✦ Synopsis

In order to investigate the pore structure and its influence on the material properties of cement-based piezoelectric ceramic composites, specimens with different ceramic/cement ratio of composite are prepared. The pore structure of composite is obtained by using mercury intrusion porosimetry (MIP). The variety of pore structure is attributed to the chemical reaction at the surface of PZT particles and cement grains, which is different with that of cement paste. And the porosity of composite reduces with the increasing of ceramic/cement ratio. Moreover, the influence of pore structure on the mechanical and dielectric properties of composite are discussed in detail. A monotonic decreasing of material properties of composite with total intruded pore volume is found.

Synthetic alamethicin analogs, in which all Aib residues had been replaced by Leu (L2) then proline 14 replaced by an alanine (L5), were studied in SDS micelles using circular dichroism and NMR spectroscopy. Nuclear Overhauser effects were used as constraints for molecular modelling. The structures

Oxygen interaction of CdS-based gas sens
Oxygen interaction of CdS-based gas sensors with different stoichiometric compositions was studied by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and thermal-desorption mass spectroscopy observations combined with conductivity measurements. Three different types of film with different atomic ratios of Cd/S were used in the study of oxygen chemisorption in a low-temperature range between 300 and 570 K. Spray pyrolysis was used for the deposition of the films on glass substrates; XPS and energy dispersive spectroscopy of X-ray together with atomic force microscopy and scanning electron microscopy were used for the characterization of the composition and structure of the films. It was possible to distinguish different temperature ranges for the thermal desorption of the different adsorbed oxygen species. A comparison of the data from XPS and mass-spectroscopy observations with conductance measurements allows to conclude that metallic surface atoms are responsible for different interactions of oxygen species with CdS surfaces.
