No full textapplication/pdf; "Approved by the Judicial Council December 3, 2010.""In March 2010, the Senate Judiciary Committee voted to refer 2010 SB 469 to the Judicial Council for study. The bill would create a state construction registry including new notice requirements for subcontractors and suppliers in commercial construction projects. The bill was generally supported by general contractors but opposed by subcontractors and suppliers. Senate Judiciary Chair Tim Owens asked the Council to "recommend a fair and equitable compromise." At the time the Senate Judiciary Committee referred the bill to the Council, Senator Owens also requested that the Council undertake a recodification of Kansas lien laws."
Lien on movable things
No full textPráce se zabývá problematikou "zástavního práva k movitým věcem", která se řídí zejména zákonem č. 89/2012 Sb., občanského zákoníku. Hlavním cílem práce je zpracovat přehledné kompendium obsahující základní informace o této problematice, které by čtenář mohl využít v budoucích právních vztazích. První kapitola se zabývá zástavním právem v rámci římského práva, kde se objevily první vývojové formy. Druhá kapitola je jádrem celé práce. Zprvu seznamuje čtenáře s výkladovými pojmy a s charakteristickými znaky zástavního práva k movitým věcem. Poté se kapitola věnuje vzniku, zániku a výkonu zástavního práva k movitým věcem. Třetí kapitola se zabývá rozdíly mezi zástavním právem k movitým věcem a zadržovacím právem, neboť se v obou případech jedná o zajišťovací instituty.ObhájenoThe thesis deals with the theme of "lien on movable things", which is based on Act No. 89/2012 Coll., Civil Code. The main aim of this thesis is to compile a synoptical compendium containing basic information about this theme, which the reader could use in future legal relations. The first chapter deals with the lien under Roman law, where they discovered the first developmental forms of lien. The second chapter is the main part of the thesis. At first it introduces the reader to the explanatory terms and to the typical characters of the lien on movable things. Then the chapter deals with the origins, extinction and realization of the lien on movable things. The third chapter deals with the differences between the lien on movable things and the right of retention, since in both cases these are hedging tools
Selective-Area MOCVD Growth and Carrier-Transport-Type Control of InAs(Sb)/GaSb Core-Shell Nanowires
No full textWe
report the first selective-area growth of high quality InAs(Sb)/GaSb
core–shell nanowires on Si substrates using metal–organic
chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) without foreign catalysts. Transmission
electron microscopy (TEM) analysis reveals that the overgrowth of
the GaSb shell is highly uniform and coherent with the InAs(Sb) core
without any misfit dislocations. To control the structural properties
and reduce the planar defect density in the self-catalyzed InAs core
nanowires, a trace amount of Sb was introduced during their growth.
As the Sb content increases from 0 to 9.4%, the crystal structure
of the nanowires changes from a mixed wurtzite (WZ)/zinc-blende (ZB)
structure to a perfect ZB phase. Electrical measurements reveal that
both the n-type InAsSb core and p-type GaSb shell can work as active
carrier transport channels, and the transport type of core–shell
nanowires can be tuned by the GaSb shell thickness and back-gate voltage.
This study furthers our understanding of the Sb-induced crystal-phase
control of nanowires. Furthermore, the high quality InAs(Sb)/GaSb
core–shell nanowire arrays obtained here pave the foundation
for the fabrication of the vertical nanowire-based devices on a large
scale and for the study of fundamental quantum physics

Origin of the low thermal conductivity of the thermoelectric material beta-Zn(4)Sb(3): An ab initio theoretical study
No full textBy modeling beta-Zn(4)Sb(3) material as a Zn(36)Sb(30) crystal with defects, the crystal structure and thermal properties of beta-Zn(4)Sb(3) are studied by ab initio method to explain its extremely low thermal conductivity at moderate temperature. The formation and migration energies of defects are calculated and used to explain the partial occupation of Zn at the lattice sites, the disordered local structures and the origin of the low thermal conductivity of beta-Zn(4)Sb(3). Our study also unravels the puzzling dependence of thermal conductivity on doping in beta-Zn(4)Sb(3). A doping strategy is proposed to improve the thermoelectric performance of beta-Zn(4)Sb(3).

Stability of Sb-Te layered structures: First-principles study
Get PDFUsing an effective one-dimensional cluster expansion in combination with first-principles electronic structure calculations we have studied the energetics and electronic properties of Sb-Te layered systems. For a Te concentration between 0 and 60 at. % an almost continuous series of metastable structures is obtained consisting of consecutive Sb bilayers next to consecutive Sb2Te3 units, with the general formula (Sb2)n(Sb2Te3)m (n,m=1,2,...). Between 60 and 100 at. % no stable structures are found. We account explicitly for the weak van der Waals bonding between Sb bilayers and Sb2Te3 units by using a recently developed functional, which strongly improves the interlayer bonding distances. At T=0 K, no evidence is found for the existence of two separate single-phase regions ? and ? and a two-phase region ?+?. Metastable compounds with a Te concentration between 0 and 40 at. % are semimetallic, whereas compounds with a Te concentration between 50 and 60 at. % are semiconducting. Compounds with an odd number of Sb layers are metallic and have a much higher formation energy than those with an even number of consecutive Sb layers, thereby favoring the formation of Sb bilayers.Materials Science and EngineeringMechanical, Maritime and Materials Engineerin
Legal and Financial Problems of International Joint Custody of Children
Get PDFThe aim of this article is to analyze very interesting and currently up-to-date area of children living in international joint custody from the legal and financial point of view. This covers the situation when custody of a child is awarded to both parents living in different states of the European Union (or also other states). The number of marriages contracted between Czech nationals and foreign nationals and also between nationals from two different states (not necessarily inside European Union) increases every year while free movement of people is a real practice today. Because these international marriages are becoming more common they bring new problems that must be solved by contemporary law. This regulation needs to result from the knowledge of the children psychology that is affecting family law the most but also has its practical aspects in the area of taxation and payment issues that will be analyzed deeply as well.juridical problems, financial problems, international joint custody, family.
Nonlinear influence of excess Mn on the magnetoelastic transition in (Mn,Cr)<sub>2</sub>Sb
No full textThe influence of excess Mn on the magnetoelastic ferromagnetic-to-antiferromagnetic transition Tt in the magnetocaloric compound (Mn,Cr)2Sb has been studied. With increasing excess Mn the magnetoelastic transition temperature for (Mn,Cr)2Sb initially increases and then decreases. This trend is accompanied by a strong reduction of the (Mn,Cr)Sb secondary phase. With increasing excess Mn a higher Cr content was found in the (Mn,Cr)Sb secondary phase in comparison to the matrix phase. This competition for Cr leads to a nonlinear dependence of Tt with increasing excess Mn at a fixed nominal Cr content. However, we observed that Tt depends linear on the c/a ratio for a wide range of temperatures from 170 to 350 K. A compositional diagram of the c/a ratio was constructed to assist the selection of (Mn,Cr)2Sb alloys with a desired transition temperature.RST/Fundamental Aspects of Materials and Energ
Fabrication and properties of Sb-doped ZnO thin films grown by radio frequency (RF) magnetron sputtering
No full textSb-doped and undoped ZnO thin films were deposited on Si (100) substrates by radio frequency (RF) magnetron sputtering. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analyses revealed that all the films had polycrystalline wurtzite structure and c-axis preferred orientation. Room temperature Hall measurements showed that the as-grown films were n-type and conducting (rho similar to 1-10 Omega cm). Annealing in a nitrogen ambient at 400 degrees C for 1 h made both samples highly resistive (rho > 10(3) Omega cm). Increasing the annealing temperature up to 800 C, the resistivity of the ttndoped ZnO film decreased gradually, but it increased for the Sb-doped ZnO film. In the end, the Sb-doped ZnO film annealed at 800 C became semi-insulating with a resistivity of 10(4)Omega cm. In addition, the effects of annealing treatment and Sb-doping on the structural and electrical properties are discussed. (c) 2006 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved
