This paper is an attempt to synthesize nanostructured tantalum films on medical grade AISI 316L stainless steel (SS) using pulsed DC plasma assisted chemical vapor deposition (PACVD). The impact of duty cycle (17-33%) and total pressure (3-10 torr) were studied using field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), grazing incidence x-ray diffraction (GIXRD), nuclear reaction analysis (NRA)...

In this research, Quantum-mechanical calculations were performed at the HF method with the 6-31+G*basis set and at the B3LYP method with the 6-31+G* basis set in the gas phase and five solvents such as water, DMSO, methanol, ethanol and dichloromethane at six temperatures. According to these theoretical results of IR, we extracted thermo chemical parameters such as enthalpy (∆H Kcal/mol), Gibbs...
