The characterization of strictly anaerobic bacteria which can reduce thiosulfate into hydrogen sulfide is described. Although thiosulfate reduction is a common metabolism in the bacterial world, its implication regarding microbiologically influenced corrosion has never been investigated. Thiosulfate is in ecosystems w…

Near-infrared surface-enhanced Raman scattering (NIR SERS) spectra were obtained for 2,2-bipyridine, 5,6-benzoquinoline, pyrene, anthracene, and fluoranthene on SERS pre-activated thin-layer chromatography (TLC) plates by Fourier transform (FT) Raman spectroscopy. The pre-activation of TLC plates was based on a proced…

The behaviour of n- and p-type crystalline silicon wafers in quiescent concentrated aqueous HF solutions has been studied for immersion times up to 205 days. The etch rate, as determined from weighing experiments, decreased with time to values as low as after prolonged etching. The experimental findings are consistent…

A processable new thermosetting polymer containing carborane and siloxane groups with acetylenic linkages was examined for antioxidative properties during high-temperature oxygen exposure. Samples of the polymer were annealed in argon or air at 320–400°C or argon at 900°C and oxidized at 400 and 500°C. Their structure…

Compressional wave velocities ( V p ) have been determined up to 2350 K on CaSiO 3 , MgSiO 3 , CaMgSi 2 O 6 , CaAl 2 Si 2 O 8 and Ca 3 Al 2 Si 3 O 12 glasses and melts from Brillouin‐scattering experiments made with a 180° backscattering geometry. At the glass transition, the decrease of V p with increasing temperatur…

A coherent picture for the so-called rapid oscillation (RO) phenomena observed in ${(\mathrm{TMTSF})}_{2}X(X=\mathrm{Cl}{\mathrm{O}}_{4} \mathrm{and} \mathrm{N}{\mathrm{O}}_{3})$ is presented. By comparatively studying the two very similar systems, yet with quite different RO features, we have identified the origin of…

The axial intensity of axicons illuminated by a coherent wave usually exhibits rapid oscillations from diffraction on the sharp edges of the aperture of the element. These oscillations can be suppressed when the diffractive version of the axicon is illuminated from a polychromatic source. This possibility is examined…

Dielectric dispersion of the ferroelectric liquid crystal (CS-1022) around the SC∗-SA transition and temperature dependence of the spontaneous polarization were measured by varying the cell thickness. Behaviour of the dielectric constant is well described by a formula including the contribution of the soft mode, the G…

Mesa etched transmission line model (TLM) test structures with different contact lengths have been fabricated on heavily boron doped polycrystalline diamond films. The behavior of the contact and contact end resistance measurements can be fully explained using the TLM. No influence of the grain size on the contact res…

Abstract A novel method is presented for generating periodic surfaces. Such periodic surfaces appear in all systems which are characterized by internal interfaces and which additionally exhibit ordering. One example are systems of AB diblock copolymers, where the internal interfaces are formed by the chemical bonds be…

The intensity of photoluminescence from a thin layer of laser dye on a metallic grating depends on the polarization and angle of incidence of the incident beam of light. For an appropriate polarization and angle of incidence, the beam can resonantly excite surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs). The dye layer experiences a…

Recently, it has been argued that a strong electron-phonon interaction arising from the Jahn-Teller splitting of the outer Mn d level plays a crucial role in understanding the nonmetal-to-metal transition observed in the La(1-x)A(x)MnO(3) (A = Ca,Sr,Ba) system. We show, by neutron powder diffraetion, that La0.65Ca0.35…
