the stacking mechanism of the 1h-4h proton transfer in 4-pyridone, 4-pyridinthione and p-aminopyridineare constructed. for quantitative description of this process by means of the quamtumchemicalmethod density functional theory (dft) the activation energy (

the sno2 films deposited from inorganic precursors via sol–gel dip coating method have been found to be highly sensitive to methanol and ethanol vapor. three dimensional nano-structure materials have attracted the attention of many researches because the possibility to apply them for near future devices in sensors, catalysis and energy related. the sensitivity and selectivity of sno2 (110) nano...

incorporation of copper species into silica matrix was performed by the sol-gel method. copper ions and copper particles were doped using two different copper sources; cu(no3)2.3h2o and copper particles chemically synthesized.the particles of copper metallic, cuprous and cupric oxide were prepared and the synthesis and characterizations of copper species were compared together. on the other han...

The performance of a new high-flux solar simulator consisting of 18 × 2.5 kWel radiation modules has been evaluated. Grayscale images of the radiative flux distribution at the focus are acquired for each module individually using a water-cooled Lambertian target plate and a CCD camera. Raw images are corrected for dark current, normalized by the exposure time and calibrated with local absolute ...

We report on the synthesis, morphology, chemically and structurally of TiO2-CuO-SiO2 nanostructure with different precursors molar ratio and calcined temperatures. In the present work, ternary reactive powders in the TiO2-CuO-SiO2 systems have been obtained using the sol-gel method, by the simultaneous gelation of all cations. The compounds and other ...

This study was conducted to investigate the use of cubic LaMnO3 nano-perovskite as a green catalyst for the degradation of an aqueous solution of methyl orange under different conditions. Nanoscale cubic lanthanum manganite with the particle size of ~20 nm was successfully synthesized via citrate sol-gel method. The sample was characterized using the FT-IR and UV-Vis spectroscopy, XRD, SEM, and...

Alcator C-Mod was recently upgraded with multiple diagnostics to measure the heat flux footprint on the outer divertor: IR thermography, plasma conditions from Langmuir probes (LPs), and embedded calorimeters to measure local energy deposition. In addition to providing consistency checks of the inferred heat flux profiles, these measurements allow an assessment of the local sheath heat flux tra...
