Fast neutron response measurements are reported for radiation detectors based on large-volume SiC p-i-n diodes. Multiple reaction peaks are observed for 14-MeV neutron reactions with the silicon and carbon nuclides in the SiC detector. A high degree of linearity is observed for the /sup 28/Si(n,/spl alpha//sub i/) rea…

A simple but effective aqueous-organic phase-transfer method for gold, silver, and platinum nanoparticles was developed on the basis of the decrease of the PVP's solubility in water with the temperature increase. The present method is superior in the transfer efficiency of highly stable nanoparticles to the common pha…

Since the discovery of helium in 1868, it has found numerous applications in industry and medicine. Its low density makes helium potentially valuable in respiratory care applications, to reduce work of breathing, improve distribution of ventilation, reduce minute volume requirement, and improve aerosol delivery. This…

The effect of X-ray illumination on the structural properties of the mixed valence Prussian blue analogue CsFe(II)[Cr(III)(CN)6] has been studied by time-dependent high-resolution synchrotron X-ray diffraction. Abrupt isosymmetric phase transitions, accompanied by dramatic volume collapse, were found in the temperatur…

Carbon nanowalls (CNWs), i.e., two-dimensional carbon nanostructures, were fabricated using fluorocarbon capacitively coupled plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition assisted by H radical injection. The correlation between CNW growth and the fabrication conditions was investigated. The morphologies of CNWs were depe…

Numerical studies of higher-dimensional piecewise-smooth systems have recently shown how a torus can arise from a periodic cycle through a special type of border-collision bifurcation. The present article investigates this new route to quasiperiodicity in the two-dimensional piecewise-linear normal form map. We have o…

The most abundant silicates formed under the Earth’s ‘normal’ surface conditions, i.e. clay minerals, are always of small grain size. Under the same conditions, other mineral species such as carbonates, sulphates and oxides may form much bigger crystals. The reason why phyllosilicates formed in soils or in weathered r…
