A novel effect of n pi* aromatic ketones on the quantum dots optical properties is reported. By controlling experimental conditions such as time of irradiation, presence of air in the media, hydrogen donor capacity of the solvent, and irradiation wavelength, core and core-shell CdSe QDs can be resized as convenient.

We examined the effect of an antireflection (AR) coating to enhance the TM transmittance of the wire-grid polarizer. The polarization transmission spectra were calculated using the rigorous coupled-wave analysis. As a result, we verified that an AR film should be inserted between a wire-grid and a Si substrate as rega…

${\text{CoFe}}_{2}{\text{O}}_{4}/{\text{Fe}}_{3}{\text{O}}_{4}$ bilayers represent an unusual exchange-coupled system whose properties are due to the nature of the oxide-oxide superexchange interactions at the interface. In this work, we analyze the magnetization reversal behavior and magnetic interface structure usin…

Abstract The frequency dependent dielectric relaxation behavior of conductive carbon black reinforced chlorosulfonated polyethylene (CSM) vulcanizates has been studied for different filler loadings in the frequency range of 10 2 –10 6 Hz over a wide range of temperatures (30–120°C). The effects of filler loadings on t…

Double perovskites such as Sr2FeMoO6 (SFMO) have been predicted to be half-metallic (100% spin polarized). However, this conclusion is reached under the assumption that SFMO has a perfect crystalline structure. We measure the values of spin polarization P for SFMO single crystals with 11%, 15%, and 16% of B-site disor…

Polythiophene−magnetite composite layers have been prepared through the electropolymerization of 3-thiophene-acetic-acid in the presence of Fe 3 O 4 nanoparticles in nitrobenzene. Stabilization of magnetite in this organic medium could be achieved by the reaction between surface −OH groups of the nanoparticles and the…

On the basis of a quasi-static theory, the sensitivity of surface plasmon resonance to the refractive index of the surrounding medium is investigated for gold nanoboxes with fixed inner edge length. It is found that the refractive index sensitivity increases near-exponentially as the wall thickness is decreased. Howev…
