Electrochemical chlorination of azulene derivatives: Insight into the mechanism of anodic oxidative chlorination

The cyclic voltammetry behavior of a series of five 1-substituted azulenes has been investigated as well as the electrochemical chlorination of these compounds. In the case of azulene compounds containing electron withdrawing groups which have higher oxidation potentials than that of the chloride ion, the electrochemical chlorination led usually to 3-chloro derivatives. The electrochemical chlorination fails for azulenes with lower oxidation potentials. Additionally some polyhalogenated compounds were obtained by controlled potential electrolyses. The paper also discusses the reaction mechanism of the electrochemical halogenation of 1-substituted azulenes.     

Clustering based on median and closest string via rank distance with applications on DNA

This paper aims to present several clustering methods based on rank distance. Rank distance has applications in many different fields such as computational linguistics, biology and computer science. The K-means algorithm represents each cluster by a single mean vector. The mean vector is computed with respect to a distance measure. Two K-means algorithms based on rank distance are described in this paper. Hierarchical clustering builds models based on distance connectivity. This paper describes two hierarchical clustering techniques that use rank distance. Experiments using mitochondrial DNA sequences extracted from several mammals are performed to compare the results of the clustering methods. Results demonstrate the clustering performance and the utility of the proposed algorithms.     

Surface‐enhanced fluorescence of in situ synthesized polysilanesilver nanoparticles

To produce surface plasmons, silver nanoparticles are synthesized in situ in a pseudo‐template system based on polyhydrosilanes. Adsorption on the silver nanoparticle surface produces a thin layer of polymer with properties different from those of bulk polysilane. The metal‐adsorbed polymer layer serves as a spacer between the polysilane fluorophore and the plasmonic nanoparticle. This prevents quenching of the polysilane emission and leads to a strong surface‐enhanced fluorescence through coupling of surface plasmons having a resonance frequency that matches the emission frequency of the polymeric emitter.

Additively patterned ferroelectric thin films with vertical sidewalls

The functional properties of electroceramic thin films can be degraded by subtractive patterning techniques used for microelectromechanical (MEMS) applications. This work explores an alternative deposition technique, where lead zirconate titanate (PZT) liquid precursors are printed onto substrates in a desired geometry from stamp wells (rather than stamp protrusions). Printing from wells significantly increased sidewall angles (from ~1 to >35 degrees) relative to printing solutions from stamp protrusions. Arrays of PZT features were printed, characterized, and compared to continuous PZT thin films of similar thickness. Three‐hundred‐nanometer‐thick printed PZT features exhibit a permittivity of 730 and a loss tangent of 0.022. The features showed remanent polarizations of 26 μC/cm², and coercive fields of 95 kV/cm. The piezoelectric response of the features produced an e_31,f of ?5.2 C/m². This technique was also used to print directly atop prepatterned substrates. Optimization of printing parameters yielded patterned films with 90° sidewalls. Lateral feature sizes ranged from hundreds of micrometers down to one micrometer. In addition, several device designs were prepatterned onto silicon on insulator (SOI) wafers (Si/SiO₂/Si with thicknesses of 0.35/1/500 μm). The top patterned silicon was released from the underlying material, and PZT was directly printed and crystallized on the free‐standing structures.     

Bimaterial Four Point Bend Specimen with Sub-Interface Crack

Asymmetric four point bend specimens are often used for determination mode II fracture toughness. Different corrections were proposed to classical solution of Stress Intensity Factors for this specimen. This paper provides a solution for a bi-material four point specimen with sub-interface crack. The solutions were obtained using Finite Element Analysis, and the effect of crack distance to interface, crack length and materials combination were investigated.     

Pullulan: A versatile coating agent for superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles

Ultrasmall superparamagnetic iron oxide (Fe₃O₄) nanoparticles coated by biocompatible pullulan (Pu‐USPIO) with sizes below 10 nm and having a magnetite core and a hydrophilic outer shell of pullulan were prepared. The formed Pu‐USPIOs were thoroughly characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy, atomic force microscopy, and small‐angle X‐ray scattering experiments. The content of magnetic nanoparticles embedded into the pullulan matrix was determined by thermogravimetric analysis. Vibrating sample magnetometry analysis was used to evaluate the magnetic properties of the Pu‐USPIO samples. Because of the presence of pullulan, these nanoparticles could be conditioned in many versatile forms, from a clear solution to magnetic films, for potential applications, including magnetic hyperthermia mediators. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
