Indium-doped ZnO (IZO) films with low In content (<6 at. %) were fabricated by rf helicon magnetron sputtering. The uniformity of the composites was confirmed by elemental analysis. The formation of an In–Zn–O solid solution was verified using X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns. A wide, high-transmittance region (400–20…
Poly(ethylene oxide)−polyacrylonitrile (PEO- b -PAN) diblock copolymers were synthesized and used as supramolecular templates for mesoporous silicas and precursors for mesoporous carbons. The copolymers were prepared from poly(ethylene oxide) homopolymers through chain extension with polyacrylonitrile (PAN) via atom t…
The hole story: Highly ordered anodic porous alumina with a hole interval of 13 nm was fabricated (see SEM image). The ordered structure of a 2D array of monodisperse γ-Fe2O3 nanoparticles was transferred to Al through the deposition of Al by sputtering. The formed shallow concaves on the Al surface could act as initi…
Some novel concepts of designing antireflection (AR) coatings with equivalent layers are presented. As an introduction, essential papers concerning thin-film optics and AR designs are cited, and the AR problem and a previously introduced AR-hard design type are discussed. Based on the known matrix formalism, a potenti…
A new polar hexaborate, K3[B6O10]Br (space group R3m), is synthesized under hydrothermal conditions. The radical anion is composed of macallisterite hexaborate blocks 6[3Δ + 3T] formed by boron triangles and boron tetrahedra. The blocks are joined together through vertices into a [B6O10] ∞∞∞ 2− zeolite-like framework…
To apply the knowledge of reaction mechanisms of heterogeneously catalyzed reactions on the atomic scale to supported catalyst systems, a detailed description of the structure of active particles on the atomic scale is required. In this article, a method is developed to construct atomic-scale geometric models for supp…
Abstract In this paper, the transmission properties of left‐handed microstrip lines implemented by etching complementary split rings resonators (CSRRs) and capacitive gaps in the ground plane and conductor strip, respectively, are investigated. To this end, we make use of the lumped element equivalent circuit model of…
To develop a microfocused x-ray source, field emission properties of a bundle of multiwalled carbon nanotubes were investigated under an ordinary vacuum pressure of 5×10−7Torr for a practical use. Total emission current reached up to 1.3mA at an applied voltage of −7kV. An emitted electron beam was focused on a Cu ano…
The self-assembly of oligo(o-phenylenediamine) (OPD) into 1-D nanostructures on a macroscopic length scale was found when they were transferred from N-methyl pyrrolidone to deionized water. Field emission scanning electron microscopy and confocal fluorescence microscopy were used to investigate the morphology of the p…
Zinc oxide (ZnO) surfaces with controllable structures (i.e, microstructure, nanostructure, and micronanobinary structure) have been created by controlling pH at < 4 or > 10.5 in the Zn(gray) + H2O2 reaction. The resulting surface shows superhydrophobicity. It is found that the water contact angle (CA) of the surface…
Abstract The nature, distribution and origin of clay minerals in the hydrocarbon-bearing Permian Rotliegend sandstones of the North Sea and the adjacent areas of the Netherlands and Germany are reviewed. The clay minerals occur as detrital coatings of smectite and smectite-illite on the surfaces of sandgrains, and as…
With a view to developing repellent materials combining both low surface energy and rough structure, original semi-fluorinated polythiophenes have been chemically and electrochemically synthesized and characterized by cyclic voltammetry, GPC, and UV-visible measurements. Polymer films have been deposited onto differen…
A single-component molecular conductor [Au(tmdt)2] (tmdt = trimethylenetetrathiafulvalenedithiolate) undergoes an antiferromagnetic phase transition at unprecedentedly high temperature (TN = 110 K). Black microcrystals of alloys, [Ni1-xAux(tmdt)2] (0.0 < x < 1.0) were prepared. The Au-rich system exhibited an antiferr…
Reversed micelles containing metallic ions have been used as precursors of novel catalysts for the gas-phase synthesis of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs). This technique possesses the following advantages: (i) excellent solubility in organic solvents, which are used as reactants and (ii) facile preparation of m…
Patterning silicon surfaces by well-ordered nanoperforated TiO(2) layers is achieved through a simple block copolymer-assisted liquid deposition technique followed by direct thermal treatment. The crater diameters are tuned between 10 and 50 nm, depending on the molecular weight of the surfactant patterning agent. The…
We have demonstrated a totally new liquid crystal display (LCD) mode using a smectic A-like phase of banana-shaped molecules. An in-plane electric field was applied to homeotropically aligned cells, resulting in fast polarization reorientation and the associated birefringence. The reported LCD mode has all the advanta…
The results of an analysis of the literature data obtained when investigating processes of charge transfer at interfaces of heterostructures formed by various methods, including the high-energy methods, are presented in this paper. The performed investigation of oxide layers at the titanium surface, with use made of i…
We investigate the quenching of the near infrared light emission in Er3+ complexes induced by the resonant dipolar interaction between the rare-earth ion and high frequency vibrations of the organic ligand. The nonradiative decay rate of the lanthanide ion is discussed in terms of a continuous medium approximation, wh…
Abstract This contribution aims at reviewing on very recent developments in syntheses, properties and (future) applications of polymer‐based nanocomposites filled with either organoclays and/or carbon nanotubes. Undoubtedly, the key‐challenge remains to reach a high level of nanoparticle dissociation (i.e., either to…
We demonstrate that a negative-permittivity material (silicon carbide) sandwiched between two layers of positive-permittivity material (silicon oxide) can be used for enhancement of the resolution of near-field imaging via the superlensing effect. The resulting three-layer metamaterial is also shown to exhibit an enha…
