On isothermality in some commonly used plug flow reactors for X-ray based investigations of catalysts

Dragos-Constantin Stoian, Mark Adrian Newton

We compare two reactor setups commonly used to make operando measurements of catalyst behavior using X-rays in terms of the degree to which they may be considered to yield radial and axial isothermality. We use axial and radial Cu K-edge XANES mapping of c ...

Magnetic and optical properties in degenerated transition metal and Ga co-substituted ZnO nanocrystals

Reinis Ignatans

In order to study the influence of itinerant electrons on magnetic properties of transition metal substituted ZnO nanocrystals, nanopowders containing different amounts of Ga and fixed amounts of Fe, Ni and Mn ions were synthesized. The ions of different t ...

Light refocusing with up-scalable resonant waveguide gratings in confocal prolate spheroid arrangements

Olivier Martin, Benjamin Gallinet, Giorgio Quaranta, Zdenek Benes

Resonant waveguide gratings (RWGs) are thin-film structures, where coupled modesinterfere with the diffracted incoming wave and produce strong angular and spectral filtering. The combination of two finite-length and impedance matched RWGs allows the creati ...
