Influence of an Argon/Silane Atmosphere on the Temperature of a Thermal Plasma

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
The influence of a silane‐doped argon atmosphere on the chemical composition and temperature of a thermal nontransferring argon plasma is investigated using optical emission spectroscopy. As a result of the high amount of free electrons resulting from the stepwise ionization and dissociation of the silane molecule, even a silane addition of 0.01 vol ...

An ab initio study of intrinsic defects in zirconolite

open access: yes, 2011
Zirconolite, CaZrTi2O7, is a proposed ceramic for the use in disposal of highly active nuclear waste. Density functional theory (DFT) has been used, in conjunction with a random search technique, to identify the stable interstitial sites for the ...

Handbook of Establishing and Maintaining Oxygen‐Free Atmospheres

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study presents a practical framework for creating oxygen‐free atmospheres at ambient pressure using silane‐doped inert gases. The results show that ultra‐low oxygen levels and strongly reduced water content can be achieved through controlled silane dosing, drying systems, and sensor monitoring.

Effect of Oxygen Content on Surface and Subsurface Integrity During Turning of Ti–6Al–4V

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study examines how oxygen content in the ambient atmosphere affects the surface and subsurface properties of Ti–6Al–4V during turning. Results show that oxygen does not influence surface roughness. However, machining in an extremely high vacuum‐adequate atmosphere increases surface hardness by up to 7.8% and induces compressive residual stresses ...

First-principles study of the morphology and surface structure of LaCoO3 and La0.5Sr0.5Fe0.5Co0.5O3 perovskites as air electrodes for solid oxide fuel cells

open access: yesScience and Technology of Advanced Materials: Methods, 2021
The slow kinetics of the oxygen exchange reaction at the surface of air electrodes for solid oxide fuel cells must be improved to reduce their operating temperature.

Conversion of neutral nitrogen-vacancy centers to negatively-charged nitrogen-vacancy centers through selective oxidation

open access: yes, 2010
The conversion of neutral nitrogen-vacancy centers to negatively charged nitrogen-vacancy centers is demonstrated for centers created by ion implantation and annealing in high-purity diamond.

Healing of oxygen vacancies on reduced surfaces of gold-doped ceria [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
As an oxidation-reduction catalyst, ceria can catalyze molecular oxidation and reduction. There has been a focus on understanding and enhancing the vacancy formation process to improve the oxidative power of ceria.
