Current-voltage characteristics of the junctions were studied as function of temperature and magnetic field. An abrupt increase in the resistance w…

We have constructed microscopic, structurally relaxed atomistic models of $\mathrm{Si}/{\mathrm{SiO}}_{2}$ superlattices. The structural distortion and oxidation-state characteristics of the interface Si atoms are examined in detail. The role played by the interface Si suboxides in raising the band gap and producing d…

Diffuse neutron scattering is a valuable tool to obtain information about the size and orientation of the polar nanoregions that are a characteristic feature of relaxor ferroelectrics. In this paper, we present new diffuse scattering results obtained on Pb(Zn1/3Nb2/3)O3 (PZN for short) and (1-x)Pb(Zn1/3Nb2/3)O3-xPbTiO…

The wave function and binding energy for shallow donors in GaAs are calculated within the tight binding (TB) approach, for supercells containing up to two million atoms. The resulting solutions, coupled with a scaling law, allow extrapolation to the bulk limit. A sharp shallow-deep transition is obtained as the impuri…

The experimental and theoretical challenges posed by the study of dynamically inhomogeneous systems are outlined in the context of cuprates and other oxides. Considering the pitfalls in the single-component approach to the analysis of inhomogeneous systems, the effect of either temporal or spatial averaging by differe…

Since their introduction in 1985 by Tomalia et al. (1) and Newkome et al. (2), dendrimers have attracted much attention because of their fascinating structure and unique properties (3, 4). Dendrimers are globular, size monodisperse macromolecules in which all bonds emerge radially from a central focal point or core wi…

Fine structures in electron energy-loss spectra, observed 30-40 eV beyond the threshold of oxygen K-edges in perovskite-type manganites BiMnO3 and LaMnO3, are discussed. LaMnO3 with orthorhombic symmetry (space group Pbnm) shows a clear peak in this region. However, BiMnO3 with a heavily distorted perovskite-type stru…
