The data presented in this article are related to the research article entitled "High thermoelectric performance in pseudo quaternary compounds of (PbTe)0.95-x (PbSe)x(PbS)0.05 by simultaneous band convergence and nano precipitation" (Ginting et al., 2017) [1]. We measured electrical and thermal transport properties such as temperature-dependent Hall carrier density nH , Hall mobility μH , ther...

Controlling thermal transport has become relevant in recent years. Traditionally, this control has been achieved by tuning the scattering of phonons by including various types of scattering centres in the material (nanoparticles, impurities, etc). Here we take another approach and demonstrate that one can also use coherent band structure effects to control phonon thermal conductance, with the h...

GRS 1915+105 was observed by the CGRO/OSSE 9 times in 1995-2000, and 8 of those observations were simultaneous with those by RXTE. We present an analysis of all of the OSSE data and of two RXTE-OSSE spectra with the lowest and highest X-ray fluxes. The OSSE data show a power-law–like spectrum extending up to & 600 keV without any break. We interpret this emission as strong evidence for the pres...

The Landsat-8 satellite of the Landsat Data Continuity Mission was launched by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) in April 2013. Just weeks after it entered active service, its sensors observed activity at Paluweh Volcano, Indonesia. Given that the image acquired was in the daytime, its shortwave infrared observations were contaminated with reflected solar radiation; howev...

The electron temperature dependences of the electron–phonon coupling factor, electron heat capacity and thermal conductivity are investigated for Ni in a range of temperatures typically realized in femtosecond laser material processing applications, from room temperature up to temperatures of the order of 10 K. The analysis is based on the electronic density of states obtained through the elect...

Zinc Sulfide (ZnS) thin films were deposited on glass substrates at the pressure of 10-6 mbar by thermal resistor evaporation technique. The effects of annealing on the structural, optical properties of ZnS films were studied. Crystalline ZnS films have been analyzed by X-ray diffraction. Only cubic phase with the preferred (111) plane was found in ZnS films. Optical characteristics were studie...

Amultifunctional material, strontium zirconate, SrZrO3, studied in literatures as a dielectric ceramics, thermal barrier coating, proton-conductor, and luminescent material was sprayed by a water-stabilized plasma torch WSP 500. Stainless steel and plain carbon steel were used as substrates. Coatings with thickness of 1 to 2 mm were produced, whereas the substrates were preheated over 450 °C. T...
