In this work, a superhydrophilic polypyrrole (PPy) nanofiber network is electrochemically synthesized in an aqueous solution by using phosphate buffer solution (PBS) in the absence of templates, surfactants and structure-directing molecules. FESEM, X-ray diffraction, UV−visible absorption, and contact angle measuremen…

Giant dielectric permittivity (Li, Ti)-doped NiO (LTNO) ceramics are prepared by a simple PVA sol–gel method. The dielectric properties are investigated as a function of frequency (10 2 –10 6 Hz) at different temperatures (233–473 K). The concentration of Li has a remarkable effect on the dielectric properties of the…

First-principles calculations show that the electronic structure of graphene on ${\text{SiO}}_{2}$ strongly depends on the surface polarity and interface geometry. Surface dangling bonds mediate the coupling to graphene and can induce hole or electron doping via charge transfer even in the absence of extrinsic impurit…

A newly developed fast molecular dynamics method is applied to ${\text{BaTiO}}_{3}$ ferroelectric thin-film capacitors with short-circuited electrodes or under applied voltage. The molecular dynamics simulations based on a first-principles effective Hamiltonian clarify that dead layers (or passive layers) between ferr…

An effort is made to study the contrast in magnetic behavior resulting from minimal disorder introduced by substitution of 2.5% Ga or Al in Mn-site of La${_{0.9}}$Sr$_{0.1}$MnO${_3}$. It is considered that Ga or Al selectively creates disorder within the orbital domains or on its walls, causing enhancement of Griffith…

Critical curves "critical current - external magnetic field" of long Josephson junctions with inhomogeneity and variable width are studied. We demonstrate the existence of the regions of magnetic field where some fluxon states are stable only, if the external current through the junction is different from zero. Positi…

The effect of cobalt and nickel substitutions for manganese on the physical properties of the perovskite manganite La1.2Bi0.8Mn2-x(Ni/Co)xO6+d, with x = 0.0-0.8, has been investigated. It is observed that the ferromagnetism is enhanced, TC being increased from 103 K for the parent compound (x = 0.0) to 178 K for Ni-ph…

Using a combination of vertical transport measurements across and lateral transport measurements along the LaAlO$_{3}$/SrTiO$_{3}$ heterointerface, we demonstrate that significant potential barrier lowering and band bending are the cause of interfacial metallicity. Barrier lowering and enhanced band bending extends ov…

The coupling with the lattice vibrations is shown to drastically modify the state-of-the-art picture of the excitonic states based on a frozen-atom approximation. The zero-point vibrations renormalize the bare energies and optical strengths. Excitons acquire a nonradiative lifetime that decreases with increasing tempe…

The pharmaceutical co-crystal approach has been introduced recently to address poor physicochemical properties of new chemical entities. In this study we prepared and investigated ten co-crystals of AMG 517. Based on thermal analysis, 1 H NMR and p K a values we have prepared co-crystals rather than solvates or salts.…

Direct measurement of the remanent polarization of high quality (001)-oriented epitaxial BiFeO3 thin films shows a strong strain dependence, even larger than conventional (001)-oriented PbTiO3 films. Thermodynamic analysis reveals that a strain-induced polarization rotation mechanism is responsible for the large chang…
