The morphology and surface topography of calcium silicate coated on Ti6Al4V implant were studied using field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) and X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD) respectively. The surface of titanium alloy plates was mechanically ground with 320, 800 and 1200 grits of SiC abrasive paper followed by surface polishing into mirror-like finish. The synthesized β-CaSiO3 was deposited onto the Ti6Al4V substrate using electron beam evaporator. After coating, calcium silicate was heat treated at 500 °C for 1 hour. Characterization of the calcium silicate coated on Ti6Al4V substrate using e-beam evaporation technique demonstrated that 5 wt% of PVA addition was able to improve the coating-to-substrate adhesion.

Group II-VI compounds have been investigated largely in last two decades due to their interesting optoelectronic properties. ZnTe, a member of this family, possesses a bandgap around 2.26eV. This material is now a day investigated in thin film form due to its potential towards various viable applications. In this paper, the authors report their investigations on the preparation of ZnTe thin films using vacuum evaporation technique and their structural and optical characterizations. The structural characterization, carried out using an X-ray diffraction (XRD) technique shows that ZnTe used in present case possesses a cubic structure. Using the same data, the micro strain and dislocation density were evaluated and found to be around 1.465×10-3lines-m2and 1.639×1015lines/m2respecctively. The optical characterization carried out in UV-VIS-NIR region reveals the fact that band gap of ZnTe is around 2.2eV in present case. In addition to this, it was observed that the value of bandgap decreases as the thickness of films increases. The direct transitions of the carries are involved in ZnTe. Using the data of UV-VIS-NIR spectroscopy, the transmission coefficient and extinction coefficient were also calculated for ZnTe thin films. Besides, the variation of extinction coefficient with wavelength has also been discussed here.

Cubic boron nitride (CBN) abrasive grains with surface titanium-deposited film were heat-treated during 550-950°C for 60 min under high vacuum circumstance. Detailed interfacial compounds analysis by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersion spectrometer (EDS), differential thermal analysis (DTA) indicates that the interfacial reactions are much dependent on the heating temperature to some extents, and the reaction products, TiN, TiB2 and TiB chiefly form the network structure. In particular, at 950°C the transition layers with excellent performance, CBN/TiB2/TiB/(TiB+TiN)/TiN/CBN, is realized.

<p class="abstrak">Calcium silicate ceramics have been made using natural ingredients such as rice husk and snail shell with solid reaction techniques. The aim of this study to determine the characteristics of calcium silicate that have been sintered at a temperature of 900 <sup>°</sup>C, 1000 <sup>°</sup>C, and 1100 <sup>°</sup>C. Samples were characterized by X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), optical microscopy, and Fourier Transform Infra-Red (FTIR). The results of XRD characterization showed that CaSiO<sub>3</sub> (calcium silicate) along with the increase in calcination temperature and quantity was increased due to the increase of temperature of calcination. FTIR analysis showed that the Ca-Si-O bond was formed at wave number ranging from 848 cm<sup>-1</sup> and 999 – 1001 cm<sup>-1</sup>.</p>

Single crystals of para Nitroaniline ( pNA ), an organic nonlinear optical (NLO) material, have been grown by slow solvent evaporation technique at room temperature. Good optical quality single crystals with dimensions of up to 10 × 11 × 3 mm 3 have been grown by adopting the above technique, and good quality single crystals were obtained. The grown single crystals were subjected to different characterization analyses. The lattice dimensions have been determined from the powder X-ray diffraction analysis. Its functional groups and optical behavior have been identified from the FTIR and UV-Vis. analyses respectively. The thermal stability of the crystal has been analyzed by thermogravimetric (TG) and differential thermal (DT) analyses respectively.

Using silicon powders as raw materials, adding nano-silicon nitride as a diluent and NH4Cl3 and FeCl3 as catalysts, α-phase silicon nitride powders were prepared by direct nitridation method. The silicon powders were first milled with 20% α-Si3N4 and 4% NH4Cl3 for 30 minutes. Then the mixture was heat-treated at 1300°C for 1 hour in the pure nitrogen gas. The phases and their content of the as-prepared product were detected by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and the microstructure was studied by scanning electron microscope (SEM). The results showed that the product mainly consisted ofα-Si3N4 with a mass fraction over 92% and were submicron-sized particles.

ABSTRACTThe crystal structures of the undischarged, heat-treated electrolytic manganese dioxide (HEMD) and discharge products are characterized by high spatial resolution convergent beam electron diffraction (CBED). The results are compared with the x-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns characterized by broad, diffuse peaks. The CBED results for HEMD show that the starting cathodic material has the pyrolusite space group, but with a range of c/a ratios. The variability of the lattice parameter from grain to grain is found to coincide with the broadening on the low angle side of the XRD peaks. The CBED patterns of discharge products suggest a reduction range in c/a ratios and the formation of another phase.

YCrxAl1-xO3 nanoparticles were synthesized by a reverse micelle processing for inorganic pigment. Y(NO3)2·6H2O, Cr (NO3)2·6H2O and Al (NO3)3·9H2O are used for precursors in order to synthesis YCrxAl1-xO3 nanoparticles. The aqueous solution consists of mixing the molar ratio of Y/Cr/Al at 1:x:1-x and heat treated at 900~1300°C for 2h. The average size and distribution of synthesized YCrxAl1-xO3 powders was in the range of 10-20nm and narrow, respectively. The average size of the synthesized YCrxAl1-xO3 powders increased with increasing water to surfactant molar ratio and heating temperature. The crystallinity of synthesized YCrxAl1-xO3 powder increased with increasing heating temperature. The synthesized YCrxAl1-xO3 powders were characterized by X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) and color spectrophotometer. The properties of the synthesized powders were affected by such variables as molar ratio, heating temperature etc.

Considerable interest has been shown recently in the hard magnetic properties of Co-Zr, Co-Zr-B, and Co-Hf-B alloys, but as yet no detailed microstructural studies have been published. The Co-Zr phase diagram seems to be reasonably well known, although the crystal structure of the Co11Zr2 phase is only partially determined. This paper will report on some preliminary studies of rapidly solidified Co-Zr-B-Si and Co-Hf-B-Si alloys and binary Co-Zr alloys.All specimens used in this study were prepared by melt spinning. Specific alloys were heat treated at temperatures from 650 to 900°C. TEM specimens were prepared from ribbon material by ion milling.X-ray diffraction studies of these alloys all showed a characteristic broad peak centered around d = 0.205nm. Although it was obvious that this was a complex peak, attempts to deconvolute it were unsuccessful. SAD patterns revealed that major phases in the alloys were very heavily faulted, thus giving rise to the very confusing X-ray diffraction patterns.

Single crystals of KHCO 3 were grown by the slow evaporation technique of an aqueous solution. Characterization of the sample was done using different techniques such as X-ray diffraction, infrared spectra (IR) and the differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) technique. The analysis of the X-ray diffraction pattern indicated that the sample was a single crystal. The results obtained by IR and DSC indicated the presence of phase transition. From the analysis of DSC, the activation energy of transition was carried out by two methods (Kissinger and Ozawa).
