A series of domino reactions in which the intramolecular Schmidt reaction is combined with either a Sakurai reaction, an aldol reaction, or both is reported. The Sakurai reaction of an allylsilane with an azido-containing enone under Lewis acidic conditions followed by protonation of the resulting titanium enolate species allowed for a subsequent intramolecular Schmidt reaction. Alternatively, ...

Transition metal dichalcogenides are an exciting class of new absorber materials for photovoltaic applications due to their unique optoelectronic properties in the single few-layer regime. In recent years, these have been intensively studied, often utilizing conventional substrates such as sapphire and silicon dioxide on silicon. This study investigates optical molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) mono-...

The effect of titanium dioxide addition on bonding strength of CaO-P2O5 -Na 2O-TiO2glass-ceramic system was investigated as a coating on titanium substrate. Thus, different amounts of TiO2 (2, 3.5 and 5mol %) were added to the base glass batch composition. The prepared glaze slips were applied on the substrate by dip coating method, dried and then heat treated at various temperatures. After tha...

Pure and calcium-doped silica and titanium dioxide thin films were prepared by the sol-gel method. Two different metallic substrates, i.e. stainless steel (316L) and titanium alloy (Ti6Al4V), were used for thin film deposition. Physicochemical properties and roughness of the thin films derived were investigated using the Raman spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction analysis, scanning electron microsco...

It is well known that the features of teeth in men and women can be changed with increasing age, in which some teeth could be damaged. Thus the dental-implants, which are implanted at the positions of damaged teeth to replace the latter, are developed and used widely in dentist medicine. At present, the dental-implants are, in general, manufactured by titanium materials. Clinic experiments show...

In this paper, we reviewed researches about the titanium nitride (TiN) and titanium carbide (TiC) single and multilayer coatings. These coatings were deposited by the plasma assisted chemical vapor deposition (PACVD) technique. Plasma-based technologies are used for the processing of thin films and coatings for different applications such as automobile and aerospace parts, computer disc drives,...
