We evaluated the size distribution of defects in three types of PAN-based carbon fibres with the different Young's modulus using the lifetime measurement of positron annihilation. It was found that the average lifetimes of positron were around 400 ps in all cases corresponding to the defect size composed by nine or mo…

CeCu2Ge2, the magnetic counterpart of the heavy-fermion superconductor CeCu2Si2, exhibits an antiferromagnetic ground state below TN = 4.15 K with an incommensurate propagation vector of τ = (0.28 0.28 0.54). The magnetism is determined by local Ce 4f-moments and the ordering RKKY interaction as well as the onset of K…

Periodic pyramidal array patterned sapphire substrate (PSS) with various inclined facets was fabricated by wet etching. It was found that {3 17}, {4 18}, and {12 5} facets are exposed on the PSS structure after etching. GaN grown on the PSS by metal-organic chemical vapor deposition was found to have a semi-polar orie…

A shortage as well as a rise in costs for raw materials as used for production of derived timber products and fibre composites can be observed for quite some time. Especially the use of wood as energy source has led to an increased demand for cellulose raw materials. Non wood resources e.g. from agricultural productio…

We prepared CuO-Ta2O5 composite films using our simple co-sputtering method for the first time. Four specimens were prepared from an as-deposited CuO-Ta2O5 sample by cutting it using a diamond- wire saw, and the specimens were subsequently annealed at 600°C - 900°C. The X-ray diffraction and photoluminescence (PL) of…

Sodium enrichment occurs on the surface of the glass that is in contact with the gas phase during the heat treatment of lead-containing glass under a reductive atmosphere. This technique was previously found to promote lead recovery in waste-glass treatment, and may be potentially applied to glasses containing other h…
