In this work, the structural, optical, and electronic properties of rare-earth perovskites general formula $R{\mathrm{CrO}}_{3}$, where $R$ represents Gd, Tb, Dy, Ho, Er, Tm, have been studied in detail. These compounds were synthesized through a facile citrate route. X-ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy, UV-Visible spectroscopy utilized to reveal structural evolutions $R{\mathrm{CrO}}_{3}$. T...

sorkheh-dizaj apatite-iron oxide deposit is located 32 km southeast of zanjan. the area is situated within the tarom subzone of western alborz-azarbaijan structural zone. the oldest units at the sorkheh-dizaj area are eocene trachyte, trachyandesite, olivine basalt and volcanoclastic brecciate tuff and lapilli tuff which intruded by a quartz-monzonite, monzonite and granite subvolcanic pluton o...

BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVES Making centrifuged deposit smears from sputum to detect acid-fast bacilli (AFB) is considered hazardous. We carried out this study to stain the centrifuged deposits with carbol-fuchsin in sputum containers and to decolourize and counterstain their smears made on glass slides. METHODS The centrifuged deposits of 180 sputum samples from pulmonary tuberculosis patients we...

OnApril 1, 2002, the Japanese government lifted a blanket guarantee of all deposits and began limiting the coverage of time deposits. This paper uses this deposit insurance reform as a natural experiment to investigate the relationship between deposit insurance coverage and market discipline. I find that the reform raised the sensitivity of interest rates on deposits, and that of deposit quanti...

T91 ferritic-martensitic steel was exposed to Li, Na and K molten carbonates at 650ºC under dynamic conditions up 1000 h. After testing, three descaling methods, two from the ISO8407 one ISO17245 standards were applied remove corrosion products determine rates. The methods more appropriate although procedure required several steps fully products. method led a higher mass loss affecting probably...

The subject of government bank regulation is intimately intertwined with that of government deposit insurance. If the government is to insure bank deposits, it should also have some say in the risks that insured banks are allowed to take, otherwise it would leave itself wide open to unlimited potential losses. John H. Kareken (in this issue) comes close to arguing that banks without government ...
