Sol-gel nanostructured titania materials have been reported to have applications in areas ranging from optics via solar energy to gas sensors. In order to enhance the photocatalytic activity, there are many studies regarding the doping of titanium dioxide (TiO2) material with either non-metals (S, C, N, P) or metals (Ag, Pt, Nd, Fe). The present work has studied some un-doped and Pd-doped sol-gel TiO2 materials (films and gels), with various surface morphologies and structures, obtained by simultaneous gelation of both precursors Ti(OEt)4 and Pd(acac)2. Their structural evaluation and crystallization behavior with thermal treatment were followed by DTA/TG analysis, infrared (IR) spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), spectroellipsometry (SE), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and atomic force microscope (AFM). The influence of Pd on TiO2 crystallization for both supported and un-supported materials was studied (lattice parameters, crystallite sizes, internal microstrains). The changes in the optical properties of the TiO2-based vitreous materials were correlated with the changes of the structure. The hydrophilic properties of the films were also connected with their structure, composition and surface morphology. 相似文献
A Bianchi type-I cosmological model in the presence of a magnetic flux along a cosmological string is investigated. The objective
of this study is to generate solutions to the Einstein equations using a few tractable assumptions usually accepted in the
literature. The analytical solutions are supplemented with numerical and qualitative analysis. In the frame of the present
model the evolution of the Universe and other physical aspects are discussed. 相似文献

Films of polyaniline (PANI) featuring about 80% crystallinity and characterised with strong π‐π stacking alignment parallel to the film surface have been obtained directly after the original synthesis upon simple drying of the aqueous PANI suspension. A strong anisotropy in the growth of the nano‐sized crystals produced during the synthesis results in the formation of micrometer‐length fibrils perpendicular to the film surface in the course of water evaporation. The regular intercalation of water molecules between the PANI chains seems to be crucial for their ordering throughout the synthesis and film formation.
