The crystal structures and characterizations of Ba(4)EuM(3)O(12) (M = Ru and Ir) are reported. They crystallize in a monoclinic 12-l-perovskite-type structure with space group C2/m. The M(3)O(12) trimers and EuO(6) octahedra are alternately linked by corner-sharing and form the perovskite-type structure with 12 layers…

Zinc nitride (ZnN) films were prepared by electron beam evaporation technique. The effect of heat treatments on the structural and optical properties of these films were studied. The as-deposited films show amorphous structure and some peaks which are related to Zn3N2 and ZnO can be observed for annealed films. The st…

Rice straw (Oryza sativa L.) pulp was treated by high intensity ultrasonication to make fibrils. The rice straw fibril (RSF) material was used as reinforcement in an RSF/polypropylene (PP) composite. The influences of RSF and coupling agent (MAPP) contents on tensile properties of the composite were tested. The result…

Asymptotic methods are used to analyse a recent numerical model for the electrochemical pickling of steel. Although the process is characterized by an excess of supporting electrolyte, the asymptotic structure of the solution turns out not to be the same as that given classically for such situations. In the original t…

Epitaxial films of LaFeO3 (LFO) were grown on SrTiO3(001) (STO) substrates using pulsed laser deposition. Two epitaxial orientations were observed: α where LFO(110)∥STO(100) and β where LFO(001)∥STO(100). By controlling the deposition conditions, LaFeO3 films could be grown with just the α orientation or with simultan…

A procedure is proposed for generating rigorous closed-form orthonormal bases for the expansion of strongly focused (high-numerical-aperture), monochromatic, electromagnetic fields. The performance of three such bases is tested in terms of a parameter that determines their directional spread, for several truncation or…
