The lattice thermal conductivities of TiCoSb-based half-Heusler alloys are presented in the temperature range between 300 and 900K. A phenomenological model calculation of the high-temperature lattice thermal conductivities of these alloys was derived based on the Klemens–Callaway theory [Phys. Rev. 119, 507 (1960); i…

We have reported the ionic relaxation for different compositions of $x{\mathrm{Ag}}_{2}\mathrm{O}\ensuremath{-}(1\ensuremath{-}x)\mathrm{Te}{\mathrm{O}}_{2}$ conducting glasses in wide temperature and frequency ranges. We have explained the composition dependence of the conductivity and the activation energy in terms…

Four different polypropylene (PP) resins are extruded using the tubular blown and cast film processes. The resin morphology is observed by SEM and the effect of extrusion processing variables on the morphology is investigated. Melt rheological experiments are also carried out to characterize the polymer melts. It has…

Zinc availability and mobility in soils is controlled by its interaction with the soil matrix and amendments. Contradicting evidence has been reported for factors influencing Zn behavior in soils. This study was conducted to investigate the effect of common cations and anions on Zn sorption and lability characteristic…

A single-phase β-sialon nanoceramic, Si5AlON7, has been prepared by high-energy mechanical milling, followed by spark plasma sintering. After milling, the starting powder mixture (Si3N4, AlN, Al2O3) was mostly transformed into an amorphous phase that contains a large number of well-dispersed nanocrystalline β-Si3N4 pa…

Abstract We report the synthesis and physical properties of novel fullerene–oligoporphyrin dyads. In these systems, the C‐spheres are singly linked to the terminal tetrapyrrolic macrocycles of rod‐like meso , meso ‐linked or triply‐linked oligoporphyrin arrays. Monofullerene–mono(Zn II porphyrin) conjugate 3 was synth…

Appreciable global efforts are underway to develop processes for fabricating three‐dimensional (3‐D) nanostructured assemblies for advanced devices. Widespread commercialization of such devices will require: (i) precise 3‐D fabrication of chemically tailored structures on a fine scale and (ii) mass production of such…

We have studied doping effects of hexagonal manganites ${\mathrm{Er}}_{1\ensuremath{-}x}{\mathrm{Y}}_{x}\mathrm{Mn}{\mathrm{O}}_{3}$, which are found to have 2D triangular spin structure for all the samples studied here. Upon doping Er at the Y site, the magnetic structure changes gradually from the ${\ensuremath{\Gam…

A high concentration of erbium doping was achieved in Y2O3 thin films on Si (100) by depositing Y2O3 alternatively with Er2O3 using radical-enhanced atomic layer deposition (ALD). Specifically, the erbium doping level was controlled by varying the ratio of Y2O3:Er2O3 cycles during deposition, and a 10:5 ratio yielded…

A staple from nickel‐titanium shape memory alloy for foot surgery was prepared by metal injection moulding (powder metallurgy). After a thorough characterisation with a multitude of physical, chemical, mechanical, and biological methods, the prototype appears to be well suited for clinical use where a shape‐memory eff…

The cross-plane thermal conductivity of Ge2Sb2Te5, either in its amorphous state or fcc crystallized state, and titanium nitride (TiN) thin films has been measured at room temperature by the 3ω method. These materials are involved in the fabrication of phase change random access memory (PC-RAM), Ge2Sb2Te5 and TiN bein…

Recent experimental results (Zheng et al 2004 Science 303 661) have shown that a 1-3-type BaTiO 3 –CoFe 2 O 4 composite film exhibited a strong coupling between the ferroelectric and ferromagnetic order parameters. The coupling interaction in the nanostructured multiferroic film could be different from that in a bulk…

A problem of screening of electron–electron interaction by LO phonons is investigated for bound two-electron systems in bulk semiconductors and semiconductor quantum dots. We consider a D − centre and a two-electron quantum dot and obtain the effective LO-phonon-induced interaction between the electrons, i.e., V eff (…

The structure and equation of state of low albite, NaAlSi 3 O 8 , has been determined using high-pressure single-crystal X-ray diffraction to a maximum pressure of 9.43 GPa. Low albite remains triclinic in space group C1̄ over the entire pressure range and no phase transitions were observed although the evolution of t…

Reaction of 3-aminopropylsilyl-modified ZnO microrods with trioctylphosphineoxide-coated CdSe/CdS core/shell nanocrystals in THF produces rod-shaped nanoparticle clusters that show directional photoemission that can be tuned with the size of the CdSe nanocrystals. The observed waveguiding effect of these microstructur…
