Effect of Stoichiometry and Ordering on the Microstructure of Titanium Monoxide TiO .

The structure of titanium monoxide TiO with different stoichiometries and long-range order degrees was studied by using X-ray diffraction, electron backscatter diffraction, Raman spectroscopy, and electron microscopy methods. It was established that the composition of the phases formed in annealed TiO depends on the titanium monoxide stoichiometry. A new phase precipitation mechanism is proposed.

Self-Assembly of AgS Colloidal Nanoparticles Stabilized by MPS in Water Solution.

Self-assembly of colloidal AgS nanoparticles (NPs) was studied in the presence of (3-mercaptopropyl)trimethoxysilane (MPS). Solutions with different molar ratios of AgS/MPS were prepared. The appearance of nano- and microtubes was detected.
