The segmental dynamics of amorphous poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) in a lamellar poly(styrene)−poly(dimethylsiloxane) diblock (PS−PDMS) is investigated by means of broadband dielectric spectroscopy. Because of the absence of normal mode in PDMS, we have been able to analyze the low-frequency side of the α-relaxation in…

A mesostructured hollow sphere form of carbon can be synthesized by using mesocellular foam (MCF) silica as template. A carbon structure composed of spherical hollows with closed walls and with mesopores of around 4 nm in diameter was prepared by the two-step impregnation of sucrose and successive carbonization under…

A rigid body boundary layer interface force (RIF) model for stress calculation on the nanoscale is proposed in this paper for calculating stress based on molecular dynamics. The RIF model is used to study the stress–stain behaviour when nanoscale single crystal copper is under uniaxial tension, and is used for 15 tens…

The scattering function for Schulz–Flory distributed spherical core–shell particles is derived analytically. A constant ratio of core to shell radii is assumed. The analytical expression, which does not require any numerical integration, provides a fast way to model experimental data by nonlinear least-squares fitting…

Abstract Single-crystalline CuO nanoleaves with an average thickness of about 10 nm and with lateral sizes of hundreds of nanometers to several micrometers have been successfully synthesized by microwave-heating of an aqueous solution containing copper salt and sodium hydroxide. CuO nanoleaves were characterized by po…

By using Monte Carlo simulations in the grand canonical ensemble we investigate the bulk phase behaviour of a model colloid–polymer mixture, the so-called Asakura–Oosawa model. In this model the colloids and polymers are considered as spheres with a hard-sphere colloid–colloid and colloid–polymer interaction and a zer…

We present the non-equilibrium phase diagram of rod-like colloids ( fd -viruses) under shear flow. The shear-induced displacement of the isotropic–nematic binodal is obtained from time resolved rheology measurements. Vorticity banding is observed within the biphasic region, as bounded by the binodal. Here, in the stat…

Two families of misfit cobalt oxides have been reinvestigated using neutron and synchrotron powder diffraction data and Rietveld structure refinements in the four-dimensional formalism for aperiodic structures. In the first system [Ca 2 CoO 3 ][CoO 2 ] 1.62 , the structure-specific features of two complex polytypic ph…

A Vps10p domain makes up the entire luminal part of Sortilin, and this type of domain is the hallmark of a new family of neuronal receptors that target a variety of ligands, including neurotrophins and neuropeptides. We have shown that two structural features of the Vps10p domain, the N-terminal propeptide and the C-t…

A mixed oxidation-state (Rh24+ and Rh25+) compound, [{Rh2(acam)4}2I]n.6nH2O (Hacam = acetamide), has been synthesized. The compound has a nonpenetrating diamondoid arrangement of {Rh2(acam)4} units linked by mu4-iodides. All of the dirhodium units are crystallographically equivalent, as are all of the iodide atoms.

Centimeter scale aligned carbon nanotube arrays are grown from nanoparticle/metal catalyst pads. We find the nanotubes grow both “with” and “against the wind”. A metal underlayer provides in situ electrical contact to these long nanotubes with no post growth processing needed. Using the electrically contacted nanotube…
