Ruthenium(0) nanoparticles supported on nanoceria (Ru-0/CeO2) were prepared by reduction of Ru3+ ions on the surface of ceria using aqueous solution of NaBH4. The Ru-0/CeO2 samples were characterized by advanced analytical tools and employed as electrocatalysts on the glassy carbon electrode (GCE) in hydrogen evolution from water. The GCE, modified by Ru-0/CeO2 (1.86 wt % Ru), provides an incredible electrocatalytic activity with a high exchange current density of 0.67 mA.cm(-2), low overpotential of 47 mV at j = 10 mA.cm(-2), and small Tafel slope of 41 mV.dec(-1). Moreover, this modified GCE provides an unprecedented long-term stability without changing the onset potential (33 mV) even after 10 000 scans in acidic water splitting at room temperature. The hydrogen gas, evolved during the water splitting using the Ru-0/CeO2 (1.86 wt % Ru) electrocatalyst, was also collected. The amount of the evolved H-2 gas matches well with the calculated value, which indicates the achievement of nearly 100% Faradaic efficiency.

DSC STUDIES ON MELT CRYSTALLIZED, DRAWN AND FUMING NITRIC-ACID OXIDIZED POLYETHYLENE
Akar, Ahmet; Zaim, Ömer; Tinçer, Teoman; Aydoğan, A. Cevdet (Wiley, 1989-4)
Melting, recrystallisation and remelting of undrawn and drawn linear polyethylene with different molecular weight were studied by differential scanning calorimetry before and after oxidation with nitric acid.
Conducting polymers of decanedioic acid bis-(4-pyrrol-1-yl-phenyl) ester
Çırpan, Ali; Toppare, Levent Kamil (Elsevier BV, 2004-05-15)
A dipyrrolyl monomer was synthesized via the reaction between 4-pyrrol-1-yl phenol and decanedioyl dichloride. The electrochemical behavior of this monomer was studied. Polymerization of decanedioic acid bis-(4-pyrrol-1-yi-phenyl) ester (DAPE) was achieved by chemical and constant current electrolyses methods. Copolymerization of DAPE with thiophene was performed by constant potential electrolysis in acetonitrile-tetrabutylammonium tetrafluoroborate (TBAFB), dichloromethane-TBAFB, solvent-electrolyte couple...
Conducting polymers of octanoic acid 2-thiophen-3-yl-ethyl ester and their electrochromic properties
CAMURLU, P; Çırpan, Ali; Toppare, Levent Kamil (Elsevier BV, 2005-08-15)
Octanoic acid 2-thiophen-3-yl-ethyl ester was synthesized via the reaction of 3-thiophene ethanol with octanoyl chloride. The resulting monomer was electrochemically homopolymerized in the presence of tetrabutylammonium tetrafluoroborate as the supporting electrolyte, in the acetonitrile/borontrifluoride ethyl ether solvent system. The resulting polymer was characterized using various experimental techniques. Spectroelectrochemistry analysis of the homopolymer reflects electronic transitions at 434, approxi...
Crystallization of silicalite-1 from clear synthesis solutions: Effect of template concentration on crystallization rate and crystal size
Soydas, B.; Çulfaz Emecen, Pınar Zeynep; Kalıpçılar, Halil; Culfaz, A. (Wiley, 2009-08-01)
Synthesis of silicalite-1 powders and membranes from initially clear solutions with different tetrapropylammonium hydroxide or bromide concentrations was studied. While tetrapropylammonium bromide acts only as template, tetrapropylammonium hydroxide provides both the template and hydroxyl ions to the synthesis medium. The effects of template and hydroxyl ion concentration on the product yield, crystallization rate and crystal size were investigated. Pure and highly crystalline silicalite-1 was obtained with...
Spatio-temporal dynamics of femtosecond laser pulses at 1550 nm wavelength in crystal silicon
Kadan, Viktor; Pavlova, Svitlana; Pavlov, Ihor; Rezaei, Hossein; Ilday, Omer; Blonskyi, Ivan (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2018-08-01)
Spatio-temporal transformation of the femtosecond laser pulses at 1550 nm wavelength in c-Si is observed using the methods of time-resolved microscopy. The temporal dynamics of the pulse manifests itself both in widening of the frequency spectrum and in the change of on-axis time-width. It is shown, that along with Kerr effect, two-photon absorption also contributes to the temporal reshaping of the laser pulse. Despite the fact that absorption length for green light in c-Si is as small as 1 A mu m, generati...
