The master sintering curve approach represents densification data in terms of a master variable that combines sintering time and temperature. Recently, a finite‐element scheme to predict sintering deformation that requires only the master sintering curve instead of a full constitutive law as the input data has been de…

We predict the photoswitching magnetic properties of four substituted dihydropyrenes from density functional broken-symmetry calculations. The magnetic exchange coupling constants differ up to 9.44 cm(-1). The intramolecular exchange interactions are ferromagnetic in nature. The calculated coupling constants are much…

Solid-state synthesis of boron subnitride, B 6 N, as a result of chemical interaction between boron and boron nitride at 7.5 GPa and 1700 °C has been previously reported by Hubert et al. However, a critical analysis of the results has shown that the evidence for the formation of boron subnitride with B 6 O-like struct…

This paper deals with the physical and the chemical gelation of gelatin in the presence of a reactant, bisvinyl sulfonemethyl (BVSM). The strategy of this investigation is to separate the contributions of the two types of cross-links in order to deduce the resultant elasticity of the network. In addition, the question…

To stabilize platinum clusters on carbon supports, carbon substituted boron dopants were introduced in graphite and fullerene models, and the binding energies of Pt(1) to Pt(6) clusters on the carbon supports were investigated using first-principles density functional theory (DFT) calculations. The adsorption energies…

Multiporphyrin dendrimers are among the most promising architectures to mimic the oxygenic light-harvesting complex because of their structural similarities and synthetic convenience. The overall geometries of dendrimers are determined by the core structure, the type of dendron, and the number of generations of interi…

Room temperature Mössbauer, X-ray and IR spectral studies were carried out for the spinel system Mn0.5Zn0.5AlxFeO4, , prepared using the usual ceramic technique. X-ray patterns confirm that all samples have single phase cubic spinel structure. The Mössbauer spectra of the samples show a six-line magnetic pattern and a…

Driven by capillary force, wet carbon nanotube (CNT) arrays have been found to reorganize into cellular structures upon drying. During the reorganization process, individual CNTs are firmly attached to the substrate and have to lie down on the substrate at cell bottoms, forming closed cells. Here we demonstrate that b…

Ge nanocrystallites (Ge-nc) embedded in a SiO(2) matrix are investigated using Raman spectroscopy, photoluminescence and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The samples were prepared by ion implantation with different implantation doses (0.5, 0.8, 1, 2, 3 and 4) × 10(16) cm(-2) using 250 keV energy. After implant…

A series of novel star-shaped porphyrin-triarylamine conjugates were synthesized by palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions. The spectroscopic and electrochemical studies show that pi-conjugation of the porphyrin core is extended to the triarylamine moieties.

A core–shell cylinder phase is obtained from the self assembly of chiral diblock copolymers, polystyrene-b-poly(L-lactide) (PS–PLLA) with PLLA-rich fractions. After the self-assembly of the polymer chains, scrolling of the helical microdomains results in core–shell cylinder microstructures (see figure). The microstruc…
