Effect of oxidation post treatments on TiO2 coating manufactured using reactive very low-pressure plasma spraying (R-VLPPS)
2020
Abstract TiO2 coatings manufactured using reactive very low-pressure plasma spraying (R-VLPPS) were analyzed in different regions related to their position compared to the plasma flame. For that, a screen was used in order to hide an area of the substrate from the direct plasma flux. The coating morphology changed from quasi lamellar structure to highly vapor structure and coatings exhibited obvious modifications in terms of phases and mechanical properties. The effect of oxidation post treatment on the as sprayed coating was then studied by selecting two methods: in situ oxidation post treatment and classical thermal treatment. The two post treatments provided an increase of the main rutil…
Crystalline phase detection in glass ceramics by EPR spectroscopy
2018
The advances of EPR spectroscopy for the detection of activators as well as determining their local structure in the crystalline phase of glass ceramics is considered. The feasibility of d-element (Mn2+, Cu2+) and f-element (Gd3+, Eu2+) ion probes for the investigation of glass ceramics is discussed. In the case of Mn2+, the information is obtained from the EPR spectrum superhyperfine structure, for Gd3+ and Eu2+ probes – from the EPR spectrum fine structure, whereas for Cu2+ ions the changes in the EPR spectrum shape could be useful. The examples of EPR spectra of the above-mentioned probes in oxyfluoride glass ceramics are illustrated. ----/ / /---- This is the preprint version of the fol…

Stopping cross-section measurements of 4He in TiN1.1O0.27
2000
Abstract The stopping cross-section for 4He projectiles in TiNx compounds has been measured using the backscattering method. A multi-compound marker layer deposited between the test film and the substrate was used to obtain the stopping cross-section at several energies with one energy of the incident beam. Two RBS spectra at definite tilt angles of the sample are taken for each beam energy. The assistance of computer codes to synthesize RBS spectra is very useful to obtain the pertinent information from the displacements of the peaks of the marker layers. Stopping cross-section values are obtained with an estimated uncertainty of about 6%.

Defect-related photoluminescence and photoluminescence excitation as a method to study the excitonic bandgap of AlN epitaxial layers: Experimental an…
2020
We report defect-related photoluminescence (PL) and its vacuum ultraviolet photoluminescence excitation (PLE) spectra of aluminum nitride layers with various layer thicknesses and dislocation densities grown on two different substrates: sapphire and silicon. The defect-related transitions have been distinguished and examined in the emission and excitation spectra investigated under synchrotron radiation. The broad PL bands of two defect levels in the AlN were detected at around 3 eV and 4 eV. In the PLE spectra of these bands, a sharp excitonic peak originating most probably from the A-exciton of AlN was clearly visible. Taking into account the exciton binding energy, the measurements allow…
