Phenomenological Implications of the Topflavor Model
We explore phenomenologies of the topflavour model for the LEP experiment at
scale and the atomic parity violation (APV) experiment in the
atoms at low energies. Implications of the model on the peak data are
studied in terms of the precision variables 's. We find that the
LEP data give more stringent constraints on the model parameters than the APV
data.Comment: 23 pages (including 5 .eps figs), ReVTeX, the 1st revised version, to

Approximate Flavour Symmetries and See-Saw Mechanism
We study the approximate flavour symmetries imposed on the lepton sector
assuming see-saw mechanism as the neutrino mass structure. We apply the
symmetry to various neutrino phenomenologies and obtain constraints on neutrino
masses and mixings.Comment: 10 pages, RevTex, 2 PS figures (uuencoded in seperate file). To

Form Factors for Exclusive Semileptonic --Decays
We developed the new parton model approach for exclusive semileptonic decays
of -meson to by extending the inclusive parton model, and by
combining with the results of the HQET, motivated by Drell-Yan process. Without
the nearest pole dominance ans\"atze, we {\bf derived} the dependences of
hadronic form factors on . We also calculated numerically the slope of the
Isgur-Wise function, which is consistent with the experimental results.Comment: 20 pages, RevTex, 2 ps figure files(uuencoded in seperate file
Well-defined donor-acceptor rod-coil diblock copolymers based on P3HT containing C-60: the morphology and role as a surfactant in bulk-heterojunction solar cells
The synthesis of well-defined rod-coil block copolymers consisting of P3HT donor and C-60 acceptor chromophores (P3HT-b-P(S(x)A(y))-C-60) in a molecular architecture is reported for use in bulk-heterojunction (BHJ) solar cells. In thin films of the resulting block copolymer, reproducible self-assembly into well-defined "nanofibrils'' is observed. This is the first example of a block copolymer containing a C-60 derivative that shows exclusively a nanofibrilar structure. We have investigated the potential utility of the block copolymer as a "surfactant'' for controlling the interface morphology of the P3HT: PCBM donor-acceptor phase domains within the composite. We find a substantial improvement in device performance when 5% of block copolymer are introduced to the P3HT: PCBM blend system, resulting in ca. 35% improved efficiency relative to the P3HT: PCBM solar cell fabricated without the "surfactant''.close13212
