Phase-pure tantalum oxynitride (beta-TaON) powders were synthesized by thermal ammonolysis of Ta2O5 powders. X-ray diffraction revealed an enlargement of the unit cell and an increase of the crystallite size with increasing ammonolysis temperature. Scannin ...
Described is an electrochromic nanocomposite film comprising a solid matrix of an oxide based material, the solid matrix comprising a plurality of transparent conducting oxide (TCO) nanostructures dispersed in the solid matrix and a lithium salt dispersed ...
Post-synthesis thermal treatment promotes crystallinity and decrease the defect d. in soln.-processed nanomaterials. In particular, the annealing atm. strongly influences the functional properties of ZnO nanowires (NWs) and specifically their performance a ...
One of the most crucial steps in the development of oxide dispersion strengthened (ODS) reduced activation ferritic (RAF) steels is the engineering of their microstructure, which includes control of the type and size of oxide nanoparticles. In this work, t ...

Ferritic ODS steels containing 14 or 18 wt.% Cr are produced by mechanical alloying (MA), hot consolidation and cold working. This study focuses on the evolution of interstitials such as oxygen, nitrogen and carbon at each stage of the fabrication route by ...
A ZnO compact layer formed by electrodeposition and ZnO nanorods grown by chemical bath deposition (CBD) allow the processing of low-temperature, solution based and flexible solid state perovskite CH3NH3PbI3 solar cells. Conversion efficiencies of 8.90% we ...
Thanks to its high refractive index contrast, band gap, and polarization mismatch compared to GaN, In0.17Al0.83N layers lattice-matched to GaN are an attractive solution for applications such as distributed Bragg reflectors, ultraviolet light-emitting diod ...
