Measurements of critical dimensions (CDs), roughness, and other dimensional aspects of semiconductor electronics products rely upon secondary electron (SE) images in the scanning electron microscope (SEM). These images are subject to artifacts at the nanometer size scale that is relevant for many of these measurements…

New perylenebisimide derivatives hydroxyperylenebisimide and naphthoperylenebisimide were obtained and applied to construct a new solvatochromic dyad 9. The solvatochromic behavior of hydroxyperylenebisimide was studied, and the structure of naphthoperylenebisimide was determined by X-ray crystallography. The spectral…

Abstract Nylon‐6/poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) ultra‐multi‐island sea–island conjugated melt‐spun fibers are flow‐drawn at a draw ratio of 174 with heating by CO 2 laser irradiation. Continuous PET nanofibers that have a diameter of 39 nm could be obtained from the flow‐drawn fiber with further drawing and remova…

A combined approach using the Rietveld technique of structure refinement and DIFFaX simulations of the powder patterns enables us to not only arrive at the complete structure of the layered double hydroxides (LDHs), but also classify and quantify the nature of structural disorder. Hydrolysis of urea dissolved in mixed…

A group of elastically coupled ferroelectric and ferrite composites with the general formula (x)BaTiO3 + (1−x)Ni0.94Co0.01Cu0.05Fe2 O4 (where x = 0.85, 0.70 and 0.55) was prepared by the standard ceramic reaction method. The x-ray diffraction pattern of the composite reveals a spinel phase formation for the ferrite an…

Abstract High‐pressure water jets are used to cut and drill into rocks by generating cavitating water bubbles in the jet which collapse on the surface of the rock target material. The dynamics of submerged bubbles depends strongly on the surrounding pressure, temperature and liquid surface tension. The Rayleigh–Plesse…

Extreme ultra-violet (EUV) lithography has become the technique of choice to print the ever-shrinking nanoscale features on the silicon wafer. For successful transfer of patterns on to the wafer, the EUV photomask cannot contain defects greater than 30 nm. Megasonic cleaning is a very successful cleaning technique for…

Using time-resolved measurements of local magnetization in the molecular magnet Mn12-ac, we report studies of the propagation of magnetic avalanches (fast magnetization reversals) that originate from points inside the crystals rather than at the edges. The curved nature of the fronts produced by avalanches is reflecte…

In a recent work by Jiang et al. [J. Phys. Chem. Solids 67 (2006) 1531-1536], the interrelationship between lattice constant, ionic radii and tolerance factor of cubic perovskites has been established and an empirical equation was obtained. However, the assumption of incorrect ionic coordination led to an incorrect ma…

It is well known that the magnetic anisotropy in a compressively-strained Mn-doped GaAs film changes from perpendicular to parallel with increasing hole concentration $p$. We study this reorientation transition at T=0 in a quantum well with Mn impurities confined to a single plane. With increasing $p$, the angle $θ$ t…

We have performed an $in$-$situ$ depth profile study of Mn-doped GaN prepared by a low temperature thermal diffusion method using photoemission and x-ray absorption spectroscopy. It was revealed from the core-level photoemission measurements that Mn ions are diffused into a deep ($\sim$ 70 Å) region of the GaN substra…

Highly regioselective photooxidation of methyl cycloalkenes has been performed in an aqueous medium by selectively blocking two of the three allylic hydrogens through supramolecular steric effect. Hydrophobic, steric, and weak intermolecular C−H−π interactions are suggested to be responsible for the specific orientati…
