Europium‐doped yttrium aluminum garnet (YAG) phosphor particles were prepared from mixed nitrate solutions by the FEAG (filter expansion aerosol generator) process. The crystallinity, morphology, and luminescence of the YAG:Eu particles were investigated. The prepared particles had an amorphous phase, which turned int…

Thermoluminescence modelling started with very simple models of highly localised point defects, and separation of trapping and recombination centres. Whilst these ideas still dominate the discussions, current research indicates that most defects are far more complex, with localised transitions, and defect interactions…

Aliphatic poly(ester-amide)s were prepared by polycondensation of N,N′-1,4 butanediylbis(6-hydroxyhexanamide), dimethyl adipate, and 1,4-butanediol, using Ti(OBu)4 as a catalyst. For polymers with a bisamide monomer content below 25 mol-%, Mw between 20 000 and 50 000 were obtained after 10–12 h polymerization at temp…

Poly(furfuryl alcohol) with M n = 2–2.2 × 103 was prepared using p-toluenesulphonic acid in methylene chloride. Polymer structures were determined by 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy. The 1H NMR spectrum indicated the predominance of linear sequences and the absence of CH2OCH2bonds in the polymer. The 13C NMR spectrum…

Porous silica frameworks containing well-dispersed metal particles are particularly important in catalysis. These authors report a method for direct inclusion of metal nanoparticles into a host framework, thus circumventing the need for post-synthesis functionalization of the support. The method involves a new molecul…

CdS/HgS/CdS nanoparticles consist of a CdS core, epitaxially covered by one or two monolayers of HgS, and additional cladding layers of CdS. The luminescence spectrum of the studied materials contains a dominant exciton band located at the HgS layer and an additional nonexcitonic band, presumably corresponding to the…

The excitation wavelength dependence of time-resolved EPR is used to demonstrate the pathway of intramolecular energy transfer in a covalently linked copper(II)−free base porphyrin dimer. Spin polarized spectra are presented for selective excitation of both the copper(II) porphyrin donor (at 540 nm) and the free base…

Abstract Formation of kaolinite-smectite (K-S) mixed layers in a soil toposequence developed from basaltic parent material was examined. The soil formed in a temperate climate with alternating dry and wet seasons in Sardinia (Italy). Chemical composition and charge characteristics of the smectite component in the K-S…

The preparation of dense homogeneous zirconia‐toughened alumina (ZTA) with high dry‐sliding wear resistance is described. These ZTA ceramics are obtained by sintering green compacts, made by colloidal filtration of well‐defined ZrO 2 ‐Al 2 O 3 particle suspensions, for 2 h at 1400°C. The optimum solid and stabilizer c…

The possible use of ozone to produce higher oxides was analyzed thermodynamically. Because the activity of oxygen in ozone is ∼10 18 at room temperature and ∼10 8 at 773 K, ozone may react with metals to yield higher‐oxidation‐state products than does an ambient pressure of pure oxygen. In agreement with this thermody…
