sr5nb4o15 – nb2o5 nanocomposites were synthesized in 2 and 4 m koh aqueous solutions, via a non-stoichiometric 1:2 sr:nb molar ratio hydrothermal method at 160°c for 48 h (s1 and s2, respectively). sr(no3)2 and nb2o5 were used as raw materials. the synthesized nanomaterials were characterized by powder x-ray diffraction (pxrd) technique. it was found that sr5nb4o15 has been crystallized in hexa...

Very smooth thin films of iridium have been deposited on super polished fused silica (SiO2) substrates using dc magnetron sputtering in argon plasma. The influence of deposition process parameters on film micro roughness has been investigated. In addition, film optical constants have been determined using variable angle spectroscopic ellipsometery, over the spectra range from vacuum ultraviolet...
