Extinction, scattering, and absorption cross sections and efficiencies were experimentally measured for chemically clean silver nanoparticles in water for 16 different sizes ranging from 29 to 136 nm. The measured efficiencies indicate that particles interact with light 4-10 times stronger than the geometric cross sec…

Multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs)/nylon-6 (PA6) nanocomposites with different MWNTs loadings have been prepared by the simple melt-compounding approach. A fine and homogeneous dispersion of MWNTs throughout PA6 matrix is observed by transmission electron microscopy. Scanning electron microscopy observation on the f…

Polylactide polymers have gained enormous attention as a replacement for conventional synthetic packaging materials in the last decade. By being truly biodegradable, derived from renewable resources and by providing consumers with extra end-use benefits such as avoiding paying the "green tax" in Germany or meeting env…

Abstract Magnetostriction was measured in 3% Si‐Fe grain‐oriented electrical steel under a nonuniform temperature distribution with a 5 to 10 °C difference in a single sheet measuring 100 × 500 mm. A temperature difference of 0.2 °C/mm in the sheet increased magnetostriction four times as much as in the case of a unif…

We present a simulation tool to study fluid mixtures that are simultaneously chemically reacting and adsorbing in a porous material. The method is a combination of the reaction ensemble Monte Carlo method and the dual control volume grand canonical molecular dynamics technique. The method, termed the dual control cell…

Within the lattice constants ranging from 3.5 to 4.28 \AA{}, we predict that manganese carbide (MnC) will possess a coexistent phase of periodic magnetic moments contributed by the semiconducting majority spin states and itinerant electrons in the minority spin channel. We analyze the effects of hybridization between…

We present Monte Carlo simulations of diskotic molecules using the Gay-Berne potential in a slab geometry. The disk-wall interaction is described by two different functions according to whether or not the equilibrium distance is dependent on the relative orientation of the disk to the wall. Furthermore, by changing th…

Photoluminescence (PL) from singlet oxygen generated by energy transfer from porous $\mathrm{Si}$ is observed at room temperature in an organic solvent. The evidence of the indirect excitation by energy transfer is obtained from PL excitation spectroscopy. The excitation spectrum indicates that by using porous $\mathr…

In the present research, we investigated the use of paramagnetic liposomes as contrast agents (CAs) for the detection of solid tumors. The liposomes were sterically stabilized by a polyethylene glycol (PEG) coating, and their size was constrained to approximately 100 nm. Dimyristoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine-N-…
