ABSTRACTThe interfacial reaction between 10 nm Ni(Pt ∼0, 5, 10 at.%) and (100) Si0.75Ge0.25 substrate after rapid thermal annealing between 400 and 800°C has been studied in detail using Micro- Raman spectroscopy. Only monogermanosilicide phase was detected in the temperature range investigated. The evolution of a broad Ni(Pt)SiGe Raman peak into two distinct peaks with increasing annealing temperature is attributed to a Ge out-diffusion from the germanosilicide grains. In addition, Raman spectroscopy further proves that depletion of Ge concentration in the Ni(Pt)SiGe grains reduces at higher temperature by the addition of Pt. The above phenomena were further supported by X-ray diffraction method.

X-ray diffraction, Mossbauer spectroscopy, and magnetic measurements have been used to study the phase formation and doping during mechanical synthesis (MS) and subsequent annealing of the alloy (Fe0.80Cr0.05Ni0.15)75C25. It has been shown that, after MS, the nanocomposite contains mainly two phases – an amorphous phase and cementite A. During annealing, as a result of crystallization of the amorphous phase, cementite B is formed, in which contains more nickel than in the mechanically synthesized cementite A. As the annealing temperature increases, austenite, which is inhomogeneous in nickel content, is formed. The Curie temperature of this austenite reaches 500 °C. It has been determined that cementite in the mechanosynthesized nanocomposite (Fe,Cr,Ni)75C25 has a higher temperature stabilitythan that in a MS composite (Fe,Ni)75C25.

A unique combination of in situ synchrotron x-ray diffraction and in situ micro-Raman spectroscopy was used to study the growth process of YBa2Cu3O6+x films obtained by metal organic decomposition using trifluoroacetate precursor on LaAlO3 substrates. The techniques give complementary information: x-ray diffraction gives insight into the structural growth, whereas micro-Raman spectroscopy gives information of the chemical composition with additional information on the texture. To perform both experiments in situ, a special high-temperature process chamber was designed.

The paper addresses the issue of health risk associated with the presence of chrysotile in the soil type ranker formed on massive serpentines occurring in the area of Bubanj Potok, a settlement located in the southern Belgrade environs, Serbia. Characterization of the ranker soil was conducted by scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, micro-Raman spectroscopy and transmission 57Fe M?ssbauer spectroscopy. Scanning electron microscopy figures showed regular shaped smectite (montmorillonite) particles, aggregates of chlorite, and elongated sheets of serpentines minerals antigorite. X-ray diffraction analysis confirmed the presence of detrital mineral quartz polymorph as well as minor amounts of other mineral species. Micro-Raman spectroscopy identified the presence of dominant minerals, such as montmorillonite, kaolinite, muscovite, gypsum, calcite, albite, amphiboles (hornblende/kaersutite) and orthoclase. Important polymorph silica modifications of quartz, olivine (forsterite), pyroxene (enstatite/ferrosilite, diopside/hedenbergite), and serpentine (antigorite/lizardite/chrysotile) were identified.

AbstractIn this work, the Ni/Co/Si system was annealed at temperatures ranging from 300 °C to 800 °C. The samples were characterized by means of X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman spectroscopy, Rutherford backscattering spectroscopy (RBS), atomic force microscopy (AFM) and sheet resistance measurement. The XRD and Raman spectroscopy results showed that the formation of nickel and cobalt silicides (CoSi, Co2Si, Ni2Si, NiSi, NiSi2, CoSi2) is an annealing temperature dependent diffusion process. The diffusion phenomenon was evidenced by RBS. The low values of the sheet resistance which were correlated with the films surface roughness were attributed to the formation of both CoSi and NiSi phases.
