A study of vacancy defects related to gray tracks in KTiOPO4 (KTP) using positron annihilation
For the first time to our knowledge, positron annihilation spectroscopy (PAS) was used to study vacancy defects in KTiOPO4 (KTP) single crystals. Positron annihilation lifetime spectroscopy combined with dielectric measurements identified the existence ...

Microstructure and luminescent properties of Eu3+-activated MgGa2O4:Mn2+ ceramic phosphors
Mn2+ and the trivalent europium (Eu3+)-doped MgGa2O4 ceramics are characterized using a multi-experimental approach. The formation of spinel-structured ceramics is ascertained from X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis.

Proposition of Hyper-Chemical Exchange Saturation Transfer Subtraction Spectroscopy to Detect Very Weak and Broad Signals Hidden Under Baseline and Widen Range of Materials Accessed by Hyperpolarized <sup>129</sup>Xe NMR. [PDF]
A polyimide sample, for which hyperpolarized 129Xe NMR spectroscopy failed to detect 129Xe embedded in the polymer (Inset A), is found to give a very broad peak, line width 11 kHz at 206.5 ppm, by applying the stopped‐flow hyper‐chemical exchange saturation transfer subtraction spectroscopy on the continuous‐flow recirculating hyper‐polarization system

Potential for biomedical applications of Positron Annihilation Lifetime Spectroscopy (PALS)
Positron Annihilation Lifetime Spectroscopy (PALS) allows examining structure of materials in nano and sub-nanometer scale. This technique is based on the lifetime and intensity of ortho-positronium atoms in free volumes of given structures. It is mostly

Characterization of vacancy defects in Cu(In,Ga)Se2 by positron annihilation spectroscopy
The photovoltaic performance of Cu(In1-x,Gax)Se2 (CIGS) materials is commonly assumed to be degraded by the presence of vacancy-related defects. However, experimental identification of specific vacancy defects remains challenging.

Selective Production of Rydberg-Stark States of Positronium [PDF]
Rydberg positronium (Ps) atoms have been prepared in selected Stark states via two-step (1s→2p→nd/ns) optical excitation. Two methods have been used to achieve Stark-state selection: a field ionization filter that transmits the outermost states with ...

Defect Analysis of the β– to γ–Ga2O3 Phase Transition
The role of defects at all the relevant stages of the β$\beta$‐ to γ$\gamma$‐Ga2O3 polymorph transition is investigated using a multi method approach. The positron annihilation spectroscopy based results show that the defect density decreases after the transition, and that changes in defect configuration within the γ phase occur with increasing ...
