AN IMPROVED LITHIUM FLUORIDE MATERIAL FOR THERMOLUMINESCENCE DOSIMETRY

an improved mixed order model for describing thermoluminescence glow curves

an improved mixed order model is presented to describe the thermolumunescence (tl) glow peaks. in this model a fraction of charge carriers, which undergo nonradiative recombination following thermal excitation is taken into account. therefore, it is expected that the proposed model will produce more realistic kinetic parameters than that of mixed order model. the tl glow curves generated by the...

Lithium fluoride material properties as applied on the NIRCam instrument

Single crystal Lithium Fluoride (LiF) has been base-lined as one of the optical materials for the Near Infra-Red Camera (NIRCam) on the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST). Optically, this material is outstanding for use in the near IR. Unfortunately, it has poor mechanical properties that make it very difficult for use in any appreciable size on cryogenic space based instruments. In addition to ...

Micrometric Growth of V2O5Hexagonal Nano-plates as an Active Material for Lithium Ion Battery Cathode Electrode

This manuscript reports the synthesis of V2O5 nanostructures using reflux method, without using additives such as surface reactants. The influence of reaction parameters like temperature and concentration on the growth of nanostructures have been investigated. It has been observed that the nanostructures are formed with a hexagonal nano-plate morphology, grown from a common core. The diameter o...

Facile synthesis of MoS2@CMK-3 nanocomposite as an improved anode material for lithium-ion batteries.

MoS(2)@CMK-3 nanocomposite consisting of confined nanosized MoS(2) in CMK-3 carbon matrix exhibits much improved cycling performance and rate capability due to the enlarged interlayer distance and favorable conductivity.
