Abstract Low lattice‐mismatched γ‐LiAlO 2 (100) substrates were employed to grow ZnO epitaxial films by chemical vapor deposition. The influence of growth temperature on growth behavior of ZnO was investigated. Results indicated that the low lattice‐matched (10 $ \bar 1 $ 0) crystallites nucleate on substrate at all g…

The primary mission of the Army is to fight and win the Nation's wars. Conducting offensive and defensive operations has long been the Army's core capability. However, the recent experience of operations in the Balkans, Iraq, and Afghanistan, coupled with today's operational environments, clearly indicates that the fu…

The Ni/SiO2 composite microcapsules were prepared by a one-pot synthesis via thermally decomposing Ni(acac)2·2H2O in 2-pyrrolidone in the presence of tetraethyloxysilane and 3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane (APS). Transmission electron microscopy and powder X-ray diffraction were used to characterize the general morpholo…

Abstract Aufgerollt wie ein Teppich : Durch Anbringen flexibler Knäuel an den Mittelteil starrer stabförmiger Moleküle entstehen T‐förmige Stab‐Knäuel‐Konstrukte, die selbstorganisierte Schichten aufbauen. Diese Schichten rollen sich auf, sodass im Festkörper, je nach Größe der Knäuel, ausgefüllte Zylinder oder hohle…

The electronic states of zinc magnesium oxide (Zn 1− x Mg x )O thin films were determined exactly by hard X-ray photoemission spectroscopy (HX-PES) using synchrotron radiation. The Zn 2p core level was shifted to a higher binding energy along with widening of the bandgap by alloying with MgO, whereas the shift of the…

A general method for the functionalization of silica surfaces with silicon hydride (Si-H) groups is described for four different preparations of silica. The silica surface is reduced in a two-step chlorination-reduction procedure within a simple gas-flow system at high temperatures. After initial dehydroxylation of th…

Nanostructured porous silicon (PS) is usually formed by anodic etching in HF-based solution, and its porosity is measured by a destructive gravimetric technique. In this article, we report the development of an artificial neural network (ANN)-based model permitting in situ prediction of porosity of PS samples. The sen…

Structure solution from powder diffraction data, from either real- or reciprocal-space methods, has generally been thought to require reliable relative intensities to yield a successful solution. An approach is described here which requires no input of the orientation direction when using simulated annealing. The simp…

Abstract The photoluminescence properties of silicon quantum dots may be tailored by surface states via efficient coupling to resonant bulk states. Therefore various wet‐chemistry procedures were developed to fabricate silicon quantum dots with adjustable sizes and surface properties. While the energy gap of the Si co…
