Essential properties of AlCl4-related graphite intercalation compounds of aluminum-ion-based battery cathodes [PDF]

arXiv, 2021
Up to now, many guest atoms/molecules/ions have been successfully synthesized into graphite to form the various compounds. For example, alkali-atom graphite intercalation compounds are verified to reveal the stage-n structures, including LiC6n and LiM8n [M=K. Rb and Cs; n=1, 2, 3; 4].

Epitaxial growth and electronic properties of mixed valence YbAl3 thin films [PDF]

J. Appl. Phys. 120, 035105 (2016, 2016
We report the growth of thin films of the mixed valence compound YbAl$_{3}$ on MgO using molecular-beam epitaxy. Employing an aluminum buffer layer, epitaxial (001) films can be grown with sub-nm surface roughness. Using x-ray diffraction, in situ low-energy electron diffraction and aberration-corrected scanning transmission electron microscopy we ...

Monte Carlo modeling of radiation dose from radiation therapy with superficial x‐rays

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Superficial x‐rays (50–100 kVp) are used for treating non‐melanoma skin cancer and intraoperative radiation therapy (IORT). At these energies, the photoelectric effect significantly increases absorbed dose to bone compared to soft tissue.

Optimization of allotropic and hardness of aluminum oxide coating by PEO [PDF]

arXiv, 2020
One of the most important methods of producing materials and oxide coating is plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO). Coatings made on aluminum in PEO method have two allotropes of $\alpha$-Al$_2$O$_3$ and $\gamma$-Al$_2$O$_3$. Coatings containing $\alpha$-Al$_2$O$_3$ have more hardness and wear resistance; therefore, the main goal of the present study is

Fast, automated optimization of virtual monoenergetic images with the dual‐energy image synthesizer for cone‐beam CT

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Dual‐energy cone‐beam CT (DE‐CBCT) has become subject of recent interest due to the ability to produce virtual monoenergetic images (VMIs) with improved soft‐tissue contrast and reduced nonuniformity artifacts. However, efficient production and optimization of VMIs remains an under‐explored part of DE‐CBCT's application.

Surface dose analysis and dosimetric comparison of Halcyon versus Truebeam in breast cancer radiotherapy: An OSL dosimetry study

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Breast cancer is a neoplastic disease with high prevalence among women. Radiotherapy is one of the principal treatment modalities for this disease, but it poses significant challenges. This study aimed to compare and evaluate the technical and dosimetric performance of conventional C‐arm linac systems and a new design, Halcyon, in the ...

Investigation of alumina formed by plasma electrolytic saturation [PDF]

arXiv, 2023
The process of alumina coating on the steel surface plasma electrolytic method is a method for increasing the corrosion resistance, in this process, electrolytic aluminum containing compounds should be able to cover the surface. The results show the size of a micron coating of cauliflower shape and distance of an average of about 6 microns. The coating

Nucleation of Al3Zr and Al3Sc in aluminum alloys: from kinetic Monte Carlo simulations to classical theory [PDF]

Phys. Rev. B 69 (2004) 064109, 2004
Zr and Sc precipitate in aluminum alloys to form the compounds Al3Zr and Al3Sc which for low supersaturations of the solid solution have the L12 structure. The aim of the present study is to model at an atomic scale this kinetics of precipitation and to build a mesoscopic model based on classical nucleation theory so as to extend the field of ...
