Branching structure in carbon nanotubes (CNT) are of great importance in developing CNT-based mechanical or electrical applications. For this purpose, CNTs exhibiting two-dimensional and three-dimensional junctions are being sought. Among them, only two-dimensional branching structures of Y-junction and T-junction CNT…
Based on epitaxial layer transfer silicon on insulator wafers, crystalline Si/SiO2 quantum wells have been made. The chemical composition of the quantum wells was studied by Auger electron spectroscopy depth profile. The crystalline structure of the well was confirmed by x-ray photoelectron diffraction. Band-edge shif…
We calculated with ab initio methods the in-plane phonon deformation potentials of a graphite sheet. The two-dimensional Gr\"uneisen parameter is found to be $\ensuremath{\gamma}=2.0$ and the shear potential $(\mathrm{SDP})=0.66.$ The two values agree well with experimental results on graphite and on carbon nanotubes.
Nanostructured h-BN was prepared by mechanical milling under hydrogen atmosphere. The hydrogen concentration reaches up to 2.6 mass% after milling for 80 h, and this value corresponds to ca. 35% of that of nanostructured graphite as was previously reported. In addition to the hydrogen desorption starting at about 570…
1-Allyl-3-propylthiourea modified mesoporous silica has high adsorption capacity for mercury ions and its regeneration can be accomplished by washing with 10% thiourea in aqueous 0.05 M HCl.
β- PbO 2 nanobelts, with a rectangular cross section, a typical length of 10–200 μm, a width of 50–300 nm, and a width-to-thickness ratio of 5–10, have been successfully synthesized by simple elevated evaporation of commercial PbO powders at high temperature. The PbO2 nanobelts are enclosed by top surfaces ±(201) and…
We applied the recently developed technique of force-detected nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) to observe 71Ga, 69Ga, and 75As in GaAs. The nuclear spin-lattice relaxation time is 21$\pm$5 min for 69Ga at $\sim 5$ K and 4.6 Tesla. We have exploited this long relaxation time to first create and then observe spatially v…
The validity of fluctuation dissipation relations in an aging system is studied in a colloidal glass during the transition from a fluid-like to a solid-like state. The evolution of the rheological and electrical properties is analyzed in the range $1Hz - 40Hz$. It is found that at the beginning of the transition the f…
The effects of cell adhesion peptides (RGDS, KQAGDV, VAPG) on vascular smooth muscle cells grown on modified surfaces and in tissue-engineering scaffolds were examined. Cells were more strongly adhered to surfaces modified with adhesive ligands than to control surfaces (no ligand or a nonadhesive ligand). Cell migrati…
The structure of ZnO quantum dots prepared via the wet chemical method was studied. By introducing an annealing treatment (150 °C–500 °C), we also investigated the effect of the change in the structure of the dots on their luminescence properties. Our studies revealed that the surface of the as-prepared dots is passiv…

Al–Cu–Fe alloys were prepared from elemental powders in a high-energy planetary ball mill. A sequence of solid state reactions resulting in quasicrystal (QC) phase formation takes place during heating of the as-milled powder. These reactions were studied by both differential scanning calorimetry and x-ray diffraction…
The preparation of colloidal gold is a subject of practical interest in many technological fields. It is generally accomplished by reduction of HAuCl4 solution with sodium citrate which is known to be influenced by several factors such as temperature and reactants concentration. In the course of the present investigat…
Patterned films of a low-polydispersity polymer densely end-grafted on a silicon substrate were fabricated for the first time by the combined use of the Langmuir−Blodgett (LB) and the surface-initiated atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) techniques: a blend monolayer of 2-(4-chlorosulfonylphenyl)ethyltrimethox…
The thermal behavior of a low-defect kaolinite fully expanded with hydrazine-hydrate has been investigated in a nitrogen atmosphere at a constant, preset decomposition rate of 0.15 mg/min. Under controlled-rate thermal analysis (CRTA) conditions, it was possible to distinguish between loosely bonded (adsorbed) and str…

In situ small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) studies have been conducted to monitor the structural changes of sepiolite clay upon heating. The samples were heated first under nitrogen to establish the temperature at which pure sepiolite folds. Then, propylene was incorporated into the sepiolite channels and carbonized…
Thin films of alternating DNA and poly- l -lysine (PLL) layers were fabricated onto various planar surfaces by the layer-by-layer (LbL) self-assembly technique. For both the polydeoxynucleotide (PDN, polyguanylic acid or poly[G]) and the oligodeoxynucleotide (ODN, a 30-mer) investigated, UV−visible spectrometry and co…
Engineering models are presented in this paper to predict the penetration and perforation of a range of targets struck normally by projectiles with different nose shapes over a wide range of impact velocities. The projectiles are either rigid or eroding and the targets are made of metallic materials as well as other m…
Polyaryl ethers are a well known class of engineering thermoplastics. The aromatic portion of the poly(arylene ether) is believed to contribute to thermal stability and good mechanical properties o...
