Double resonance response in nonlinear magnetic vortex dynamics
2013
We present experimental evidences for the dynamical bifurcation behavior of ac-driven magnetic vortex core gyration in a ferromagnetic disk. The dynamical bifurcation, i.e., appearance and disappearance of two stable dynamical states in the vortex gyration, occurring as the amplitude of the driving Oersted field increases to ${B}_{Oe}g{B}_{Oe}^{cr}$, manifests itself in a double resonance response in the dependence of homodyne the dc-voltage signal on the frequency $\ensuremath{\omega}$ of the applied microwave current. We find that the frequency range $\ensuremath{\delta}\ensuremath{\omega}$ between the two resonance features strongly increases with the excitation power. Our analysis based…
Piezo-electrical control of gyration dynamics of magnetic vortices
2019
In this work, we first statically image the electrically controlled magnetostatic configuration of magnetic vortex states and then we dynamically image the time-resolved vortex core gyration tuned by electric fields. We demonstrate the manipulation of the vortex core gyration orbit by engineering the magnetic anisotropies. We achieve this by electric fields in a synthetic heterostructure consisting of a piezoelement coupled with magnetostrictive microstructures, where the magnetic anisotropy can be controlled by strain. We directly show the strong impact of the tailored anisotropy on the static shape of the vortex state and the dynamic vortex core orbit. The results demonstrate the possibil…
Synthesis and solution properties of star-shaped poly(tert-butyl acrylate)
2000
A series of star polymers consisting of poly(tert-butyl acrylate) arms and an ethyleneglycol dimethacrylate (EGDMA) microgel core were synthesized using anionic polymerization. The effect of various parameters (precursor length, ratio [[EGDMA]/[Initiator], reaction time, and overall concentrations) on the average number of arms was investigated. Molecular weights were determined using GPC coupled with an online viscometer and MALLS. The exponents for the relation between intrinsic viscosity or radius of gyration and molecular weight, respectively, are extremely low, indicating that the dimensions of the star polymers only slightly increase with the number of arms. After a certain number of …
Static and Dynamic Properties of a n-C100H202 Melt from Molecular Dynamics Simulations
1997
We present in this work results from atomistic molecular dynamics simulations of a n-C100H202 melt. This work represents a first effort to simulate a fully equilibrated ensemble of chains of suffic...
Über die verzweigung von polydodecylmethacrylat
1970
Zur Untersuchung der Losungseigenschaften und des Ausmases der Verzweigung von radikalisch gewonnenem Polydodecylmethacrylat wurden Fraktionen von niedrig- und hochumgesetzten Praparaten im Molekulargewichtsbereich von 1,5·105 bis 8·106 auf ihr Molekulargewicht und ihre Knaueldimension hin vermessen. Die Methoden der Lichtstreuung, der Viskosimetrie, der Sedimentation in der Ultrazentrifuge, der Osmometrie und der Gelchromatographie wurden benutzt. Fur die Streulichtmessungen diente ein Eigenbaulichtstreuungsgerat, das wegen seines grosen Winkelmesbereiches eine recht genaue Festlegung der Anfangssteigung der Streukurve und damit des Tragheitsradius ermoglicht. Das Quadrat des Tragheitsradi…
Untersuchungen über das Reibungsverhalten von Polymethacrylsäuremethylestern in verschiedenen Lösungsmitteln
1963
An drei Polymethacrylsauremethylester-Fraktionen wurden Sedimentationskoeffizienten, Diffusionskoeffizienten und Viskositatszahlen im Θ-Losungsmittel n-Butylchlorid und in den guten Losungsmitteln Aceton und Dioxan gemessen. Die Reibungszahl [f] = kT/Dη0 ist der Ausdehnung des Knauels proportional. Mit dem Tragheitsradius R gilt [f] = Ψ·R, worin der Faktor Ψ von der Gute des Losungsmittels abhangt. Experimentell wurde am Θ-Punkt ΨΘ = 15,5 gefunden. Hydrodynamische Rechnungen verschiedener Autoren ergeben dagegen ΨΘ = 12,5. In den beiden guten Losungsmitteln fanden wir Ψ ≈ 13. Fur alle Losungsmittel last sich Ψ als Funktion des Exponenten a der Viskositats-Molekulargewichtsbeziehung [η] = Kη…
Three-step decay of time correlations at polymer-solid interfaces
2012
Two-step decay of relaxation functions, i.e., time scale separation between microscopic dynamics and structural relaxation, is the defining signature of the structural glass transition. We show that for glass-forming polymer melts at an attractive surface slow desorption kinetics introduces an additional time scale separation among the relaxational degrees of freedom leading to a three-step decay. The inherent length scale of this process is the radius of gyration in contrast to the segmental scale governing the glass transition. We show how the three-step decay can be observed in incoherent scattering experiments and discuss its relevance for the glass transition of confined polymers by an…
The Allosteric Effector l-Lactate Induces a Conformational Change of 2×6-meric Lobster Hemocyanin in the Oxy State as Revealed by Small Angle X-ray S…
2001
Abstract Hemocyanins are multisubunit respiratory proteins found in many invertebrates. They bind oxygen highly cooperatively. However, not much is known about the structural basis of this behavior. We studied the influence of the physiological allosteric effectorl-lactate on the oxygenated quaternary structure of the 2×6-meric hemocyanin from the lobster Homarus americanus employing small angle x-ray scattering (SAXS). The presence of 20 mm l-lactate resulted in different scattering curves compared with those obtained in the absence of l-lactate. The distance distribution functionsp(r) indicated a more compact molecule in presence ofl-lactate, which is also reflected in a reduction of the …
Sodium bis(2-ethylhexyl)sulfosuccinate self-aggregation in vacuo: molecular dynamics simulation.
2010
Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations were conducted for systems in vacuo consisting of n AOT(-) anions (bis(2-ethylhexyl)sulfosuccinate ions) and n+/- 1 or n Na(+) ions up to n = 20. For n = 15, positively charged systems with Li(+), K(+), and Cs(+) cations were also considered. All systems were observed to form reverse micelle-like aggregates whose centre is occupied by cations and polar heads in a very compact solid-like way, while globally the aggregate has the form of an elongated and rather flat ellipsoid. Various types of statistical analyses were carried out on the systems to enlighten structural and dynamical properties including gyration radius, atomic pair correlation functions, at…
Scaling theory for radial distributions of star polymers in dilute solution in the bulk and at a surface, and scaling of polymer networks near the ad…
1991
Monomer density profiles ρ(r) and center–end distribution functions g(rCE) of star polymers are analyzed by using a scaling theory in arbitrary dimensions d, considering dilute solutions and the good solvent limit. Both the case of a free star in the bulk and of a center‐adsorbed star at a free surface are considered. In the latter case of a semi‐infinite problem, a distinction is made between repulsive walls, attractive walls—where for large arm length l the configuration of the star is quasi‐(d−1) dimensional—, and ‘‘marginal walls’’ where for l→∞ the transition from d‐dimensional structure occurs. For free stars, ρ(r) behaves as r−d+1/ν for small r, where ν is the exponent describing the…
