Electronic sensor technology remains of widespread and intense interest.
High-tilt surface boundary conditions for liquid crystals have been produced using chemical treatment of the substrate followed by standard rubbing techniques.
In this talk we describe a detailed UHV study using high resolution EELS, XPS and TPD, which explores the complex properties of single crystalline nickel disilicide (NiSi2) thin films.
We describe a new approach to investigating chemisorption on size selected metal clusters.
Si 2p core-level photoemission spectroscopy is one of the most widely used tools for investigating the structure of the technologically important Si/SiO sub 2 interface.
HE public mind associates the chemist with glass retorts and evil smells, with war gases or the glare of furnaces against the sky.
The growth of crystals of the new high T sub c oxides has been of critical importance in phase identification and in the determination of the intrinsic properties of these fascinating new materials
Superconductivity has been observed in La sub 2-x (Sr, Ba, Ca) sub x CuO sub 4 at temperatures near 40K.
Semiconductor clusters have a rich and varied chemistry which depends on cluster size and composition.
Production studies of Chinese tones show that tone shapes often deviate from the expected canonical shapes in natural sentences.
