Hydrogen plasma induced photoelectron emission from low work function cesium covered metal surfaces
2017
Experimental results of hydrogen plasma induced photoelectron emission from cesium covered metal surfaces under ion source relevant conditions are reported. The transient photoelectron current during the Cs deposition process is measured from Mo, Al, Cu, Ta, Y, Ni, and stainless steel (SAE 304) surfaces. The photoelectron emission is 2–3.5 times higher at optimal Cs layer thickness in comparison to the clean substrate material. Emission from the thick layer of Cs is found to be 60%–80% lower than the emission from clean substrates. peerReviewed
Study of tantalum hemicarbide (Ta2C) production by low pressure carburizing
2015
Tantalum is a very dense metal (d = 16.6) and has a very high melting temperature of 2996°C. This material is particularly required for crucibles used for pyrochemical applications. Early studies show that a carburizing treatment enhances corrosion resistance from liquid metals. Indeed, the intergranular attack of tantalum is stopped by Ta2C precipitates, which occupy the grain boundary regions. The production of the carbon saturated tantalum with Ta2C precipitates requires a good understanding of tantalum carburizing.A carburizing treatment on tantalum sample causes the emergence of a TaC layer on surface and Ta2C layer just below. A reduction of carbon flow has enabled the study of the fi…
ChemInform Abstract: Ta1.09Fe2.39Te4, a New Non-Stoichiometric Ternary Tantalum Telluride.
2010
Abstract Ta1.09Fe2.39Te4 was prepared by chemical transport from the elements in sealed silica tubes in a temperature gradient from 700 to 600 °C. It crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2/m with a = 6.162(2) A , b = 7.852(3) A , c = 7.250(3) A , β = 95.32(3)° and Z = 2 . Its structure can be derived from a hexagonal close packing of tellurium atoms with tantalum and iron atoms in octahedral voids and additional iron atoms in tetrahedral voids. The structure is closely related to the structures of MM'Te2 (MNb, Ta; M′Fe, Co, Ni) and MxFeγTe2 (MNb, x = 0.89, γ = 0.93; MTa, x = 0.77, γ = 0.90).
Bimetallic complexes with ruthenium and tantalocene moieties: Synthesis and use in a catalytic cyclopropanation reaction
2006
Abstract The reaction of the tantalocene dichloride monophosphines ( 1 – 2 ) with the binuclear complex [( p -cymene)RuCl 2 ] 2 gives the heterobimetallic compounds ( p -cymene)[(η 5 -C 5 H 5 )(μ-η 5 :η 1 -C 5 H 4 (CH 2 ) 2 PR 2 )TaCl 2 ]RuCl 2 ( 3 – 4 ). The air oxidation of these bimetallic species 3 – 4 , leads to the cationic hydroxo tantalum ruthenium derivatives 5 – 6 . The last ones are easily deprotonated by a base to afford the oxo analogues 7 – 8 . A preliminary assessment in catalytic cyclopropanation of styrene with tantalum ruthenium bimetallic complexes 3 – 8 as precatalysts revealed a cooperative effect with a subtle role of the early metal fragment.
Melting of tantalum at high pressure determined by angle dispersive x-ray diffraction in a double-sided laser-heated diamond-anvil cell
2003
The high pressure and high temperature phase diagram of Ta has been studied in a laser-heated diamond-anvil cell (DAC) using x-ray diffraction measurements up to 52 GPa and 3800 K. The melting was observed at nine different pressures, being the melting temperature in good agreement with previous laser-heated DAC experiments, but in contradiction with several theoretical calculations and previous piston-cylinder apparatus experiments. A small slope for the melting curve of Ta is estimated (dTm/dP = 24 K/GPa at 1 bar) and a possible explanation for this behaviour is given. Finally, a P-V-T equation of states is obtained, being the temperature dependence of the thermal expansion coefficient an…
Melting curve and phase diagram of vanadium under high-pressure and high-temperature conditions
2019
Melting curve and phase diagram of vanadium under high-pressure and high-temperature conditions We report a combined experimental and theoretical study of the melting curve and the structural behavior of vanadium under extreme pressure and temperature. We performed powder x-ray-diffraction experiments up to 120 GPa and 4000 K, determining the phase boundary of the body-centered cubic-to-rhombohedral transition and melting temperatures at different pressures. Melting temperatures have also been established from the observation of temperature plateaus during laser heating, and the results from the density-functional theory calculations. Results obtained from our experiments and calculations a…
Microscopic evidence of a flat melting curve of tantalum
2010
International audience; New data on the high-pressure melting curve of Ta up to 48GPa are reported. Evidence of melting from changes in sample texture was found in five different experiments using scanning electron microscopy. The obtained melting temperatures are in excellent agreement with earlier measurements using x-ray diffraction or the laser-speckled method but are in contrast with several theoretical calculations. The results are also compared with shock-wave data. These findings are of geophysical relevance because they confirm the validity of earlier experimental techniques that resulted in low melting slopes of the transition metals measured in the diamond-anvil cell, including i…
