For the first time, nanoscale phases and layers of BaSi 2 were obtained by implantation Ba + ions with an energy E 0 =20-30 keV in surface layer Si(111). In particular, it is shown that at a dose D~10 15 cm -2 nanophases band gap g ~0.85 eV are formed, 17 nanolayer =0.67 eV. The composition structure barium disilicide nanostructure investigated light absorption spectroscopy Auger electron spect...

In this study, HA is superplastically embedded into Titanium substrate and the sample is subsequently deformed superplastically until 70% deformation degree. The former process is termed as superplastic embedment (SPE) while the later as superplastic deformation (SPD). After the SPE, HA is successfully embedded into the substrate, forming a layer with a thickness of about 249 nm. After the SPD ...

Two-dimensional (2D) materials, an electrifying family of innovative have recently attracted wide attention due to their remarkable characteristics, primarily high optical transparency, exceptional metallic conductivity, mechanical strength, carrier mobility, tunable band gap values, and optimum work function. Interestingly, 2D-nanosheets/nanolayers (2D-NLs) might be synthesized into single/mul...

The paper is focused on the preparation and surface characterization of gold coatings and nanostructures deposited on glass substrate. Different approaches for the layer preparation were applied. The gold was deposited on the glass with (i) room temperature, (ii) glass heated to 300°C, and (iii) the room temperature-deposited glass which was consequently annealed to 300°C. The sheet resistance ...
