Quantifying the triboelectric series
Triboelectrification is a well-known phenomenon that commonly occurs in nature and in our lives at any time and any place. Although each and every material exhibits triboelectri...
Alterations of Single Molecule Fluorescence Lifetimes in Near-Field Optical Microscopy
Fluorescence lifetimes of single Rhodamine 6G molecules on silica surfaces were measured with pulsed laser excitation, time-correlated single photon counting, and near-field sca...
Scanning force microscopy three-dimensional modes applied to the study of the dielectric response of adsorbed DNA molecules
We have developed a set of working modes for scanning probe microscopy (SPM), which generalizes the usual method of acquiring data. We call these modes three-dimensional (3D) mo...
Preparation and characterization of a nanoscale poly(vinyl alcohol) fiber aggregate produced by an electrospinning method
Abstract Nanoscale poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) fiber (100–500 nm) aggregates were prepared with an electrospinning technique. Additionally, a chemical crosslinking method was used...
Solitons in Polyacetylene
We present a theoretical study of soliton formation in long-chain polyenes, including the energy of formation, length, mass, and activation energy for motion. The results provid...
