The electrical conductivity of a two-dimensional structurally anisotropic model for a composite is considered. The model represents an isotropic matrix with a system of nonconducting inclusions in the form of infinitely thin straight line segments (scratches). The scratches make an angle θ or −θ with a preferred axis…

Titanium oxide (TiO2) nanofibers were formed by calcination of poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA)Ti lactate hybrid precursor nanofibers in air. The fiber diameters of the PVA-Ti lactate hybrid nanofibers were 200-350 nm, and the fiber diameters of the TiO2 nanofibers were 7080% of those of the PVA-Ti lactate hybrid nanofibers.…

Molecular-beam epitaxy grown, 5 nm thick annealed Ga0.95Mn0.05As films demonstrate transition from metallic to insulating state for sheet resistances near resistance quantum, which we connect with the two-dimensional hole localization. Below the metal-insulator transition we found the giant anisotropic magnetoresistan…

Abstract The novel phenomena of irreversible changes in structure and main physical properties of FINEMET and Metglas amorphous metallic alloys (AMA) after low-temperature treatment (LTT) (so called ΔT effect) are studied theoretically and experimentally. It is shown theoretically that the cooling process in AMA durin…

Enhancing the operation life time or the electrochemical durability is one of the key issues in electrochromic material studies. It is generally accepted that the inorganic–organic hybrid structure is one of the effective ways to enhance the chemical stability of the material. In this study, an electrochromic film mad…

The wetting properties of the material can be altered by changing the surface topography. We have demonstrated the controlling of the wetting properties of the metal surface by texturing it using femtosecond laser ablation. Contact angles well above 150 degrees can be obtained to the steel sample using self-organized…

Smectitic clay minerals are frequently identified in mangrove soils, but there is little information about their types and origins. Besides their importance in the agronomical and geotechnical areas, smectites play an important environmental role by adsorbing nutrients, organic pollutants and heavy metals. Smectites f…

Infrared emission has been observed for the nitrogen-vacancy (NV −) colour centre in diamond, in addition to the characteristic red emission of this centre [1]. However, this infrared emission zero-phonon line at 1046 nm is about four orders of magnitude weaker than the red emission. This is somewhat surprising, as a…

Two series of poly(ester urethane) (PUR) elastomers, containing poly(?-caprolactone) diol of Mn=2000 as soft segments were synthesized. In each series the same diisocyanate in hard segment, i.e., 1,6-hexamethylenediisocyanate was used in the same content. The PUR polymers were prepared in two-step polymerization in th…

A formula for making paint was developed using waste expanded polystyrene foam (EPS) as a binder. This method replaces the alkyd resin in most commercial paint, which is derived from the byproducts of refining crude oil. Experimental results showed that 27% waste polystyrene foam can be incorporated in the paint formu…

Previously, iron—silicon alloys were investigated using X-ray diffraction and Mössbauer spectroscopy. It was demonstrated that, at low silicon concentrations, the alloys undergo a local separation into regions of the α iron phase depleted in silicon and silicon-rich clusters with a B 2 ordering. The structure of local…
