Homogeneous and nanosized (28 nm crystallite size) doped‐ZnO ceramic powders were obtained by a metallorganic polymeric method. Calcining and granulating resulted in green compacts with uniform powder packing and a narrow pore‐size distribution (pore size 19 nm). Dense ceramic bodies (>99% of theoretical) were fabr…

Abstract An extension has been made of previous analyses of peak area intensities for elemental spectra in digital Auger and x‐ray photoelectron databases. The intensities, instead of being analysed after removal of a background derived from the Tougaard Universal cross‐section, are now analysed after removal of the e…

Abstract Many attempts have been made to improve the fracture toughness of brittle materials such as ceramics. Most of the methods developed so far make use of metallurgical processes, for example, phase transformation, refining of grains, formation of composite materials. However, these methods can not be applied uni…

Abstract Raman spectra of LiK 0.8 (NH 4 ) 0.2 SO 4 were obtained as a function of applied pressure. The measurements were carried out using a microscope to focus the light into a spot size of 2 µm, in order to avoid probing a multi‐domain sample. With increasing pressure, many of the Raman peaks are shifted towards hi…

In cases of certain accelerated sulfur vulcanizing systems, the curemeter traces do not run the usual way but consist of two more or less distinct plateaus. The shape of the cure curves was newly evaluated based on cure curve derivation. The latter provides the possibility of distinguishing the inflection points even…

The nature of parent materials strongly influences soil development in the southeastern US Piedmont. In this region, most parent materials (saprolite) form from metamorphic and igneous felsic and mafic rocks. Although most soils in felsic terrains are acid and kaolinitic, soils formed from mafic parent materials range…

Zigzag defects in surface-stabilized ferroelectric liquid crystals (SSFLCs) originate from the structural transformation from C1 to C2 chevrons during the cooling process. This transformation occurs so as to accommodate the increasing cone angle of the FLC under the constraint of the surface anchoring. Based on this s…
