ZnAs2 nanoclusters were fabricated by incorporation into pores of zeolite Na-X and by laser ablation. Absorption and photoluminescence spectra of ZnAs2 nanoclusters in zeolite were measured at the temperatures of 4.2, 77 and 293 K. Both absorption and PL spectra consist of two bands which demonstrate the blue shift fr…

A simple aqueous solution route was introduced for the fabrication of CuO pricky microspheres (CPMs) using CuCl(2) x 2H(2)O, Na(2)(C(4)H(4)O(6)) x 3H(2)O and NaOH as starting materials. The CPMs were composed of compressed nanothorns exhibiting tapering feature with tip size of less than 10 nm, and the size of CPMs co…

Abstract Surface modification of polyimide films Kapton E(N) and Upilex S by nitrogen plasmas were investigated for their enhanced adhesion strength with sputtered coppers. Peel tests demonstrate this improvement, with peel strengths of 7 and 12 N/m for unmodified Kapton E(N) and Upilex S, and 1522 and 1401 N/m for ni…
