We report on effective sulfur-based passivation treatments of type-II InAs/GaSb strained layer superlattice detectors (100% cut-off wavelength is 9.8 lm at 77 K). The electrical behavior of detectors passivated by electrochemical sulfur deposition (ECP) and thioacetamide (TAM) was evaluated for devices of various sizes. ECP passivated detectors with a perimeter-to-area ratio of 1600 cm 1 exhibi...

Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) was used to study the behavior of a microbial fuel cell (MFC) during initial biofilm growth in an acetate-fed, two-chamber MFC system with ferricyanide in the cathode. EIS experiments were performed both on the full cell (between cathode and anode) as well as on individual electrodes. The Nyquist plots of the EIS data were fitted with an equivalent e...

In the context of highly efficient, non-toxic and natural organic corrosion inhibitors, Phyllogorgia dilatata was studied as an anticorrosive for mild steel in acid medium. The marine octocoral crude extract (PDCE) was characterized and analyzed by LC-HRMS, revealing the presence of 16 different organic molecules. The corrosion inhibition was evaluated via weight loss study and electrochemical ...

Electrochemical properties of various rock-shaped-CuO/graphite (G) composites and monoclinic structure CuO nanoparticles as the cathode versus a zinc plate as the anode in a 4M NaOH electrolyte were elucidated by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and chronopotentiometry (CP) in a two electrode configuration cell. Various values of G 9, 16 and 28 wt% were prepared and studied as catho...

The interaction of external noise with an electrochemical oscillator (anodic dissolution of iron) has been studied experimentally on both sides of the homoclinic bifurcation. In the oscillatory regime the regularity of the limit cycle behavior was destroyed with increasing noise amplitude until no periodicity was observable any more. In contrast, the response of the excitable state (fixed point...

Abstract Acid fracturing is an effective technology for increasing oil and gas production. However, the acid will cause serious corrosion to tubing. In this paper, inhibition performance of TG202 inhibitor acidizing high temperature high-pressure wells on N80 carbon steel 13Cr martensitic stainless-steel tubing in 15% hydrochloric was studied by electrochemical noise technology. The results sho...

In this investigation, attempts were directed to study the inhibitive effects of nitrite and phosphate base inhibitors for the carbon steel alloy samples, which are used in an acid gas treatment process (The SULFIRAN® solution), in Fe-EDTA solution. Electrochemical techniques, i.e. polarization curves and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), were used to evaluate the inhibition efficie...
