On the oxidation and on the superconductivity of niobium
Applied Physics A Solids and Surfaces, 1987Most superconducting rf cavities consist on Nb and most Josephson tunnel junctions are Nb based. Due to the very small dissipation in these superconducting cavities and tunnel junctions quantitative and qualitative new surface effects emerge, which are related to the oxidation of Nb.

Electrical conduction in niobium-niobium oxide-gold diodes
Thin Solid Films, 1970It is shown that for voltages between 0.2 V and 1 V (Nb-) a linear relationship is obtained between ln J and √V for diodes with relatively thick oxides (1700 A). The effects of heat treatment under vacuum conditions upon the conduction characteristics is reported.

EELS of Niobium and Stoichiometric Niobium-Oxide Phases—Part II: Quantification
Microscopy and Microanalysis, 2009AbstractA comprehensive electron energy-loss spectroscopy (EELS) study of niobium (Nb) and stable Nb-oxide phases (NbO, NbO2, Nb2O5) was carried out. Part II of this work is devoted to quantitative EELS by means of experimental k-factors derived from the intensity ratio of the O-K edge and the Nb-M4,5 or Nb-M2,3 edges for all three stable Nb-oxides ...

EELS Investigations of Different Niobium Oxide Phases
Microscopy and Microanalysis, 2006Electron energy loss spectra in conjunction with near-edge fine structures of purely stoichiometric niobium monoxide (NbO) and niobium pentoxide (Nb2O5) reference materials were recorded. The structures of the niobium oxide reference materials were checked by selected area electron diffraction to ensure a proper assignment of the fine structures ...

The change of chemical states of niobium with oxide growth was examined in the oxide layers of Zr–2.5Nb around the first kinetic transition by the conversion electron yield – X-ray absorption near-edge structure measurements. The detailed depth profiles of niobium chemical states were obtained in both the pre- and the post-transition oxide layers of Zr–

Niobium oxide solution chemistry
Journal of Raman Spectroscopy, 1991AbstractThe solution chemistry of niobium oxide in alkaline and acidic oxalate solutions was investigated by Raman spectroscopy in order to determine the molecular structures of the various aqueous niobium oxide species. The aqueous potassium niobate species were studied as a function of pH from 14.5 to 0.55.

Oxidation of Polycrystalline Niobium Nitride
Israel Journal of Chemistry, 1982AbstractIsothermal and dynamic TG were used to follow the oxidation of a sieved fraction, 177–250 μm, of niobium nitride powder in a flow of dry 0.1% O2 in Ar. The material underwent enormous expansion during the oxidation. The isothermal weight gain was measured in the temperature range from 817 to 897 K. It followed a pseudo‐first order reaction rate

Publisher Summary This chapter examines the properties and applications of niobium oxide (Nb2O5) and niobates. Nb2O5is extensively used for the preparation of niobates and for the modification of the properties of ferroelectric ceramics. It can be extracted from niobium-rich ores, which usually contain some tantalum, iron, titanium and tin, by either

Binary oxide systems of niobium pentoxide with oxides of common niobium alloying elements
Journal of the Less Common Metals, 1965Abstract A review of the reported work of binary oxide systems of Nb 2 O 5 with Al 2 O 3 , Cr 2 O 3 , TiO 2 , V 2 O 5 , Ta 2 O 5 , WO 3 ,and MoO 3 has been presented. Some of the systems have been characterized fairly completely; for example, the Al 2 O 3 , Cr 2 O 3 , TiO 2 , and Ta 2 O 5 systems.

Electronic structure of niobium oxides
Journal of Alloys and Compounds, 2002Abstract The results of X-ray fluorescence measurements of niobium metal and its oxides (NbO, NbO 2 and Nb 2 O 5 ) are presented. Non-resonant Nb M 4,5 and O Kα X-ray emission spectra (XES) have been measured at the Advanced Light Source (ALS, Berkeley).
