    Notes: A nonmechanical method for fabricating a metallic narrow constriction between two electrodes using electrochemical deposition is described. The width of the constriction can be adjusted by slowly dissolving metal atoms away or redepositing atoms onto the constriction which can be controlled flexibly by the electrodes' potentials. Well-defined plateaus near the integer numbers of the conductance quantum have been observed in these constrictions at room temperature. Since no mechanical movements are involved, this method has the potential of fabricating nanoconstrictions with long term stability. © 1998 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: We have studied molecular adsorption onto stable metallic nanowires fabricated with an electrochemical method. Upon the adsorption, the quantized conductance decreases, typically, to a fractional value, which may be attributed to the scattering of the conduction electrons by the adsorbates. The further conductance change occurs when the nanowire is exposed to another molecule that has stronger adsorption strength. Because the quantized conductance is determined by a few atoms at the narrowest portion of each nanowire, adsorption of a molecule onto the portion is enough to change the conductance, which may be used for chemical sensors. © 2000 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: We have studied electron tunneling across the gap between two electrodes as the gap is varied by electrodeposition and etching. The tunneling current tends to change in a stepwise fashion, corresponding to a discrete change of the gap width. The stepwise change is due to the discrete nature of atoms and a series of structural relaxations of the atoms at the electrodes between stable configurations upon deposition and etching. By stabilizing the tunneling current on various steps using a feedback loop, we have demonstrated that stable molecular-scale gaps can be fabricated with subangstrom precision. © 2000 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: We electrochemically deposit conducting polymer to bridge two closely placed electrodes, and then form a polymer nanowire by stretching the polymer bridge with the electrodes. During stretching, the conductance increases initially as the polymer chains are aligned in parallel, and then decreases in a stepwise fashion, due to abrupt changes in the nanowire thickness. We study the current–voltage (I–V) characteristics of the nanowire as a function of its electrochemical potential in an analogous fashion to the control of the gate voltage in semiconductor devices. Depending on the potential, the I–V curves vary from ohmic to rectifying characteristics. © 2001 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Abstract Ultrafine titania particles were prepared by gas-phase oxidation of titanium tetrachloride in a high-temperature tubular aerosol flow reactor. Homogeneous precipitation method was used to deposit SnO2 on the surface of lab-made TiO2. The composite particles were characterized by TEM, ICP, XRD, and BET surface area analysis. The composite particles, pure ultrafine TiO2, commercial TiO2, and pure SnO2 were employed for photocatalytic degradation of azo dye active red X-3B in aerated solutions. The result showed that the photoactivity of the composite particles was higher than that of pure ultrafine TiO2 and commercial TiO2, and the optimum loading of SnO2 on TiO2 is 15.3%. The enhanced degradation rate of X-3B using SnO2-TiO2 composite particles was attributed to increased charge separation in these systems.

    Notes: Abstract The resistance to stress-accelerated grain-boundary oxygen embrittlement and notch-bar rupture strength in Fe–Ni–Co–Nb–Ti low-expansion superalloy has been improved significantly by trace yttrium addition. The precipitates in the matrix as well as along the grain boundaries have been studied systematically. The platelet precipitates in the matrix and along the grain boundaries have a hexagonal crystal structure (space group, P6/mmm) with lattice parameters a = 0.498 nm and c = 0.408 nm. The crystallographic orientation relationship between the phase and the matrix is found to be $$(\overline 1 {\text{ }}\overline 1 1 )_\gamma //(0 0 0 1)_H ,[\overline 1 1 0]_\gamma //[1 1 \overline 2 0]_H $$ . The semi-continuous discrete precipitates along the grain boundaries have an orthorhombic crystal structure with lattice parameters a = 0.45 nm, b = 0.80 nm and c = 1.20 nm. High-resolution images show that the interface between the precipitates and the matrix is semicoherent.

    Notes: Abstract The microstructure of TiB2-particle-reinforced Ni–Al–Fe matrix composite has been investigated by means of transmission electron microscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray analysis and high-resolution electron microscopy. The dendritic phase is found to be Fe(Ni, Al, Ti), which has a body-centred cubic crystal with lattice parameter a=1.068 nm. High-resolution images indicate that the Fe(Ni, Al, Ti) phase bonds the matrix very well. © 1998 Chapman & Hall

    Notes: The use of a laser-desorption mass spectrometer to examine a coal liquefaction extract known to contain high-molecular-mass material (from size-exclusion chromatography) has shown the presence of components of molecular mass in excess of 104Da for the first time. The molecules detected differ from each other in molecular mass by a few hundred or a few thousand Da. These preliminary results indicate that the basic coal-structure molecules probably consist of aromatic clusters on a chin, in reasonable agreement with current theories of coal structure.

    Notes: Molecular masses up to 270 000 u have been observed during matrix-assisted laser desorption mass spectroscopy on a sample of bituminous coal; the major fraction of desorbed ions appeared between m/z values of 800 and 5000. Similar mass distributions have been found in a coal-liquefaction extract and a pyrolysis tar. The highest molecular masses identified in this work far exceed previously reported high molecular masses found in coal-derived products (12 000 u), which were also detected by laser-desorption mass spectrometry.
