A two-port beam splitter is presented to obtain the 50/50 output based on the two-layer grating. The previously reported beam splitter grating can work only at the special prescribed incident angle. The deviation of incident angle introduces the effect on the splitting ratio uniformity. The proposed two-layer beam spl…

Abstract A series of novel adamantane‐based copoly(aryl ether ketone)s ( PAEK‐CF 3 ‐Ad) with low dielectric constants were prepared by post‐amidation of copoly(aryl ether ketone)s containing (3‐trifluoromethyl)phenyl and carboxyl groups with 4‐adamantylaniline. Compared with the preparation of adamantane‐containing po…

Polycrystalline BiFeO3, having a spherical shape with a diameter of about 78 μm, has been synthesized by low-temperature hydrothermal method. The observed Raman and x-ray photo electron spectroscopy (XPS) spectra of the sample show the spectra of typical single-phased BiFeO3, and the x-ray diffractometry (XRD) measure…

Highly luminescent semiconducting AgInS2–ZnS solid solution nanorods are successfully prepared by a facile one-pot solvothermal method. The resulting solid solution nanorods with length of 32 ± 5 nm are formed by fast growth of the AgInS2-rich solid solution head, followed by slow growth of the ZnS-rich solid solution…

In a combined experimental and first-principles density functional theory (DFT) study, benzene steam reforming (BSR) over MgAl 2 O 4 -supported Rh and Ir catalysts was investigated. Experimentally, it has been found that both highly dispersed Rh and Ir clusters (1–2 nm) on the spinel (e.g., MgAl 2 O 4 ) support are st…

To clarify the influence of surface steps on the diffusion of adsorbed oxygen atoms on Pt, we have carried out density functional calculations of the adsorption of atomic oxygen on a Pt(211) stepped surface and the diffusion barriers between the adsorbed states. Comparison with Pt(111) and Pt(100) flat surfaces reveal…
