Far-infrared transmittance of a SrTiO3 thin film deposited on a sapphire substrate by laser ablation was measured in the frequency range 25–200 cm–1 at temperatures from 5K up to 300 K. An interesting difference between the temperature behaviour of the polar soft mode in the thin film and the one in bulk material was…

Columbite-group minerals and ixiolite with extremely variable concentrations of scandium are widespread in moderately to highly fractionated rare-element granitic pegmatites. Columbite-group minerals with 1-3 wt.% Sc 2 O 3 are referred to as scandian columbite-tantalite and show degrees of structural order similar to…

Commercially available carbodiimides in hydroxylic solvents containing hydrogen peroxide with mildly basic or acidic catalysts have been found to promote the epoxidation of olefins. A commercially available 30% aqueous solution of hydrogen peroxide serves as the oxidant for this process. The presumed reactive species…

The structure of weakly charged temperature sensitive gels has been investigated in deformed state by means of small-angle neutron scattering (SANS). At low temperatures where the gel is in a good solvent, the scattered intensity pattern was isotropic even for deformed gels. When the temperature was raised to 42 °C, t…

Fractoluminescence and charge emission upon three-point-bending fracture of synthetic and natural quartz crystals have been studied. Broad luminescence bands centered at about 2.0, 2.9, and 5.0 eV have been observed in both cases. Time-resolved luminescence measurement could be performed on the 2.0 and 2.9 eV bands. T…

It was found that the activity of Pt catalyst films interfaced with disks can be reversibly modified upon application of constant currents or potentials through the cell Negative current (or potential) application causes up to threefold enhancement in the rate of ethylene oxidation at temperatures 450–510°C. The rate…

A complete analysis of the line shape of the excitonic absorption and photoluminescence lines of the yellow series of Cu2O is given. A detailed fit to the absorption lines up to the n = 5 exciton according to Toyozawa's theory gives precise values for the excitonic resonance energies, allowing to calculate the exciton…

Decagonal quasicrystals in Zn-Mg-RE systems (RE = rare earth) have been studied for their composition and stability. The decagonal phase was shown to have the composition Zn Mg Dy in the Zn-Mg-Dy system. This phase 58 40 2 became a major phase after annealing and thus is apparently thermodynamically stable. Further, t…

We are developing a novel three-dimensional (3D) microanalysis method by means of successive cross-sectional Auger mapping. In this method, a 3D elemental map will be obtained by repetition of the cross-sectioning of a sample using a gallium focused ion beam (Ga FIB) and Auger mapping of the cross section using an ele…

The importance of drying nanostructured semiconductors, such as porous silicon, in a controlled manner is explained. The mechanical instabilities that can arise during drying—resulting in cracking (see Figure) or peeling of the film—are discussed, as are methods that reduce or completely suppress these drying stresses…

The arterial wall injury associated with arterial graft implantation causes smooth muscle cells (SMCs) in the media to migrate and proliferate in the intima at the graft-artery junction resulting in anastomotic intimal hyperplasia (AIH). An important step in developing a small-diameter prosthesis may be to stimulate e…
