This review presents the essence of polymer and polymer/metal oxide hybrid nanoparticles
in catalytic applications. The weakness of the modern photocatalytic system such as low …

In this review, we examine the contributions of surface science research to the
understanding of metal-semiconductor interfaces. In particular, we survey conventional …

Abstract Thin films of Co, Cr, Cu, Fe, Hf, Mn, Nb, Ni, Pd, Pt, Ti, V and Zr vacuum-deposited on
SiO 2 substrates of thermally oxidized Si wafers and/or fused quartz were annealed under …

4.1. Kinetics of thin layer deposition 4.2. Kinetics of the gas phase reaction 4.3.
Determination of the reaction order 4.4. Reaction mechanism 4.5. Effect of the experimental …

Experimental determinations of the properties of lead-iron phosphate glasses pertinent to
their application to the problem of the permanent disposal of high-level nuclear wastes have …

Thin conducting films are distinct from bulk materials and have become prevalent over the
past decades as they possess unique physical, electrical, optical, and mechanical …

n-type do** in Si by shallow impurities, such as P, As, and Sb, exhibits an intrinsic limit
due to the Fermi-level pinning via defect complexes at high do** concentrations. Here, we …

Interactions in the Co/Si thin‐film system were investigated by MeV backscattering and x‐ray‐
diffraction techniques. It was found that Si diffuses through the Co layer and accumulates at …

Third-order nonlinear optical properties of Au: SiO 2 thin films were studied at the surface
plasmon resonance wavelength by the z-scan technique using a nanosecond laser. Films …

The growth of platinum silicide layers has been observed using Rutherford backscattering.
By simultaneous observation of the relative movement of the Pt2Si and PtSi interfaces, it is …
