Summary This paper describes the conditions for dispersion and flocculation of clays, and the impact of this process on soils of contrasting textures cropped with rice. Clay seems to be translocated down the profiles and along a topographic sequence. The clays are mixed kaolinite–smectite. The cation exchange capacity…

Electrical contact to amorphous silicon nanoparticles was established with a method that self aligns the contacts to the particles. Charge transport characteristics were studied as a function of temperature and voltage. The conduction in these devices was not limited by the metal∕semiconductor barrier; rather it was l…

A systematic investigation of optical absorption and luminescence is presented for Er 3+ ions in the Bi 4 Si 3 O 12 crystal. The intrinsic emission of this crystal gives rise to a radiative energy transfer among the host lattice and Er 3+ ions. Measured oscillator strengths for seven different transitions from the gro…

Spectra and transients of the photoluminescence (PL) of undoped and Er-doped size-controlled nanocrystalline Si∕SiO2 multilayered structures with mean nanocrystal size of 1.5–4.5nm have been comparatively investigated. The Er-doped structures exhibit a strong Er-related PL band at 0.81eV, while the efficiency of the i…

Optical properties of normal spinel MxCo3−xO4(M=CrandCu) films grown by sol-gel method have been investigated by the spectroscopic ellipsometry (SE) in the 1.5–4eV region. For x<1.0, the cubic lattice constant of CrxCo3−xO4 is found to increase linearly with x while that of CuxCo3−xO4 decreases slightly. By com…

Abstract Summary: Reinforced clear coats were prepared using nanosized silica and alumina particles in UV/EB curable acrylate formulations. For a firm embedding of the oxide nanofillers via covalent bonds to the network acrylates their surfaces were modified by polymerization‐active trialkoxysilanes, e.g., methacrylox…

High energy (MeV)C2+,F2+, and Cl2+ ions were irradiated onto π-conjugated polyaniline emeraldine base (PAN-EB) samples. The energy of an ion beam was controlled to a range of 3–4.5MeV, with the ion dosage varying from 1×1012 to 1×1016ions∕cm2. The highest dc conductivity (σdc) at room temperature was measured to be ∼6…

Structural differences between pure and LiCF3SO3-doped amorphous WO3 thin films were studied by Raman spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analysis. Based on our interpretation of reports in the literature on Raman spectra of WO3 thin films, we found that the LiCF3SO3-doped amorphous WO3 film presented gr…
