Effect of chemical substitution at the para-position of the thiophenoxyl radical has been theoretically investigated in terms of energetics, structures, charge densities and orbital shapes for the ground and first electronically excited states. It is found that the adiabatic energy gap increases when $CH_3$ or F is substituted at the para-position. This change is attributed to the stabilization of the ground state of thiophenoxyl radical through the electron-donating effect of F or $CH_3$ group as the charge or spin of the singly-occupied molecular orbital is delocalized over the entire molecule especially in the ground state whereas in the excited state it is rather localized on sulfur and little affected by chemical substitutions. Quantitative comparison of predictions based on four different quantum-mechanical calculation methods is presented.

In this paper we show that the Koecher's Jordan automorphic generators of one variable on an irreducible symmetric cone are enough to determine the elements of scalar multiple of the Jordan identity on the attached simple Euclidean Jordan algebra. Its various geometric, Jordan and Lie theoretic interpretations associated to the Cartan-Hadamard metric and Cartan decomposition of the linear automorphisms group of a symmetric cone are given with validity on infinite-dimensional spin factors

An effect of the spin-orbit coupling interaction of ligand orbitals and the intermixing │3d 〉and│4p > transition metal atomic orbitals on the ground state for a 3$d^9$ system in a strong crystal field of tetragonally distorted tetrahedral symmetry that belongs to the $D_{2d}$ point group has been investigated in this work, applying the degenerate perturbation theory. An LCAO-MO analysis in terms of the known energies of the d-d transitions for the tetragonally distorted $CuCl_4^{2-}$ ion in a single crystal of$Cs_2CuCl_4$shows that the covalent mixing of Cu 3d and ligand Cl 3p orbitals decreases dramatically with increasing Cu 4p contribution. The extent of effect on the energy level splitting for the ground state by the spin-orbit coupling interaction of ligand orbitals decreases significantly in orderTEX>$\Gamma_7(E)\;\to\;\Gamma_6(E)\; >\;\Gamma_7(B_2)\;\to\;\Gamma_6(E)\; >\;\Gamma_7(B_2)\;\to\;\Gamma_7(E)$.

In this study, HEMA-based hydrophilic copolymers were synthesized and dielectric constant (K) of the polymer thin films were investigated by change hydroxyl group (-OH) ratio in the polymer chain. The different hydroxyl group ratios were characterized by FT-IR and its thin films were obtained by spin coating. As a result, due to the moisture absorption of the hydrophilic thin film, the dielectric constant has been increased as was expected. The highest dielectric constant (K=4.19, @1MHz) was observed at 40% hydroxyl group ratio among the several polymers.

Indium tin oxide (ITO) nanopowders were synthesized by coprecipitation and the sol-gel method to prepare a stable dispersion of ITO nano-colloid for antistatic coating of a display panel. The colloidal dispersions were prepared by attrition process with a vibratory milling apparatus using a suitable dispersant in organic solvent. The ITO coating solution was spin-coated on a glass panel followed by the deposition of partially hydrolyzed alkyl silicate as an over-coat layer. The double-layered coating films were characterized by measuring the sheet resistance and reflectance spectrum for antistatic and antireflective properties.

The main goal was to evaluate effectiveness of a modified TSE sequence compared with DIR (double inversion recovery) sequence in acquisition of fast flow brain vessel images using signal void effect. 32 healthy volunteers (10 men and 22 women; mean age of 31 years; ranging between 28-43 years) who underwent black blood DIR sequence (group A) and the modified TSE sequence (group B) were enrolled in our study. Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR) and Contrast to Noise Ratio (CNR) of the internal carotid arteries' lumen were compared in T1 and T2 weighted images for both group A and B. The images obtained from group B showed lower SNR values in internal carotid artery than the group A in both of the T1 and T2 weighted images (11.49% and 13.66% respectively). While the CNR values were higher in the group B than the group A in both of the T1 and T2 weighted images (8.69% and 7.55 % respectively). The qualitative score of all categories were not significantly different between the two groups. Furthermore approximately 49% of the total scan time was reduced from group B. Our study is to shorten the scanning time and minimize the inconveniences of the patients in acquisition of the black blood images of brain by using the signal void effect in the modified TSE technique while keeping the diagnostic value of the test.

Objective : The purpose of this study was to investigate the prevalence of social anxiety disorder (SAD) and its association with psychosocial factors including self-esteem, ego-resiliency, and social support in a sample of medical students. Methods : A total of 405 medical students were included in this study. Subjects were asked to complete a self-reported questionnaire, measures of the Social Phobia Inventory (SPIN), the Rosenberg's Self-Esteem Scale (RSES), the Ego-Resiliency Scale (ERS), and the Duke-UNC Functional Social Support Questionnaire (DUFSS). The SAD and non-SAD group were defined using the SPIN score of 25 as a cut-off. The multiple regression analyses were performed to examine the association of self-esteem, ego-resiliency, and social support with SAD symptoms. Results : A total of 79 subjects (19.5%) were identified with SAD. The total RSES score, ERS score, and DUFSS score were significantly lower in the SAD group than the non-SAD group. The total SPIN score negatively correlated with the total RSES score (r=-0.481, p<0.001), the ERS score (r=-0.417, p<0.001), and the DUFSS score (r=-0.406, p<0.001). In the multiple regression, SAD symptoms were associated with self-esteem (β=-0.549, p<0.001), ego-resiliency (β=-0.395, p<0.001), and social support (β=-0.346, p<0.001). Conclusion : This study revealed the prevalence of SAD and its negative association with self-esteem, ego-resiliency, and social support among medical students. Our findings indicate that improving self-esteem and ego-resiliency as well as perceived social support may contribute to the management of SAD symptoms among medical students.

For an industrial spin-transfer torque (STT) MRAM, low switching current and high thermal stability are required, simultaneously. For this point of view, it is essential to find magnetic materials which satisfy high spin polarization and strong perpendicular magnetocrystalline anisotropy (MCA). In this paper, we investigate electronic structures and MCA energies of perovskite $CoFeX_3$ (X = O, F, S, Cl). For X = F and Cl, spin polarization at the Fermi level are 97 % and 96 %, respectively, which are close to a half metal. Furthermore, Co-terminated 5-monolayer (ML) $CoFeX_3$ (X = O, F, S, Cl) films show perpendicular MCA. In particular, the MCA energy of the Co-terminated $CoFeCl_3$ is about 1.0 meV/cell which is three times larger than that of a 5-ML CoFe film. Therefore, we expect to realize a magnetic material with high spin polarization and strong perpendicular MCA energy by utilizing group 6 and 7 elements in the periodic table, and to contribute to commercializing of the STT-MRAM.

In this paper, a brief overview of nanocrystallites of metal and semi-conductor materials will be presented, and then the novel synthetic method of high quality CdSe nanocrystallites developed by Bawendi group at MIT will be introduced . It will be shown that results of optical properties of surface modified nanocrystallites give the evidence that the luminescence of CdSe nanocrystallites is not originated from surface related trap states, but from intrinsic spin forbidden core states. Some of the interesting applications of CdSe nano-crystallites will also be discussed at the end.

We review work performed by our group and collaborators in the area of exciton formation. There are three components: (i) measurement of singlet fractions, (ii) analysis of magnetic resonance measurements, and (iii) models of exciton formation. We find that the fraction of singlet excitons is a controllable quantity, pointing the way to a new generation of all-fluorescent organic light emitting devices.
