A method is proposed for determining the water concentration in silicate melt inclusions (Mi) by confocal micro-Raman spectroscopy, without exposing the inclusions for measurement (a prerequisite of all previous methods). The latter is important for extremely water-rich Mi (e.g., those in evolved granites and pegmatit…

Abstract Under closed geochemical conditions, the weathering of a serpentinite rock composed of serpentine (70–85%) and magnesian chlorite (10–15%) associated with magnetite and chromite leads to the complete replacement of serpentine and chlorite by 2:1 layer silicates and produces new Fe oxides. The serpentine miner…

High-temperature (867-1534 ºC) density measurements were performed in air on 10 liquids in the Na 2 O-Fe 2 O 3 -FeO-SiO 2 (NFS) system and 5 liquids in the K 2 O-Fe 2 O 3 -FeO-SiO 2 (KFS) system using Pt double-bob Archimedean method. Replicate measurements indicate an average reproducibility of 0.22%. Compositions (i…

We report here on the preservation of ferroelectricity down to 2 nm in BiFeO 3 ultrathin films. The electric polarization can be switched reversibly and is stable over several days. Our findings bring insight on the fundamental problem of ferroelectricity at low thickness and confirm the potential of BiFeO 3 as a lead…

The dispersion properties of the guided modes propagating along a dielectric slab waveguide with a left-handed material substrate are studied. It is shown that both the oscillating and surface modes can propagate very slowly along such a waveguide if the thickness of the core layer is chosen appropriately. The propaga…

The influence of the pretreatment of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) on the deposition of Pt‐n noparticles is investigated. The results show that refluxing CNTs by the mixture solution of sulfuric and nitric acids, or immersing them in the H 2 O 2 solution are effective ways for depositing Pt‐nanoparticles on the CNTs. The hy…
