Catalytic Activity of Cobalt Ferrites in Water Oxidation Reactions and Its Defect Dependency
Cobalt ferrite spinels calcined at 400–600 °C show temperature‐dependent changes in crystallinity, particle size, and defect concentration. A combination of PXRD, BET, SEM, Mössbauer spectroscopy, magnetometry, and PALS reveals how defect landscapes govern opposing trends in chemical versus electrochemical water oxidation.

PALS investigations of free volumes thermal expansion of J-PET plastic scintillator synthesized in polystyrene matrix [PDF]
The polystyrene dopped with 2,5-diphenyloxazole as a primary fluor and 2-(4-styrylphenyl)benzoxazole as a wavelength shifter, prepared as a plastic scintillator was investigated using positronium probe in wide range of temperatures from 123 to 423 K ...

Vacancies in low‐dose ion‐implanted GaN are studied by positron annihilation. Depth profiles of the net donor concentration (ND) are close to those for implanted impurities, but ND is 2–3 times higher than concentrations of implanted ions. The origin of donor‐like defects is expected to be N‐vacancy‐related defects, and Ga‐vacancy‐type defects play a ...
