چکیده

Direct methods using dynamical transmission electron diffraction (TED) intensities is applied to the solution of (Ga,In)2SnO5. Dynamical diffraction effects in the TED data lead to an emphasis of oxygen positions in the structure. Application of direct methods to dynamical diffraction intensities represents a valuable new technique for obtaining approximate atom positions of light elements in ceramics using an experiment which is simple to perform and does not require a single crystal.

Application of Direct Methods to Dynamical Electron Diffraction Data for Solving Bulk Crystal Structures

The crystal structures of two previously unknown bulk phases in the Ga±In±Sn±O system have recently been solved using direct methods applied to electron diffraction intensities. In both cases, phasing of dynamical diffraction intensities clearly indicated the positions of O atoms in the crystal structures. It is shown here that a correlation between the dynamical diffraction amplitudes and the ...

Fabrication and Investigation of Se-Ge Glass-Ceramics in the Presence of Ga and Sn Additives

The Chalcogenide glasses were fabricated by melting and quenching techniques in the Se-Ge system at the presence of 1mol% Ga and 3, 5, and 7mol% Sn. Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) analysis was conducted to extract the heat treatment of the samples. Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy analysis was also performed in a range of 2-16µm. The Glass samples were heat-treated at 450...

Synthesized Bimetallic Electrocatalyst for Oxygen Reduction Reaction in Polymer Electrolyte Fuel Cells

In the present study, a step by step process was applied to synthesize bimetallic electrocatalyst (Ru and Pt on VulcanXC-72R). This process can reduce the amount of platinum and increase the gas diffusion electrode (GDE) performance in the cathodic reaction of polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs). Using the impregnation by hydrothermal synthesis method, a series of electrocatalysts ...
