Marked changes in the magnetostriction of CoFe2O4 in the substitution of Mn for Co has been observed. The magnetostriction parallel to the applied field direction decreases with increasing Mn content, whereas the magnetostriction perpendicular to the field showed a marked increase for 10% of the Mn substitution. The o…

A new heterometallic iodoplumbate was synthesized solvothermally. The complex, [Co(phen)3][Pb3Cu6I16].C2H5OH, contains a novel Pb3Cu6I16 net made up of linked Pb3I11 and Cu6I11 clusters. The clusters form a BN-type layer, where the Pb3I11 and Cu6I11 clusters take the place of B and N. The layers, which are separated b…

Nitzschia fonticola (Grunow) Grunow is a member of Nitzschia sect. Lanceolatae , a group of taxonomically intractable but ecologically important and widespread diatoms. We investigated the morphology and life cycle in three clones of N. fonticola and all exhibited reduced sexuality, with pedogamous production of auxos…

A novel extended composite right/left-handed (E-CRLH) transmission line (TL) metamaterial structure, constituted by the combination of the conventional CRLH (C- CRLH) and the recently introduced dual CRLH (D-CRLH) prototypes, is proposed. This E-CRLH metamaterial is characterized by eight LC parameters (four C-CRLH an…

The dynamic glass transition in ultrathin films of poly(vinyl acetate) (PVAc) is investigated by broadband dielectric spectroscopy. With decreasing film thickness changes in the relaxation time distribution are detected, leading, for thicknesses below ∼20 nm, to an increase in the average relaxation rate. This is caus…

In this study, a new Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy method for measuring lactide concentration in a polylactide (PLA) matrix is presented. The lactide ring breathing mode peak at 935 cm -1 is rationed against the asymmetric bending mode of methyl groups at 1454 cm -1; because the methyl group is presen…

Abstract The determination of kaolinite order-disorder by X-ray diffraction is problematic due to overlapping peaks from associated kaolin minerals and X-ray amorphous phases. This paper presents a new index (Aparicio-Gala´n-Ferrell index — AGFI), measured on 02 l and 11 l reflections after decomposing individual peak…

Hugoniot measurements on the highly dense, pure B4C polycrystal were performed by the inclined-mirror method to study the elastoplastic transition and to search phase transition. In inclined-mirror streak photographs, the smoothly jagged structure was observed at the free-surface shape in the plastic region. The Hugon…

Potential of mean force (PMF) profiles of a single Na+ or K+ ion passing through a cyclic peptide nanotube, cyclo[-(D-Ala-Glu-D-Ala-Gln)2-], in water are calculated to provide insight into ion transport and to understand the conductance difference between these two ions. The PMF profiles are obtained by performing ste…

Do polypeptide chains ever behave like a random coil? In this report we demonstrate that glycine, the residue with the fewest backbone restrictions, exhibits a strong preference for an extended conformation in solution when polymerized in short segments of polyglycine. A model peptide system comprised of two unique tr…
