High-frequency electrodeless lamps in argon–mercury mixtures
2005
In this paper, numerical and experimental investigations of high-frequency (HF) electrodeless lamps in argon–mercury mixtures are performed. The intensities of the mercury spectral lines having wavelengths λ = 404.66, 435.83, 546.07 nm (7 3S1–6 3P0,1,2) and the resonance line λ = 253.7 nm (6 3 P1–6 1S0) are measured at a wide range of mercury pressures, varying the HF generator current and argon filling pressure. A stationary self-consistent model of HF electrodeless discharge lamp is developed including kinetics of the excited mercury and argon atomic states. Based on the developed model, the radiation characteristics of the discharge plasma are calculated. Numerical simulation of the line…
Silicon Surface Passivation by ALD-Ga2O3: Thermal vs. Plasma-Enhanced Atomic Layer Deposition
2020
Silicon surface passivation by gallium oxide (Ga2O3) thin films deposited by thermal- and plasma-enhanced atomic layer deposition (ALD) over a broad temperature range from 75 °C to 350 °C is investigated. In addition, the role of oxidant (O3 or O-plasma) pulse lengths insufficient for saturated ALD-growth is studied. The material properties are analyzed including the quantification of the incorporated hydrogen. We find that oxidant dose pulses insufficient for saturation provide for both ALD methods generally better surface passivation. Furthermore, different Si surface pretreatments are compared (HF-last, chemically grown oxide, and thermal tunnel oxide). In contrast to previous reports, t…
New fine structures resolved at the ELNES Ti-L2,3 edge spectra of anatase and rutile: comparison between experiment and calculation.
2010
Abstract Anatase and rutile Ti- L 2,3 edge spectra were measured in electron energy loss spectroscopy (EELS) using a transmission electron microscope (TEM) coupled to a CEOS Cs-probe corrector, an omega-type monochromator and an in-column omega-type energy filter fully corrected for 2nd order aberrations. Thanks to the high energy resolution, high electron probe current and high stability achieved under this instrumental configuration, new fine structures, never reported before, were resolved at the L 3 band of both rutile and anatase. The data suggest that new peaks also exist in the L 2 e g band. The experimental spectra are compared with multichannel multiple scattering (MMS) calculation…
The α and γ plasma modes in plasma-enhanced atomic layer deposition with O2-N2 capacitive discharges
2017
Two distinguishable plasma modes in the O2–N2 radio frequency capacitively coupled plasma (CCP) used in remote plasma-enhanced atomic layer deposition (PEALD) were observed. Optical emission spectroscopy and spectra interpretation with rate coefficient analysis of the relevant processes were used to connect the detected modes to the α and γ modes of the CCP discharge. To investigate the effect of the plasma modes on the PEALD film growth, ZnO and TiO2 films were deposited using both modes and compared to the films deposited using direct plasma. The growth rate, thickness uniformity, elemental composition, and crystallinity of the films were found to correlate with the deposition mode. In re…
A review on LiNixCo1−2xMnxO2 (0.1 ≤ x ≤ 0.33) cathode materials for rechargeable Li-ion batteries
2021
Abstract Electrochemical and physical properties of LiNixCo1−2xMnxO2 (0.1 ≤ x ≤ 0.33) electrode materials prepared by self-combustion were investigated. Pure LiNixCo1−2xMnxO2 (x = 0.1, 0.2, 0.33) materials with single phase and R-3 m layered structure were obtained as confirmed by X-ray diffraction. Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy, Scanning Electron Microscopy are commonly used to determine the chemical composition and the distribution of particle size of the three samples. The electrochemical performances of the samples were measured at different current rates in the 3–4.5 V potential range. The studied materials exhibit good discharge capacity. The magnetic susceptibility measurements and …
ABSOLUTE THERMOELECTRIC POWER OF Pb–Sn ALLOYS
2011
International audience; In this work, absolute thermoelectric power (ATP) of Pb, Sn, Pb-20 wt.% Sn, Pb-40 wt.% Sn, Pb-60 wt.% Sn, Pb-80 wt.% Sn are measured. Measurements are performed in a temperature gradient furnace from 20 degrees C to 500 degrees C, for both solid and liquid states. Temperatures are measured with T-type copper-constantan thermocouples, while voltage signal between copper electrodes of those thermocouples is recorded in order to calculate ATP of the sample metal.
Structural, optical, and luminescence properties of ZnO:Ga optical scintillation ceramic
2018
This paper discusses the characteristics of ZnO and ZnO:Ga ceramics fabricated by uniaxial hot pressing. The short-wavelength transmission limit of zinc oxide ceramics is in the 370-nm region; the long-wavelength limit is determined by the free-charge-carrier concentration and lies in the interval from 5 to 9 μm. The total transmittance of such ceramics in the visible and near-IR regions is about 70% when the sample is 0.5 mm thick. The luminescence spectrum is represented by a broad emission band with maximum at 580 nm, having a defect nature. The introduction of 0.03–0.1 mass % gallium into the zinc oxide structure inhibits grain growth and increases the free-charge-carrier concentration …

The influence of Cr and Ni doping on the microstructure of oxygen containing diamond-like carbon films
2021
Abstract Non-hydrogenated diamond-like carbon (DLC) films doped with metals and oxygen were deposited by direct current magnetron sputtering. The influence of chromium and nickel on the surface morphology, elemental composition, bonding structure, adhesion force, optical transmittance and nanohardness of the films was characterized by atomic force microscopy (AFM), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), multi-wavelength Raman spectroscopy, UV–VIS–NIR spectrophotometry and nanoindenter. The surface roughness was reduced with the addition of Cr (7.4 at. %) or Ni (8.9 at. %) into DLC films. The EDX measurements indicated that the addition of Cr increased the oxygen content by ~37%, while …
How activator ion concentration affects spectroscopic properties on Ba4Y3F17: Er3+, Yb3+, a new perspective up-conversion material
2018
Abstract Ba4Y3F17 with Er3+ and Yb3+, a promising material for up-conversion luminescence, was synthesized. Excellent isomorphic capacity was detected. Low-temperature measurements show that erbium ions are incorporated in multiple lattice positions, which is inconsistent with the current model of Ba4Y3F17 crystal lattice structure. Activator ion concentration has a different impact on 4S3/2 and 4F9/2, states (for the green and red luminescence, respectively) depopulation. Energy transfer from Er3+ 4S3/2 state to Yb3+ is observed even at low temperature (15 K) while Er-Er cross-relaxation is observed from 120 K and above. Yb3+ concentration has a great impact to red-to-green up-conversion l…
