Raman spectroscopic study of four Spanish shocked ordinary chondrites: Cañellas, Olmedilla de Alarcón, Reliegos and Olivenza.
Shock metamorphism in chondritic parent bodies produces typical textures, visible under the microscope, which are a consequence of structural deformation of the crystals. Such deformations can be studied with Raman spectroscopy. The vibrational characteristics of olivines and pyroxenes, structurally deformed by weak-to-moderate shock metamorphism, have been determined on four Spanish ordinary c...
متن کاملMorphology and composition of oxidized InAs nanowires studied by combined Raman spectroscopy and transmission electron microscopy.
Any device exposed to ambient conditions will be prone to oxidation. This may be of particular importance for semiconductor nanowires because of the high surface-to-volume ratio and only little is known about the consequences of oxidation for these systems. Here, we study the properties of indium arsenide nanowires which were locally oxidized using a focused laser beam. Polarization dependent m...

متن کاملRaman Spectroscopy of Shocked Olivine in the Hungarian L-Chondrite, Mócs
Introduction. The Mócs meteorite is L5-type chondrite, which fell in 1882, Kolozs county. The meteorite major modal composition are: olivine, pyroxene, plagioclase feldspars, and opaque minerals. The meteorite is highly fractured, and shock induced veins are also discernible. The fractures are filled by iron rich material. The sample contains shock-metamorphic effects (especially in olivine), s...
متن کاملTransmission electron microscopy at 20 kV for imaging and spectroscopy.
The electron optical performance of a transmission electron microscope (TEM) is characterized for direct spatial imaging and spectroscopy using electrons with energies as low as 20 keV. The highly stable instrument is equipped with an electrostatic monochromator and a C(S)-corrector. At 20 kV it shows high image contrast even for single-layer graphene with a lattice transfer of 213 pm (tilted i...
