The diffusion of Mn, Cr, and Ti in single crystalline copper was investigated in the temperature range between 582 and 800 K, 639 and 829 It and 621 and 747 K, respectively. Ion beam sputtering in combination with secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS) was ...
The use of many plastic packaging materials such as PVC, PAN, etc. to protect food and beverages is restricted because of toxicity and recycling problems and there is a need for the development of new packaging materials with good gas barrier properties. P ...
Organic-inorganic hybrid coatings are becoming increasingly important due to their unique property combination [1, 2], including high optical transparency, improved scratch and abrasion resistance and excellent weathering, thanks to the synergism between t ...
Effects of nanosecond electromagnetic pulses on metallic (Al) and semiconductor (Si, GaAs) surfaces were investigated exptl. in vacuum. For the surface c.d. 104-106 Wcm-2, an impulse desorption of ions was obsd. from adsorbed gaseous layers or deposited or ...
Charge-transfer (CT) salts such as copper-2,3-dichloro-5,6-dicyano-p-benzoquinone (CuDDQ) are promising components of reversible resistive memory switching devices. In the study presented here, we report on the composition of CuDDQ layers grown from aceton ...
A thin chip polymer-based microsprayer has been coupled to a hybrid quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometer (QTOF MS) and introduced in carbohydrate research. The feasibility of the approach is demonstrated for mapping, sequencing and structural elucid ...
A review, with 9 refs., is given on trace element anal. by mass spectrometry (MS) and potentiometric stripping anal. (PSA). The key question of the problem is detn. of the structure of the samples (i.e. distribution functions and concns. of atoms, mols., c ...
In this paper we present the first results obtained with a plasma ion mass spectrometer in the boundary of the TEXTOR tokamak. Measurements were made several days after TEXTOR was boronised. Comparisons are made with results obtained in DITE under similar ...
Taking advantage of the electrochemical aspects of electrospray ionization (ESI) sources in positive ionization mode mass spectrometry (MS), aqueous copper complexes are electrogenerated using sacrificial copper electrodes. When using 8-hydroxyquinoline or ...
It is well known in secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS) that sample topography leads to decreased mass resolution. Specifically, the ion's time of flight is dependent on where it was generated. Here, using matrix-enhanced SIMS, it is demonstrated that, ...
