Hollow shell nanostructures have numerous potential applications due to their interesting optical and electronic properties, which can be tuned by varying their shape, size, and shell thickness. In this paper we describe a simple galvanic replacement reaction (transmetalation reaction) involving sacrificial silver nan…
Nanotube functionalization with 4-hydroxymethylaniline (HMA) via the diazonium salt method has been done on SWNT produced by the CoMoCAT process. Thermal analysis indicates 1 out of every 33 C atoms remains functionalized. Raman, FTIR, and optical absorption spectroscopy confirm the side-wall functionalization and sho…
We report here the structure of complexes made of proteins (lysozyme, positively charged) and polyelectrolytes (PSSNa, negatively charged). We stay in conditions where the volume fractions of the components are of the same order and where PSS concentrations correspond to a semidilute regime. The final complexes struct…
We report a new method to control both the nucleation and growth of highly porous polyaniline (PANI) nanofiber films using porous poly(styrene-block-2-vinylpyridine) diblock copolymer (PS-b-P2VP) films as templates. A micellar thin film composed of P2VP spheres within a PS matrix is prepared by spin coating a PS-b-P2V…
Mechanical properties of ZnS nanobelts were measured at room temperature by direct nanoindentation experiments. It was found that the ZnS nanobelts achieve 79% increase in hardness but 52% decrease in elastic modulus compared to bulk ZnS. The nanobelts were found to exhibit creep under indentation. Indentation crackin…
We introduce a new method based on the first-order-reversal-curve (FORC) diagram to extract the intrinsic (microscopic) switching-field distribution (SFD) of perpendicular recording media (PRM). To demonstrate the viability of the method, we micromagnetically simulated FORCs for PRM with known SFD and compare the extr…
Photoswitching of the intramolecular magnetic interaction was demonstrated using diarylethenes with 2,5-bis(arylethynyl)-4-methyl-3-thienyl side group. Two nitroxide radicals were placed at each end of the 2,5-bis(arylethynyl)-4-methyl-3-thienyl group. Three kinds of aryl groups, 2,5-thienylene, p-phenylene, and m-phe…
Multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) (diameter range, 10−20 nm) were functionalized with 4-methoxybenzoic acid and 4-ethoxybenzoic acid via a Friedel−Crafts reaction in polyphosphoric acid to afford methoxybenzoyl- and ethoxybenzoyl-functionalized MWNTs. As-received MWNT, methoxybenzoyl-functionalized (MeO-MWNT), and…
Cryptomelane-type K-OMS-2 nanomaterials with high surface area (156 m 2 /g) have been synthesized via a low-temperature solvent-free method in a very short time (1 h). Field emission scanning electron microscopy and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy images reveal that these materials have nanorod morpho…
We present our results of an accurate and detailed study of the structural and transport properties of the recently proposed Haeckelite carbon nanotubes (HCNs) using the generalized tight-binding molecular dynamics scheme. The quantum conductance and the current vs voltage $(I\text{\ensuremath{-}}V)$ curves for the HC…
In this work, a model is proposed for the estimation of the adsorption parameters from TPD thermograms when the adsorption cell can be modeled as a well-mixed reactor, evaluating the adsorption and desorption rate constants from statistical thermodynamics. The estimation procedure consists of fitting the model to the…
Abstract The synthesis of (per)fluoropolyether phosphate esters prepared by the reaction of phosphorus pentoxide and fluorinated alcohols has been investigated. The reactivity strongly depends on the structure of the fluorinated alcohol, generally decreasing with increasing acidity. Moreover, the addition of a modulat…
An alumina–5 vol% yttrium aluminum garnet (YAG) composite was obtained through in situ reaction of alumina and yttria during sintering. Analysis of creep experiments together with microstructural data indicated that both pure alumina and alumina–5 vol% YAG composite deform by a Coble grain boundary diffusion creep pro…
Self-intermediate scattering functions (ISFs) are measured by dynamic light scattering for the colloidal fluid of hard spheres for both equilibrium and nonequilibrium (undercooled) conditions, i.e., for volume fractions below and above the known freezing transition of the hard-sphere system. The delay time tau(m) wher…
At room temperature, without any template and in the solid phase, shape-controlled silver nanostructures are synthesized using solid electrolyte RbAg(4)I(5) thin film under direct current electric field (DCEF) treatment. With different DCEF strengths, we have synthesized silver single-crystalline nanowires, nanotubes,…
Electronic properties of straight carbon nanotubes under an external electric are investigated, following a single-π-orbital tight binding approximation. Metal-insulator transitions in metallic tubes and energy gap modulations in semiconducting ones were found due to the action of the electric field. Reductions in the…
Abstract Thermal stability, crystallization, morphological development, subsequently melting, and crystallinity control of a syndiotactic 1,2‐polybutadiene sample were carefully carried out by thermogravimetry (TGA), polarized optical microscopy (POM), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), temperature‐modulated dif…
We have reported the dc conductivity as well as the ac conductivity in the frequency range 10 Hz–2 MHz for x AgI–(1− x )(0.5Ag 2 O–0.5MoO 3 ), glass-nanocomposites in the temperature range 100–303 K. We have compared the conductivity and its activation energy for the molybdate nanocomposites with those of the borate a…
We synthesized CdS nanorods through a conventional solvothermal method and studied their photoluminescence and electric transport properties before and after annealing. High-resolution transmission electron microscopy indicated that the surface layer of the annealed CdS nanorods was well crystallized, while that of th…
Isothermal magnetization curves up to 23 T were measured in Gd 5 (Si x Ge 1− x ) 4 alloys for x ⩽ 0.1. We show that a field-induced transition occurs from the antiferromagnetic (AFM) phase to a state in which competing short-range AFM and ferromagnetic (FM) correlations are present. This is based on the abrupt change…
