in this article vanadium boride nanopowder was synthesized by mechanochemical reduction method in a high-energy ball mill. the synthesized powders were studied by x-ray diffraction (xrd), scanning electron microscopy (sem), xray map and transmission electron microscopy (tem). according to x-ray diffraction the product predominantly consists of vb phases after 100 min milling without further hea...

the magnetite (fe3o4) – agar nanocomposite was prepared by co-precipitation of fe (iii) and fe (ii) ions for the first time. the obtained samples were characterized by x-ray diffraction, fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy. ft-ir results confirm the formation of fe3o4 nanoparticles in agar matrix. the xrd results revealed th...

this paper reports the synthesis of polypyrrole coated sno2/znoelectrospunnanofibers via vapor phase polymerization method. in order to prepare one dimensional (sno2-zno)/polypyrrole with the core sheath structure, first sno2-zno composite nanofibers were synthesized via electrospinning method followed by adsorption of fe3+ on the surface of the sno2-zno nanofibers and finally pyrrole was polym...

Nanocrystalline particles of Cerium Oxide (CeO2) have been prepared by the chemical precipitation method using Cerium nitrate and Urea with a molar ratio of 1:2. The results revealed that the formation of CeO2 fine particles is influenced by molar ratio of metal nitrates to fuel. Well faceted CeO2 nanoparticles, were synthesized by thermal-assisted dissociation ...

Size, shape, volume fraction and distribution of embedded g/ phase in g phase has direct effect on strength of INCONEL alloy. Microstructure parameters of INCONEL phases are quantified from microstructure images using transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Different TEM sample preparation techniques were used to study INCONEL 738 alloy microstructure for transmission electron micros...

We report the growth by ion exchange synthesis of ZnS nanoparticles in MCM-41 matrices using Zn (CH3COO)2 and Na2S starting sources. The final product (ZnS/MCM-41) was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) pattern, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), infrared spectrometry (IR) and UV-vis spectroscopy. Its crystalline st...

High-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) has shown to be very powerful for solving three-dimensional (3D) structures of unknown crystals. HRTEM has a unique advantage over diffraction for solving structures. Crystallographic structure factor phases, which are lost in diffraction can be directly obtained from HRTEM images. For the determination of a 3D crystalline structure by HR...

We have investigated the changes produced in single-element and two-layer transmission electron microscope (TEM) specimens irradiated by an intense nanometer-sized electron probe, such as that produced in a field-emission or aberration-corrected TEM. These changes include hole formation and the accumulation of material within the irradiated area. The results are discussed in terms of mechanisms...
