ZnS semiconductor quantum dots have been synthesized using a method involving melt exchange reaction inside the pores of MCM-41 and subsequent reaction with H(2)S. The ZnS quantum dots-MCM-41 composite, which has been studied with XRD, EDS, and BET techniques, is shown to have retained within the pores the formed quan…

Cellulose films were prepared by dissolving lyocell fibers in LiCl/N,N-dimethylacetamide solvent and subsequently coagulating and drying them under ambient conditions. To introduce preferred orientation, the films were uniaxially drawn under air-dry and rewetted conditions, respectively. Preferred orientation was dete…

In the Buchwald-Hartwig reaction between HIPTBr (HIPT = 3,5-(2,4,6-i-Pr3C6H2)2C6H3 = hexaisopropylterphenyl) and (H2NCH2CH2)3N, it is possible to obtain a 65% isolated yield of (HIPTNHCH2CH2)2NCH2CH2NH2. A second coupling then can be carried out to yield a variety of "hybrid" ligands, (HIPTNHCH2CH2)2NCH2CH2NHAr, where…

Surfactants can direct the growth of gold nanoparticles to create anisotropic structures in high yield by simple means, yet the exact roles of surfactants and other reactants are not entirely understood. Here we show that one can exploit the geometrical dependence of the localized surface plasmon resonant extinction s…

The mechanism of direct N(2)O decomposition over Fe-ZSM-5 and Fe-silicate was studied in the temporal analysis of products (TAP) reactor in the temperature range of 773-848 K at a peak N(2)O pressure of ca. 10 Pa. Several kinetic models based on elementary reaction steps were evaluated to describe the transient respon…

Lightly doped ${\mathrm{La}}_{1\ensuremath{-}x}{\mathrm{Sr}}_{x}\mathrm{Co}{\mathrm{O}}_{3}$ single crystals (i.e., $x\ensuremath{\leqslant}0.15$) have been intensively studied primarily due to the occurrence of spin-state transitions and magnetoelectronic phase separation. We report here the electronic transport and…

We report the first synthesis of spherical nanoparticles of a bridged polysilsesquioxane. The hard, brittle nanoparticles are prepared by a simple sol-gel polymerization without surfactants or templates. Particle size ranges from 50 to 100 nm. The organic component of these hybrid nanoparticles is composed of a photol…

From a synthesis of recent oceanic observations and paleo‐data it is evident that certain species of giant diatoms including Rhizosolenia spp. Thalassiothrix spp. and Ethmodiscus rex may become concentrated at oceanic frontal zones and subsequently form episodes of mass flux to the sediment. Within the nutrient bearin…

Magnetic metamaterials composed of split-ring resonators or U-type elements may exhibit discreteness effects in THz and optical frequencies due to weak coupling. We consider a model one-dimensional metamaterial formed by a discrete array of nonlinear split-ring resonators where each ring interacts with its nearest nei…

We have measured the contribution of magnetic domain walls (DWs) to the electric resistance in epitaxial manganite films patterned by electron-beam lithography into a track containing a set of notches. We find a DW resistance-area (RA) product of ~2.5 10^(-13) Ohm/m^2 at low temperature and bias, which is several orde…

Two types of optical metamaterials operating at near-IR and mid-IR frequencies, respectively, have been designed, fabricated by nanoimprint lithography (NIL), and characterized by laser spectroscopic ellipsometry. The structure for the near-IR range was a metal/dielectric/metal stack "fishnet" structure that demonstra…
