Thin ®lms of nickel manganite were deposited onto different substrates by means of electron beam evaporation from a powder source of the compound and annealed at 500 and 6008C for 30 min. in air, oxygen or nitrogen to study the effects of annealing temperature and atmosphere on the structure and properties of grown thin ®lms. X-ray diffraction and infrared spectroscopy were used to con®rm the formation of nickel manganite; the integrity of the ®lms and their elemental compositions were assessed using a scanning electron microscope equipped with an energy dispersive X-ray analyser. Resistance±temperature characteristics were measured between room temperature and 600 K. The values of thermistor constant (B) were found to be dependent on the post growth treatments; annealing in O2 or air yielded the lowest values of B , 2000±3000 K, while as-deposited and N2 annealed layers had values of B , 5000±6500 K. q 1999 Elsevier Science S.A.

Mechanism and characterization studies on boron carbides deposited by chemical vapor deposition technique
Karaman, Mustafa; Özbelge, Hilmi Önder; Sezgi, Naime Aslı; Doğu, Timur (2005-12-02)
Boron carbide was produced in an impinging jet CVD reactor from a gas mixture of BCl3, CH4 and H-2. The mass transfer limitations on the reaction kinetics were minimised by the jet impingement on the substrate surface. XPS characterization of the produced deposits revealed a nearly pure boron carbide phase containing small amounts of oxy-boron and oxy-carbon species. After a detailed kinetic study, a reaction model was proposed to predict the rates of boron carbide and dichloroborane formation reactions. In...
Effect of calcium carbonate addition on carbothermic formation of hexagonal boron nitride
ÇAMURLU, HASAN ERDEM; SEVİNÇ, NACİ; Topkaya, Yavuz Ali (Elsevier BV, 2008-01-01)
Effect of CaCO3 on formation of hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) was investigated by holding CaCO3 free and CaCO3 added activated carbon-boric oxide mixtures under nitrogen atmosphere at 1500 degrees C for 30-120 min. Amount of CaCO3 addition was varied in the range of 0-50 wt.% of the initial mixture. Products were characterized by powder X-ray diffractometry, FT-IR analysis, quantitative chemical analysis, scanning electron microscopy and BET specific surface area analysis. It was observed that calcium carb...
EFFECT OF ELECTRON AND GAMMA-RAY IRRADIATION ON THE CHEMICAL-COMPOSITION AND ATOMIC DISTRIBUTION OF COPPER-BASED AND IRON-BASED ALLOYS
BINNATOV, KG; RODIONOV, YL; Mehrabov, Amdulla; ALIZADE, II (1990-01-01)
This paper reports that the oxygen, hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen, and sulfur contents of steels and alloys can vary as a result of irradiation by electrons and gamma rays at comparatively low temperatures. As this takes place, the materials can be either saturated with these elements, or these elements can be removed from the irradiated materials, depending on the irradiation medium. Transformations are initiated as a result of radiation-stimulated oxygenation of copper-iron, iron-manganese, and iron-nickel a...
Studies on device properties of an n-AgIn5Se8/p-Si heterojunction diode
KALELİ, Murat; Parlak, Mehmet; Ercelebi, C. (2011-10-12)
In this study, polycrystalline thin films of ternary AgIn5Se8 compounds with n-type conductivity were deposited on p-type Si substrates from the powder of a Ag3In5Se9 single crystal by a thermal evaporation technique. Transport and photo-transport properties of the In/n-AgIn5Se8/p-Si/Al sandwich structure were investigated by analyzing temperature-dependent dc current-voltage (I-V), and photo-response measurements carried out in the temperature range of 200-360 K. In order to obtain the series resistance (R...
Effect of film deposition conditions on the properties of multilayers of poly[2-(dimethylamino)ethyl methacrylate-b-poly(2(diethylamino)ethyl methacrylate)] micelles and poly(sodium 4-styrenesulfonate)
Gündoğdu, Dilara; Erel Göktepe, İrem; Department of Chemistry (2017)
Block copolymer micelles (BCMs) are ideal drug carriers due to their hydrophobic core regions which can encapsulate water insoluble drug molecules. BCMs with stimuli-responsive cores are of specific interest due to release of the cargo by simply changing the environmental conditions, e.g. pH, temperature, ionic strength. Incorporation of BCMs into layer-by-layer (LbL) films is important to keep the BCMs stable in bloodstream and prevent the release of the cargo at an early stage. In addition, BCMs increase ...
