Raman spectroscopy is used to measure the strain in individual single-wall carbon nanotubes, strained by manipulation with an atomic-force-microscope tip. Under strains varying from 0.06%-1.65%, the in-plane vibrational mode frequencies are lowered by as much as 1.5% (40 cm(-1)), while the radial breathing mode (RBM)…
We studied frequency and temperature dependences of impedance, electric modulus, and dielectric permittivity of ${\mathrm{Bi}}_{2∕3}{\mathrm{Cu}}_{3}{\mathrm{Ti}}_{4}{\mathrm{O}}_{12}$ in the ranges of ${10}^{\ensuremath{-}1}--{10}^{6}\phantom{\rule{0.3em}{0ex}}\mathrm{Hz}$ and $\ensuremath{-}150--200\phantom{\rule{0.…
NK911 is a novel supramolecular nanocarrier designed for the enhanced delivery of doxorubicin (DXR) and is one of the successful polymer micelle systems to exhibit an efficient accumulation in solid tumours in mice. The purpose of this study was to define the maximum-tolerated dose (MTD) and dose-limiting toxicities (…
We produced single-crystalline Fe nanodot arrays grown in situ on a W(110) substrate in an ultrahigh vacuum system. An alumina shadow mask with perfectly ordered holes was used for Fe deposition. Polycrystalline Fe nanodots could be crystallized to single-domain nanodots by thermal annealing. After annealing, Fe wets…
Abstract We studied the space charge behavior in crosslinked polyethylene cable insulation with thermally stimulated depolarization current (TSDC). The role of the semiconducting layers of the cable in space charge formation was determined with several experiments carried out with two different cables. TSDC spectra we…
Electron-doped La1−xTexMnO3 thin films epitaxially grown on MgO substrates by laser molecular-beam epitaxy are studied. The samples have smooth surfaces, are single crystalline, and c-oriented. Spin–glass behavior of the films is observed at low temperature. Raman spectra of the samples show a significant change in th…
Well-ordered arrays of sub-80 nm high SrBi2Ta2O9 nanostructures were fabricated on SrTiO3:Nb (111) single-crystal substrates by latex sphere lithography. The as-prepared nanostructures have a pyramid-like shape with around 220 nm lateral dimension at half their height. After annealing, the pyramid-like shape changes d…
Bi 3.15 Nd 0.85 Ti 3 O 12 (BNdT) thin films were deposited on Pt∕Ti∕SiO2∕Si substrates using a sol-gel process. The film annealed at 750°C is composed of grains of 50–100nm in diameter. The fine grains show nearly random orientations. “Micropores” were frequently observed at the junctions of the grains and they are mo…
Dissociative adsorption has been widely simplified as part of the vapor–liquid–solid (VLS) growth model. We found that the addition of specific carrier gases can critically modify the growth rate and growth density of multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWNTs). These results were explained by dissociative adsorption of C2H2 m…
A previously unobserved ternary carbide, Nb3SiC2, belonging to the family of the so-called Mn+1AXn or MAX phases is predicted from first-principles calculations. It has a theoretical bulk modulus of 269Gpa, which is much higher than that of Ti3SiC2. The new phase is metastable with a formation energy of +0.02eV∕atom.…
The possibility to quantitatively analyze total electron yield (TEY) spectra as a measure of the x-ray absorption cross section from supported magnetic nanoparticles is explored by a combination of experiments and Monte Carlo simulations. Unless the particles are very small, it is found that saturation effects are imp…
The electrical properties of polymer-dispersed liquid crystals (PDLCs) are an important characteristic in their electro-optical performance. Conductivity effects can set up depolarization fields in the films reducing the effective field across the liquid crystal droplets. Both theoretical and experimental investigatio…
Abstract Single potassium dihydrogen phosphate (KDP) crystals were grown in a supersaturated solution containing an organic dye (sunset yellow FCF, brilliant blue FCF, and sky blue). The growth rate, morphology, and impurity dye distribution of faces, (100) and (101) in a KDP crystal were measured as dye concentration…
The effect of thermal annealing on switching kinetics of electrically fatigued bulk lead-zirconate-titanate ceramics is demonstrated. Fatigue induces stretched exponential switching behavior reaching time constants in the range of hours. In the final stages of fatigue, all switching is highly retarded. Thermal anneali…
Abstract Summary: A novel hyperbranched poly( β ‐ketoester) was synthesized from 2‐(acetoacetoxy)ethyl acrylate by the Michael addition in the presence of 1,8‐diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec‐7‐ene (DBU) as catalyst. 1 H NMR integration experiments revealed that the degree of branching in the poly( β ‐ketoester) was remarkabl…
Electric field-induced transformation of incommensurate modulations in a Sn-modified lead zirconate titanate ceramic was investigated with an electric field in situ transmission electron microscopy technique. It is found that the spacing between the (1∕x){110} satellite spots and the fundamental reflections do not cha…
Charge generation, transport, and recombination processes in UNIBOND® silicon-on-insulator wafers are studied via an optical second-harmonic generation (SHG) technique. The electric fields at the interfaces vary with time due to charge trapping. The presence of a thin native oxide layer on the top Si film contributes…
Thin films of MgO and BaTiO3 were deposited on (001) GaAs substrates using molecular beam epitaxy and pulsed laser deposition, respectively. X-ray diffraction scans indicate crystalline MgO and BaTiO3 thin films with preferential c-axis orientation. Capacitors fabricated from the BaTiO3∕MgO∕GaAs structures demonstrate…
Theoretical studies to investigate the effect of H absorption on the magnetic moment of small ${\mathrm{Fe}}_{n}$ and ${\mathrm{Co}}_{n}$ clusters have been carried out using gradient corrected density-functional approach. Our studies on clusters containing up to four transition metal and 2 H atoms show that the succe…
A method for the thiolation of single-wall carbon nanotubes has been developed by exposing a sulfur/carbon nanotubes mixture to an argon/hydrogen gaseous plasma. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy provides evidence of the existence of sulfur attached to carbon on the carbon nanotubes samples and Raman spectroscopy resul…
