The domain wall movement and magnetization rotations processes are separated experimentally in quasi-static magnetization process of a Finemet type ultrasoft magnetic material. The reversible domain rotations contribution is obtained from the integration of the reversible permeability, μDR, as a function of biasing DC field, measured with very small alternative field amplitude, less than 0.05Hc...

The newly synthesized 5,10,15,20-tetra[3-(3-trifluoromethyl)phenoxy]porphyrin, TTFMPP, has been characterized using mass spectroscopy, 1H-, 13C- and 19F-NMR, MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry, UV-Vis and fluorescence spectrophotometry, and cyclic voltammetry. The NMR confirmed the structure of the compound and the mass spectrum was in agreement with the proposed molecular formula. The UV-Vis absorpti...

This study describes the effects of the substituents on electrochemical behavior and antioxidant activity of the three tetradentate Schiff bases, containing ethane-1,2- diamine, propane-1,3- diamine and butan-1,4- diamine as the amine part and salicylaldehyde, and corresponding Cd(II) complexes. Cyclic voltammograms of these compounds were recorded in dimethylsulfoxide and 0.1 M sodium perchlor...

A quasi in situ X-ray absorption study demonstrated that the disproportionation of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) promoted by ceria nanorods was associated with a reversible Ce(3+)/Ce(4+) reaction and structural transformations in ceria. The direction of this reversible reaction was postulated to depend on the H2O2 concentration and the fraction of Ce(3+) species in ceria nanorods.
