Measurements in three compounds of differing purity show that for the latent heats of blue phase transitions determined by high resolution and slow temperature scanning calorimetry (10 sup (-3 C/mi

Both chiral and racemic versions of 2-methylbutyl 4'-n-pentyloxy- biphenyl-4-carboxylate (2M45OBC) exhibit smectic A and smectic C phases.

Results of the first heat capacity measurements of free-standing liquid-crystal films are presented.

H I S paper is an account of direct calorimetric measurements of the energy dissipated at positive and negative electrodes when they are brought together to discharge a condenser.

Calorimetry, light scattering, and infrared spectrophotometry have been used to investigate the formation of silica gels from alkoxides.

The evolution of specific heat of a Pd40Ni40P20 glassy alloy subjected to different degrees of non-Newtonian flow condition near the glass transition temperature, T-g, was investigated by a differe

Thermal dissipation in power electronics systems is becoming an extremely important issue with the continuous growth of-power density in their components.

Even as features are added and enhanced on portable electronic devices communicating with wireless networks, e.g., cellular phones, packaging advances continue to reduce their size.

Piezoelectric fans are receiving increased interest for thermal management applications because of their reliability, minimal power consumption, and noise-free operation.

and power dissipation level are assessed with emphasis on asym- For the past several years, the trend in electronic equipment design has been toward ever-increasing circuit speeds.
