A simple, plasma-based, low-temperature etch process was developed for the subtractive etching of copper (Cu) films. Hydrogen (H 2 ) plasma etching of Cu thin films was performed in an inductively coupled plasma (ICP) reactor at temperatures below room temperature. This process achieved anisotropic Cu features and an…

Abstract The synthesis and spectral properties are reported of a set of four europium(III) complexes containing between one and four 3‐azaxanthone sensitising chromophores. Each complex is based on a macrocyclic cyclen core. The emission and aqueous solution 1H NMR spectral properties are compared, revealing informati…

Abstract Surface‐initiated atom transfer radical polymerization (SI‐ATRP) of N‐isopropylacrylamide (NIPAM) on silicon wafer in the presence of 2‐mercaptoethanol (ME) chain transfer agent was conducted in attempt to create controllable hydroxyl‐terminated brushes. The initiator‐immobilized substrate, was prepared by th…

Changing the morphology of the growing surface and the nature of residual impurities in (Ge,Mn) layers dramatically changes nanospinodal decomposition, i.e., the morphology of ferromagnetic Mn-rich inclusions. By this way, we are able to control the magnetotransport properties of (Ge,Mn) films. By using different subs…

High resolution while maintaining high peak reflectivities can be achieved for Lamellar Multilayer Amplitude Gratings (LMAG) in the soft-x-ray (SXR) region. Using the coupled waves approach (CWA), it is derived that for small lamellar widths only the zeroth diffraction order needs to be considered for LMAG performance…

The effect of polymer functionalization on the two-dimensional (2-D) assembly of uniform as well as highly asymmetric binary colloidal mixtures with both neutral and incompatible polymer grafts is presented. In ordered assemblies of uniform particle brush systems, the observed size-segregation is analogous to that of…

We have observed layer-by-layer epitaxial growth mode of MgO (111) films on yttrium stabilized zirconia (111) substrates with NiO buffer layers by pulsed laser deposition despite a strong electrostatic instability of the [111] polar growth direction. Layer-by-layer growth has been realized up to $\ensuremath{\sim}10$…

First-principles total energy calculations are performed to investigate the formation and structures of Pt clusters on graphene. It is found that the formation energy of Pt on graphene increases with increasing Pt coverage. The structures of the absorbed Pt are that it is at the bridge site for a single Pt atom absorp…

Abstract The effect of the low angle grain boundary structure on the mechanical properties and deformation behavior was investigated using Mg‐Al‐Zn alloys, which were produced by caliber rolling. The {10–12} deformation twins were formed at the head of the crack‐tip during fracture toughness even in the fine‐grained s…

Chlorinated carbon nanotubes (CNT-Cl) and its combination with Ni 2 O 3 were used to prepare polypropylene (PP) composites via melt mixing. The cone calorimetry and TGA results showed that both the flame retardancy and the thermal stability of the composites containing CNT-Cl were better than the samples containing un…

We show that, in antiferromagnetic superconductors, the optical spectral weight transferred to low frequencies below the superconducting transition temperature originates from energies that can be much larger than twice the superconducting gap $\ensuremath{\Delta}$. This contrasts to nonmagnetic superconductors, where…

ABSTRACT Epoxidation is a very useful reaction in organic synthesis. Due to the high reactivity of the epoxide group it can be used as an active intermediate for the synthesis of many high‐value products. Epoxides are commercial products and they have many industrial uses. Understanding the kinetics of epoxidation rea…

This contribution is addressing an issue named in signal processing. Let be a lattice and be the dual lattice. Then the standard Shannon–Nyquist theorem says that any signal f whose Fourier transform is supported by a compact subset can be recovered from the samples if and only if the translated sets are pairwise disj…

We report on measurements and a detailed analysis of the reversible magnetization of superconducting ${\text{NbSe}}_{2}$ single crystals. By comparing the experimental data with Ginzburg Landau theory we show that superconductivity in ${\text{NbSe}}_{2}$ cannot be explained by an anisotropic single-band but by a multi…

We report electronic-structure and lattice dynamics calculations on selected III-VII, ${\text{IV-VII}}_{2}$, and ${\text{V-VII}}_{3}$ compounds. The common characteristic of these largely ionic compounds is that their outmost cation-$s$ states are fully occupied and thus the conduction-band states are derived from the…
