Abstract. The effects of local B-cation distribution and octahedral tilting on the pre-edge structure in the Ti X-ray absorption K-spectra of the CaTi1-xZrxO3 perovskite solid solutions were investigated. Experimental spectra for the disordered CaTi1

We have applied a combinatorial approach to fabricate work function (WF) tuned Pt-W alloy films and used the films as metal electrodes for HfO2/SiO2/Si capacitors. As the ratio RPt of Pt to W changes from 0 to 1, the WF value varies continuously from 4.7

Sputter-deposited Ba0.5Sr0.5TiO3 films on MgO(001) substrates with either in-plane (c a) tetragonal lattice distortions were characterized by polarization-dependent Ti K-edge x-ray absorption fine-structure (XAFS) spectroscopy and microwave dielectric

A micromolding technique in capillaries was adapted to make uniform patterns of polypyrrole (Ppy), and the conductivities of the patterns were measured by direct contact IV curves and conductance AFM methods. Noncovalently bound Ppy patterns have high

This paper reports the texture analysis as well as the identification of two crystalline phases between a thin film of monoclinic Ca3Co4O9 and a cubic (100) Si substrate, using a diffractometer equipped with a 2-dimensional area detector. No reflections
An earlier analysis of chipping fracture in brittle solids is here extended to include the case of blocks with inclined side faces and non-normal contact loading. The simple relation PF = Kch3/2 for the critical chipping load PF in terms of indent location

Pulsed laser deposition (PLD) is a powerful technique for growing continuous spread thin film libraries of continuously varying composition as a function of position on a substrate. Continuous spread thin film libraries are grown by striking a ceramic
When diluted in some solvents, surfactants and block copolymers self-assemble into micelles or vesicles of about 10-100 nm in size. There is a great deal of interest in micelles and vesicles because they are widely used in the formulations industry, and

A research program on failure modes induced by spherical indenters in brittle layer structures bonded to polymeric substrates, in simulation of occlusal function in all-ceramic dental crowns, is surveyed. Tests are made on model flat and curved layers
The role of a tangential load component in cyclic contact-induced failure of a brittle coating layer is investigated. Tests are conducted on model bilayer systems consisting of glass plates bonded to polymeric substrates, using a spherical indenter in

We present high resolution X-ray diffraction data indicating regularly ordered square shaped coherent domains approximately 1200A in length co-existing with longer approximately 9500A correlated regions in a highly strained 5ML SrTiO3 (STO) film grown on
