in order to study concentrations of soil micro and heavy metal elements in some saffron planting regions of birjand province, an experiment was performed as factorial layout based on a completely randomized block design with three replications at year 2013. treatments were three field ages (annual, triennial and quinquennial) and five saffron regions including aryan shahr, hosseinabad, khosef, ...

We demonstrate a sharp composition transition at the interface of an as-deposited SmCo5/Fe bilayer, while annealing results in measurable Co/Fe interdiffusion near the boundary. For the annealed SmCo5/Fe bilayer, phase separation occurs within the bcc-layer, forming regions with 3 different Fe:Co ratios. Depositing Fe between Sm-Co layers provides a realistic model for bulk systems. Co/ Fe inte...

We investigate magnetic correlations and local magnetic moments at finite temperatures of some Fe and Co multilayers on Cu(100) substrates, such as Co(m)Fe(n)Co(m)/Cu(100) and Fe(m)Co(n)Fe(m)/Cu(100). We use an ab initio mean-field theory of magnetic fluctuations for layered materials based on the first-principles local spin-density functional theory implemented through the screened Korringa-Ko...

The increases in atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO(2)) concentrations can enhance plant growth and change their nutrient demands. We report that when tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum 'Zheza 809') plants were grown in iron (Fe)-limited medium (with hydrous ferric iron oxide) and elevated CO(2) (800 microL L(-1)), their biomass and root-to-shoot ratio were greater than plants grown in ambient CO(2) (...

Reported are complexes of the formula Fe(dithiolate)(CO)2(diphos) and their use to prepare homo- and heterobimetallic dithiolato derivatives. The starting iron dithiolates were prepared by a one-pot reaction of FeCl2 and CO with chelating diphosphines and dithiolates, where dithiolate = S2(CH2)22- (edt2-), S2(CH2)32- (pdt2-), S2(CH2)2(C(CH3)2)2- (Me2pdt2-) and diphos = cis-C2H2(PPh2)2 (dppv), C...

Nanowire is a cylindrical nano-structure with nanometer dimensions. In this research, the studied nanowire was made from the magnetic triple Ni-Fe-Co alloy.&#10 We utilized ordered porous anodic aluminum oxide as a template for the nanowire deposition. The nanowire arrays were electrodeposited in the cylindrical pores of the oxide layer by AC potential in a simple sulfate bath. Then the relatio...

Reaction of the mononuclear Ni(II) thiolate complexes [Ni(L)] [L, L(1), H2L(1), bis(2-mercaptoethyl)-1,2-dimercaptoethane; L(2), H2L(2), N,N'-dimethyl-N,N'-bis(2-mercaptoethyl)-bis(aminoethyl)sulfide] with [FeCp(CO)2I] gives the dithiolate-bridged heterobimetallic species, [Ni(L(1))FeCp(CO)]PF6, 1, and [Ni(L(2))FeCp]I, 2, respectively. Binding of a Fe(CO)3 fragment via reaction of square-planar...

We present an ab initio theoretical investigation of the magnetization and phase stability of two different complex cubic structures of prototype Cr23C6 and Mn23Th6, with an emphasis on the Fe,Co,Ni 23B6 and Fe,Co,Ni 23Zr6 compositions. These phases have recently been observed as secondary or even primary crystallization products of Fe,Co,Ni -Zr-B and related metallic glasses that have been stu...
