The thermal expansion coefficients of a single crystal and ceramic of Nb2O5 are measured in the temperature range of −200–500 °C by the dilatometer technique. Both single crystals and ceramics of Nb2O5 and Nb2O5(1−x):xTiO2 show negative thermal expansion in this temperature range. Some contribution to the result could…
Abstract A series of new aromatic polyamides having pendent naphthoxy groups were synthesized by the triphenyl phosphite‐activated polycondensation of (2‐naphthoxy)terephthalic acid (NOTPA) with various aromatic diamines in a medium consisting of N ‐methyl‐2‐pyrrolidone (NMP), pyridine, and calcium chloride. The diaci…
Thermoluminescence of Eu and Ce co-doped CaGa 2 S 4 has been investigated for the first time. All co-doped samples were found to exhibit a long afterglow of the Eu emission having a peak energy of ∼2.20 eV. Analyses of measured transient thermoluminescence curves showed two activation energies, ∼0.2 eV and ∼0.94 eV, f…
A hot isostatic pressing technique was used to prepare bulk polycrystalline samples of the hydrogen-absorbing materials LaAlxNi5−x. Ultrasonic methods were used to measure the elastic moduli of these alloys. Small corrections were made for porosity so that values expected for the theoretical density were found. The va…
A polymerizable complex (PC) technique was utilized to prepare fine powders of high purity BaTinO2n + 1 with n = 1, 2 and 5 at lower temperatures than those used for the ordinary solid-state reaction procedure. The formation of pure BaTinO2n + 1 occurred when precursors obtained from PC-derived gel materials were heat…
Emission enhancement from BaTiO3:Pr3+ by addition of trivalent ion under excitation above the fundamental absorption edge of BaTiO3 host crystals has been investigated. In this system, energy transfer occurs from BaTiO3 to Pr3+. Emission of Pr3+ is intensified by addition of small trivalent ions, e.g., Yb3+ or Sc3+, w…
We performed local density approximation (LDA)-based ab initio calculations for isolated substitutional donor impurities (phosphorus single donor and sulfur double donor), hydrogen at various sites, and hydrogen-related complexes (phosphorus-hydrogen and sulfur-hydrogen) in diamond. Their stable atomic configurations…
Infrared and Raman spectra of vermiculite clay have been recorded, and an assignment of the observed features in the spectra is proposed on the basis of molecular dynamics calculations. For this purpose, a force field yielding a structure and vibrational spectra in good agreement with the experimental data was develop…
The demagnetizing problem should be studied numerically in nonellipsoids with nonzero susceptibility χ, except for a few limiting cases where analytical treatment turns out to be practical. In this work, for an infinitely long bar with rectangular cross section 2a×2b and χ=∞ and −1 in a uniform transverse applied fiel…
The image contrast of a single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) is investigated via high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) experiments and image simulations. It is found that the common practice of determining the tube diameter by measuring the two dark lines in the HRTEM image of a SWCNT is not very a…
Spectroscopic analysis of the unhydrogenated amorphous carbon nitride (a-CNx) films, prepared by ion beam sputtering, was done by ellipsometry, Raman scattering and x-ray photoelectron spectroscopic (XPS) studies. The optical gap of the films was estimated from the Tauc’s analysis of the (n,k) data obtained from spect…
Blue luminescence emission around 480 nm through cooperative upconversion from pairs of Yb3+ ions implanted into 60TeO2–10GeO2–10K2O–10Li2O–10Nb2O5 tellurite glasses and excited by a cw laser at 1.064 μm is demonstrated. Cooperative luminescence emission enhancement owing to the temperature dependent multiphonon-assis…
A photonic model for freshly anodized porous silicon multilayer structures is presented. The photonic structures are composed of alternating high and low dielectric function porous silicon layers. The model takes into account the presence of silicon dioxide and its lattice expansion in the porous structure. We work wi…
Highly oriented indium tin oxide (ITO) thin films were grown by pulsed-laser deposition (PLD) on glass and single-crystal yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) substrates. The structural, electrical, and optical properties of these films were investigated as a function of oxygen partial pressure. Films were deposited at su…
The nonlinear optical properties of solid-solid phase transformation in vanadium dioxide are studied. It is found that the efficiency of the third-harmonic optical signal generated from the surface of the material increases by 1.5 orders of magnitude as a function of this phase transformation. Microscopy studies show…
An irreversible conductor-insulator transition has been observed when heating Mg2NiH4 in the temperature interval 110 to 570 K. The disappearance of the electric conductivity is concomitant with the appearance of stacking faults (or microtwinning) in the Mg2NiH4 structure, as observed by powder x-ray diffraction. Howe…
The formation dynamics of reflective holographic polymer dispersed liquid crystals (H-PDLCs) is investigated with in situ spectroscopy. A modified diffusion model is proposed to describe the time dependent shrinkage of the polymer matrix during formation. The relationship between polymer shrinkage and functionality in…
The Debye theory of dielectric relaxation of an assembly of polar molecules is reformulated using a fractional noninertial Fokker–Planck equation for the purpose of extending that theory to explain anomalous dielectric relaxation. The fractional Fourier–Planck equation in question is a generalization of the Smoluchows…
A theoretical analysis based on a perturbation method is used to elucidate the results of attenuated total reflection (ATR) measurements performed on silicon oxide layers of different thicknesses on silicon substrates. This analysis shows that the absorbance ATR spectrum in p polarization is the image of the layer ene…
1,3-Dibromo-2,4,6-trinitrobenzene (DBTNB), a two-dimensional charge transfer hyperpolarisable chromophore, crystallizes in the non-centrosymmetric space group C2 in perfect polar order leading to an intense powder SHG signal at 1.06 microns.
