Switchable dispersivity and molecular-trapping performance of mesostructured CaCO3–thermosensitive polymer composite microspheres

Electrically switchable Fresnel lens using a polymer-separated composite film.

A Fresnel lens with electrically-tunable diffraction efficiency while possessing high image quality is demonstrated using a phase-separated composite film (PSCOF). The light scattering-free PSCOF is obtained by anisotropic phase separation between liquid crystal and polymer. Such a lens can be operated below 12 volts and its switching time is reasonably fast (~10 ms). The maximum diffraction ef...

Mesostructured Polymer Materials Based on Bicontinuous Microemulsions

Easy preparation and characterization of highly fluorescent polymer composite microspheres from aqueous CdTe nanocrystals.

Fluorescent microspheres were easily fabricated from aqueous CdTe nanocrystals (NCs). The NCs, which had negative charges on the surface, were first extracted to chloroform by cationic surfactant octadecyl-p-vinyl-benzyldimethylammonium chloride (OVDAC) and then swollen into performed polystyrene (PS) microspheres. Through this method, strong photoluminescence (PL) of aqueous NCs was inherited ...

the effects of planning on accuracy and complexity of iranian efl students’ written narrative task performance

this study compared the different effects of form-focused guided planning vs. meaning-focused guided planning on iranian pre-intermediate students’ task performance. the study lasted for three weeks and concentrated on eight english structures. forty five pre-intermediate iranian students were randomly assigned to three groups of guided planning focus-on-form group (gpfg), guided planning focus...

the effects of time planning and task complexity on accuracy of narrative task performance

هدف اصلی این تحقیق بررسی تاثیر برنامه ریزی زمانی، هم چنین افزایش میزان پیچیدگی تکالیف در نظر گرفته شده بصورت همزمان، بر دقت و صحت و پیچیدگی عملکرد نوشتاری زبان آموزان می باشد. بدین منظور، 50 نفر از دانش آموزان دختر در رده ی سنی 16 الی 18 سال به عنوان شرکت کنندگان در این زمینه ی تحقیق در نظر گرفته شدند و به دو گروه آزمایشی و کنترل بصورت اتفاقی تقسیم شدند. اعضای گروه آزمایشی هر دو تکلیف ساده و پی...
