The rapid solidification microstructure of gas-atomized Al-Si powders of 15, 18, 25, and 50 wt pet Si were examined using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). In order of increasing particle size, the powders exhibited microcellular Al, cellular/dendritic Al, eutectic Al, and primary Si growth morphologies. Interface velocity and undercooling were estimated from measured eutectic spacing based on the Trivedi-Magnin-Kurz (TMK) model, permitting a direct comparison with theoretical predictions of solidification morphology. Based on our observations, additional conditions for high-undercooling morphological transitions are proposed as an extension of coupled-zone predictions.

Characterization of Ge nanocrystals embedded in SiO2 by Raman spectroscopy
Serincan, U; Kartopu, G; Guennes, A; Finstad, TG; Turan, Raşit; Ekinci, Y; Bayliss, SC (IOP Publishing, 2004-02-01)
Ge nanocrystals formed in a SiO2 matrix by ion implantation were studied by Raman spectroscopy. It is shown that Raman analysis based on the phonon confinement model yields a successful explanation of the peculiar characteristics resulting from the nanocrystals. A broadening and a shift in the Raman peak are expected to result from the reduced size of the crystals. Asymmetry in the peak is attributed to the variations in the size of the nanocrystals. These effects were observed experimentally for the Ge nan...
Evaluation of structural changes induced by high hydrostatic pressure in Leuconostoc mesenteroides
Kaletunc, G; Lee, J; Alpas, Hami; Bozoglu, F (American Society for Microbiology, 2004-02-01)
Scanning electron microcopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) were used to evaluate structural changes in Leuconostoc mesenteroides cells as a function of high-hydrostatic-pressure treatment. This bacterium usually grows in chains of cells, which were increasingly dechained at elevated pressures. High-pressure treatments at 250 and 500 MPa also caused changes in the external surface and internal structure of cells. Dechaining and blister formation on ...
Synthesis of iron borophosphates and phosphates with zeo-type structures
Tuncel, Selcan; Kızılyallı, Meral; Department of Chemistry (2004)
New iron phosphate and borophosphate compounds were synthesized and characterized by single crystal/powder X-ray diffraction, infrared spectroscopy, raman spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, electron microscopy and elemental analysis. Using several compositions, Fey B(PO4)x type of compounds were attempted to be prepared by solid state reactions. The solid state reactions of boron compounds with a phosphating agent has been completed at 950oC. A new product Fe2BP3O12 is synthesized and indexed in this...
Analysis of active pharmaceutical ingredients by terahertz spectroscopy
Aytekin, Yusuf Samet; Esentürk, Okan (2017-01-01)
Spectra of solid state active pharmaceutical ingredients obtained by Terahertz (THz) Time Domain Spectrometer in terahertz region of electromagnetic spectrum are presented. Each sample showed unique spectral features in 10.0-90.0 cm(-1) indicating the potential use of THz spectroscopy for identification and quantification of drugs. Spectroscopic information of drugs would be needed in near future when THz technology further develops for on-site analysis and characterisation.

Reported herein is the synthesis of the previously unknown [Ir(1,5-COD)(mu-H)](4) (where 1,5-COD = 1,5-cyclooctadiene), from commercially available [Ir(1,5-COD)Cl](2) and LiBEt3H in the presence of excess 1,5-COD in 78% initial, and 55% recrystallized, yield plus its unequivocal characterization via single-crystal X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray absorption fine structure (XAFS) spectroscopy, electrospray/atmospheric pressure chemical ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS), and UV-vis, IR, and nuclear magnetic...
