The dihydroisoindole strategy for the synthesis of linearly annelated π-extended porphyrins is a common approach to tetrabenzo-, tetranaphtho-, and tetraanthraporphyrins with variable functionality and substitution patterns. This method implies the use of a common type of precursors involving the 4,7-dihydroisoindole…

We study the state of a nanometric helium bubble in bcc-iron as a function of temperature and He content using atomistic calculations. It appears that up to moderate temperatures the Fe lattice can confine He to solid state, in good agreement with known solid-liquid transition diagram of pure He. However, He in the bu…

Ab initio evolutionary algorithm was employed to resolve the crystal structure of the observed superhard BC2N. We uncovered two polymorphs with rhombohedral (2 f.u./cell) and orthorhombic (2 f.u./cell) symmetries, with which the experimental x-ray diffraction pattern is well reproduced. Analysis of the total energy re…

We experimentally demonstrated the amplification of optical disk readout signals by homodyne detection. This technique uses optical interference to amplify the signals. We further applied phase-diversity detection to reliably obtain the amplified readout signal. The optical system was carefully designed so that a suff…

Four novel nonsymmetric dimers containing azobenzene mesogenic groups were synthesized. The nonsymmetric dimers compounds namely, ethyl 4-[(4-{4-(4-((4-nitrophenyl)diazenyl)phenoxy)alkyloxy}phenyl)diazenyl]benzoate were obtained from the alkylation of ethyl 4-[(4-(4-bromoalkyloxy)phenyl)diazenyl]benzoate with 4-[(4-ni…

The low-temperature minimum of the resistivity of La0.85Ag0.15MnO3 is investigated in detail. Analysis of the experimental data shows that the observed low-temperature minimum of the zero-field resistivity and the large magnetoresistive effect, which increases with decreasing temperature, can be explained in a model o…

For some years ceramic bearing balls based on silicon nitride have been routinely used in technical practice. An important property of bearing balls is their strength, but appropriate testing methods are still missing. In this paper four different methods for strength testing are applied to commercial bearing balls. E…

Polypyrrole formation initiated by UV/VIS irradiation and stabilization of (CdSe)ZnS quantum dots is reported. Presented results demonstrate that UV/VIS irradiation is slowly destructing Q-dots that decreases quantum yield and shifts peak of photoluminescence (PL) spectra to short wavelength range. The same Q-dot solu…
