Indium oxide (In2O3) thin films doped with either germanium or silicon were prepared by using a radio-frequency magnetron sputtering method. The target was the In2O3 powder mixed with either Ge or Si powder. The resistivities of the films were compared with that of the film doped with tin (ITO). The Ge and Si dopings…
We have studied focused electron beam induced deposition from W(CO)6 at beam primary energies between 20 and 0.06 keV. Submicrometer resolution with 4 nA beam current was maintained at very low primary energies using a retarding field configuration. Decomposition cross sections of W(CO)6 for primary energies below abo…
We report the vapor phase growth of partially filled graphitic fibers, 20-30 nm in diameter and up to a micron in length, during a manganese catalyzed carbon electric arc discharge. The fiber morphology resembles that of catalytic chemical vapor deposited carbon filaments but the inside hollow contains intermittent pr…
The ability to control structural dimensions below 5 nm is essential for a systematic study of the optical and electrical properties of Si nanostructures. A combination of electron beam lithography, NF3 reactive ion etching, and dry thermal oxidation has been successfully implemented to yield 2-nm-wide Si nanowires wi…

Abstract The effect of the molecular weight and acrylonitrile (AN) content of the styrene–acrylonitrile copolymer (SAN) on the morphology, mechanical properties, and rheological properties of acrylonitrile–butadiene–styrene terpolymer/poly(methyl methacrylate) (ABS)/PMMA (60/40 by weight) blends were studied. When the…
Indium oxide films with an electrical resistivity of less than 1.5×10−4 Ω cm and good optical quality were prepared by the reactive ion plating of pure indium in an oxygen atmosphere of ∼10−4 Torr. The deposition rate was in the range of 500–900 Å/min, which is much higher than that of the ordinary evaporation. Hall e…
Crystal-field parameters (B k,m ) were obtained for LaOBr doped with Tm 3+ from the analysis of luminescence spectra. The crystal-field Hamiltonian H CEF = Sigma km B km + Sigma i C km (r i ) for the C 4v symmetry comprises five non-zero B k,m parameters. The results of model crystal-field calculations in C 4v symmetr…
Infrared transmission of 25 liquid crystal compounds was evaluated. Based on these results, a liquid crystal mixture consisting of fluoro and dialkyl diphenyl-diacetylene homologs was developed for CO2 laser application. This mixture exhibits a wide nematic range, high birefringence, low viscoelastic coefficient, and…
Ag(111) and Ag(110) surfaces exposed to oxygen at elevated temperatures (\ensuremath{\sim}800 K) exhibit strongly enhanced Raman bands at 803 and 627 ${\mathrm{cm}}^{\mathrm{\ensuremath{-}}1}$ which are attributed to O atoms strongly chemisorbed on the surface (${\mathrm{O}}_{\ensuremath{\gamma}}$) or held in subsurfa…
A thin bilayer of two coexisting polymer phases, in contact with a surface which favors and is partially wetted by one of them, was studied by nuclear reaction analysis and phase contrast microscopy. We find that when the less-favored phase is initially in contact with this surface, it is entirely replaced by the part…
We report experimental investigation and theoretical interpretation of the formation of sprial waves in a nematic liquid crystal subjected to a rotating magnetic field and a high frequency electrical field.
A unified model of phonon-assisted and zero-phonon radiative transitions in nanoscale silicon structures is presented. For characteristic sizes above 15--20 \AA{}, phonon-assisted transitions dominate, while zero-phonon transitions, allowed due to the finite-size effect, are more important for smaller length scales. L…
An expeditious and accurate simplification of Stone and Scallan's solute exclusion technique was developed, thereby avoiding several sources of experimental error coupled with the determination of cellulose pore volume. Using this method, it is shown that cellulolytic enzymes do not enter into the micropores of five s…
Rhenium heptafluoride, ReF(7), is one of only two stable binary compounds MX(7) with a heptacoordinated metal atom M and halide atom X. Its low-temperature crystal structure, as determined by high-resolution powder neutron diffraction, reveals the molecular structure, which has been the subject of speculation and deba…
Physical inclusion of small molecules in larger structural lattices is well known in the crystalline state and is a common feature of the chemistry of zeolites. In the liquid state, a variety of synthetic macrocyclic molecules are available to complex and contain smaller guest species. An alternative strategy for bind…
How do carbon and silicon chemistry differ? For example, the cyanide⇌isocyanide equilibrium is completely reversed in the sila series. According to calculations silane nitrile ( 2 ) is higher in energy than its isomer 1 , which has been known for much longer. The matrix isolation of 2 has now been achieved; 2 is the f…
Abstract This text, aimed at final-year undergraduate students and new postgraduates in physics, provides a broad introduction to surface physics, covering key areas of surface studies. Techniques are described that are used to determine which atoms are present on a surface and in what quantities, and to determine the…
This is a fully revised and expanded edition of a very successful and widely used book. It describes the physical basis of all the principal, and most of the more specialised, techniques currently employed in the study of well-characterised solid surfaces. The coverage of each technique, illustrated with selected exam…
Abstract Magnets composed of molecular species or polymers and prepared by relatively low‐temperature organic synthetic methodologies are a focus of contemporary materials science research. The anticipated properties of such molecular‐species‐based magnetic materials, particularly in combination with other properties…
