Low-temperature suppression of nonlinear losses leads to improvement in nanosecond lasing threshold of self-assembled oligophenyl nanofibers by two orders of magnitude. Laser dynamics is revealed by time-resolved photoluminescence excited by femtosecond and nanosecond pulses. Strategies are discussed to extend low-thr…

We investigated the bias polarity dependence of the characteristics of a phase change memory device and found that the device showed higher resistance both at programed and erased states, extended erasing time, and higher threshold voltage (Vth) under negative bias than those under the conventional positive bias. Taki…

Spin-on pure-silica-zeolite or Silicalite films are currently considered as outstanding low-k materials because of their stiffness and ultralow dielectric constant. It is shown that spin-on Silicalite films with low k values unavoidably contain cavities tens of nanometers wide, representing a considerable challenge in…

Abstract In this paper, we report the electrochemical formation of the InP porous nanostructures and their feasibility for the application to the amperometric chemical sensors. Our two step electrochemical process consists of the pore formation on a (001) n‐type InP substrate and the subsequent etching of pore walls c…

Exchange bias is conventionally induced between a ferromagnet and an antiferromagnet where the Curie temperature (TC) considerably exceeds the Neel temperature (TN). Under these circumstances, cooling the bilayer in sufficient field to saturate the ferromagnet is sufficient to induce a finite bias below the blocking t…

Abstract A series of polymer stabilized cholesteric liquid crystal (PSCLC) cells were prepared by photo‐polymerization of a cholesteric liquid crystal (Ch‐LC) mixture containing a nonreactive LC, a nematic diacrylate and a novel cholesteryl monomer. The influence of the specific rotation and concentration of the chira…

Abstract Carbon black nanoparticle grafted with poly( N ‐isopropylacrylamide) (CB‐ g ‐PNIPAAm) was synthesized by surface‐initiated atom transfer radical polymerization (SI‐ATRP). The temperature‐responsive behavior of CB‐ g‐ PNIPAAm was proved by temperature‐variable 1 H NMR. A temperature‐dependent conductive compos…

We present a new modeling procedure for magnetic components based on finite-element analysis (FEA). The method can be applied to RM cores. The main advantage of this procedure is that it allows the actual nonlinear component response to be obtained by taking into account the core saturation effect from only a 2-D simu…

The microstructure evolution during a liquid-liquid phase transformation was calculated. The effect of convections on the microstructure development was investigated. The results demonstrate that the convective flow against the solidification direction causes an increase in the local nucleation rate. Convections lead…

The linewidth of the plasmon absorption of a gold nanoshell was theoretically studied by using a Drude model and quasistatic approximation. Increasing the dielectric constant of the core or surrounding can broaden the absorption peak linearly. A mechanism based on the polarization direction of the local electric field…

ZnCoO:H nanocrystals are weak ferromagnetic at room temperature with a small coercivity and a small remanence, whereas ZnCoO nanocrystals are paramagnetic. The thermal irreversibility of zero-field cooling and field cooling magnetizations of ZnCoO:H nanocrystals corresponds to the existence of superparamagnetism due t…
