We prepared robust cross-linked (x-linked) multilayer films under visible light irradiation with the catalysis of a Ru(ii) complex. The x-linking is achieved by the coupling reaction between phenol group and primary amine group within the self-assembled multilayer films that were prepared beforehand. Three kinds of po…

We perform Monte Carlo simulations to analyze the equilibrium dynamics and the long-time structural relaxation decay of columnar liquid crystals of disk-like colloidal particles. In the wake of recent studies on the columnar mesophase of hard calamitic (rod-like) colloids, we now focus on the diffusion of their discot…

It has been reported that tablets of clarithromycin (CAM), a 14-membered macrolide antibiotic, are especially stable under low pH conditions such as in gastric fluid, and showed excellent antibacterial efficiency even though CAM molecules themselves are rapidly decomposed. Therefore, we aimed to clarify the stabilizat…

Novel phosphors of BaLa 2–x Bi x ZnO 5 exhibiting an emission in the blue region have been synthesized using a vibrating milled solid state reaction with metal oxides. The x-ray diffraction pattern indicates that all of the peaks can be attributed to the single phase. A double exponential decay behavior was observed i…

Low-temperature scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy have been employed to analyze the local electronic structure of the (111) surface of a ceria thin film grown on Ru(0001). On pristine, defect-free oxide terraces, the empty 4f states of Ce(4+) ions appear as the only spectral feature inside the 6 eV oxide…

A facile strategy has been successfully developed to fabricate hollow crosslinked polyphosphazene submicrospheres. The mean diameter of interior cavities can be well adjusted (typically in a range from 100 to 300 nm). Interestingly, there are plenty of uniform mesopores distributing in the organic-inorganic hybrid she…

The reversible hydrogen storage/release phenomena on a lithium–fullerene composite of lithium fulleride (LinC60) were reported. NMR analyses revealed that LiH and C60Hn were formed after hydrogen storage. Molecular hydrogen was stored as a proton (H+) incorporated with C60 and a hydride (H−) incorporated with a Li ion.

A mechanistic study regarding the synthesis of aromatic polyimides (PIs) under hydrothermal conditions is presented. We demonstrate evidence that the first step of the reaction is the formation of a nylon type salt, which can be isolated. Upon heating the salt in the presence of water at 180 °C, polyimides are formed…
