limn2o4 spinel cathode materials have been successfully synthesized by solid-state reaction. surface of these particles were modified by nanostructured lifepo4 via sol gel dip coating method. synthesized products were characterized by thermally analyzed by thermogravimetric and differential thermal analysis(tg/dta), x-ray diffraction (xrd), scanning electron microscopy (sem), and energy dispers...

Thin Ti layers (10 nm) are grown on top of a clean Si(ll1) substrate. Heating these layers initiates a solid state reaction, yielding a monosilicide phase at 350 o C and a C49 disilicide at 450 o C. The present study concerns the growth kinetics of both phases by means of ellipsometry. A diffusion-limited growth kinetics is found for the monosilicide formation. However, two growth rates are obs...

Magnetic Field Effects Prior to 1970 there were several reports of the effects of magnetic fields on chemical reactions, though there was much rebuttal and retraction in this early literature (1-3). Since 1970, the number of reproducible examples has grown rapidly. Most contemporary theories explaining these effects stem from the development of the radical pair theory of Chemically Induced Dyna...
