The spectrum for rotational Steiner triple systems

We develop some recursive constructions for rotational Steiner triple systems with which the spectrum of a k-rotational Steiner triple system of order v is completely determined for each positive integer k. © 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.     

Characterizing Plasma-exposed In0.52Al0.48As Surface Using Photoreflectance-, Raman-, and Photoluminescence Spectra Method

We have performed Photoreflectance (PR), Raman Scattering (RS), and Photoluminescence (PL) experiments to characterize the In_0.52Al_0.48As surface exposed to plasma by a gas mixture of CH₄/H₂/Ar, PR spectra indicate that RIE (plasma) causes defects such as nonradiative recombination centers, scattering centers, and defects leading to the decrease of signal intensity, broaden line width and red shift of the transitions by increasing the rf power. In the Raman scattering study, RIE causes defects against InAs-like and AlAs-like LO modes vibration. As the rf power increased, the maximum of two LO modes shifts towards lower frequency and the line shape becomes increasingly asymmetric. Also, the intensity degrades gradually by disorder and point defects with increasing rf power. The PL transition energies show a red-shift with increasing the rf power. In addition, the spectral feature broadens, and the intensity decreases with rf power higher than 200 w. The consistence of the PL, PR, and RS results indicate that these three methods can be used as sensitive probes to evaluate the near surface damage of the epilayer.     

Gettering Properties of Praseodymium in GaAs,In0.53Ga0.47As,and InP Grown by Liquid Phase Epitaxy

The incorporation of praseodymium (Pr) into GaAs, In_0.53Ga_0.47As, and InP during liquid-phase epitaxy were investigated by double crystal x-ray diffraction, Hall effect, low temperature photoluminescence (PL) measurements. The lattice mismatch slightly vary with Pr concentration in the growth melts. Examinations of the electrical property illustrate that the lower carriers concentrations and a higher mobilities are obtain from Pr-doped epilayers than undoped sample (In_0.53Ga_0.47As and InP). The PL spectra (15-K) show that the intensity of the impurity related peaks decreases and the near-band-to-band luminescence intensity increase. They also reveal that the impurities are gettered by Pr ions during LPE growth. Thus, for the purpose of purification, proper amount of Pr in the growth melts is suggested. No intra-4f-shell transition line is observed from the Pr-doped GaAs, In_0.53Ga_0.47As, and InP layers.     

Polymerization of N-phenylmaleimide with rare earth coordination catalysts

A highly active rare earth coordination catalyst composed of neodymium acetylacetonate, dibutylmagnesium, and hexamethylphosphoramide (mole ratio 1:7:14) for the polymerization of N-phenylmaleimide (N-PMI) was developed. The resulting poly(N-PMI) has high molecular weight (M̄_n = 9.0 × 10⁴) and shows excellent thermal stability.     

Kinetic model of living radical polymerization

This work studies the kinetics of living radical polymerization by means of both the nonsteady state approach and the quasi-stationary state method. Expressions for the numberand weight-average degress of polymerization and the polydispersity index were derived. Numerical results show that the concentration of residual initiator seriously influences the polydispersity index of the resulting polymer. The calculated outcomes of the non-steady state approach are evidently different from those of the quasi-stationary state method when the magnitude of the rate constant of termination is comparable with that of the propagation rate constant, and the difference becomes negligible if the rate constant of the termination (k_t) is much larger than that of propagation (k_p). The polydispersity index of the resulting polymer increases with decreasing ratios of k_t to k_p or M_O to I_O (initial concentrations of monomer and initiator).

The role of cooling rate in crystallization-driven block copolymer self-assembly

Self-assembly of crystalline-coil block copolymers (BCPs) in selective solvents is often carried out by heating the mixture until the sample appears to dissolve and then allowing the solution to cool back to room temperature. In self-seeding experiments, some crystallites persist during sample annealing and nucleate the growth of core-crystalline micelles upon cooling. There is evidence in the literature that the nature of the self-assembled structures formed is independent of the annealing time at a particular temperature. There are, however, no systematic studies of how the rate of cooling affects self-assembly. We examine three systems based upon poly(ferrocenyldimethylsilane) BCPs that generated uniform micelles under typical conditions where cooling took pace on the 1–2 h time scale. For example, several of the systems generated elongated 1D micelles of uniform length under these slow cooling conditions. When subjected to rapid cooling (on the time scale of a few minutes or faster), branched structures were obtained. Variation of the cooling rate led to a variation in the size and degree of branching of some of the structures examined. These changes can be explained in terms of the high degree of supersaturation that occurs when unimer solutions at high temperature are suddenly cooled. Enhanced nucleation, seed aggregation, and selective growth of the species of lowest solubility contribute to branching. Cooling rate becomes another tool for manipulating crystallization-driven self-assembly and controlling micelle morphologies.

In the self-assembly of crystalline-coil block copolymers in solution, heating followed by different cooling rates can lead to different structures.
