Two new oxides, BaTeMo2O9 and BaTeW2O9, have been synthesized, by standard solid-state techniques, that have strong SHG intensities of approximately 600 x SiO2, on the order of LiNbO3. Both materials contain cations susceptible to second-order Jahn-Teller (SOJT) distortions, resulting in asymmetric coordination enviro…

We show that photovoltaic devices fabricated from blends of branched CdSe nanoparticles and a conjugated polymer give improved performance compared with devices made from nanorod/polymer blends. The improvement is consistent with improved electron transport perpendicular to the plane of the film. Solar power conversio…

EPR studies on ${\mathrm{Gd}}^{3+}$-doped diamagnetic ${\mathrm{LaNbO}}_{4}$ and paramagnetic ${\mathrm{PrNbO}}_{4}$ crystals containing ${\mathrm{Nd}}^{3+}$ and ${\mathrm{Ce}}^{3+}$ impurity Kramers ions were carried out at the X band (9.61 GHz) in the 4--295 K temperature range. The observed asymmetry in the extrema…

Abstract Calcium carbonate scale represents a significant safety and operational problem in offshore carbonate fields operated by Saudi Aramco. Scale can form on any surface where the pressure drop is sufficient for the produced fluids to form the scale and unload entrained solids. These solids will deposit on wellhea…

The crystal structure of Sb-II has been determined using angle-dispersive x-ray diffraction of synchrotron radiation. The crystal structure comprises an interpenetrating assembly of a tetragonal host sublattice with symmetry $I422$ and a tetragonal guest sublattice of symmetry $I422,$ which realize common a axes but d…

The dynamics of star polymers is investigated via extensive molecular and Brownian dynamics simulations for a large range of functionality f and packing fraction eta. The calculated isodiffusivity curves display both minima and maxima as a function of eta and minima as a function of f. Simulation results are compared…

Electronic and atomic structures of the clean, and As and Te covered Si(211) surface are studied using pseudopotential density functional method. The clean surface is found to have (2 X 1) and rebonded (1 X 1) reconstructions as stable surface structures, but no π-bonded chain reconstruction. Binding energies of As an…

We investigate the magnetothermodynamic properties of the perovskite manganite Pr0.46Sr0.54MnO3. Our data imply that the paramagnetic to antiferromagnetic transition at TN = 210 K is first order with an abrupt decrease of volume (~ 0.14 % in zero magnetic field) and is accompanied by a sharp anomaly in specific heat.…

As a guide to constitutive specification, driving forces for dislocation velocity and nucleation rates are derived for a field theory of dislocation mechanics and crystal plasticity proposed in Acharya (2001, J. Mech. Phys. Solids 49, 761–785). A condition of closure for the theory in the form of a boundary condition…

Density functional theory calculations were used to investigate the mechanisms of NO−carbon and N 2 O−carbon reactions. It was the first time that the importance of surface nitrogen groups was addressed in the kinetic behaviors of the NO−carbon reaction. It was found that the off-plane nitrogen groups that are adjacen…

The segmental dynamics in 1,2-polybutadiene was studied over a broad range of temperature and pressure using dielectric spectroscopy. The glass transition temperature was found to be strongly dependent on pressure (d T g /d P = 240 K/GPa). Moreover, while no appreciable change in the shape of the relaxation function w…

A novel material, amorphous nanostructured HAlO, has been synthesized by the reaction of various methylsiloxanes [e.g., (Me 2 HSi) 2 O] with the aluminum hydride H 3 Al·NMe 3 in ether or aromatic solvents under mild conditions. Its high surface area of ca. 250 m 2 /g is due to both its small particle size of approxima…

Zn and Pd complexes of meso-tetraphenyltetranaphthaloporphyrins (Ph(4)TNP) exhibit strong infrared absorption bands and luminesce in solutions at room temperature. S1 --> S0 fluorescence (lambda(max) = 732 nm, phi = 5.3%) is the predominant emission in the case of ZnPh(4)TNP (1). This emission is in part due to the de…
