Protonic-electronic mixed-conducting properties have been investigated for SrZr0.9−xY0.1RuxO3−α (x = 0.05 − 0.125) at elevated temperatures. Hydrogen permeation was actually observed with respect to the ambipolar diffusion, ensuring the ionic-electronic mixed conduction in the materials. The mixed-conducting mechanism…

We have observed multi-photon resonances in a system with a spin 3/2 irradiated simultaneously by a multiple pulse radiofrequency sequence and a low frequency field swept in the range 0-80 kHz. The used excitation scheme allowed us to measure the effective field of the radiofrequency sequence. A peculiarity of this sc…

Resonant x-ray reflectivity measurements from the surface of liquid Bi22In78 find only a modest surface Bi enhancement, with 35 atomic % Bi in the first atomic layer. This is in contrast to the Gibbs adsorption in all liquid alloys studied to date, which show surface segregation of a complete monolayer of the low surf…

We report an x-ray scattering study of the microscopic structure of the surface of a liquid alkali metal. The bulk liquid structure factor of the eutectic K67Na33 alloy is characteristic of an ideal mixture, and so shares the properties of an elemental liquid alkali metal. Analysis of off-specular diffuse scattering a…

The theory of spin diffusion is extended to the case of spin lattice relaxation and spin diffusion in an inhomogeneous field in spin systems with non-equidistant energy spectrum. Two coupled equations describing the mutual relaxation and the spin diffusion of the nuclear magnetization and dipolar energy were obtained…

Measurements of the surface x-ray scattering from several pure liquid metals (Hg, Ga, and In) and from three alloys (Ga-Bi, Bi-In, and K-Na) with different heteroatomic chemical interactions in the bulk phase are reviewed. Surface-induced layering is found for each elemental liquid metal. The surface structure of the…

A perturbation method is presented which can be applied to the description of a wide range of physical problems that deal with dynamics of dipolar coupled spins in solids. The method is based on expansion of the operator exponent in a perturbation series. As example of application the method, the multile-quantum coher…

Abstract Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have been synthesized over Ni–MgO and Ni–Sm–Mg catalysts by decomposition of CH4 at 923 K. The addition of Sm into Ni–MgO catalyst promotes its catalytic activity and lifetime. The yield of CNTs obtained over the optimized Ni–Sm–Mg catalyst reaches 1260 wt % relative to the weight of t…

A thermochemical process based on the occurrence of self-propagating reactions that is able to convert asbestos fibers into harmless, nonfibrous species is proposed. Specifically, a mixture consisting of a waste (containing about 85 wt % of chrysotile), ferric oxide, and magnesium is able, once locally ignited by a th…

We describe the integration of a photochromic azobenzene dye into electrostatically bound polyelectrolyte multilayers. Two different deposition techniques are compared: electrostatic self-assembly (ESA) and polyelectrolyte spin-assembly. The polyelectrolytes used were PEI (polyethylenimine) and PAZO (poly[1-[4-(3-carb…

We designed and produced silver–silicon dioxide multilayer thin-film bandpass filters for the ultraviolet range by applying the concept of 'transparent metals'. To calculate the transmission of the designed metallodielectric filters we used the transfer matrix method for lossy structures. We fabricated our multilayer…
