Flash microwave synthesis and sintering of nanosized La0.75Sr0.25Cr0.93Ru0.07o3–δ for fuel cell application.
2009
International audience; Perovskite-oxide nanocrystals of La0.75Sr0.25Cr0.93Ru0.07O3–δ with a mean size around 10 nm were prepared by microwave flash synthesis. This reaction was performed in alcoholic solution using metallic salts, sodium ethoxide and microwave autoclave. The obtained powder was characterised after purification by energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDX), X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), BET adsorption technique, photon correlation spectroscopy (PCS) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The results show that integrated perovskite-type phase and uniform particle size were obtained in the microwave treated samples. At last the synthesised powder was directly used in a sin…
ZnO(core)/TiO2(shell) composites : influence of TiO2 microstructure, N-doping and decoration with Au nanoparticles on photocatalytic and photoelectro…
2017
The aim of the thesis is to study the influence of microstructure of ZnO/TiO2 composites on their properties in photocatalytic degradation of organic pollutants, and in photoassisted water oxidation. To realize such study we chose the design based on ZnO nanorods supported on ITO (Indium Tin Oxide)-coated glass electrode. The ZnO nanorods were then covered with a layer of TiO2 under different conditions. The composition and microstructure of the obtained ZnO(core)/TiO2(shell) composites were modified in the aim to elucidate how these parameters influence their photocatalytic activity. The results of studies lead to elaboration of two most distinctive variants of sol-gel procedure that allow…
L’amour aux temps d’Internet : raison et émotion dans la recherche de partenaire en ligne des Chiliens
2017
This study analyzes the pages of online dating, more specifically, the interpretation that Chilean surfers perform these virtual spaces; interactions that occur within these web portals; and the sense that national users associate with their interactions. To answer these objectives not only a number of methods of collection and analysis of information is used, but in turn, the data generated is inserted in a wide theoretical discussion about love and relationships. Thus, in the first part of this work, the imagery of love is analyzed from its main myths and stories. Subsequently the historical and sociological constitution of relationships is analyzed. Epistemological, methodological and et…
Détection d'endommagement dans les composites à l'aide des micro-ondes. Comparaison avec la thermographie infrarouge
2011
International audience; On compare dans cette étude deux méthodes de détection d'endommagement dans les composites : une basée sur la technologie des structures propagatives électromagnétiques dans la gamme des micro-ondes et l'autre basée sur la mesure de champs thermiques dans la gamme des infrarouges. Toutes deux sont appliquées à la détection des ruptures de fibres et du délaminage dans des composites fibres/résine de type verre/époxy et carbone/époxy.
γ-ray induced GeODC(II) centers in germanium doped α-quartz crystal
2011
International audience; Main luminescence of α-quartz crystal doped with germanium results from the luminescence of a self-trapped exciton (STE) near germanium. In as grown Ge-doped α-quartz crystal, the luminescence associated with the twofold coordinated Ge center (GeODC) in amorphous silica glass doped with germanium, was never observed. In this work, we performed experiments to investigate if a GeODC like luminescence could appear after a γ-irradiation of a Ge-doped α-quartz crystal. The answer is positive: under excitation with pulsed light of an ArF laser (193 nm): a new luminescence with two bands -- a blue one associated to a time constant of about 100 μs appears and another one wit…
Raman investigation of the drawing effects on Ge-doped fibers
2011
International audience; We have investigated the Raman activity of various germanosilicate fibers and their associated preforms. Our data indicate an enhancement in small rings' (3-member rings) concentration in the silica-based matrix of the fibers during the drawing process. The generation of such rings appears compatible with an increase of the sample density and fictive temperature. The data regarding the drawing effects on the fiber stress appear less clear, and it is possible to suggest that in some cases the drawing could lower the tensile stress. Finally we have also provided evidence that changing the drawing conditions within the usual range of application leads to no significant …
Radiation-induced defects in fluorine-doped silica-based optical fibers: Influence of a pre-loading with H2
2009
International audience; We investigated the effects of 10-keV X-ray radiation on the transmission properties of F-doped optical fibers in the 200–850 nm range of wavelengths (1.5–6 eV). We also studied the influence of pre-loading this kind of fibers with hydrogen on its radiation sensitivity. Our results showed that, for our experimental conditions (pre-treatment with H2 several months before irradiation with diffusion of all the H2 out the fiber core and cladding before X-ray exposure), this pre-treatment increases the radiation-induced attenuation in the ultraviolet part (200–300 nm) of the spectrum. A previous H2-loading has no influence at greater wavelengths. The nature of the radiati…
Gammarids and acanthocephalans, a multi-(cryptic) hosts and multi-parasites system?
2022
Multi-host parasites can exploit various host species that differ in abundance and susceptibility to infection, which will contribute unequally to their transmission and fitness. "Key hosts" are those contributing significantly more to the completion of the life cycle of such parasites. Three non-exclusive criteria may be used to identify a key host: its high abundance, its high exposure/susceptibility to infection, and the large number of infectious stages produced per infected individual. Many parasites with complex life cycles have evolved the ability to manipulate several traits of their intermediate hosts' phenotype, including behavior, thereby increasing the likelihood of transmission…
Sortie des pesticides: l’agriculture face à sa nécessaire révolution
2019
International audience; L’agriculture pourra-t-elle se passer de pesticides de synthèse en 15 ans? Au-delà des aspects techniques, c’est tout le système agricole, du champ à l’assiette, qui s’en trouverait bouleversé. Face à des blocages tenaces, le JDLE a fait le point avec le chercheur Xavier Reboud, spécialiste d’agroécologie.
Modalités fonctionnelles et évolutives des parasitoses développées par les crabes Pinnotheridae aux dépens des échinides fouisseurs
2010
Ce travail s’est intéressé aux liens existant entre la stratégie d’exploitation développée par un crustacé ectoparasite et son comportement reproductif. Le crabe Pinnotheridae Dissodactylusprimitivus exploite deux espèces Spatangidae vivant dans la Mer des Caraïbes, Meomaventricosa et Plagiobrissus grandis. Des approches comportementales, démographiques etgénétiques ont été adoptées afin de mettre en lumière le fonctionnement et la biologie de cettesymbiose. Par son comportement alimentaire, le crabe occasionne des lésions tégumentairessur ses hôtes. Celles-ci affectent la fitness de M. ventricosa, au travers de son développementgonadique. Dissodactylus primitivus exploite ses deux espèces …
