Deposited layer substrate (DeLaS)-A module for radiation measurement.

Infrared Imaging Video Bolometer (IRVB) measures the radiation from plasma in two-dimensions. IRVB uses a few micrometer thick metal foil as a radiation absorber. The foil being ultra-thin has several limitations.

Microwave hydrothermal synthesis of α-MnMoO nanorods for high electrochemical performance supercapacitors.

Pristine α-MnMoO nanorods were facilely prepared co-precipitation (Cp) and microwave hydrothermal (MH) methods. X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns showed pure monoclinic crystalline phase α-MnMoO for the heat treated powder at 500 °C. Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectra showed that the chemical bond structure of α-MnMoO corresponds to the strong vibrational modes of Mo-O-Mo, Mo-O and Mo[double bond, length as m-dash]O.

Kondo scaling of the pseudogap in CeOs4Sb12 and CeFe4P12.

CeOs(4)Sb(12) and CeFe(4)P(12) are classified as Kondo semiconductors, which show coupled changes in electrical transport, thermodynamic and magnetic properties with a low-temperature semiconductor-like electrical resistivity. We have carried out core level and valence band photoemission spectroscopy on single crystal CeOs(4)Sb(12) and CeFe(4)P(12) to study their electronic structure and the evolution of states at the Fermi level as a function of temperature (∼10-300 K). The Ce 3d core level spectra show the presence of f(0), f(1) and f(2) final states with very different relative intensities in the two compounds.
