The correlation between microstructure evolution and increasing processing temperature of a polymer-derived SiOC ceramic with a high volume fraction of free carbon was studied by transmission electron microscopy (TEM).

This is the first report of Post-stishovite was found in zagami meteorite in the maskelynite outside of shock-induced melt vein. The mineralogy assemblages of melt vein, including stishovite, pyroxene and…

Energy-resolved competitive collision-induced dissociation is used to investigate the proton-bound heterodimer anions of a series of carboxylic acids (formic, acetic, and benzoic acid) and nitrous acid with their conjugate bases.

A new functionalized and crosslinkable P(VDF-CTFE) (vinylidene fluoride/chlorotrifluoroethylene copolymer) was synthesized using functional borane/oxygen initiator and grafted with styrene (St) via atom transfer radical polymerization followed by partial or the…

Different from usual glancing-angle deposition where low surface diffusion is necessary to form nanorods, strong surface diffusion mediated glancing-angle deposition is exemplified by growing tin nanorod films on both silicon…

In this paper we develop a new technique for determining the indenter tip shape using both indentation loads and displacements and direct scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images of the impressions…
