Dielectric properties and morphology of nanocomposites based on poly(2-vinylpyridine-co-styrene) (P2V-S) as a matrix and multiwall carbon nanoubes (MWCNTs) as nanofillers are investigated. Nanotube-polymer interactions are evaluated by Raman and Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR). The molecular dynamics is investigated in the wide frequency (10-2-10-6 Hz) and temperature range by...

Surfaces and interfaces are waveguides for some kinds of waves. The Stoneley wave occurs on the interface of perfectly bonded isotropic elastic materials [1]. The kind of waves are of importance e.g in geoscience [2] and in the design of delay lines in acoustical waveguides [3]. Whereas the surface Rayleigh wave exists on all free surfaces of elastic media, the range of existence of the...

Contemporary LCD industry is still looking for new materials with very specific physical properties. The azobenzene moiety is very comfortable fragment in designing and synthesis of new structures, giving stable mesophase often with very interesting polymorphism. Additional useful property of azobenzenes for modern optics is their photosensitivity, which allows to design materials...

Any acoustic signal extinguishes progressively due to multiple reflections from the walls and different objects in the room. The effect is called reverberation. The reverberation time may affect significantly the intelligibility of speech and music [1]. Numerical and electronic sound synthesis allows one to model the reverberation by the convolution of the signal with the appropriate impulse...

Liquid crystals containing azo moiety are extensively studied group of compounds. Main reason of this situation are their interesting physicochemical as well as optical properties. An important role in the azobenzene derivatives studies plays the photosensitivity [1], through which the trans-cis-trans isomerization of -N=N- group is possible. Highly developed optoelectronic industry is looking...

When encountering a mismatch of characteristic impedance a bulk acoustic wave transforms into up to three reflected and refracted waves of different polarizations. The effect is known as mode conversion [1]. The lack of the specularly reflected wave is called total mode conversion because then all the outgoing waves propagate at speeds different than that of the incident one. Conversely, if...

One of the possible applications of magnetic molecular clusters is using them for magnetic refrigeration in the low and ultra-low temperature range. Due to the high spin values S shown by some molecules, the total molar magnetic entropy Smax=Rln(2S+1) (R is a gas constant) is large and the isothermal entropy change ∆S on the change of...
