The x values and electrical conductivities of the nonstoichiometric compounds$ CeO_{2-x} have been measured in a temperature range from 600 to 1200$^{\circ}C$ under oxygen partial pressure of $2{\times}10^{-1}{\sim}1{\times}10^{-4}$ atm. The enthalpy of the defect formation shows an endothermic process with the oxygen partial pressure dependence (1/n value) of -1/3.18 ∼ -1/3.69. The activation energy and 1/n value for the electrical conductivity are estimated as 1.75 eV and -1/4, respectively. According to the x values, the $\sigma$ values, and the thermodynamic data, the defect structure of the ceria seems to be the formation of singly charged negative oxygen vacancies. The n-type semiconducting behaviors could be explained by the presence of excess metals in the lattice as the conduction electron donor.

The MA8 alloy (formula Mg-Mn-Се) has been shown to have greater corrosion stability than the VMD10 magnesium alloy (formula Mg-Zn-Zr-Y) in chloride-containing solutions by Scanning Vibrating Electrode Technique (SVET) and by optical microscopy, gravimetry, and volumetry. It has been established that the crucial factor for the corrosion activity of these samples is the occurrence of microgalvanic coupling at the sample surface. The peculiarities of the kinetics and mechanism of the corrosion in the local heterogeneous regions of the magnesium alloy surface were investigated by localized electrochemical techniques. The stages of the corrosion process in artificial defects in the coating obtained by plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO) at the surface of the MA8 magnesium alloy were also studied. The analysis of the experimental data enabled us to determine that the corrosion process in the defect zone develops predominantly at the magnesium/coating interface. Based on the measurements of the corrosion rate of the samples with PEO and composite polymer-containing coatings, the best anticorrosion properties were displayed by the composite polymer-containing coatings.

Time-resolved photoluminescence spectroscopy measurements of oligofluorenes with various side chains were studied. With extremely pure oligofluorenes, two kinds of red-shifted green emission were observed which have different origins; aggregate formation and on-chain chemical defect. The green emission around 490 nm was largely dependent upon the intermolecular interaction of oliglfuorene molecules. Moreover, by using oligofluorene with high-order liquid crystalline phase, we observed that the green emission was strongly dependent upon the molecular packing in solid films.

The electrical conductivitv of the system $ThO_2-Ho_2O_3$ was measured in the temperature range 600-$1100^{\circ}C$ and $Po_2$range $10^{-5}-2{\times}10^{-1}$ atm. The mean value of activation energy was 1.45 eV. The observed conductivity dependence on $Po_2$ was ${Po_2}^{1/4}$ at $Po_2$'s above $10^{-3}$ atm and was independent on oxygen partial pressure at $Po_2$'s below $10^{-3}$ atm. It is suggested that these dependences are due to a mixed ionic plus electron hole conduction by Vo defect.

This study examined the overlapping resonances in the systems involving 1 open and 2 closed channels using the phase-shifted version of multichannel quantum-defect theory (MQDT). The results showed that 21 patterns for the q reversals in the autoionization spectra are possible depending on the relative arrangements of the two simple poles and roots of the quadratic equations. Complete cases could be generated easily using the q zero planes determined using only 3 asymmetric spectral line profile indices. The transition of the spectra of the coarse interloper Rydberg series from the lines into a structured continuum by being dispersed onto the entire Rydberg series was found. The overall behavior of the time delays was found to be governed by the dense Rydberg series, which is quite different from the one of the autoionization cross sections that is governed by an interloper, indicating that different dynamics prevail for them. This is in contrast to the two channel system where both quantities behave similarly. The dynamics obtained in the presence of overlapping resonances is as follows. The absorption process is instant and dominated by a transition to the interloper line. This process is followed by rapid leakage into the dense Rydberg series, which has a longer residence time before ionization than that of the interloper state. This is because the orbiting period is proportional to $\upsilon^3$ so that an excited electron has a shorter lifetime in the interloper state belonging to a lower member of the Rydberg series.

Although overlapping resonances have been studied extensively in conventional resonance theories, there have not been many studies on them in multichannel quantum defect theories (MQDT). In MQDT, overlapping resonances occur between the channels instead of states, which pose far greater difficulty. Their systematic treatment was obtained for cases involving degenerate closed channels by applying our previous theory, which decouples background scattering from the resonance scattering in the MQDT formulation. The use of mathematical theory on con-diagonalization and con-similarity was essential for handling the non-Hermitian symmetric complex matrix. Overlapping resonances in rare gas spectra of Ar, Kr and Xe were analyzed using this theory and the results were compared with the ones of the previous alternative parameterizations of MQDT which make the open-open part $K^{oo}$ and closed-closed part $K^{cc}$ of reactance submatrices zero. The comparison revealed that separation of background and resonance scatterings achieved in our formulation in a systematic way was not achieved in the representation of $K^{oo}\;=\;0\;and\;K^{cc}$ = 0 when overlapping resonances are present.

In this study, a methodology for evaluating impact strength in rollable devices was developed, focusing on measuring impact strength and evaluating rolling and unrolling durability simultaneously, with findings reported from tests on a real demonstration unit. The study utilized a flexible and rollable polyimide (PI) substrate for the evaluations. The chosen parameters for this methodology were a flat-type impactor, weights of 300 g, 500 g, and 1000 g, a rolling shaft ranging from 30 R to 5 R, and the positioning of the impactor. The results revealed that the difference in defect rates when comparing the 300 g and 500 g weights was minimal. However, the adoption of a 1000 g weight markedly increased the defect count due to damage to the PI film's surface. Furthermore, an uptick in rolling and unrolling cycles led to more pronounced surface scratches on the PI film. These methods and findings are poised to make a substantial contribution towards refining reliability testing for a wide array of rollable device applications, including smartphones, watches, pads, and wearable technology.

New software was developed for the assignment of elemental formulae based on high-resolution mass spectra and subsequent hydrogen/deuterium exchange data. Entire peaks in high-resolution mass spectra were grouped by their Kendrick mass defect values, and the weighted RMS deviations between theoretical and experimental values were used to determine elemental formulae. After this initial assignment, formulae containing deuterium atoms were sorted in order to interpret hydrogen/deuterium exchange spectra. The software was successfully applied to hydrogen/deuterium exchange spectra of resins and aromatic fractions from heavy crude oil.
