Fe-rich natural orthopyroxenes with compositions of (Mg0.61Fe0.38Ca0.01)SiO3 (Fe#38) and (Mg0.25Fe0.74Ca0.01)SiO3 (Fe#74) were studied at pressures up to 155 GPa and temperatures up to 3000 K. Single-phase orthorhombic GdFeO3-type perovskite was synthesize ...
The iodouranium(iii) complex with two hydrotris(3,5-dimethylpyrazolyl) borate ligands is shown to adopt three closely related forms in the solid state. In addition to the previously reported structure for [U(TpMe2) 2I], in which one of the pyrazolyl rings ...
Hierarchical zeolites are a class of microporous catalysts and adsorbents that also contain mesopores, which allow for fast transport of bulky molecules and thereby enable improved performance in petrochemical and biomass processing. We used repetitive bra ...
Recent publications have reported the presence of hexagonal phases in Si nanowires. Most of these reports were based on 'odd' diffraction patterns and HRTEM images - 'odd' means that these images and diffraction patterns could not be obtained on perfect si ...
The effect of poly(acrylic acid) (PAA), poly(vinylpyrrolidone) (PVP), sodium dodecylsulfate (SDS), hydroxypropylmethylcellulose (HPMC), and D-fructose additives on the growth of BaTiO3 particles by aqueous synthesis is studied. Through different mechanisms ...
Species of Haliotis (abalone) show high variety in structure and mineralogy of the shell. One of the European species (Haliotis tuberculata) in particular has an unusual shell structure in which calcite and aragonite coexist at a microscale with small patc ...
Species of Haliotis ~abalone! show high variety in structure and mineralogy of the shell. One of the European species ~Haliotis tuberculata! in particular has an unusual shell structure in which calcite and aragonite coexist at a microscale with small patc ...
We reinvestigate the Deterministic Lattice Gas introduced as a paradigmatic model of the 1/f spectra arising according to the self-organized criticality scenario. We demonstrate that the density fluctuations exhibit an unexpected dependence on systems size ...
We experimentally demonstrate efficient switching of the hard x-ray Bragg reflectivity of a SrRuO3 /SrTiO3 superlattice by optical excitation of large-amplitude coherent acoustic superlattice phonons. The rocking curve changes drastically on a 1 ps timesca ...
In this paper we introduce a new paradigm for nanowire growth that explains the unwanted appearance of parasitic nonvertical nanowires. With a crystal structure polarization analysis of the initial stages of GaAs nanowire growth on Si substrates, we demons ...
