Anodic films on Bismuth
… defect structure of anodic oxide films formed on bismuth in aqueous electrolytes. The early stages in the formation of continuous anodic layers of bismuth oxide were studied using the technique of cyclic voltammetry. During this period, the oxide, Bi2O3, covered the surface by a process of …

Nanocalorimetry of Bismuth Nanoparticles
… finite element analysis and simulated melting of bismuth films on various kinds of sensors. Temperature distributions are found to be nonuniform for calorimetric sensors with Al metallizations, but much more uniform for Pt metallized sensors. The consequences of this nonuniformity on caloric data …

High-pressure states of bismuth
Bismuth is among the most studied of all elements, but its behaviour under pressure exhibits myriad unexpected puzzles even after many decades of research. Bismuth narrowly avoids being an insulator: a Peierls-type distortion almost completely gaps the electronic energy bands, producing a …

BISMUTH-FUNCTIONALIZED SORBENTS FOR RADIOIODINE CAPTURE
… have a higher surface area of 1068 ± 113 m2g-1. Bismuth nanoparticles were loaded into silica xerogel during the sol-gel process and its iodine capture performance was evaluated. Xerogel made with porogens captured more iodine (526 ± 31 mg g-1) compared to xerogel without porogen of same bismuth …

Progress toward a cloneable bismuth nanoparticle
… focus of my thesis is to create a small compact bismuth cNPs to improve contrast labelling in EM. The first chapter provides an overview of current biological imaging and introduces how cloneable nanoparticles have promising application as a contrast marker. It reviews the role of essential …

Electronic Transport in Thermoelectric Bismuth Telluride
… of the electronic transport properties of bismuth telluride nanocomposite materials is presented. The primary transport measurements are electrical conductivity, Seebeck coefficient and Hall effect. An experimental apparatus for measuring Hall effect and electrical conductivity was …

Fabrication and characterisation of bismuth nanowires
Single- and polycrystalline bismuth nanowires were created by electrochemical deposition in ion track-etched polycarbonate membranes. Wires fabricated potentiostatically possess a strong <110> texture which becomes more pronounced for wires deposited at lower overpotentials, at higher temperatures, …

The optical properties of bismuth nanowires
The optical absorption of bismuth nanowires in the energy (wavenumber) range of 600 - 4000cm-1 is studied. Optical reflection and transmission spectra reveal that bismuth nanowires have a large and intense absorption peak as well as several smaller absorption peaks which are not measured in bulk …

Transport studies on proximity-coupled bismuth selenide
Topological insulators form a class of materials that features robust surface states with spin-momentum locking. Coupling topological insulators to superconductivity is expected to facilitate the study of these unique surface states and to potentially yield novel physics with exciting technological …

A Compositional Analysis of Electrodeposited Bismuth-Lead Oxides
… thesis describes a study of the composition of bismuth-lead oxide films that have been electrodeposited from acidic and alkaline tartrate solutions. Inductively Coupled Plasma (ICP) spectrometry was used to determine the bulk composition of the dissolved films as well as the current efficiency …

Superconducting transition temperatures of amorphous bismuth alloy films
… of the critical temperatures T of c amorphous bismuth alloy films containing lead, thallium, and antimony in concentrations up to 13 atomic percent. The results indicate that the shift in T is approximately linear in impurity concentration, as c expected. The derivative of T with respect to …
