Solid state reactions between SiC and Ir

Ambient solid-state mechano-chemical reactions between functionalized carbon nanotubes

Carbon nanotubes can be chemically modified by attaching various functionalities to their surfaces, although harsh chemical treatments can lead to their break-up into graphene nanostructures. On the other hand, direct coupling between functionalities bound on individual nanotubes could lead to, as yet unexplored, spontaneous chemical reactions. Here we report an ambient mechano-chemical reactio...

Manganese Antimonate: Facile solid state synthesis, characterization and its application for Biginelli reactions

Nanostructured Mn2Sb2O7 powders were synthesized via stoichiometric1:1 Mn:Sb molar ratio solid state reaction at different reactions temperatures for 8 h using MnSO4.H2O and Sb2O3 as raw materials. The synthesized materials were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) technique. Structural analyses were performed by the FullProf program employing profile matching with constant scale fa...

Solid-state microwave annealing of ion-implanted 4H–SiC

Solid-state microwave annealing was performed at temperatures up to 2120 C for 30 s on ion-implanted 4H–SiC in N2 ambient. The surface roughness in the samples annealed without a surface cap at 1950 C is 2.65 nm for 10 lm · 10 lm atomic force microscopy scans. The sheet resistances measured on Aland P-implanted 4H–SiC, annealed by microwaves, are lower than the best conventional furnace anneali...

Properties and Medical Applications of Near-ir Solid-state Lasers

Cr-Tm-YAG, Cr-Tm-Ho-YAG, and Er-YAG lasers at 2.01 pm, 2.1 2pm, and 2.94 pm, resp., are compared regarding single-shot and high-repetition rate efficiency. The 2 pm lasers are intrinsically limited at higher operation temperatures, the Er-laser only shows thermal lensing. Th~n (3 mm) Tmand Ho-laser rods allow high repetition rates (30 Hz) and with increasing rod diameters pulse energies up to 1...
