A method to coat thin wires, 25 μm in diameter, with fluorocarbon material that is flexible and conformal has been achieved using pulsed plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD). This process enables the chemical composition of the films to be tailored in order to achieve similar stoichiometry and chemical co…
Polycationic high-spin states of 1,3-bis(diarylamino)benzene and 1,3,5-tris(diarylamino)benzene as prototypical model units for organic ferromagnetic metals have been studied by cw and pulsed ESR spectroscopy. An electron spin transient nutation (ESTN) method as a novel technique based on pulsed ESR spectroscopy has b…
In order to understand the effects of protein fouling during ultrafiltration of biological fluids, we have investigated the molecular interactions between a thin polysulfone film and hen egg lysozyme with the surface forces apparatus (SFA). The normalized forces between the adsorbed protein layers and polymer films we…
The synthesis of three triazamacrocycles containing the pyridine moiety and three acetate pendant arms (PCTA) is reported. The three systems differ due to the number of carbon atoms in the macrocyclic ring forming ligands PCTA-[12], -[13], and -[14], endowed with different coordination capabilities toward lanthanide(I…
Electron-beam deposition is used to fabricate free-standing carbon nanoelectrodes separated by a gap of less than 5 nm. Fabrication is carried out under direct visual control in an electron microscope. After coating the carbon electrodes with a thin metal film (e.g., AuPd) such structures can be used to study electric…
Abstract This paper describes research methodologies for the investigation of the mechanism of vulcanization and discusses the reactivity of thiuram and dithiocarbamate chemicals. The combined knowledge is subsequently applied to thoroughly review the mechanism and chemistry of both thiuram- and dithiocarbamate-accele…
In this study, mechanical properties of three types of polymeric foams (polypropylene (PP), polystyrene (PS), and polyurethane (PU) foams) are investigated. Focus has been placed on the strain rate and temperature effects on these foams under large deformations. Selected experimental results from uniaxial compression,…
A solvation and electrostatic model has been developed for estimating electrolyte adsorption from physical and chemical properties of the system, consistent with the triple-layer model. The model is calibrated on experimental surface titration data for ten oxides and hydroxides in ten electrolytes over a range of ioni…
This paper reports the results of hot-electron lifetime measurements in a series of thin films prepared by wet chemistry techniques from 12-nm colloidal Au nanoparticles. The films, which vary in thickness and domain (or aggregate) size, are studied by a combined approach of femtosecond optical spectroscopy and scanni…
To evaluate the biocompatibility of a newly developed degradable class of polyesterurethanes and their possible use as biomaterials, we investigated the cell and tissue interactions with these polymers using a small number of chemical base entities. The polymers were prepared by chain extension with diisocyanates of P…
A synthesis method is introduced for very small uniform gold particles (diameter less than 5 nm), based on the reduction of hydrogen tetrachloroaurate(III) in ethanol in the presence of (γ-mercaptopropyl)trimethoxysilane (MPS). The surface layer of MPS molecules gives the gold particles a high colloidal stability and…
The structures of different celluloses (microcrystalline and native) were characterized by diffuse reflectance infrared spectroscopy (DRIFT), analyzing the bands due to O−H stretching, C−O stretching, and C−H bending modes. The respective crystallinities were determined as 73 ± 2% and 40 ± 2%, and the crystalline stru…
Prolyl 4-hydroxylase (proline hydroxylase, EC 1.14.11.2) catalyzes the formation of 4-hydroxyproline in collagens. The vertebrate enzyme is an alpha2beta2 tetramer, the beta subunit of which is identical to protein disulfide-isomerase (PDI, EC 5.3.4.1). We report here on cloning of the recently discovered alpha(II) su…
Optical memory systems that exhibit multiplexity and multifunctionality may allow high‐density storage and multiple addressing and readout. In a first step towards such systems, it is shown that two‐component mixtures of dithienylethene compounds (e.g., see Figure) can be switched reversibly between four different col…
Polarizing beam splitters that use the anisotropic spectral reflectivity (ASR) characteristic of high-spatial-frequency multilayer binary gratings have been designed, fabricated, and characterized. Using the ASR effect with rigorous coupled-wave analysis, we design an optical element that is transparent for TM polariz…
From an experimental point of view and more particularly in heterogeneous catalysis, the L III white line is at the center of electronic charge transfer either between either the nanometer scale metallic particle and the support or between the two metals which are present inside the cluster. In this work, we show that…
We present an experimental study of the growth patterns of directionally solidified thin samples of the lamellar eutectic alloy CBr${}_{4}$-C${}_{2}$Cl${}_{6}$ as a function of the pattern wavelength $\ensuremath{\lambda}$, the solidification velocity $V$, and the alloy concentration $C$, within the so-called planar c…
Double layer capacitors made with activated carbon electrodes and filled with nonaqueous electrolytes at different salt concentrations have been studied. It was found that the performance of the capacitor is strongly dependent on the salt concentration in the electrolyte. For electrolytes with high salt concentrations…
By controlling the angular relation of the substrate surface with respect to the incoming vapor direction in an evaporation deposition system, it is possible to engineer the morphology of thin films. Sculptured nematic thin films result under low adatom mobility conditions when the substrates are rotated about an axis…
