“…6a. The CA varied from an initial value of 108 • at 10 s to 14 • within 300 s and disappears completely after 310 s. The surface energy of Ta 2 O 5 controls the surface CA [24]. The addition of Ag increases the hydrophobicity in the TaON/Ag film surface leading to longer absorption times for the water droplet as shown in Fig.…”

“…At longer deposition times, the Auger parameter at 725.65 eV suggests the formation of Ag 0 along a low amount of ionic silver. To separate the ionic states of Ag is not a simple matter due to the electrostatic charging of the sample but shifts of 0.2 eV or more are generally accepted as evidence for the change in the electronic configuration of a species detected by XPS [24]. Values for the Ag Auger parameter in Table 3 present the oxidation state of silver.…”

“…A particular characteristic of aging is the sharp decrease in adsorption capacity 43 . Amorphous precipitates are converted into crystalline with formation of ScOOH in the case of scandium but presumably of Me(OH) 3 in the other cases. The Me(OH) 3 hydroxides described in the Iiterature were as a rule obtained at high temperatures with application of high pressures44.…”

The Me(OH) 3 hydroxides described in the Iiterature were as a rule obtained at high temperatures with application of high pressures44. In the dehydration of hydroxides to oxides, the occurrence of the intermediate MeOOH could be demonstrated in many instances.…”
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
