The study of volcanic rocks characterization of Sinabung Volcano erupted on September 15, 2017. The volcanic rocks crystal system was performed with XRD, elemental analysis and microstructure with SEM-EDX. Volcanic rocks contain: Anorthite phase 87,11 (wt%), Triclinic crystal, lattice constant, a = 8.1742 Å, b = 12,844 Å, c = 14,204 Å; Quartz phase 2.26%, Hexagonal crystals, lattice constants, a = 4,799 Å, b = 4,799 Å, c = 5,379 Å; Cristobalite phase 7.72 (wt%), Tetragonal crystals, lattice constants a = 4,970 Å, b = 6,990 Å, c = 6,998 Å; Alunite phase 2.91 (wt%), Hexagonal crystals, lattice constants, a = 6,990 Å, b = 6,990 Å, c = 17,282 Å.

On the occasion of this special issue, we start by briefly outlining some of the history and future perspectives of the field of 3D metamaterials in general and 3D mechanical metamaterials in particular. Next, in the spirit of a specific example, we present our original numerical as well as experimental results on the phenomenon of acoustical activity, the mechanical counterpart of optical activity. We consider a three-dimensional chiral cubic mechanical metamaterial architecture that is different from the one that we have investigated in recent early experiments. We find even larger linear-polarization rotation angles per metamaterial crystal lattice constant than previously and a slower decrease of the effects towards the bulk limit.

Structural characterization of Cd 1-x Zn x S : Cu solid solutions were carried out with 0≤x≤1. XRD studies have revealed that the compounds are polycrystalline in nature having either Hexagonal (wurtzite) or Cubic (Zincblende) structure irrespective of their composition. Also the compounds have shown the most preferred reflections due to the plane [101] of CdS(H) and [111] of ZnS(C) in addition to other prominent reflections. The various structural parameters such as lattice constant, average internal stress, micro strain, dislocaion density, grain size, and preferred orientation were correlated with the composition. The lattice constant decreased linearly with the increase in Zn concentration. The sign of internal stress indicated elongational and compressional natures corresponding to hexagonal and cubic phases of CdS respectively. The variation of micro strain appeared to be conjugate when compared to grain size variation, and the variation of dislocation density with the composition showed a higher dislocation density till x=0.4 and then decreased till x=0.8 and then increased. The degree of preferred orientation in mixed Cd 1-x Zn x S : Cu crystals as observed by the maximum peak intensity of CdS(H) and ZnS(C) reflection showed that the degree of preferred orientation remained almost constant till x=0.6 and then increased. The results were explained on the basis of different phases of the compound and the defects related to Zn atoms.

X-ray structural analysis and photoluminescence spectroscopy techniques were used to study heterostructures based on InGaAs/InAlGaAs superlattice for active regions of 1300 nm range lasers grown by molecular beam epitaxy. It is shown that the grown heterostructures have a high crystal quality. The perpendicular lattice mismatch of the average crystal lattice constant of the InGaAs/InAlGaAs superlattice with respect to the crystal lattice constant of the InP substrate is estimated at ~ +0.01%. An analysis of the photoluminescence spectra made it possible to conclude that the contribution of Auger recombination is insignificant in the studied range of excitation power density. Studies of vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers with an active region based on the InGaAs/InAlGaAs superlattice made it possible to estimate the gain coefficient at a level of 650 cm-1 for the standard logarithmic approximation of the dependence of the gain on the current density. The transparency current density of the laser was ~150 А/cm2, which is comparable to the record low values for the case of highly strained InGaAs-GaAs and InGaAsN-GaAs quantum wells in the spectral ranges of 1200 nm and 1300 nm, respectively.

The effects of NiO on density and mechanic strength of Mn-Zn ferrite used for inertial gyroscope were investigated by measurements of crystal lattice constant, Vickers hardness, bending strength. To investigate this further, powder of Mn-Zn ferrite was characterized by x-ray diffraction (XRD) and the fracture surface of Mn-Zn ferrite was checked by scanning electronic microscope (SEM). The investigation revealed that the substitution of Ni2+ modified crystal lattice constant and crystal grain size so that it caused crystal lattice constant of Mn-Zn ferrite to decline and crystal grain size to decrease, therefore it was useful to improve density and mechanic strength of Mn-Zn ferrite by this way. The results show that proper addition of NiO can bring higher density and more perfect mechanic strength of Mn-Zn ferrite used for inertial gyroscope.

Characterization of defect structure in silicon ribbon grown on carbon foil has been carried out. The structure of grown Si layers and a dislocation density in these layers have been studied using selective chemical etching and the Electron Backscattering Diffraction. It is observed that the layers consist of rather large grains, the majority of which is elongated along the growth direction with a similar surface orientation and with a misorientation angle between neighboring grains of 60º. This means that such grains are separated by the (111) twin boundaries. The dislocation density in different grains is found to vary from 102 to 107cm-2. The energy dispersive X-Ray microanalysis has shown that some twin boundaries are enriched with carbon.
