Effects of the Argon Pressure on the Optical Band Gap of Zinc Oxide Thin Films Grown by Nonreactive RF Sputtering

open access: yesAdvances in Condensed Matter Physics, 2013
Zinc oxide (ZnO) thin films were grown by nonreactive RF sputtering at room temperature under varying argon pressures (PAr). Their optical band gap was found to increase from 3.58 to 4.34 eV when the argon pressure increases from 2.67 to 10.66 Pa.

Histologic, metabolomic, and transcriptomic differences in fir trees from a peri‐urban forest under chronic ozone exposure

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2024.
Urbanization alters ecosystems and evolutionary processes. Processes like air pollution by tropospheric ozone contribute to the decline of urban and peri‐urban ecosystems, such as Abies religiosa forests in the peripheral mountains southwest of Mexico City.

In-Plane Behavior of Non-Structural Autoclaved Aerated Concrete Masonry Walls with Flexible Joints

open access: yesBuildings
Nowadays there is still a lack of requirements for the design of non-structural masonry walls. For the case of non-structural autoclaved aerated concrete (AAC) walls with perimeter flexible joints, experimental studies are scarce, and there are no ...

The Effect of Steel Reinforcement Diameter on the Behavior of Concrete Beams with Corrosion

open access: yesBuildings
Corrosion is one of the main problems affecting reinforced concrete (RC) structures, yet there remains a lack of studies in which the electrochemical and structural behavior of corroded RC elements are studied together.
