We report on solar-blind metal-semiconductor-metal (MSM) detectors fabricated on stacks of (AI,Ga)N layers with different Al mole fraction. These structures were grown by molecular beam epitaxy on sapphire substrates to allow backside illumination and a lo ...
A postulated biogenesis forms the basis for a synthetic route to the natural product anachelin H. Key steps include a tellurium-mediated, oxidative aza annulation and a Claisen condensation under mild conditions. Experiments with a model substrate indicate ...
The IR and Raman spectra and conformations of the ionic liquid 1-ethyl-3-methyl-1H-imidazolium tetrafluoroborate, [EMIM][BF4] (6), were analyzed within the framework of scaled quantum mechanics (SQM). It was shown that SQM successfully reproduced the spect ...
In-situ reflectivity measurements of the growth surface during deposition in a Hydride Vapor Phase Epitaxy system are presented. The GaN growth rate increases linearly with the HCl flow and increases monotonically with the ammonia flow. Following the repla ...
Novel x-ray spectroscopies such as high-resolution x-ray absorption (XAS) performed in the partial fluorescence yield mode (PFY), and resonant emission (RXES) offer new opportunities to probe the bulk electronic configuration in strongly correlated systems ...
The metathesis reaction of TeBr4 and AgSb(OTeF5)6 in SO2 led to [TeBr3][Sb(OTeF5)6] and AgBr, and that of 2AgSb(OTeF5)6 with 7Te:TeBr4 led to [Te4][Sb(OTeF5)6]2. The crystal structure of [Cl3Te-F-TeCl3][Sb(OTeF5)6] is reported, prepd. from Te, TeBr4 and Ag ...
After assessing the current status concerning the interpretation of Si 2p core-level shifts in Si-O systems, we model the atomic structure of the Si(001)-SiO2 interface using recent photoemission data obtained with synchrotron radiation. Our model structur ...
A dual-polarized, broadband antenna made up of two single-polarized dipoles is presented. The antenna is mounted on a ground plane to produce a low-profile structure. Two fractal-like elements are used, but a very wide bandwidth is only achieved by making ...
We present spectroscopic data on the electronic structure of YbS under pressure. From resonant x-ray emission and x-ray absorption spectra in the high-resolution partial fluorescence yield mode, we find that the Yb valence increases from 2.3 at ambient pre ...
Different ODS EUROFER steels reinforced with Y2O3 and MgAl2O4 were elaborated by mechanical milling and hot isostatic pressing. Good compromise between strength and ductility could be obtained but the impact properties remain low (especially for the Y 2O3 ...
