A single Er 3+ centre in CaGdAlO 4 :Er 3+ has been identified to have C 4v symmetry from polarized laser selective excitation. This is consistent with isovalent substitution of the Er 3+ ions for host crystal Gd 3+ ions. Using both optical and infrared absorption and polarized laser excited fluorescence, 59 crystal-fi…

We investigate absorption, emission and excitation properties of an SrB 2 O 4 :Eu crystal grown from the melt using the Czochralski method. Eu 2+ absorption and Eu 3+ emission spectra are obtained. The five broad absorption bands peaking at 344, 288, 259, 235 and 212 nm correspond to the transitions from the 4f 7 ( 8…

Electron momentum spectroscopy (EMS) has been used to measure the valence band electronic structure of thin magnesium and magnesium oxide films. The band structures have also been calculated within the linear muffin-tin orbital (LMTO) approximation. The free-electron-like parabola characteristic of metallic solids was…

The reaction mechanism of poly(benzo[1,2- d:5,4- d ‘]bisoxazole-2,6-diyl-1,4-phenylene) (PBO) at elevated temperatures was studied by means of model compounds and a 13 C-labeled PBO polymer. Products from model compound thermal degradation suggest that the dominating reactions are homolytic scission of a single bond a…

We report on the photoluminescence properties of CuCl thin films with the thicknesses of 20 and 100 nm under intense-excitation conditions produced with a pulsed nitrogen laser. We have clearly observed two photoluminescence bands with a superlinear (almost quadratic) excitation-power dependence. The high-energy band…

The novel sulfidic mesophase [C14H29N(CH3)3]2MnGe4S10 forms via the surfactant-templated assembly of adamantane Ge4S104- clusters and Mn2+ ions in water. The material possesses a continuous, fully bonded framework of MnGe4S10 which is perforated with large parallel tunnels arranged with hexagonal order. The materials…

Human keratinocytes were cultured on plasma copolymers (PCPs), self-assembled monolayers (SAMs), and tissue culture poly(styrene) (TCPS). Plasma copolymerization was used to deposit films with controlled concentrations of carboxylic acid functional groups (<5%). Human keratinocytes were cultured onto these PCP surface…

Four different types of core−shell tecto-(dendrimer) were imaged by tapping-mode atomic force microscopy (AFM). The tecto-(dendrimer) molecules were based on PAMAM dendrimers, and included G4G3, G5G3, G6G4, and G7G5 (the first number represents the generation number (G) of the core, and the second number, the generati…

Ordered aluminosilicate mesostructures having a SiO 2 /Al 2 O 3 ratio near 5 were prepared using a surfactant-templated synthesis. The solid structures were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), nitrogen sorption to determine pore volume and pore sizes, powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), thermal desorption of…

A new methodology is presented for calculating parameters of complex surface reaction mechanisms. This approach takes into consideration adsorbate−adsorbate interactions along with their influence on the activation energies of surface reactions as a function of operating conditions. It combines an extension of the uni…

Electron spin resonance (ESR) spectra of Eu 2+ and Tb 4+ were observed at room temperature in one fluoride phosphate and two phosphate glasses. Although both ions are isoelectronic, they have different ESR spectra. Eu 2+ ions exhibit pronounced features at effective g -values of 2.0, 2.8 and 6.0, which is typical for…

The interaction of ultrathin Cu films with Pd(111) was studied by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The effects of Cu coverage and annealing temperature were investigated. The XPS data show that at room temperature Cu grows on Pd(111) layer-by-layer without alloying. Furthermore, Cu 2p 3/2 core-level shifts as a…

Solutions of the synthetic clay Laponite are strongly viscoelastic, even at very low particle concentrations. The formation of a gel, evidenced by the existence of a fractal network, has been invoked in explaining the viscoelasticity. We study the structure and viscosity of Laponite using static light scattering and r…

We solve a one-dimensional sandpile problem analytically in a thick flow regime when the pile evolution may be described by a set of linear equations. We demonstrate that, if an income flow is constant, a space periodicity takes place while the sandpile evolves even for a pile of only one type of particles. Hence, gra…
