Oxyfluoride glasses were developed with composition 30SiO2⋅15AlO1.5⋅28PbF2⋅22CdF2⋅(4.8−x)GdF3⋅0.1NdF3⋅0.1HoF3⋅xYbF3 (x=0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, and 4.8) in mole percent. Powder x-ray diffraction analysis revealed that the heat treatments of the oxyfluoride glasses at 450 °C for 0.5 h cause the precipitation of Nd…

With modern detectors and synchrotron sources, it is now routine to collect complete data sets in 10-30 min. To make the most efficient use of these resources, it is desirable to automate the collection and processing of the diffraction data, ideally to a level at which multiple data sets can be acquired without any i…

We suggest a model of the atomic and electronic processes responsible for the so-called 110 and 325 °C thermoluminescence (TL) peaks, including predose behavior, and for the room temperature optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) of quartz. Our model is based on defects and defect processes typical of those known fro…

We report, for the first time, deviations from the Summerfield scaling in the ac conductivity spectra of single ion conducting glasses. In contrast to the extensively studied borate and germanate glasses, the conductivity isotherms of alkali tellurite glasses do not superimpose upon application of the Summerfield scal…

Fe–Ga alloys with compositions near 27.5 at. % Ga (26–29 at. %) can be heat treated to obtain ordered phases based on α″ (ordered bcc), D019 (ordered hexagonal), and L12 (ordered fcc) structures. This work presents an evaluation of how the different ordering treatments influence the magnetostriction in cast polycrysta…

Coupling phenomena between artificial left-handed (LH) transmission lines are explored on the basis of a transmission line approach of LH materials. A LH forward coupler in the form of an ideal lumped-element ladder network is presented and is shown to exhibit strong forward coupling that increases with decreasing of…

Previous theoretical simulation and experimental studies have indicated that particles with a short-ranged attraction exhibit a range of dynamical arrest phenomena. These include very pronounced reentrance in the dynamical arrest curve, a logarithmic singularity in the density correlation functions, and the existence…

The magnetization of an ensemble of isolated lead grains of sizes ranging from below 6 nm to 1000 nm is measured. A sharp disappearance of Meissner effect with lowering of the grain size is observed for the smaller grains. This is a direct observation by magnetization measurement of the occurrence of a critical partic…
