Electron paramagnetic resonance measurements were carried out to probe the structure of Mn2+ in ZnO nanocrystals with different surface conditions, modified by an annealing process. Changes in the spectra by the annealing treatment indicate the existence of three Mn2+ centers. The first is a sextet signal SI with g=2.…

Single crystals of K1−xTi1−xNbxOPO4 and K1−xTi1−xSbxOPO4 solid solutions are grown and their dielectric properties, electrical conductivity, and nonlinear optical properties are studied. Maximal content of these dopants x is found to be 0.11 for Nb and 0.23 for Sb. This doping leads to the creation of the additional p…

To clarify the factors that determine the structural relaxations in silica glass, the influence of fictive temperature on the relaxation process was investigated. It was found that the relaxations at different heat-treatment temperatures are enhanced with a rise in the fictive temperature. The structural relaxation is…

Er 3+ – Yb 3+ codoped TiO2 films were prepared on fused silica by sol–gel processes. The Yb3+ codoping effect on the physical characteristics and ∼1.54 μm photoluminescence (PL) properties of Er3+-doped TiO2 films was investigated. Maximum ∼1.54 μm PL intensity occurs in Er3+ (5 mol %)–Yb3+(30 mol %) codoped TiO2 samp…

Erbium biphthalocyanine (HErPc2) nanorods or nanowires were encapsulated in the cavities of MWCNTs simply by the capillary filling method. The length and the diameter of the nanowires can be easily tailored by the MWCNTs mold, capillary filling time, and the concentration of HErPc2. When the optical, electronic, and m…

The effect of spherical and sphero-cylindrical fillers on the order–disorder transition (ODT) of a symmetric diblock copolymer melt is investigated. Self-consistent equations describing the copolymer density distribution in the presence of fillers are derived. Using these equations, we calculate the excess free energy…

Heterostereocomplexes between d-PLA and l-peptides, obtained by spontaneous precipitation from acetonitrile solution, were characterized by thermal analysis and microscopic techniques. Differential scanning calorimetry showed two transition endotherms, one for the alpha form that melts at 178 degrees C and one for the…

We have investigated deformation luminescence phenomena and the constituent phases of SrMgAl6O11:Eu. The deformation luminescence is clearly visible to the naked eye in air, and the luminescence intensity is the highest among the materials reported. Using x-ray diffraction the constituent phases of SrMgAl6O11:Eu are d…

Thin films containing boron, carbon, and oxygen were synthesized by plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PE-CVD). When the thin films were exposed to humid atmosphere, nano- or micro-scale boric acid structures were observed to grow spontaneously. Depending on the relative humidity, temperature, and exposure tim…

Tb 3+ -doped Lu2O3 sintered ceramics were prepared in vacuum and in air. It was shown that the vacuum-sintered disks are able to store energy when irradiated with 300-nm or shorter photons. A small part of the stored energy could be recovered with 980-nm light. A much more significant amount of the stored energy could…
