Selective wet oxidation of AlAsSb alloys on GaAs

Wet thermal oxidation of GaAs and GaN

Stresses induced in alloys by selective oxidation

Consider a substitutional solution of two metallic elements A and B. When the alloy is exposed to air at an elevated temperature, A oxidizes, but B does not. In the alloy, the two elements diffuse in opposite directions, but usually at different rates; the nonreciprocal diffusion is known as the Kirkendall effect. At the oxide-alloy interface, metallic atoms may either emit from or inject into ...

A Comprehensive Kinetic Model for Wet Oxidation of Silicon Germanium Alloys

We propose a complete model for the oxidation of silicon-germanium. Our model is capable of predicting, as a function of time, the oxide thickness, the profile of the silicon in the underlying alloy, and the profile of germanium in the oxide. The parameters of the model vary with temperature, alloy composition and oxidizing ambient. The model shows excellent agreement with published results, wi...

Selective Oxidation of Xylenes to Toluic Acids

A mixture of manganese, cobalt and lead para-amino benzoates supported on silica gel is used to catalyze oxidation of xylenes to toluic acids in presence of oxygen or air. Reactions are clean and catalysts can be recovered easily and reused.
