We derive general relations between grain boundaries, rotational deformations, and stress-free states for the mesoscale continuum Nye dislocation density tensor. Dislocations generally are associated with long-range stress fields. We provide the general form for dislocation density fields whose stress fields vanish. W…

A chemical actinometer that employs an aqueous solution of ferrioxalate and polyoxometalate (POM: SiW120404-) is proposed as a simple and fast method that quantifies the light intensity of UV radiation in the 300-390 nm range. As a modified ferrioxalate actinometer, illuminated ferrioxalate solution in the presence of…

The real and imaginary parts of the dielectric function of TlGaSe 2 single crystals are investigated in the frequency range 30 Hz–13 MHz and at temperatures 80 K–300 K. A low frequency dispersion due to the interfacial polarization within the crystals is observed. The temperature dependence of relaxation time is obtai…

In this paper we have shown a potential approach to fabricate relaxor materials by making a ceramic composite of environmental friendly Ba-based diffuse ferroelectric BaZrxTi1−xO3 (x = 0.20 and 0.25) with non-ferroelectric magnesium oxide (MgO). The dielectric behaviour of BaZrxTi1−xO3 : 50 wt% MgO (x = 0.20 and 0.25)…

A new multi-phase Eulerian model for the columnar and equiaxed dendritic solidification has been developed. In this paper we first focus on the numerical simulation of quasi-steady solidification experiments in order to obtain corresponding CET maps. We have identified three main zones on the CET map: the pure columna…

Abstract A novel poly(vinyl chloride) nanocomposite with layered double hydroxide was successfully prepared via a melt‐compounding process in which the positively charged platelets were dramatically exfoliated and homogeneously dispersed. Because of the absorption of the released hydrochloric vapor by both layered dou…

Thin films of indium tin oxide doped with ZnO thin films have been prepared by the electron-beam evaporation technique. The effects of heat treatment and ZnO content on the structural, optical and electrical properties of these films have been investigated. The optical transmission was found to improve with increasing…

We report the use of electron beam-induced fragmentation (EBIF) to produce arrays of nonoverlapping bimetallic Bi−Ni nanoparticles. Factors influencing this fragmentation process include the precursor particle composition, morphology, melting temperature, type of melting (peritectic vs eutectic), and the ability to di…

We evaluated the variations of the magnetic hysteretic behaviour of Fe–1wt%Cu model alloy samples due to thermal aging and over-aging. In these alloys, the formation and growth of Cu-precipitates during the thermal aging process results in mechanical hardening, whereas for aging times higher than a certain critical va…
