Abstract:
Spatial separation of the oxides in MnO2 + PbO and MnO2 + V2O5 binary compositions activating the thermal oxidation of GaAs has made it possible to locate the interactions between these oxides that are responsible for the nonlinear effects observed in their coaction. The solid-phase interactions enhance the chemostimulating activities of both oxides (a positive nonlinear effect takes place). The gas-phase interactions cause a marked negative deviation from the additive chemical stimulation effect.
