The objective of this work is to use porous silicon (PSi) layers as substrate material to transduce hybridization of DNA into a change in conductance. A coplanar configuration of the contact electrodes allows a complete exposure of the porous silicon layer to the sensing species without the need of top contacts or ele…
Complex (Mn, X)S compounds nucleated on Al2O3-based sites were found as the major nucleation sites for graphite flakes in both un- inoculated and inoculated grey irons. (Mn, X)S particles (1–8 fun) and their corresponding nuclei (0.1–2.7 μm) were characterized as size, morphological features and distribution patterns…
Lithium insertion into nanoporous anatase TiO2 electrodes has been studied using resonant inelastic soft-x-ray scattering spectroscopy (RIXS). We have measured Ti 2p absorption, L2,3-emission and resonant inelastic scattering spectra of pristine anatase TiO2 and Li inserted TiO2. Inelastic scattering features in RIXS…
The present work is a study of the thermal properties of Mg–xLi–y Al with x= 4, 8 and 12 wt-% and y= 0, 3 and 5 wt-% as a function of temperature in the range 20–375°C. The thermal diffusivity and coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) have been measured and the thermal conductivity calculated. The thermal diffusivity…
Cerium conversion layers (CeCL) have been investigated as a replacement for chromium conversion layers to protect Al alloys against corrosion. In this work the microstructure and the electrochemical behaviour of aluminium alloy 2024 with and without CeCL were investigated using, respectively, SEM-EDX and EIS. EDX resu…
Abstract The melt radical grafting of glycidyl methacrylate (GMA) onto isotactic polypropylene (PP) was carried out in Brabender internal mixer and the influence of reaction procedure, radical initiator concentration and addition of co‐monomer (styrene) on the grafting efficiency was examined. The viscosity, the therm…
Microstructure development in Sb 2 O 3 ‐doped ZnO was studied to evaluate the influence of inversion boundaries (IBs) on ZnO grain growth. In general, the addition of Sb 2 O 3 is believed to inhibit the ZnO grain growth via the formation of spinels and IBs, but we have shown that even the conditions of exaggerated gra…
Dielectric impedance measurements of porous silicon within the frequency range of 50 Hz–1.0 MHz and temperature range of 298–798 K revealed three semicircles in a Cole–Cole plot when the temperature is raised to 773 K; they are thought to correspond to contributions from the grain interior, grain boundary, and electro…
Weight reduction is of great significance in the automotive industry, having direct consequences in materials used in car production and their development. In this context Teksid France and Inasmet have worked to improve practical knowledge on new ferrous casting alloys, particularly ADI. This material has been valida…
Alumina specimens with various amounts of CaO and SiO 2 (1:2 ratio) were prepared, and their abnormal grain growth (AGG) kinetics were investigated. A plot of the area fraction covered by abnormal grains versus log (sintering time) had a sigmoidal shape with an apparent incubation period before the onset of AGG. The o…
We demonstrate theoretically a polarization-independent guided-mode resonant filter with only a one dimensional grating. A rigorous method, the modal method by Fourier expansion, is used to compute the diffracted efficiencies of the grating. Wave-vector analysis fails to correctly design a polarization-independent str…
Rapidly solidified ZrO 2 (Y 2 O 3 )–Al 2 O 3 powders were prepared by melting fine‐particle aggregates in a high‐enthalpy plasma flame and then rapidly quenching them in cold water or on a copper chill plate. To ensure complete melting and homogenization of all the particles before quenching, the water‐quenching treat…
Carbon based materials and clusters can have various structures and properties. Apartfromcrystalline and ordered forms ofcarbon,a wide variety ofdisordered formsofcarbon are there.These disordered or amorphouscarbons are of importance in many applications as well as in basic research. Carbon black and glassy carbon ar…
Yellow-brown to pink Mn-rich tourmalines with MnO contents in the range 8-9 wt% MnO (~0.1 wt% FeO) from a recently discovered locality in Austria, near Eibenstein an der Thaya (Lower Austria), have been characterized by crystal structure determination, by chemical analyses (EMPA, SIMS), and by optical absorption spect…
The C-propeptides of the pro alpha chains of type I and type III procollagens are believed to be essential for correct chain recognition and chain assembly in these molecules. We studied here whether the 30-kDa C-propeptides of the human pC alpha 1(I), pC alpha 2(I), and pC alpha 1(III) chains, i.e. pro alpha chains l…
We present a methodology for mass and size dispersity analysis by MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry of lyothermally grown 2.5-3.7 nm ZnS nanocrystals having a Zn blende crystal structure. These results correlate with information obtained by TEM and absorption spectroscopy. The use of MS methods to probe size and size disper…
Abstract Addition of Ammonium Polyphosphate/Polyamide‐6 system is known to provide flame retardancy in many polymers blends via an intumescent process. Particulate fillers (talc and calcium carbonate) are used in large quantities in PP. Combination of fillers in PP can modify the properties of the polymeric matrix. Th…
Abstract Copolymers of 2‐methylene‐1,3‐dioxepane (MDO) and methyl acrylate (MA) containing ester units both in the backbone and as pendant groups were synthesized by free‐radical copolymerization. The influence of reaction conditions such as the polymerization time, temperature, initiator concentration, and comonomer…
The optical spectra of single crystals of hexagonal rare-earth manganites RMnO3 (R=Sc, Y, Er) are studied in the range from 0.7 to 5.4 eV. It is found that the spectra substantially differ from the spectra of orthorhombic manganites in both the positions of spectral features and their polarization anisotropy. It is sh…
Abstract Barrier‐type anodic films 3–15 nm thick have been formed on electropolished 99.999% aluminium. Variable‐angle XPS has been used to identify a significant proportion of hydroxyl ions at the surface of the relatively compact alumina films. The location of an oxygen‐rich region at the outer surface of the oxide…
