A pyrolysis route has been used to synthesize arrays of highly aligned BxCyNz nanotubes in bulk. The structure and composition of the product were characterized by scanning electron microscopy, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy, and electron energy-loss spectroscopy. The length and diameter of the nanot…

The exciton–erbium coupling and the excitation dynamics of Er3+ in erbium-doped silicon-rich silicon oxide are investigated using time-resolved measurements of Er3+ luminescence. The dependence of the Er3+ luminescence on the pump power and duration indicates that the exciton–erbium coupling is dominant over carrier–e…

Ordered polymer microspheres were produced by photo-polymerizing reactive nematic liquid crystal droplets suspended in glycerol, thus capturing the mesogenic order indefinitely. The electro-optic switching of these structures suspended in a fluid is investigated and described by a simple phenomenological model.

The depth-resolved luminescence of the ZnO epilayer has been studied by using cathodoluminescence (CL) at room temperature. Other than the usual excitonic and deep level emissions, two peaks at 3.13 and 2.57 eV have been observed and are attributed to the defects. The variation of all the emission peaks has been exami…

A series of new poly(ether-ester-imide)s, PEEIs, was prepared from an imide dicarboxylic acid based on 1,4-diaminobutane and trimellitic anhydride. This imide dicarboxylic acid polycondensed with 1,4-dihydroxybutane formed the hard segments and poly(ethylene oxide), PEO-1000, or mixtures of PEO-1000 and poly(tetrameth…

We provide a possible formation mechanism for one of the Si-related paramagnetic centers in amorphous silica, Eα′, which is stable only below 200 K, on the basis of the quantum-chemical calculations. We show that the divalent Si defect can trap a hole, resulting in two different types of paramagnetic centers that are…

Layered double hydroxide of Mg-Al-carbonate system (MACH) was prepared and its heat-treated product (MACHT) was obtained by calcination at 500 degrees C. The resulting materials were used as an adsorbent for removal of color from synthetic textile wastewater (STW) and textile wastewater (TWW). Batch kinetic study show…

Potassium (K) is an essential plant nutrient. The K present in subsoil, either from leaching of the applied K or from genetic origin, would be available to plants in substantial amounts. A great majority of studies on K in soils have been solely concerned with samples collected from the surface soils (0–15 cm). The de…

The thermodynamic activities of SiO(2) in Al(2)O(3)-SiO(2) liquid slags were measured by the high-temperature Knudsen cell mass spectromeric method in the present work. The measurements were carried out in the temperature range 1863-2169 K. Tungsten crucibles were used to hold the slags. The system was calibrated usin…

We present an optical study of 2H-TaSe2 along the less conducting c-axis. This dichalcogenide compound belongs to a large class of conductors called "bad metals" (with a mean free path smaller than the lattice constant along the c-axis), which also includes the superconducting cuprates. The optical response shows the…

Electromigration results have provided clear evidence of a short or “Blech” length effect in dual- damascene, Cu/oxide, multilinked interconnects. The test structure incorporates a repeated chain of Blech-type line elements and is amenable to failure analysis tools such as focused ion beam imaging. This large intercon…

The optical absorption spectrum in nanocrystalline silicon $(n\ensuremath{-}\mathrm{Si})$ was determined from both light transmittance and reflectance measurements. We observed that $n\ensuremath{-}\mathrm{Si}$ has a phonon structure in the optical absorption spectrum. This structure originates from momentum-conservin…

We have used high-resolution transmission electron microscopy to resolve the [0001] projected basal plane structure and chirality relationships in boron nitride nanotubes. Evidence for tube growth along both 〈101̄0〉 and 〈112̄0〉 is found. Our results suggest that the 〈112̄0〉 (armchair) tubes form first. Subsequent grow…

First-principles methods are used to investigate the self-interstitial and its aggregates in diamond. The experimental assignment of the spin-1 $R2$ EPR center to the single interstitial has been questioned because of the small fine-structure term observed. We calculate the spin-spin interaction tensor for the three i…

Epitaxial anatase thin films were fabricated on lattice-matched (−0.2%) LaAlO3 (001) substrates in the layer-by-layer fashion by laser molecular-beam epitaxy. X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscope show the films to exhibit high crystallinity and atomically defined interfaces. By virtue of the adoption…
