Summary: The study prepared high performance Si3N4 ceramic using TiO2, Y2O3, and MgO as pressureless sintering additives. Si3N4 ceramic with a relative density of 99.6% and flexural strength of 785 +/- 23.3 MPa was obtained with 3 mol% TiO2 sintered at 1800 degrees C for 2 h. After annealing at 1700 degrees C, the fracture toughness and flexural strength of samples with TiO2 additives increased, indicating improved mechanical properties after the annealing process.

Summary: As semiconductor devices shrink in size, understanding the fabrication processes at the molecular level is becoming more important. This study used computational chemistry methods to investigate the fluorination reactions of TiN, TiO2, and SiO2, and compared their surface reactivity for etching processes. The results showed that HF can etch these materials, producing TiF4 and SiF4 as byproducts. While the etching of TiO2 and SiO2 was suggested to be favorable, the reaction of TiN was thermodynamically hindered. This study provides theoretical insights into the fluorination reactivity of TiN and explores the etching selectivity between different materials, which is crucial for the ALE process conditions of TiN.

Summary: In this work, TiN/TiON nanotubes were successfully developed as a supercapacitor electrode through a 3-step anodization of titanium sheet and a facile plasma nitriding process of TiO2 nanoarrays. The study found that the highest nitrogen incorporation in the TiO2 structure occurred at 650 degrees C. Electrochemical experiments showed that the plasma nitrided electrode at 650 degrees C had a 9 times higher areal capacitance than the annealed TiO2 electrode and demonstrated superior rate capability and cycle stability.

Summary: The physical chemistry of silicon carbide and silicon nitride materials, particularly in the context of Si3N4-SiC refractories, requires further investigation. The stress-strain behavior of these materials is more typical of composites rather than ceramics due to their composite structure. The classification of Si3N4-SiC compositions as either composite or brittle ceramic materials and the understanding of the role of silicon oxynitride Si2ON2 are also areas of scientific interest. Similarly, the understanding of the morphology of silicon nitride particles within silicon carbide grains is still lacking.

Summary: This study aimed to investigate the structural effect of engineered TiO2 samples on the formation of major nitrosamines during photocatalysis. The nitrogen-containing impurities and leached metal ions from doped-TiO2 samples could exacerbate nitrosamine formation potential.

Summary: The immobilised TiO2 mesocrystals were prepared on sanded glass substrates via a solution synthesis of immobilised precursor, followed by a thermal treatment triggering a topotactic conversion reaction. The obtained mesocrystals possessed anatase nanoparticles with high surface area and co-exposed {10 1}/{0 0 1} facets, as well as large overall particle size and strong binding to the substrate inherited from the immobilised precursor. These unique structural features make the material a promising candidate as a highly efficient and separable photocatalyst. The thermal treatment parameters were also shown to be crucial for adjusting the structural or surface properties and thus the photocatalytic performance of the immobilised TiO2 mesocrystals.

Summary: In this study, the optical, chemical, and electrical properties of SiNx and SiOxNy films prepared under different process conditions were experimentally analyzed. The C-V measurements showed that SiOxNy films have lower interface state density and fixed charge density than SiNx films. Additionally, calculations on the FTIR spectra indicated that SiNx films have a significantly higher hydrogen amount compared to SiOxNy films, which is important for reducing interface traps. The passivation results obtained from PCD measurement were explained using C-V and FTIR measurements for single SiNx, single SiOxNy, and their stack layers on p-type and n-type Si wafers. The results suggest that depositing a very thin SiOxNy layer with low Dit beneath SiNx layer with high Qf and H amount provides superior passivation on p-type and n-type Si wafers, and this passivation is further improved by a subsequent fast-firing process.

Summary: In this study, phosphor powders with the composition of Sr0.98Eu0.02Si2O(5-1.5x)Nx were successfully synthesized, and the effects of N3- and O2- ions on the structural and photoluminescent properties were investigated by varying the nitrogen content. The specimen with a bi-phase composition exhibited the highest quantum yield at 540 nm, related to Eu2+ in the triclinic phase SrSi2O2N2. Low quantum yield in single triclinic phase materials was attributed to absorption of excitation light by defects.

The aspect ratio did not affect the elastic stiffness and compressive strength of the micropillars. Lateral collapse of micropillars was observed in all micro-patterns, with sharklet micro-pattern exhibiting the highest compressive strength. Additionally, as the loading contact area of micro-patterns increased, the compressive strength increased while the water contact angle decreased.
