Two novel cyanine-fullerene dyads have been synthesized by means of the Prato reaction from the corresponding cyanine-aldehyde, N-methylglycine and C60. As well as a thorough characterization using MS-TOF, 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR a ...
In this paper, we investigate lightning return stroke electromagnetic fields and induced voltages on nearby overhead lines associated with an inclined lightning channel. The study is based on the Antenna Theory (AT) model, which is appropriately extended t ...
Strain-field measurements and in situ polarized light microscopy have been used to evidence a hysteretic, irreversible electric-field-induced transition to a quasimonodomain rhombohedral phase in 111-oriented, pseudo-orthorhombic PZN-8PT [0.92Pb(Zn1/3 ...
Protrusion, the first step of cell migration, is driven by actin polymerization coupled to adhesion at the cell's leading edge. Polymerization and adhesive forces have been estimated, but the net protrusion force has not been measured accurately. We arrest ...
Pure perovskite Pb(Sc1/2Nb1/2)O-3 thin films without pyrochlore phase were prepared by the sol-gel method on TiO2/Pt/TiO2/SiO2/Si substrates. Films exhibited (111) preferred orientation and columnar microstructure. Diffuse phase transitions with permittivi ...
Two-phase liquid system IA(w)jIX(o) comprising the interface between the aqueous solution (w) of uni-univalent electrolyte IA and an organic solvent solution (o) of a uni-univalent electrolyte IX with the common cation I+ is considered as a simple model of ...
A high power density and high capacity primary or secondary electrochemical generator in which at least one electrode (1,2) is composed of an electrically active solid material, said electrode having a mesoporous texture forming a bicontinuous junction of ...
Disclosed is a photovoltaic cell comprising a substrate having an electrode layer (1) on the surface and having a porous metal oxide semiconductor film (2) which is formed on the electrode layer (1) and on which a photosensitizer is adsorbed, a substrate h ...
The electron temperature, pressure and density pro les from an extreme variety of shaped Ohmically heated sawtoothing plasmas in TCV ( Tokamak a Configuration Variable, B-T < 1.5T, R-0 = 0.88 m, a < 0.25 m) are compared to model predictions drawing from tw ...
Transparent nanostructured NiO electrodes were prepd. by heating Ni(OH)2 sol-gel films at 300-320°. Nanostructured NiO (bunsenite) behaves as a p-type semiconductor and has an indirect band gap of 3.55 eV. It shows a strong anodic electrochromic effect, as ...
