چکیده

We have grown epitaxial films a few atomic layers thick of iron oxides on ruthenium. We characterize the growth by low energy electron microscopy. Using selected-area diffraction and intensity-versus-voltage spectroscopy, we detect two distinct phases which are assigned as wüstite and magnetite. Spin-polarized low energy electron microscopy reveals magnetic domain patterns in the magnetite phase at room temperature.

Magnesium-iron bimetal oxides as an effective magnetized solid-base catalyst for the synthesis of substituted 2-aminthiophenes

< p>Mg-Fe bi-metal oxide was prepared and utilized as a magnetized renewable solid base catalyst for formation of 2-aminothiophenes by means of Gewald’s reaction. The prepared heterogeneous basic solid catalyst can be separated by a magnet and reused without considerable wastage in this activity. The structure of the aforementioned magnetized basic nano-catalyst was studied by XRD (X-ray diffra...

Growth, structure, and magnetism of fcc Fe ultrathin films on Cu„111... by pulsed laser deposition

Ultrathin Fe films on Cu~111! have been grown by pulsed-laser deposition ~PLD! whose instantaneous deposition rate is about six orders of magnitude larger than that of the conventional molecular-beam epitaxy based on thermal deposition ~TD!. Compared to the TD prepared Fe/Cu~111! films, the PLD films have a significantly improved layer-by-layer morphology and a substantially enhanced stability ...

Novel Porous Iron Molybdate Catalysts for Synthesis of Dimethoxymethane from Methanol: Metal Organic Frameworks as Precursors

As a novel performance, methanol gas conversion to dimethoxymethane (DMM) in one-step based on Fe-Mo-O (iron molybdate mixed oxides) catalysts with high surface area fabricated by metal organic frameworks (MOFs) precursors was improved. For this approach, at first, Fe(III) precursors (iron (III) 1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylate (MIL-100 (Fe) and iron terephthalate (MOF-...
