Abstract A series of novel dendrimers composed of dendritic phenylazomethines (DPAs) were synthesized with several types of functional cores. The metal assembling to the DPAs is stepwise by the layers, therefore, they can be used as a scaffold for the precise hybridization between metal ions and organic macromolecules…

Eight-coordinate hydroxypyridinone/terephthalamide GdIII complexes display high relaxivities due to their two inner sphere water molecules. This relaxivity can be further increased by functionalizing the terephthalamide moiety with an amine. A significant hydrogen bonding interaction between the amine and another wate…

Using the general coupled-mode formulation, it is shown that the interaction between a regular transmission line and a negative-refractive-index (NRI) line leads to complex coupled modes. Specifically the coupling between a regular microstrip (MS) and a NRI line is analyzed and the theory reveals conditions giving ris…

The effect of the diameter of an insulator covered with ice on its flashover voltage was investigated. The insulator diameter was simulated and varied by controlling the width of a layer of ice artificially accreted on a short string of 5 IEEE standard units. The 50% withstand voltage (V/sub 50/) was experimentally de…
