The effect of nanosized silica particles on the properties of poly(vinyl acetate) (PVAc) was investigated for a range of silica concentrations encompassing the percolation threshold. The quantity of polymer adsorbed to the particles (“bound rubber”) increased systematically with silica content and was roughly equal to…

Single-phase bulk samples of the "exotic" CoO2, the x = 0 phase of the AxCoO2 systems (A = Li, Na), were successfully synthesized through electrochemical de-intercalation of Li from pristine LiCoO2 samples. The samples of pure CoO2 were found to be essentially oxygen stoichiometric and possess a hexagonal structure co…

Two-photon polymerization has been demonstrated as an effective technique to define embedded defects in three-dimensional photonic crystals. In this work we demonstrate the ability to precisely position embedded defects with respect to the lattice of three-dimensional photonic crystals by imaging the structure concurr…

We report all-electron variational and diffusion quantum Monte Carlo (VMC and DMC) calculations for the noble gas atoms He, Ne, Ar, Kr, and Xe. The calculations were performed using Slater-Jastrow wave functions with Hartree-Fock single-particle orbitals. The quality of both the optimized Jastrow factors and the nodal…

We predict that neutral graphene bilayers are pseudospin magnets in which the charge density contribution from each valley and spin spontaneously shifts to one of the two layers. The band structure of this system is characterized by a momentum-space vortex, which is responsible for unusual competition between band and…

Nonwoven fiber mats of chitosan with potential applications in air and water filtration were successfully made by electrospinning of chitosan and poly(ethyleneoxide) (PEO) blend solutions. Electrospinning of pure chitosan was hindered by its limited solubility in aqueous acids and high degree of inter- and intrachain…

Abstract An alternative route to acrylamide gel polymerisation is presented for the preparation of oxide nanopowders. Within this method, cations first dissolved in an aqueous solution are subsequently trapped inside a 3D chelating gel beforefast‐drying, which leads to a stable precursor. In this study, we have prepar…

The time-dependent binding mode of a porphyrin dimer to poly[d(G-C)2] and poly[d(A-T)2] was investigated by spectroscopic methods including absorption and circular and linear dichroism (CD and LD) spectroscopy. Immediately after mixing with poly[d(G-C)2], the porphyrin dimer exhibited red-shift and hypochromism in the…

It is found that in laser-induced thermoelectric voltage (LITV) signal in La1-xCaxMnO3and YBa2Cu3O7-y.H thin films, both the rise-time and decay time are increasing linearly with the total parallel-connected resistance of the load and the film. To obtain fast laser-induced thermoelectric voltage signal, smaller load s…

In macromolecular crystallography several programs are available to fulfil the steps from data integration via phasing to model refinement. The pathway is not fixed and it is often useful to combine several similar programs. There is no common data format used by all programs and conversions are required between the d…
