Organic donor-acceptor cocrystals for multiferroic applications by Wang, Zongrui, Zhang, Qichun

“…The cocrystallization strategy has provided an efficient route to fulfill room temperature magnetoelectricity in single phase owing to the long-range ordered π-π stacking (donor-acceptor assembled) network, long-lived excitons (with μs lifetime), spin orders (±1/2 s pin) and charge transfer (CT) dipoles in the assembled crystal lattice. …”

The Portevin-Le Chatelier effect of Cu-2.0Be alloy during hot compression by Zhu, Daibo, Wu, Na, Liu, Yang, Liu, Xiaojin, Jiang, Chaohua, Jiang, Yanbin, Zhao, Hongyun, Cui, Shuhui, Xie, Guilan

“…As the strain rate increases, the dislocations outpace the diffusion speed of the solute atoms, limiting their ability to effectively pin the dislocations, resulting in lower dislocation density and serration amplitude. …”

Surface modification of nanoscale energy electrodes using atomic layer deposition. by Hay, Zao Hiong.

“…In this thesis, the use of atomic layer deposition (ALD) was applied on hydrothermally grown rutile-TiO2 nanorods on fluorine-doped tin oxide (FTO), cultivating a nanorod array of anatase-rutile TiO2 heterojunctions. Thickness of the ALD thin film for optimal photocurrent generation and electron transport properties was determined through a series of photoelectrochemical tests and reflectivity and quantum efficiency (QE) plots. …”

Optimization and application of Epon SU-8, an ultra-thick negative photoresist by Tan, Khee Lip.

“…The aspect ratios easily exceed those encountered in submicron lithography for standard integrated circuit (IC) manufacturing. Unlike thin photoresist for IC manufacturing, lithography modelling and characterisation are not readily available for ultra-thick photoresist films.…”

Construction of quasi-ordered metal-organic frameworks superstructures via colloidal assembly of anisotropic particles for selective organic vapor sensing by He, Yuheng, Bai, Ling, Liu, Baocang, Duan, Hongwei, Zhang, Jun

“…The dynamic reflection spectral patterns exhibited by these superstructures provide valuable insights into the diffusion rates and surface tension characteristics of the target solvents. These findings underscore the potential of MOFs-based superstructure thin films to discriminate between physiochemically similar solvents, opening new avenues for applications in various fields.…”

Performance enhancement of ultrafiltration membrane via simple deposition of polymer-based modifiers by Tian, Miao, Wang, Rong, Goto, Atsushi, Mao, Weijia, Miyoshi, Yasuyuki, Mizoguchi, Hirotaka

“…In this work, a group of synthesized hydrophilic random copolymers and homopolymer were utilized to enhance PES UF membrane performance by a simple deposition of a thin layer. Despite the increased intrinsic resistance as a result of the thin modification layer, higher pure water permeability and recovery rate were observed for the modified Polyethersulfone (PES) membrane during Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA) fouling test in comparison to the virgin membrane. …”

On convection driven by surface tension caused by transient heat conduction by Tan, Ka Kheng, Thorpe, Rex B.

“…The onset of convection caused by surface tension (ST) during transient cooling of a thin layer of liquid is investigated. This study shows that it can be predicted by a newly defined transient Marangoni number Ma, which incorporates the mode and rate of cooling, where a non-linear temperature profile develops continuously until instability sets in. …”
