Overlapping absorption edges will occur when an element is present in multiple oxidation states within a material. DetOx is a program for partitioning overlapping X-ray absorption spectra into contributions from individual atomic species and computing the dependence of the anomalous scattering factors on X-ray energy. It is demonstrated how these results can be used in combination with X-ray di...

abstractin this paper, we investigate effect of fe–intermetallic compounds on plastic deformation of closed-cell composite aluminum foam as filler of thin-walled tubes. however, deformation of the aluminum foam-filled thin-walled tubes as crushed-box will be presented in part (ii). composite foams of alsi7sic3 and alsi7sic3-(fe) as closed cell were synthesized by powder metallurgy foaming metho...

the brass tubes with foam cores of alsi7sic3, alsi7sic3fe1 and alsi7sic3fe3 were produced as the crush-boxes with circle and square cross-section. then axial compressive behavior and energy absorption capability of the foam-filled tubes were investigated during the quasi-static progressive plastic buckling. the uniaxial compressive stress–strain curves of the foam-filled brass tubes exhibited t...

in the present work, a prototype of a new type of solar collectors, which called direct absorption solar collector, was built and its thermal performance is experimentally compared with conventional flat plate solar collector under transient and steady state conditions. different volume fractions of multi wall carbon nanotubes in water and ethylene glycol mixture (70%:30% in volume) were used a...

In this paper, anisotropic graphene plasmonic structures are explored for light trapping and absorption enhancement in surrounding media. It is shown that electrically tunable and versatile spectral and polarization selectivity can be realized. Particularly, it is possible to control absorption of the incident light's polarization component at a specific wavelength by varying the Fermi energy w...

The dynamics of bimolecular chemical reactions can be examined in liquid solutions using infrared absorption spectroscopy with picosecond time resolution. On such short time scales, the transient absorption spectra reveal vibrational mode and quantum-state-specific energy disposal, followed by vibrational relaxation as the energy is dissipated to the surrounding solvent. Comparison with energy ...

in this research calcium fluoride nanoparticles and its different amount of cerium ion dopant (5%and 10%) were prepared. the mentioned nanoparticle were studied by fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ftir) , x-ray diffraction (xrd), absorption and photoluminescence spectra (pl) and scanning electron microscopy (sem). the xrd patterns indicate a typical cubic fluorite structure and no other...

The Ajiki-Ando (A-A) splitting of single-walled carbon nanotubes(SWNT) originating from the Aharanov-Bohm effect was observed in chiral specific SWNTs by the magneto-absorption measurements conducted at magnetic fields of up to 78 T. The absorption spectra from each chirality showed clear A-A splitting of the E11 optical excitonic transitions. The parameters of both the dark-bright exciton ener...
