Crystalline CuO and Cu2O nanowires with an average diameter of about 10 nm and lengths of several tens of microns were successfully synthesized, depending on synthesis conditions, using precursor Cu(OH)2 nanowires as templates. The crystallinity, purity, morphology, and structural features of the as-prepared nanowires were characterized by powder x-ray diffraction, selected-area electron diffraction, and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy. The results showed that the precursor polycrystalline Cu(OH)2 nanowires served as both reactants for the growth of CuO and Cu2O nanowires, and as templates controlling the size and shape of the resulting nanowires.

By means of sonochemical method, Fe 3 O 4 and ZnFe 2 O 4 nanocrystallines can be synthesized from FeCl 2/ urea and ZnCl 2/ FeCl 2/ urea in water. The products were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) as well as selected area electron diffraction (SAED). Special attention was paid to the microstructure of the nanocrystallines using high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HREM). Probable mechanisms for the sonochemical formation of Fe 3 O 4 and ZnFe 2 O 4 nanocrystallines are discussed.

The Pr3+:LaF3 (CPr = 3, 7, 12, 20, 30%) nanoparticles were characterized by means of high-resolution transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, optical spectroscopy, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, dynamic light scattering, and MTT assay. It was revealed that the average diameter of all the NPs is around 14–18 nm. The hydrodynamic radius of the Pr3+:LaF3 (CPr = 7%) nanoparticles strongly depends on the medium. It was revealed that hydrodynamic radii of the Pr3+:LaF3 (CPr = 7%) nanoparticles in water, DMEM, and RPMI-1640 biological mediums were 18 ± 5, 41 ± 6, and 186 ± 8 nm, respectively. The Pr3+:LaF3 (CPr = 7%) nanoparticles were nontoxic at micromolar concentrations toward COLO-320 cell line. The lifetime curves were fitted biexponentially, and for the Pr3+:LaF3 (CPr = 7%) NPs, the luminescence lifetimes of Pr3+ ions were 480 ± 2 and 53 ± 5 nanosec.

Resolution Study

The phenomenon of clustering in Al-Ag alloys has been extensively studied since the early work of Guinierl, wherein the pre-precipitation state was characterized as an assembly of spherical, ordered, silver-rich G.P. zones. Subsequent x-ray and TEM investigations yielded results in general agreement with this model. However, serious discrepancies were later revealed by the detailed x-ray diffraction - based computer simulations of Gragg and Cohen, i.e., the silver-rich clusters were instead octahedral in shape and fully disordered, atleast below 170°C. The object of the present investigation is to examine directly the structural characteristics of G.P. zones in Al-Ag by high resolution transmission electron microscopy.

The precipitates of Al-5Zn-0.02In-1Mg-0.05Ti-0.5Ce (wt %) anode alloy were studied by scanning electron microscopy, X-ray microanalysis, high resolution transmission electron microscopy and selected area electron diffraction analyses in the present work. The results show that the alloy mainly contains hexagonal structure MgZn2 and tetragonal structure Al2CeZn2 precipitates. From high resolution transmission electron microscopy and selected area electron diffraction, aluminium, Al2CeZn2 and MgZn2 phases have [0 1 -1]Al|| [1 -10]Al2CeZn2|| [-1 1 0 1]MgZn2orientation relation, and Al2CeZn2 and MgZn2 phases have the [0 2 -1]Al2CeZn2|| [0 1 -10]MgZn2orientation relation.

AbstractKaolinite and synthetic γ-Al(OH)3 (gibbsite or hydrargillite) were reacted with phenylphosphonic, phenylphosphinic and 2-nitrophenol-4-arsonic acids. The products were studied by powder X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy/selected area electron diffraction/ energy dispersive X-ray/Fourier transform infrared and simultaneous thermogravimetric/differential thermal analysis. The acids were not intercalated but, instead, easily destroyed the structure of the minerals. Lamellar Al phenylphosphonate and aluminium phenylphosphinate and phenylarsonate with polymeric linear-chain structures were formed from kaolinite. The reaction between gibbsite and the same acids yielded almost identical products. No evidence of formation of grafted kaolinite derivatives after the reaction with phenylphosphonic acid was found.

The structure and hardness of C60 bulk specimens compressed under 5.5 GPa at room temperature to 600 °C are investigated by high-resolution transmission electron microscopy, x-ray diffraction, and micro-Vickers hardness tests. A strong accumulation of the [1 1 0]tr orientation of high-pressure-treated C60 specimens was developed along the compression axis, and stacking faults and nano-sized deformation twins were introduced into the C60 specimens compressed at 450–600 °C. Curved lattice planes indicating a polymerization of C60 were observed by high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM). The polymerization of the high-pressure-compressed C60 is also supported by the computer simulation of HRTEM images.
