Carbon nanocubes and nanobricks were synthesized by pyrolyzing rice powder at 600 degrees C under nitrogen atmosphere. Purification with concentrated nitric acid introduced approximately 0.1 mol/g of carboxylic acid groups as found by acid-base titrimetric analysis. XRD pattern showed the 0.15 mol/g basic graphitic st…

Abstract Graphite is a clean substrate and its nanostructures hold great potential for applications. Anchoring large molecules on graphite represents a challenge for several reasons that essentially rise from the planar bonds of the packed honeycomb structure of carbon. Here, a systematic investigation by AFM and XPS…

Exploratory syntheses in the M-Au-Ge (M = Ca, Yb) systems have led to the discovery of two cleanly separated non-stoichiometric phases M(3)Au(approximately 14.4)Ge(approximately 4.6) (I) and M(3.25)Au(approximately 12.7)Ge(approximately 5.3) (II). Single crystal X-ray studies reveal that both (space group Im3) feature…

Containerless high energy X-ray diffraction measurements have been performed on molten Al(2)O(3)-SiO(2) as a function of composition. The data show a strong distortion of the SiO(4) tetrahedral units and a breakdown of intermediate range order as alumina is added. For silica-rich compositions, the X-ray pair distribut…
