Infinite products for power series

An algorithm is introduced and shown to lead to a unique infinite product representation for a given formal power series A(z) with A(0) = 1. The infinite product is , where all b_n ≠ 0, r_n , and r_n+1 > r_n. The degree of approximation by the polynomial (1 + b₁z^r₁) · · · (1 + b_nz^r_n) is also considered.     

TEM investigations on PECVD-titanium carbide layers

TiC_x-PECVD-layers were characterized by TEM. EDX analysis and electron diffraction. TiC_x-layers deposited using benzene showed a columnar structure, at which the column size decreases with rising excess carbon content. TiC_x-layers deposited using n-heptane presented a lamellar structure, at which the lamellar thickness diminishes with an increasing excess carbon content. In dependence on the layer thickness a periodic progress of the element contents was observed, at which a maximum for Ti and Cl correlates with a minimum for C. It was found that the incorporated chlorine is bonded to titanium. The lattice parameter depends on the chlorine content. Using TiCl₄/H₂/Ar-gas mixtures without any hydrocarbon, layers containing TiH₂ are formed.

On the spectral picture of an irreducible subnormal operator II

In this paper we show that the spectral picture of an irreducible subnormal operator may be arbitrarily prescribed subject only to certain natural necessary conditions. This completes work begun by the second author.
