Dithiadiazuliporphyrin is a nonaromatic porphyrinoid, readily and reversibly oxidizable to its cation radical and to the unprecedented aromatic carbaporphyrinoid dication, which can be viewed as a 21,23-dicarba-22,24-dithiaporphyrin with two fused tropylium rings.

Having the lowest work function in the rare-earth hexaboride family, GdB6 nanowires of rectangular cross-section with about 50 nm in lateral dimension and several microns in length have been successfully produced using a CVD method. The nanowires are grown in the 001 lattice direction, and both the tip-top and the sid…

Hollow shell nanostructures have numerous potential applications due to their interesting optical and electronic properties, which can be tuned by varying their shape, size, and shell thickness. In this paper we describe a simple galvanic replacement reaction (transmetalation reaction) involving sacrificial silver nan…

Nanotube functionalization with 4-hydroxymethylaniline (HMA) via the diazonium salt method has been done on SWNT produced by the CoMoCAT process. Thermal analysis indicates 1 out of every 33 C atoms remains functionalized. Raman, FTIR, and optical absorption spectroscopy confirm the side-wall functionalization and sho…

We report here the structure of complexes made of proteins (lysozyme, positively charged) and polyelectrolytes (PSSNa, negatively charged). We stay in conditions where the volume fractions of the components are of the same order and where PSS concentrations correspond to a semidilute regime. The final complexes struct…

We report a new method to control both the nucleation and growth of highly porous polyaniline (PANI) nanofiber films using porous poly(styrene-block-2-vinylpyridine) diblock copolymer (PS-b-P2VP) films as templates. A micellar thin film composed of P2VP spheres within a PS matrix is prepared by spin coating a PS-b-P2V…

Mechanical properties of ZnS nanobelts were measured at room temperature by direct nanoindentation experiments. It was found that the ZnS nanobelts achieve 79% increase in hardness but 52% decrease in elastic modulus compared to bulk ZnS. The nanobelts were found to exhibit creep under indentation. Indentation crackin…

We introduce a new method based on the first-order-reversal-curve (FORC) diagram to extract the intrinsic (microscopic) switching-field distribution (SFD) of perpendicular recording media (PRM). To demonstrate the viability of the method, we micromagnetically simulated FORCs for PRM with known SFD and compare the extr…

Photoswitching of the intramolecular magnetic interaction was demonstrated using diarylethenes with 2,5-bis(arylethynyl)-4-methyl-3-thienyl side group. Two nitroxide radicals were placed at each end of the 2,5-bis(arylethynyl)-4-methyl-3-thienyl group. Three kinds of aryl groups, 2,5-thienylene, p-phenylene, and m-phe…

Multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) (diameter range, 10−20 nm) were functionalized with 4-methoxybenzoic acid and 4-ethoxybenzoic acid via a Friedel−Crafts reaction in polyphosphoric acid to afford methoxybenzoyl- and ethoxybenzoyl-functionalized MWNTs. As-received MWNT, methoxybenzoyl-functionalized (MeO-MWNT), and…

Cryptomelane-type K-OMS-2 nanomaterials with high surface area (156 m 2 /g) have been synthesized via a low-temperature solvent-free method in a very short time (1 h). Field emission scanning electron microscopy and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy images reveal that these materials have nanorod morpho…

In this work, a model is proposed for the estimation of the adsorption parameters from TPD thermograms when the adsorption cell can be modeled as a well-mixed reactor, evaluating the adsorption and desorption rate constants from statistical thermodynamics. The estimation procedure consists of fitting the model to the…

Abstract The synthesis of (per)fluoropolyether phosphate esters prepared by the reaction of phosphorus pentoxide and fluorinated alcohols has been investigated. The reactivity strongly depends on the structure of the fluorinated alcohol, generally decreasing with increasing acidity. Moreover, the addition of a modulat…
