In this research Calcium fluoride nanoparticles and its different amount of cerium ion dopant (5%and 10%) were prepared. The mentioned nanoparticle were studied by fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) , X-ray diffraction (XRD), absorption and photoluminescence spectra (PL) and Scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The XRD patterns indicate a typical cubic fluorite structure and no other...

ELNES originates from electron transition from core orbital to conduction band, and the electron transition follows electron dipole transition. Thus, ELNES profile reflects the partial density of state of selected elements in the conduction band. By combining the aberration corrected STEM, electronic structure analysis with atomic resolution is possible. Thus, the EELS have been extensively obs...

We measured atmospheric antiproton spectra in the energy range 0.2 to 3.4 GeV, at sea level and at balloon altitude in the atmospheric depth range 4.5 to 26 g/cm. The observed energy spectra, including our previous measurements at mountain altitude, were compared with estimated spectra calculated on various assumptions regarding the energy distribution of antiprotons that interacted with air nu...

Graphene oxide (GO) thin films were simply deposited on fluorine doped tin oxide (FTO) substrate via a low-voltage electrodeposition. The GO and GO thin films were characterized by Zeta Potential, X-ray diffraction, Ultraviolet-Visible spectroscopy, atomic force microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, field emission scanning electron microscopy and energy dispersive X-ray spectrosc...

The Met Office routinely runs a global spectral wave model providing analyses and forecasts of sea state on a grid spacing of approximately 60 km. The modelled two-dimensional wave energy spectra are compared with the Advanced Synthetic Aperture Radar (ASAR) Envisat satellite observations on a daily basis. Comparisons are also made with frequency ocean wave energy spectra observed by a moored b...

PURPOSE To demonstrate how a small magnetic spectrometer can measure the energy spectra of seven electron beams on an Elekta Infinity tuned to match beams on a previously commissioned machine. METHODS Energyspectra were determined from measurements of intensity profiles on 6″-long computed radiographic (CR) strips after deflecting a narrow incident beam using a small (28 lbs.), permanent magn...

Purpose: To investigate the energy dependence/spectral sensitivity of silicon diodes designed for small-field dosimetry and obtain response factors (RFs) for arbitrary photon spectra using Monte Carlo (MC) simulations.   Methods: The EGSnrc user-code DOSRZnrc was used to calculate the dose deposition in water and in the active volume of a stereotactic diode f...

In the present study, the oxyfluoride glasses of SiO2-Al2O3-CaF2 system containing different amounts of Y3+ ions were prepared through the convenient melting method. The crystallization temperatures and size of the CaF2 nanocrystals were obtained from DTA curves and XRD patterns, respectively. As a consequence, the optimum amount...
