The wettability of glass substrates textured via aluminum-induced crystallization (AIC) of amorphous silicon (a-Si) was studied. It was found that a stable superhydrophilic surface could be produced by AIC of a-Si. This research suggests that densely distributed micron-sized silicon islands with nanoscale silicon spik…
We report experimental observation of electron (e −)/hole (h +) layer on the clean surface of insulating pure BaTiO3 single crystals in ultra high vacuum (UHV < 10−8 Pa). To our knowledge this is the first report of the bipolar surface carrier layer by the field effect on any oxide. The experiments here verify that bo…
A liquid quinary alloy with composition Ni–5%Cu–5%Fe–5%Sn–5%Ge has been prepared from a containerless state by undercooling. Dendritic growth of α-Ni phase took place with a velocity of 28 m s−1 at the maximum degree of undercooling, which was as high as 405 K (0.24T L). All of the four solute elements Cu, Fe, Sn and…
We performed a study of the temperature dependence of the dielectric response of (Ba,Sr)TiO 3 (BST) ceramics for the whole composition range in a wide frequency range by means of Fourier transform infrared, time-domain THz, microwave and low-frequency dielectric spectroscopy. Room-temperature spectra of the paraelectr…
We first time prepared Nd(3+) ions doped anodic aluminum oxide (Nd:AAO) templates, reported linear, sublinear and superlinear photoluminescence (PL) from Nd:AAO templates loaded with Ag nanowires in different excitation power regions, in which, the excitation laser with wavelength 805 nm resonantly pumped the populati…
A novel nanocage structure derived from carboxymethyl-β-cyclodextrins (CMCDs) intercalated in layered double hydroxides (LDHs), whose gates can be controlled by the process of swelling/drying the CMCD−LDH, has been prepared. Furthermore, the extent of opening of this nanocage structure can be controlled by swelling in…
Three isostructural Cu 2Ln 2 1-D polymers [Cu 2Ln 2L 10(H 2O) 4.3H 2O] n where Ln = Gd ( 1), Er ( 2), and Y ( 3) and HL= trans-2-butenoic acid, were synthesized and characterized by X-ray crystallography, electron paramagnetic resonance, and magnetic measurements. Pairs of alternate Cu 2 and Ln 2 dinuclear units are c…
We have studied the structural and magnetic properties of Ni(2)MnGa(1-x)B(x) Heusler alloys with 0≤x≤0.25 using x-ray diffraction, thermal expansion, electrical resistivity, and magnetization measurements. The magnetization measurements were made within the temperature interval of 5-400 K and at applied magnetic field…
Cyclohexane allowed to capillary condense from vapor in an annular wedge pore of mica in a surface force apparatus (SFA) remains liquid down to at least 14 K below the bulk melting-point T(m). This is an example of supercooling of a liquid due to confinement, like melting-point depression in porous media. In the wedge…
The critical behavior of the double perovskite La(2)NiMnO(6) was investigated by measurement of the magnetization around the Curie temperature T(C). The magnetic data were analyzed in the critical region using the Kouvel-Fisher method to yield the critical exponents of β = 0.408 ± 0.011 with T(C) = 270.50 (from the te…
Two new mesophases, a longitudinally correlated and a noncorrelated (columnar) hexagonal phase, were obtained for a polyphilic bolaamphiphile with laterally attached swallow-tail chains; the unique feature of these mesophases, which makes them distinct from previously reported LC phases, is the organization of rod-lik…
Backstresses or long range internal stresses (LRIS) in the past have been suggested by many to exist in plastically deformed crystalline materials. Elevated stresses can be present in regions of elevated dislocation density or dislocation heterogeneities in the deformed microstructures. The heterogeneities include edg…
Abstract In this paper, we introduce the concept of a “polymeric ruler” for investigating distance‐dependent emission behaviors of fluorophores, namely the quenching or enhancement of fluorescence, on flat Au surfaces in the range of 5 to ∼100 nm, which has not previously been easily accessible. The polymeric ruler is…
Tin sulfide films of 0.20 µm thickness were grown on glass and ITO substrates by the successive ionic layer adsorption and reaction (SILAR) method using SnSO 4 and Na 2 S solution. The as-grown films were well covered and strongly adherent to the substrate. XRD confirmed the deposition of SnS thin films and provided i…
The strategy to manipulate nanoscale building blocks into well-regulated hierarchical architectures is of great interest and valuable to both material synthesis and advanced nanodevices. Novel ZnO hierarchical structures with nanowire arrays connected on both faces of parallel ZnO hexagonal disks were produced in a fa…
Mesoporous silica nanofibers with tunable mesostructure (see image) are prepared in anodic aluminum oxide cationic-surfactant dual templates using vapor-deposition hydrolysis, which has merits in mass production. The microstructure of the mesoporous silica nanofibers changes from parallel to helical alignment as the a…
We combine electromechanical measurements with ab initio density-functional calculations to settle the controversy about the origin of torsion-induced conductance oscillations in multiwall carbon nanotubes. Contrary to intuition, the observed oscillation period in multiwall tubes exhibits the same inverse-squared diam…
Highly ordered mesoporous MgO catalysts with tunable pore size distribution and fairly good alkaline property were successfully obtained by a double replication procedure. Small-angle XRD, TEM, and nitrogen adsorption and desorption results show that these mesoporous MgO materials possess a highly ordered 2D hexagonal…
Abstract A one‐pot solution polymerization under mild conditions was adapted for the synthesis of well‐defined aliphatic‐aromatic polyesters with different degrees of branching. The esterification was performed at room temperature using 4,4‐bis(4′‐hydroxyphenyl)valeric acid (AB 2 ) and 3‐(4‐hydroxyphenyl)propionic aci…
Trifluoroacetic acid-catalyzed condensation of pyrrole with electron-deficient and sterically hindered 3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)benzaldehyde results in the unexpected production of a series of meso-3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)phenyl-substituted expanded porphyrins including [22]sapphyrin 2, N-fused [22]pentaphyrin 3, [26]h…
