Abstract Fire retardancy behavior of polypropylene–magnesium hydroxide–clay composites of different morphologies is presented. Layer‐ and needle‐like clay nanoparticles in natural and organically surface modified form have been compared. Fire retardant performance of the composites was evaluated by conical combustor a…
Our goal was to analyze the changes in morphology and physiological function (phagocytosis, migratory capabilities, humoral and cellular response, and nitric oxide secretion) of murine macrophages after labeling with a clinically used superparamagnetic iron oxide (SPIO), ferucarbotran. In SPIO-treated macrophages, nan…
The establishment of a molecular view of heterogeneous catalysis has been hampered for a number of reasons. There are, however, recent developments, which show that we are now on the way towards reaching a molecular-scale picture of the way solids work as catalysts. By a combination of new theoretical methods, detaile…
The electronic and magnetic properties of the mother material LaOFeAs of new superconductors have been carefully studied using first-principles electronic structure calculations based on the generalized gradient approximation in the density functional theory. The present calculation predicts that the ground state of L…
The magnetic phase transitions and the magnetocaloric effect in the Ising antiferromagnet DySb have been studied. A field-induced sign change of the magnetocaloric effect has been observed which is related to a first-order field-induced metamagnetic transition from the antiferromagnetic to the ferromagnetic states at/…
We report significant thermal conductivity reduction in oxygen-deficient lanthanum-doped strontium titanate (Sr1−xLaxTiO3−δ) films as compared to unreduced strontium titanates. Our experimental results suggest that the oxygen vacancies could have played an important role in the reduction. This could be due to the natu…
Single crystals of multiferroic BiFeO3 were investigated using neutron scattering. Application of an electric field reversibly switches ferroelastic domains, inducing changes in the magnetic structure which follows rotation of the structural domains. In addition, electric fields can be used to control the populations…

Antiferroelectric lanthanum-modified PbZrO3 thin films with La contents between 0 and 6at.% have been deposited on Pt(111)∕Ti∕SiO2∕Si substrate by sol-gel route. On the extent of La-modification, maximum polarization (Pmax) and recoverable energy density (W) have been enhanced followed by their subsequent reduction. A…
The potential of exchange spring bilayers and graded media is reviewed. An analytical model for the optimization of graded media gives an optimal value of the magnetic polarization of Js = 0.8 T. The optimum design allows for thermally stable grains with grain diameters in the order of 3.3 nm, which supports ultra hig…
The isotropic XY model $(s=1/2)$ in a transverse field, with uniform long-range interactions among the transverse components of the spins, on the inhomogeneous periodic chain, is studied. The model, composed of $N$ segments with $n$ different exchange interactions and magnetic moments, is exactly solved by introducing…
We propose new confinement structures similar to heterostructures and superlattices. The new heteostructures can be obtained by applying strain to a single material in a periodic or aperiodic way. The conversion of an indirect gap into an optical active direct or quasi-direct gap problem has also been investigated tog…
We present the first-principles study of effects of the charge dopants such as cesium and iodine encapsulated on the electronic structure of carbon nanotubes (CNTs). An encapsulated cesium atom donates an electron to the nanotube and produces donorlike states below the conduction bands. In contrast, an iodine trimer (…
Heavily alloyed, 100nm Ga1−xMnxAs (x>0.1) films are obtained via low-temperature molecular beam epitaxy by utilizing a combinatorial technique which allows systematic control of excess arsenic during growth. Reproducible electronic, magnetic, and structural properties are optimized in a narrow range of stoichio…
We report a nonvolatile hybrid multiferroic memory cell with electrostatic control of magnetization based on strain-coupled GaMnAs ferromagnetic semiconductor and a piezoelectric material. We use the crystalline anisotropy of GaMnAs to store information in the orientation of the magnetization along one of the two easy…
A potential step in a graphene nanoribbon with zigzag edges is shown to be an intrinsic source of intervalley scattering---no matter how smooth the step is on the scale of the lattice constant $a$. The valleys are coupled by a pair of localized states at the opposite edges, which act as an attractor and/or repellor fo…
We study the ground state properties of the interacting spinless fermions in the $p_{x,y}$-orbital bands in the two dimensional honeycomb optical lattice, which exhibit different novel features from those in the $p_z$-orbital system of graphene. In addition to two dispersive bands with Dirac cones, the tight-binding b…
Accurate prediction of interfacial slip in nanoscale channels is required by many microfluidic applications. Existing hydrodynamic solutions based on Maxwellian boundary conditions include an empirical parameter that depends on material properties and pore dimensions. This paper presents a derivation of a new expressi…
The ferroelectric properties of ${\text{MnWO}}_{4}$ single crystal have been investigated. Despite a relatively low remanent polarization, we show that the sample is ferroelectric. The shape of the ferroelectric loop of ${\text{MnWO}}_{4}$ strongly depends on magnetic field and temperature. While its dependence does n…
We have investigated direct and pulsed current induced electroresistance in two manganites with different electronic and magnetic ground states: charge-orbital ordered 50 % Ca doped NdMnO3 and 50 % Mn doped LaNiO3. It has been shown that negative differential resistance observed at high current density in these compou…
