This study investigates the mechanism of atmospheric corrosion of carbon steel beneath polymeric coatings. In situ scanning Kelvin probe was applied to measure the potential around the artificial defect in the coating. Measurement of galvanic currents in a model cell (bare steel-coated steel) and current polarity prov…
This work demonstrates the feasibility of binary liquid crystal (LC) alignments, in which two forms of LC alignment are in a single pixel or a specific area using a surface-treated alignment layer and a photoalignment film of the adsorption of azo dyes onto the polymer surface in azo dye-doped liquid crystals. Binary…
The adsorption characteristics are studied for nano- and ultraporous glasses (PGs) produced from sodium borosilicate glasses and a glass containing small amounts of fluoride ions and phosphorus oxide by acid (HCl) leaching and additional alkaline (KOH) and thermal treatment. The surface charges σ 0 of PGs are determin…
Size dependent domain configuration and its evolution under an external electric field are investigated for ultrathin ferroelectric films using an unconventional phase field method. The simulation reveals a series of domain configurations at different thicknesses, including zigzag patterns with eight variants or four…
Pitting corrosion of stainless steel 403 in the NaCl solutions is studied. It is shown that the experimental results obtained under the potentiostatic conditions do not provide sufficient information on the behavior of steel under the conditions of free corrosion. The corrosion experiments take long time, their result…
Thermoreflectance microscopy is a well established method for the thermal imaging of (opto)electronic components and ICs. The technique combines submicron spatial resolution with excellent temperature resolution (10mK can be achieved). The dynamic thermal behavior can be studied using either a transient pulsed boxcar…
We theoretically investigated the electronic structures and magnetic properties of (Mn,C)-codoped ZnO system based on the first-principles calculations within a GGA+Up,d approach. We found that codoping C is a promising approach to enhance the ferromagnetic coupling between the nearest-neighboring Mn ions due to the s…
The electron photoemission spectra of valence bands and core-level states of manganese perovskite La0.67Pb0.33(Mn1-xFex)O3with x = 0, 0.01, 0.03, 0.06, 0.10 and 0.15 were measured by the X-ray and Ultraviolet Photoemission Spectroscopy (XPS and UPS) below and above the metal-insulator transition.From analysis of the M…
We design the static and dynamic characteristics of a piezoelectric nanomicrotransducer intended for use in nanotechnology and microelectronic hardware, devise its parametric structural schematic diagram, and determine the influence of its physical and geometric parameters on its static and dynamic characteristics.
The electronic structure and magnetic properties of In 2 O 3 with four kinds of intrinsic point defects (O vacancy, In interstitial, O interstitial, and In vacancy) have been theoretically studied using the density functional theory. The defect energy states of the O vacancy and In interstitial are close to the bottom…
A number of compounds of the pyromorphite-mimetite solid solution series were synthesized at room temperature and analyzed with infrared spectroscopy and powder X-ray diffraction. High-resolution high-quality powder diffraction data were obtained by means of the state-of-the-art instrument at the 11-BM beamline of the…
A novel methodology is proposed for investigating the effect of the pulsed electric current during the spark plasma sintering (SPS) of electrically conductive powders without potential misinterpretation of experimental results. First, ensemble configurations (geometry, size and material of the powder sample, die, plun…
A high-quality low-temperature ac susceptometer is calibrated by comparing the measured ac susceptibility of a copper cylinder with its eddy-current ac susceptibility accurately calculated. Different from conventional calibration techniques that compare the measured results with the known property of a standard sample…
Degradation of devices has become a major issue for processor design due to continuous device shrinkage and current density increase. Transistors and wires suffer high stress, and failures may appear in the field. In particular, wires degrade mainly due to electromigration when driving current. Techniques to mitigate…
Establishing fabrication methods of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) is essential to realize many applications expected for CNTs. Catalytic growth of CNTs on substrates by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) is promising for direct fabrication of CNT devices, and catalyst nanoparticles play a crucial role in such growth. We have d…
We consider resonant electron tunneling in various nanostructures, including single-wall carbon nanotubes, molecular transistors, and quantum wires, formed in two-dimensional electron gas. The review starts with a textbook description of resonant tunneling of noninteracting electrons through a double-barrier structure…
It is well known that thermally evaporated a-As2S3 thin films are prone to oxidation when exposed to ambient environment. These As2O3 crystals can have a devastating effect on propagating light by introducing a major source of scattering loss in submicron optically integrated circuits. Magnetron sputtering a-As2S3 not…
The technique of electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) is ideal for the characterisation of grain boundary networks in polycrystalline materials. In recent years the experimental methodology has evolved to meet the needs of the research community. For example, the capabilities of EBSD have been instrumental in drivi…
The possibilities of effective solutions of relevant technological problems are considered based on the analysis of fundamental physical aspects, elucidation of the nano-structural mechanisms and interrelations of aging and hydrogen embrittlement of materials (steels) in the hydrogen industry and gas-main industries.…
The ( La 0.7 Ca 0.3 MnO 3 ) 1-x /( CuFe 2 O 4 ) x (x = 0–0.15) composites were prepared by conventional solid state reaction method.
