We have shown in a previous study [S. Muto et al., Jpn. J. Appl. Phys., 44, 2061 (2005)] that a high hydrogen storage capacity in hydrogenated nanostructured graphite is partly ascribable to the formation of hydrogenated iron carbide particles. In the present study, we examined the effects of hydrogen on electron ener…

Purpose Chromium based conversion coatings have been used widely to delay the formation of white rust on galvanized steel sheets. As chromium is carcinogenic, an alternative chromium‐free conversion coating was developed for use on galvanized steel surfaces to delay the onset of white rusting. This paper seeks to addr…

La Ni O 3 thin films have been deposited on SrTiO3 (100) by pulsed laser deposition. Substrate temperature and oxygen pressure have been investigated in the ranges of 640–840°C and 200–600μbars, respectively. The use of LaNiO3 as an electrode requires good electrical, structural, and morphological properties. Optimize…
