The effect of soft X-ray irradiation of diamond-like carbon films in vacuum was investigated using synchrotron radiation (SR). Etching and the desorption of hydrogen upon SR exposure in vacuum occurred in highly hydrogenated diamond-like carbon (H-DLC) films; these processes were not observed in the irradiation of a l…

Abstract The present study deals with the creation of so‐called “recovery stresses” in SMA wires. Two approaches are developed. First, experiments are performed on nickel‐titanium wires with suitable transformation temperatures. The wires are stretched in the martensite state at ambient temperature. A thermal cycle at…

Grafts of biological tissues have been used since the 1960s as an alternative to the mechanical heart prostheses. Nowadays, the most consolidated treatment to bovine pericardial (BP) bioprostheses is the crosslinking with glutaraldehyde (GA), although GA may induce calcification in vivo. In previous work, our group de…

Multigraphene films grown by sublimation on the surface of a semi-insulating 6 H -SiC substrate have been studied. It is shown that pregrowth annealing of the substrate in a quasiclosed growth cell improves the structural quality of a multigraphene film. Ohmic contacts to the film have been fabricated, and the Hall ef…

Abstract The performance of Zr1NbSnFe alloys within the range of Sn 0–0.65 % and Fe 0.03–0.35 % were studied through irradiation of fuel rods in two pressurized water reactors (PWRs) operating with significantly different fuel management strategies. Material test rod irradiations have also been launched in order to de…

We fabricated, in a polymer matrix, liquid crystal (LC) nanosized droplets with a correlation length ξ of about 140 nm, which appear as an optically isotropic film. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and light scattering measurements gave unambiguous evidences of an existence of nematic LC (NLC) order and fluctua…

We investigated the image-sticking phenomenon of polymer-sustained-alignment liquid crystal displays (PSA-LCDs) by the evaluation of residual DC and the difference in tilt angle. Experimental results indicate that the difference in tilt angle affects the image sticking of PSA-LCDs more than the residual DC. We also fo…

The structures of Pt clusters on nitrogen-, boron-, silicon- doped graphenes are theoretically studied using density-functional theory. These dopants (nitrogen, boron and silicon) each do not induce a local curvature in the graphene and the doped graphenes all retain their planar form. The formation energy of the sili…

Major problems with biological heart valves post-implantation are associated with progressive structural deterioration and calcification attributed to glutaraldehyde processing, dead cells, and cell fragments present in the native tissue. In spite of these problems, glutaraldehyde still is the reagent of choice. The r…
