The problem of adequate electronic model for doped manganites like La_{1-x}Sr_{x}MnO_3 remains controversial. In such a situation we argue a necessity to discuss all possible candidate states with different valent structure of manganese and oxygen atoms, as well as different valent states of octahedral MnO_{6} centers…
Four new quaternary selenides CsGdZnSe3, CsZrCuSe3, CsUCuSe3, and BaGdCuSe3 have been synthesized with the use of traditional high-temperature solid-state experimental methods. These compounds are isostructural with KZrCuS3, crystallizing with four formula units in the orthorhombic space group Cmcm. Cell constants (A)…
We propose the two-band s-d model to describe theoretically a diffuse regime of the spin-dependent electron transport in magnetic tunnel junctions (MTJ's) of the form F/O/F where F's are 3d transition metal ferromagnetic layers and O is the insulating spacer. We aim to explain the strong interface sensitivity of the t…
Single crystals of hexagonal $R{\mathrm{MnO}}_{3}$ $(R=\mathrm{Y},$ Yb, and Lu), where Mn ions form the triangular lattice, were investigated, focusing on their dielectric/magnetic anomalies as well as geometrical spin frustration. It is found that the ratio of a Weiss temperature to ${T}_{\mathrm{N}}$ is $\ensuremath…
TiNi/CFRP composites were fabricated by hot-pressing in the temperature range of 130-180 degree(s)C, by controlling the applied pressure. The TiNi wires were embedded as an 1mm interval into the center of CFRP layers and CFRP host materials were stacked as 0, 30, 60 and 90 degrees configuration on tensile direction, r…
The phase behavior, rheology, and morphology of binary blends of semiflexible main-chain thermotropic liquid-crystalline polymers (TLCPs) were investigated. Specifically, binary blends consisting of poly[(phenylsulfonyl)- p -phenylene alkylene-bis(4-oxybenzoate)]s (PSHQ n ) having five methylene groups (PSHQ5) and 11…
Advances in smart materials and structures technology, especially in applications of Shape Memory Alloys (SMA) as actuators and vibration isolation devices require understanding of the nonlinear hysteretic response found in SMAs. SMA hysteresis can be modeled either through constitutive models based on physical materi…
Long-chain n- alkylamine surfactants have been used as structure-directing agents in the synthesis of mesoporous aluminophosphates by a highly cooperative formation mechanism in an alcoholic system. Small amounts of water in the synthesis mixture play a significant role in the hydrolysis of the aluminum precursor (Al[…
This study presents results from experimental validation of a recently developed model for predicting the thermomechanical behavior of shape memory alloy hybrid composite (SMAHC) structures, composite structures with an embedded SMA constituent. The model captures the material nonlinearity of the material system with…
The WAXS diffractograms of random ethylene copolymers were analyzed for samples rapidly quenched, annealed, or isothermally crystallized. Comonomers studied include 1-decene, 1-hexene, 4-methylpentene, norbornene, and dicyclopentadiene in a range of concentration that includes semicrystalline and amorphous copolymers…
A highly sensitive and tissue equivalent LiF:Mg,Cu,P thermoluminescent (TL) phosphor in powder form has been developed. The TL sensitivity of this phosphor is about 1.5 times that of Harshaw-Bicron LiF:Mg,Cu,P (TLD100-H) by peak height measurements. Its dose against TL response is linear up to 10 Gy. The annealing tem…
Anti-Stokes and Stokes emissions have been observed from cubic Y 2 O 3:Eu 3+ under 632.8 nm excitation. All the emission features exhibited a marked thermal dependence, decreasing in intensity as the temperature was lowered. Arrhenius plots of this thermal behavior indicated that the Eu 3+ ions were thermally excited…
Nanomaterials that make use of both electron charge and spin are highly desirable and extremely attractive in the development of new multifunctional devices for optoelectronics and information storage technology. In this study, we demonstrate that the hybrid nanostructures Zn 1 - x Mn x Se(L) 0.5 (L = ethylenediamine,…
Hysteresis in smart materials hinders the wider applicability of such materials in actuators. In this paper, a systematic approach for coping with hysteresis is presented. The method is illustrated through the example of controlling a commercially available magnetostrictive actuator. We utilize the low-dimensional mod…
A new class of nanostructures has been prepared and characterized. These nanocomposite hybrid materials are composed of two-dimensional MQ (II−VI) slabs and organic bifunctional molecules that act as links as well as spacers. The most intriguing properties of these nanostructures are that they exhibit strong quantum c…
New soluble polyimides with improved adhesion to copper were synthesized from 6,4‘-diamino-2-phenylbenzimidazole (BIA) and 2,2‘-bis(trifluoromethyl)-4,4‘-diaminobiphenyl (TFDB) with 3,3‘,4,4‘-benzophenone tetracarboxylic dianhydride (BTDA) via one-pot synthetic method using N -methylpyrrolidone (NMP) as a solvent. Pre…
Molybdenum oxide catalysts (1 wt %) supported on SiO 2 (L-90, 95 m 2 /g), SiO 2 (EH-5, 350 m 2 /g), Al 2 O 3 (96 m 2 /g), and TiO 2 (52 m 2 /g) were characterized using Raman spectroscopy and near-edge and extended X-ray absorption fine structure (NEXAFS and EXAFS, respectively) spectroscopies. The structural possibil…
We show how to describe Coulomb renormalization effects and dielectric screening in semiconductors and semiconductor nanostructures within a first-principles density-matrix description. Those dynamic variables and approximation schemes which are required for a proper description of dielectric screening are identified.…
