The dilithium diamide reagent obtained from N,N'-di('butyl)-l,4-diazabutadiene and two equivalents of lithium metal reacts with anhydrous gallium trichloride in tetrahydrofuran / hexane, followed by treatment with metallic potassium, to give the title compound in about 40% yield. Cyclic imides of gallium(III) and gallium(II) are by-products of this process. The structure of Li{[ds-C 2 H2 (N'Bu)...

The purpose of this study was to test a gallium nitrate solution, a resorption inhibitor, employed as a root canal dressing in teeth submitted to late replantation. Thirty maxillary right central incisors of rats were avulsed and kept dry for thirty minutes. The teeth were instrumented and the root surfaces were treated with 1% hypochlorite solution followed by application of 2% sodium fluoride...

In this paper, tetragonal chalcopyrite (CIGS) Cu(InxGa1-x)Se2 with x=0, 0.5, 0.8, 1 are synthesized by heating-up method. These nanoparticle structures differ in morphology and absorption properties due to the synthesis temperatures of 250, 255, 260, 265, 270 and 280 ºC, and gallium molar ratio over the total gallium and indium contents. These features are studied using scanning electron m...

Ga self-diffusion in gallium phosphide ~GaP! is measured directly in isotopically controlled GaP heterostructures. Secondary ion mass spectroscopy ~SIMS! is used to monitor intermixing of Ga and Ga between isotopically pure GaP epilayers which are grown by molecular beam epitaxy ~MBE! on GaP substrates. The Ga self-diffusion coefficient in undoped GaP is determined to be D52.0 cm s exp(24.5 eV/...

A patient with retroperitoneal fibrosis and right peritracheal and hilar lymphadenopathy was studied using gallium-67-citrate. No abnormal uptake was seen in the regions of retroperitoneal fibrosis, while there was avid uptake in chest lesions later shown to represent small cell lung carcinoma. Retroperitoneal fibrosis which does not show gallium uptake is most likely mature, with few inflammat...

In an effort to combine group III-V semiconductors with carbon nanotubes, a simple solution-based technique for gallium functionalization of nitrogen-doped multi-wall carbon nanotubes has been developed. With an aqueous solution of a gallium salt (GaI(3)), it was possible to form covalent bonds between the Ga(3+) ion and the nitrogen atoms of the doped carbon nanotubes to form a gallium nitride...

The synthesis and analysis of the electronic states of the main-chain type-organogallium polymers are presented. We synthesized the polymers containing four-coordinate gallium atoms by organometal coupling reactions. The synthesized polymers showed good solubility in common organic solvents and enough stability for measuring a series of properties under ambient conditions. In the UV-vis absorpt...
