The growth mode of silver films deposited at room temperature on TiO 2(110) surfaces has been examined by means of atomic force microscopy (AFM) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) in ultrahigh vacuum (UHV) conditions, On clean vacancy-free TiO 2(110) surfaces, 0.1-nm-thick (on average) Ag deposits form a two-dimensional (2D) layer. When the thickness of the silver overlayer is increased, 3D clusters are shown to appear while the 2D film is preserved, furthermore, the influence of surface oxygen vacancies on the growth of Ag/TiO 2(110) is evidenced by well-characterized differences in the morphology of 9-nm-thick silver deposits.

The present paper summarizes a straightforward synthesis of 4,5-dihydro-1,3,4-thiadiazoles by the 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of thioisomünchnones. These reactions have been carried out in dichloromethane and are essentially complete within 60 min at room temperature. Under such mild conditions the asymmetric version has been explored as well. Unequivocal structure elucidation has been accomplished by means of one- and two-dimensional NMR techniques as well as X-ray structure analysis.

The room-temperature phase of the important ferroelectric material barium titanate, BaTiO3, was re-investigated by single-crystal X-ray diffraction on a sample grown by the top-seeded solution growth method, with the intention of demonstrating once again that the structure has tetragonal symmetry consistent with the space-group assignmentP4mmand thus resolving recent controversy in the scientific community and literature [Yoshimura, Kojima, Tokunaga, Tozaki & Koganezawa (2006).Phys. Lett. A,353, 250–254; Yoshimura, Morioka, Kojima, Tokunaga, Koganezawa & Tozaki (2007).Phys. Lett. A,367, 394–401]. To this end, the X-ray diffraction pattern of a small (341 µm3) sample of top-seeded solution-grown BaTiO3was measured using an Oxford Diffraction Gemini CCD diffractometer employing Mo Kα radiation and an extended 120 mm sample-to-detector distance. More than 104individual diffraction maxima observed out to a maximum resolution of 0.4 Å were indexed on two tetragonal lattices. These were identical to within the standard deviations on the lattice parameters and were related to each other by a single rotation of 119.7° about the [11\overline1] direction of the first tetragonal lattice (the major twin component), although the actual twinning operation that explains the observed diffraction pattern both qualitatively and quantitatively is shown to be conventional 90° twinning by them[101] operation. Importantly, it is not necessary to invoke either monoclinic symmetry or a coexistence of tetragonal and monoclinic phases to explain the observed diffraction data.

Triglycine sulphate (TGS), an important ferroelectric material has been widely used in the fabrication of high sensitivity infrared detectors at room temperature. Single crystals of KDP doped TGS was grown by slow evaporation method at room temperature in this study. The grown crystal was characterized by UV-Vis spectroscopy, FTIR spectroscopy, powder X-ray diffraction studies, and ferroelectric studies. KDP doped TGS crystals were found to be highly transparent and full faced. The experimental results evidence the suitability of the grown crystal for optoelectronic applications.  Keywords: Crystal growth; KDP-doped TGS; Ferroelectric studies  © 2014 JSR Publications.

1,1′-Diformylruthenocene, [Ru(C6H5O)2], crystallizes in the orthorhombic system in the P212121 space group at room temperature. There are two crystallographically independent molecules in the asymmetric unit. The cyclopentadienyl rings have eclipsed configuration. The molecules self-assemble in a two-dimensional structure by C—H...O and C—H...π interactions with cisoid relative orientations of the two formyl groups. The crystal studied was refined as an inversion twin.

<p>A recent article entitled “Multilayered stable 2D nano-sheets of Ti<sub>2</sub>NT<sub>x</sub> MXene: synthesis, characterization, and anticancer activity” published in this journal, claimed that two-dimensional Ti<sub>2</sub>NT<sub>x</sub> MXene could be synthesized by selectively etching Ti<sub>2</sub>AlN in concentrated hydrofluoric acid at room temperature. However, the X-ray diffraction pattern of Ti<sub>2</sub>NT<sub>x</sub> MXene reported in that paper is completely different with those of other MXenes. In this comment, it is argued that the samples synthesized in that paper were NOT Ti<sub>2</sub>NT<sub>x</sub> MXene at all. Although carbide MXenes can be made by selectively etching A layers from MAX phase, it is very difficult or impossible to make nitride MXenes (Ti<sub>2</sub>NT<sub>x</sub>) by the same way.</p>

Abstract Scintillators are widely used for X-ray detection in various fields, such as medical diagnostics, industrial inspection and homeland security. Nanocrystals of metal halide perovskites and their analogues showed great advantages as X-ray scintillators due to their cheap manufacturing, fast decay time, and room temperature scintillation from quantum confinement effect. However, there are still many challenges unsolved for further industrialization. Herein, it is necessary to summarize the progress of scintillators based on nanocrystals of metal halide perovskites and their analogues. In first section, the scintillation mechanism and key parameters are outlined. Then, various nanocrystals of metal halide perovskites and their analogues used as scintillators are reviewed. Finally, the challenges and outlook are discussed. It is believed that nanocrystals of metal halide perovskites and their analogues are favorable for large-area and flexible X-ray detectors.

The goal of this study was to investigate the origin of ferroelectricity in Bi4Ti3O12. The bismuth titanate Bi4Ti3O12 (BTO), which belongs to the Aurivillius family, is one of the most interesting compounds among the bismuth-based layered ceramics. BTO is a ferroelectric material with wide applications in the electronic industry, as capacitors, transducers, memory devices and sensors. Aurivillius structures are described with a general formula following form:Am-1Bi2BmO3m-1. BTO ceramic materials is an Aurivillius structure with m = 3. This ceramic materials were prepared by conventional mixed-oxide method of the solid state reaction. The temperature of the Bi4Ti3O12 sintering was selected on basis of thermogravimetric studies. The crystal structure of Bi4Ti3O12 was examined at room temperature with an X-ray diffraction method. Phase formation behavior was investigated using the differential thermal analysis (DTA) and the thermal gravimetric (TG). The microstructure was investigated by SEM method. Based on the Dorrian’s model, the value of displacements between bismuth ions and oxygen octahedra was calculated.

Abstract Here in this research, room temperature ethanol and humidity sensors were prepared based on two dimensional (2D) hybrid nanostructures of tungsten di-sulfide (WS2) nanosheets and graphene oxide nanoribbons (GONRs) as GOWS. The characterization results based on scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (ESD), Raman spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis confirmed the hybrid formations. Ethanol sensing of drop-casted GOWS films on SiO2 substrate indicated increasing in gas response up to 5 and 55 times higher compared to pristine GONRs and WS2 films respectively. The sensing performance of GOWS hybrid nanostructures was investigated in different concentrations of WS2, and the highest response was about 126.5 at 1 ppm of ethanol in 40% relative humidity (R.H.) for WS2/GONRs molar ratio of 10. Flexibility of GOWS was studied on Kapton substrate with bending radius of 1 cm, and the gas response decreased less than 10% after 30th bending cycles. The high response and flexibility of the sensors inspired that GOWS are promising materials for fabrication of wearable gas sensing devices.
