In this study, the steel slag was immersed in CO₂ nano-bubble water by Electric arc funace it was accelerated aging was reviewed through XRD analysis. The main minerals of the electric furnace oxidized slag were spinel and gehlenite, and there was no change with the number of CO₂ nano-bubbles. Minerals such as larnite, calcio-olivine, agnetite, calcite, and spinel were distributed in electrically reduced slag, and the content of calcite more than doubled with CO₂ nano-bubble immersion. Therefore, it is judged that the acceleration aging of Electric arc funace reduced slag is effective according to the immersion of CO₂ nano-bubble.

In this study, the effects of oxide layer formed on the wear tracks of TiN coated silicon wafer on friction characteristics were investigated. Silicon wafer was used for the substrate of coated disk specimens, which were prepared by depositing TiN coating with $1\;{\mu}m$ in coating thickness. AISI 52100 steel balls were used for the counterpart. The tests were performed both in air for forming oxide layer on the wear track and in nitrogen to avoid oxidation. This paper reports characterization of the oxide layer effects on friction characteristics using X-ray diffraction (XRD). scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and friction force microscope (FFM).

Zinc-Borosilicate(ZnO 65.0wt%, B2O3 21.5wt%, SiO2 9.0wt%, PbO or tiO2 4wt%) passivation glasses were studied using differential thermal analysis(DTA), scanning electron microscopy(SEM) observations, X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns and measurement of thermal expansion coefficients. Passivation glasses containing 4wt% TiO2 and 4wt% PbO had crystallization temperature of 680~73$0^{\circ}C$ and major crystalline phases were identified by X-ray diffraction as $\alpha$-ZnO.B2O3 and $\alpha$-5ZnO.2B2O3. As increasing firing temperature, the size of crystalline phases increased by observation of SEM. The thermal expansion coefficient of crystallized glass frits was smaller than that of unfired glass.

This work concentrated on the effect of different laser beams on the microstructure and dielectric properties of $BaTiO_3$ nanoparticles at different calcinations times during the gelling preparation step. The nanoparticles were prepared by the sol-gel method. A green (1000 mW, 532 nm) and red laser beam (500 mW, 808 nm), were applied vertically at the center of stirring raw materials. The samples were sintered at $1000^{\circ}C$ for 2, 4, and 6 h. X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis showed that samples prepared under the green laser have the highest purity. The FT-IR spectra showed that the stretching and bending vibrations of TiO bond without any other bonds, which are compatible to the X-ray diffraction (XRD) results. Samples were characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Scan electron microscopy (SEM), and UV-Visible spectrophotometer. Characterization showed the samples prepared under the green laser to have the highest particle size (~ 50 nm) and transparency for all sintering durations. Laser beam effects on electrical characterization were studied. BT nanoparticles prepared under the green laser show the higher dielectric constant, which was found to increase with sintering temperature.

We study the relationships between the thermal emissivity of nuclear graphites (IG-110, PCEA, IG-430 and NBG-18) and their surface structural change by oxidation using scanning electron microscope and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The nonoxidized (0% weight loss) specimen had the surface covered with glassy materials and the 5% and 10% oxidized specimens, however, showed high roughness of the surface without glassy materials. During oxidation the binder materials were oxidized first and then graphitic filler particles were subsequently oxidized. The 002 interlayer spacings of the non-oxidized and the oxidized specimens were about $3.38{\sim}3.39{\AA}$. There was a slight change in crystallite size after oxidation compared to the nonoxidized specimens. It was difficult to find a relationship between the thermal emissivity and the structural parameters obtained from the XRD analysis.

In this work, we studied electrical characteristics and leakage current mechanism of Au/$Ta_2O_5$/Si metal-oxide-semiconductor (MOS) devices. $Ta_2O_5$ thin film (63nm) was deposited by atomic layer deposition (ALD) method at temperature of $235^{\circ}C$. The structures of the $Ta_2O_5$ thin films were examined by X-Ray Diffraction (XRD). From XRD, the structure of $Ta_2O_5$ was single phase and orthorhombic. From capacitance-voltage (C-V) analysis, the dielectric constant was 19.4. The temperature dependence of current-voltage (I-V) characteristics of $Ta_2O_5$ thin film was studied from 300 to 423 K. In ohmic region (<0.5 MVcm${-1}$), the resistivity was $2.4056{\times}10^{14}({\Omega}cm)$ at 348 K. The Schottky emission is dominant in lower temperature range from 300 to 323 K and Poole-Frenkel emission dominant in higher temperature range from 348 to 423 K.

Znic sulfide (ZnS) thin films were deposited on glass substrates by radio frequency magnetron sputtering. The substrate temperature varied from room temperature (RT) to $500^{\circ}C$. The structural and optical properties of ZnS films were studied by X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), energy dispersive analysis of X-ray (EDAX) and UV-visible transmission spectra. The XRD analyses reveal that ZnS films have cubic structures with (111) preferential orientation, whereas the diffraction patterns sharpen with the increase in substrate temperatures. The FESEM images indicate that ZnS films deposited at $400^{\circ}C$ have nano-sized grains with a grain size of ~ 67 nm. Then films exhibit relatively high transmittance of 80% in the visible region, with an energy band gap of 3.71 eV. One obvious result is that the energy band gap of the film increases with increasing the substrate temperatures.

The calcium to phosphate ratio (Ca/P) in biphasic calcium phosphates powders using X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD) was characterized. The BCP powders with various stoichiometric Ca/P molar ratio were synthesized with coprecipitation process and calcination. Compositions of the powders with Ca/P molar ratio between 1.5 and 1.67 were subjected to starting Ca/P molar ratio, pH = 10, and thermal treatment up to $900^{\circ}C$. The structural, morphological and chemical characterizations for BCP powders with stoichiometric Ca/P ratio were carried out with scanning electron microscope (SEM) and inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectroscopy (ICP-AES) and a phase quantification was investigated by XRD. The solubility of HAp, $\beta$-TCP, and BCP powders was tested in the phosphate buffer solution (PBS) at $36.5^{\circ}C$ and pH = 7.4.

This paper reported a simple deposition-precipitation method, introducing the metal (Ni, Ag and Sn) and $Na_2S{\cdot}5H_2O$ to preparedispersion metal sulfide nanoparticles on the surface of the Multi-walled carbon nanotube for synthesis of CNT-$M_xS_y$ ($NiS_2$, $Ag_2S$, SnS) composite photocatalysts. The characterization of the prepared CNT-$M_xS_y$ ($NiS_2$, $Ag_2S$, SnS) composites was performed by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy with energy dispersive X-ray analysis and BET analysis. Furthermore, the MB degradation rate constant for CNT-SnS composite was $5.68{\times}10^{-3}$ under visible light irradiation, which was much higher than the corresponding values for other samples. The detailed formation and photocatalytic mechanism are also provided here.

We report the electronic structure modification in the swift heavy ion (SHI) irradiated N-doped ZnO thin films prepared by RF sputtering from ZnO target in different ratio of Ar/$N_2$ gas mixture using highly pure $N_2$ gas. The different N-ZnO thin lms were then irradiated with 120 MeV Ag ion beam with different doses ranging from $1{\times}10^{11}$ to $5{\times}10^{12}$ ions/$cm^2$ and characterized by XRD and near edge X-ray absorption ne structure (NEXAFS) at N and O K-edges. The NEXAFS measurements provide direct evidence of O 2p and Zn 3d orbital hybridization and also the bonding of N ions with Zn and O ions. The minimum value of resistivity of $790{\Omega}cm$, a Hall mobility of $22cm^2V^-1s^-1$ and the carrier concentration of $3.6{\times}10^{14}cm^{-3}$ were yielded at 75% $N_2$. X-ray diffraction (XRD) measurements revealed that N-doped ZnO films had the preferential orientation of (002) plane for all samples, while crystallinity start decreasing at 32.5% $N_2$. The average crystallite size varies from 5.7 to 8.2 nm for 75% and then decreases to 7.8 nm for 80% $Ar:N_2$ ratio.
