We report the effect of basal-plane stacking faults (BSFs) on X-ray diffraction (XRD) of non-polar (1120) a-plane GaN films with different SiNx interlayers. Complete SiNx coverage and increased three-dimensional (3D) to two-dimensional (2D) transition stages substantially reduce BSF density. It was revealed that the S…

Cubic GaN was grown on GaAs(0 0 1). The GaN layers were found to exhibit residual strain with a measured a-lattice parameter of 4.4990 Å. The GaN layers were grown on GaAs(1 1 0) forming cubic crystal structure with an a-lattice parameter of 4.4947 Å for the LT-GaN buffer layers and a hexagonal structure with an a-lat…

Biomineralization in crustaceans is a remarkably efficient process of ion transport and phase transformation in a spatial template. Here we show the use of this preorganized pathway with waste shrimp shell as both a phosphate source and template for the mineralization of UO 2 2+ to uramphite. By using the physical str…

Direct conversion of CH4 to syngas (H2 and CO) via CH4 partial oxidation was investigated using a narrow-gap co-axial dielectric barrier discharge reactor. Partial oxidation is initiated by electron impact dissociation of CH4, while complete oxidation is suppressed due to low temperature condition (200–400 °C): CH4 co…
