Poly(amidoamine)s with amino pendant groups were prepared by hydrogen-transfer polyaddition of primary and secondary amines to bis-acrylamines. Dansyl cadaverine (DC) doxorubicin (Dox) were bound to the polymers via a cis-aconityl spacer to give conjugates containing 3 microg of DC per mg of polymer and 28 to 35 micro…

Abstract The electronic transport properties of stacks of perylene‐bis(dicarboximide) (PDI) chromophores, covalently fixed to the side arms of rigid, helical polyisocyanopeptides, are studied using thin‐film transistors. In device architectures where the transistor channel lengths are somewhat greater than the average…

Abstract Dense and porous hyperbranched carbosiloxane thin films (HBCSO) are obtained by sol–gel processing using methylene‐bridged hyperbranched polycarbosilanes (HBPCSs) with the general compositional formula {(OMe) 2 Si(CH 2 )}. Introduction of porosity is achieved using a porogen templating approach, allowing the…

Abstract The effect of nanoplatelets on the rheological behavior of epoxy monomers with variations in nanoplatelet exfoliation level and aspect ratio was investigated. The results show that the presence of exfoliated nanoplatelets in epoxy can significantly influence viscosity and lead to shear‐thinning phenomena, esp…

Highly uniform and large-area single-walled carbon-nanotube (SWNT) networks are realized by the dip-coating method, which is based on fundamental fluid-dynamic phenomena such as capillary condensation and surface tension. The changes in the polarity and hydration properties of the substrate affect the morphology of th…

We report rates of Auger recombination (AR) in zero-dimensional (0D) PbSe nanocrystals as a function of energy gap (Eg) by using applied hydrostatic pressure to controllably shift E(g) according to the bulk deformation potential. Our studies reveal that the rate of AR in nanocrystals is insensitive to energy gap, whic…

A model is presented for magnetoelectric (ME) effects in a functionally graded ferroelectric-ferromagnetic bilayer. A linear grading of the piezoelectric coefficient and permittivity in the ferroelectric and a similar grading of piezomagnetic coefficient in the ferromagnet are assumed. The ME coupling at low frequenci…

Abstract Sb‐doped SnP 2 O 7 were prepared and characterised with XRD, FTIR, SEM and EIS. The preparation parameters were optimised taking into consideration the influence of H 3 PO 4 content in the reactants and P m O n impurities. Conductivities of SnP 2 O 7 with different Sb doping levels were studied from 100 to 30…

In this work, a simple non-template one-step method for the synthesis of 2.0−2.5 nm palladium nanoparticles encapsulated into a polypyrrole shell via direct redox reaction between palladium(II) acetate and pyrrole in acetonitrile medium is described. Palladium nanoparticles are found to be able to self-organize into s…

Single crystals of ReB(2) have been prepared from an aluminum flux under inert gas flow. The crystals are typically 1-3 mm in diameter and 500 microm thick, growing along the [002] direction with a distinct hexagonal morphology. Vickers microhardness and nanoindentation testing indicate that the (002) plane possesses…

Calcite crystals grown in agarose hydrogels incorporate the gel network while retaining their single-crystal nature. The amount of gel network that is incorporated is determined by two competing factors: crystallization pressure promotes the exclusion of the gel network, while faster growth rates favor its incorporati…

We make progress towards a 3D finite-element model for the magnetization of a high temperature superconductor (HTS): We suggest a method that takes into account demagnetisation effects and flux creep, while it neglects the effects associated with currents that are not perpendicular to the local magnetic induction.
