The amide-group containing amphiphile 4-N-octanoyl-aminobenzoic acid sodium salt is able to thermoreversibly form supramolecular hydrogels in aqueous solutions of alkanine sodium salts. The supramolecular assemblies can be transferred without destruction by a mold-casting/drying process into self-supporting macroscopi…

Abstract An innovative way to improve fire‐retardant properties of different polymers by applying intumescent coatings on their surface has been studied. Two polymers have been investigated: polypropylene and polycarbonate. The surfaces were first subjected to a flaming treatment in order to clean them and to increase…

We report a doping-dependent electronic Raman-scattering measurements on iron-pnictide superconductor $\text{Ba}{({\text{Fe}}_{1\ensuremath{-}x}{\text{Co}}_{x})}_{2}{\text{As}}_{2}$ single crystals. The ${\text{B}}_{2g}$ Raman spectrum at optimal doping is consistent with a strongly anisotropic gap on the electron poc…

Abstract This work evaluates the behavior of sandwich and spaced plates subjected to high‐velocity impacts. The sandwich structures were made of glass/polyester face‐sheet and a PVC foam core. The spaced plates were made of two plates of the same material of the sandwich face‐sheet at a distance equal to the core thic…

The atomic force microscope fiber probe is used to directly measure the forces and friction between two human hairs under various conditions. It is shown that the forces between the hair fibers in solution can be well explained by a DLVO interaction and that cationic surfactant modifies the interactions in a manner en…

Abstract We report on the fabrication and optoelectronic properties of p‐n heterojunction arrays of p + ‐type Si and aligned n‐type SnO 2 nanowires with high rectification ratios of >10 4 at ±15 V. The electrical stability of the p‐n heterojunction devices was improved by coating the junction with poly(methylmethac…

A series of comb-like fluorinated poly(oxyethylene)s having different content of fluoroalkyl side group were prepared to examine the effect of the surface structure variation on the surface properties. When the thin films of the polymers having ≥58 mol % of fluoroalkyl side groups were annealed, surface energy decreas…

In comparison to the previous lengthy approaches, we described a general and simple strategy for engineering the superlattice assembly of IV-VI semiconductor nanocrystals (NCs) with tunable sizes and morphologies. Not only the well-studied spherical NCs but also some special-shaped NCs, such as the quasi-cubic, cubic,…

We describe a simple metamaterial homogenization procedure that calculates a limited set of constitutive parameters that are functions of both the frequency $\ensuremath{\omega}$ and the wave number $\mathbf{k}$. This procedure is based on describing the inclusions of the metamaterial with current sheets excited by th…

Abstract The Ti–Ni–W two‐phase shape memory alloy (SMA) thin film system is presented as a prototype for new SMAs with tailorable thermal transformation hysteresis (Δ T ). The concept is to combine the SMA TiNi with almost insoluble W to create the two‐phase system (TiNi)–( β ‐W). This system behaves like a pseudobina…
