In the present paper, effect of La2O3 (0.25, 0.5 and 1 wt.%) addition on phase stability, porosity, density, hardness, fracture toughness, compressive strength brittleness index hydroxyapatite modified with wt.% MgO was investigated. Hydroxyapatite (HA) without additives sintered at 1300?C has mixture dominant beta-tricalcium phosphate (?-TCP), alpha-tricalcium (?-TCP) calcium oxide (CaO) phase...

Rhodium on a La-containing ZrO2 support effectively eliminated NOx from a synthetic auto exhaust gas under fluctuating oxygen conditions. Rhodium particles maintained a low oxidation state on the ZrO2-La2O3 mixed oxide even after treatment with 5% O2 at 773 K, highlighting the significant effect of the La addition.

To extend the use of CMOS technology beyond 14 nm node technology, new device materials are required that can enhance the performance of MOSFETs. The use of high-k materials in double gate (DG) MOSFET can triumph over the problem of power dissipation and leakage current. In this paper, we investigated various high-k dielectrics as the gate oxides in a 12 nm SOI FinFET and the performance potent...

The properties of barium titanate (BaTiO3 , BT), such as high dielectric constant and resistivity, allow it to find numerous applications in the field of microelectronics. In this work silicon metal-insulator-semiconductor field effect transistor (MISFET) structures with BaTiO3 thin films (containing La2O3 admixture) acting as gate insulator were investigated. The films were produced by means o...

It is a challenging task for selective hydrogenation of cinnamaldehyde (CAL) to hydrocinnamaldehyde (HCAL) without additional by-product formation. In this work, La2O3 supported high Ni content nanoparticle catalyst was prepared CAL hydrogenation. Meanwhile, Co-La2O3 catalysts were used as reference catalyst. XRD, TEM, STEM-HAADF, XPS, and H2-TPR measurements investigate the physicochemical pro...

An efficient La2O3-catalyzed new route for the carbon-carbon bond formation in particular, symmetrical and unsymmetrical biphenyls has been developed, which proceeds through carbon-carbon coupling reaction of aryl iodides with boronic acids. The reaction provided the desired products in moderate-to-good yields with a wide range of functional group tolerance.

we report on the synthesis, morphology, chemically and structurally of la2o3-co3o4-zro2 nanostructure. the la2o3-co3o4-zro2 nanostructure was synthesized by a method based on the co-precipitation. composite powders have been characterized by xrd (x-ray diffraction), sem (scanning electron microscopy) and bet (brunauer-emmett-teller). x-ray diffraction showed the formation of nano crystalline, l...

Mononuclear La2O3-supported AuIII complexes synthesised from AuIII(CH3)2(C5H7O2) and characterised by X-ray absorption spectroscopy are highly active, stable CO oxidation catalysts at room temperature, demonstrating the importance of the support in stabilizing catalytically active gold species, which need not include zerovalent gold for high activity.
