The piezoelectric properties of {001} oriented 0.5Pb(Yb1∕2Nb1∕2)O3–0.5PbTiO3 films were studied. It was found that the films show Rayleigh-like behavior in that the magnitude of the piezoelectric coefficient depends linearly on the amplitude of the exciting ac electric field used for the measurement. The reversible an…

Sol-gel process was adopted to prepare BiFeO3 films. Pure phase BiFeO3 films were deposited on LaNiO3 coated Si (111) substrates at various annealing temperatures of 450–600°C. The films annealed at 450–600°C are (110) and (1̱10) biaxis preferential oriented. Below 550°C, the remnant polarization increases with the an…

We determine the phase diagram of ${\mathrm{Ni}}_{2+x}{\mathrm{Mn}}_{1\ensuremath{-}x}\mathrm{Ga}$ as a function of $x$ $(0<x\ensuremath{\leqslant}0.35)$ from ac susceptibility and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Total energy and density of states calculated using the ab initio full potential linearized pl…

Abstract A series of novel dendritic carbazole‐based porphyrins [T(Cz‐G n )Ps] have been synthesized by a combination of Ullmann coupling and Adler condensation reactions and their intramolecular energy‐transfer properties have been studied by absorption and steady‐state fluorescence spectroscopy. It has been found th…

Ceramics with zero thermal expansion coefficients at room temperature (293K) were investigated. We found the thermal expansion coefficient was controlled by a compounding ratio of lithium aluminum silicate (LAS) and silicon carbide (SiC), which have negative and positive thermal expansion coefficients respectively. Al…

We report on the temperature dependence of the intrinsic resistance of long individual disordered single-wall carbon nanotubes. The resistance grows dramatically as the temperature is reduced, and the functional form is consistent with an activated behavior. These results are described by a Coulomb blockade along a se…

The corrosion behaviors of Ln2Si2O7 (Ln=Yb and Lu) and ASiO4 (A=Ti, Zr and Hf) EBC's were examined at 1500oC in water vapor environment. These oxides were coated on silicon nitride specimens by oxidation-bonded reaction sintering technique. Among Ln2Si2O7 system, though the thermal expansion coefficient of Yb2Si2O7 ph…

As-doped p-type ZnO films were grown on GaAs by sputtering and thermal diffusion process. Hall effect measurements showed that the as-grown films were of n-type conductivity and they were converted to p-type behavior after thermal annealing. Moreover, the hole concentration of As-doped p-type ZnO was very impressible…

Density functional theory (DFT) quantum chemical calculations are used to determine adsorption energies and geometries of NO, NO(2), CO(2), and H(2)O on a barium oxide (100) surface. The study includes two adsorption geometries for NO(2). All species form thermodynamically stable adsorbates, and adsorption strength in…

Thin films with sinusoidally varying refractive index profiles display photonic band gap effects. Intentional deviations from the periodic index profile can be used to tailor the optical properties of the resulting thin film. We present experimental characterization of TiO2 films with periodic index profiles fabricate…

The amphoteric nature of ZnO is used to produce the material from strongly alkaline solution. The solution pH is lowered globally to produce ZnO powder, and it is lowered locally at a Au(111) surface to produce epitaxial films. ZnO powder is precipitated from a solution of 10 mM Zn(II) in 0.25 M NaOH by simply adding…
