Sol-gel preparation of silicon nitride materials

, 2009
Sol-gel techniques are mainly used for oxides but are of growing interest for non-oxide materials. They allow formation of solid materials through gelation of precursor solutions and can be used to control composition and to produce a large number of ...

Localization effects in ternary nitride semiconductors

, 2012
InGaN based blue and near-ultraviolet light emitting diodes and laser diodes have been successfully commercialized for many applications such as general lighting, display backlighting and high density optical storage devices. Despite having a comparably high defect density, these devices are known for their efficient operation, which is attributed to ...

Photochemical and Thermal Activation of a Diarylbismuth Azide

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
We report the synthesis and characterization of a novel diarylbismuth azide and its divergent reactivity upon thermal or photochemical activation. These findings contribute expanding the reactivity landscape of heavy pnictogen compounds and sets the basis for further investigations. ABSTRACT Azides are widely employed in synthesis as convenient nitrene

Bio‐based tannin‐loaded layered double hydroxides in epoxy coatings for smart corrosion protection of steel in underground infrastructure

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study presents a sustainable smart‐coating strategy for protecting underground steel infrastructures from chloride‐induced corrosion. Zinc‐aluminum layered double hydroxides (LDHs) and tannin‐loaded LDHs (LDH–TA) were incorporated into an epoxy matrix to provide both enhanced barrier properties and active, pH‐responsive inhibition.

A Review of Grain Boundaries: Formation Mechanism, Synthesis Strategy, and Application in Electrocatalysis

EcoEnergy, EarlyView.
An overview of grain boundary engineering in the field of electrocatalysis. ABSTRACT Key electrocatalytic reactions such as HER, OER, ORR, CO2RR, and NRR offer promising routes for storing renewable energy as chemical fuels. However, their widespread application is constrained due to the lack of highly active and stable catalysts. Grain boundaries (GBs)

Transition Metal Compounds as Thermochromic Materials: Classification, Properties, Limitations, and Applications

EcoEnergy, EarlyView.
This review systematically examines how different transition metal compounds—such as binary and multinary metal oxides, halides, sulfides, and salts—exhibit thermochromism based on the d‐electron configurations of their transition metal cations. It focuses on three main mechanisms of thermochromism: phase transition, charge transfer, and bandgap change.
