The valence band structure of the icosahedral $(i)$ Ag-In-Yb quasicrystal, which is isostructural to the binary $i\text{-Cd-Yb}$ system, is investigated by ultraviolet photoemission spectroscopy (UPS). Experimental results are compared with electronic-structure calculations of a cubic approximant of the same phase. UP…

The aim of the present study was to determine the influence of doping rare earth ion on strontium calcium aluminate (CaO–SrO–SiO 2 –Al 2 O 3 ). Therefore, the authors have manufactured luminescent material consisting of 40CaO–5SrO–5SiO 2 –50Al 2 O 3 doped with Dy 3+ . The compositions have been selected on the basis o…

The effect of incorporation of different types of accelerators i.e. TMTD, TMTM, DOTG and NPV/C on properties of NBR rubber was investigated. Without any organic accelerator it required long time to cure; tensile properties showed the least value but elasticity was the highest one and ageing properties were poor. Thiur…

Novel hexyl-substituted bisthiophene compounds containing a thiazolothiazole(5,4-d) unit have been explored. The molecules are soluble in common organic solvents, which would enhance their chance of possible integration in printable electronics.

We have systematically investigated structural and ferroelectric properties of A- and B-site co-doped BiFeO3 thin films using the composition spread technique. X-ray diffraction and polarization hysteresis loop measurements reveal that the co-doped (Bi,Sm)(Fe,Sc)O3 exhibits the structural transition from the rhombohed…

We report the influence of processing atmosphere on the evolution of oxide-embedded germanium nanocrystals (Ge-NCs) formed by the thermal processing of (C 6 H 5 GeO 1.5 ) n sol−gel polymers. In an inert processing atmosphere (100% Ar), the generation of elemental Ge from thermally induced disproportionation of the ger…

In this review we examine the use of reflection absorption infrared spectroscopy (RAIRS) as a tool for studying model catalyst surfaces. Model catalysts allow us to study the structural and physical properties of their surfaces at an atomic level in a controlled environment in order to gain a fundamental understanding…
