The open-circuit voltage was increased by CuBr2 addition to the CH3NH3PbI3ÀdCld precursor solution. The series resistance was decreased by simultaneous addition of CuBr2 and RbI, which increased the external quantum efficiencies in the range of 300–500 nm, and the short-circuit current density. The energy gap of the perovskite crystal increased through CuBr2 addition, which we also confirmed by first-principles calculations.

RANJITH PRASAD CRYSTAL STRUCTURE CRYSTALLINE AND NON-CRYSTALLINE MATERIALS . Introduction We see a lot of materials around us on the earth. If we study them , we found few of them having regularity in their structure . These types of materials are crystalline materials or solids. A crystalline material is one in which the atoms are situated in a repeating or periodic array over large atomic distances; that is, long-range order exists, such that upon solidification, the atoms will position themselves in a repetitive three-dimensional pattern, in which each atom is bonded to its nearest-neighbor atoms. X-ray diffraction photograph [or Laue photograph for a single crystal of magnesium. Crystalline solids have well-defined edges and faces, diffract x-rays, and tend to have sharp melting points. What is meant by Crystallography and why to study the structure of crystalline solids? Crystallography is the experimental science of determining the arrangement of atoms in the crystalline solids. The properties of some materials are directly related to their crystal structures. For example, pure and undeformed magnesium and beryllium, having one crystal structure, are much more brittle (i.e., fracture at lower degrees of deformation) than pure and undeformed metals such as gold and silver that have yet another crystal structure. Furthermore, significant property differences exist between crystalline and non-crystalline materials having the same composition. For example, non-crystalline ceramics and polymers normally are optically transparent; the same materials in crystalline (or semi-crystalline) forms tend to be opaque or, at best, translucent.

  • Eijun OHTA* the Toyoha Mine Is Located 40 Km South
    MINING GEOLOGY,39(6),355•`372,1989 Occurrence and Chemistry of Indium-containing Minerals from the Toyoha Mine, Hokkaido, Japan Eijun OHTA* Abstract: Toyoha lead-zinc-silver vein-type deposit in Hokkaido, Japan produces an important amount of indium as well as tin and copper. Bismuth, tungsten, antimony, arsenic, and cobalt are minor but common metals. Indium minerals recognized are; unnamed Zn-In mineral (hereafter abbreviated as ZI) whose composition is at the midst of sphalerite and roquesite, unnamed Ag-In mineral (AI) of AglnS2 composition, roquesite (RQ) and sakuraiite. Observed maximum weight percentages of indium in chalcopyrite, kesterite (KS) and stannite are 1.0, 1.86 and 20.0, respectively. Indium concentration in sphalerite ranges from O.On to a few weight percent in most case, but exceeds ten weight percent at some points. Detailed EPMA analyses have revealed that such high concentration is attributed to a continuous solid solution between sphalerite (SP) and ZI. Continuous solid solutions between RQ90ZI10 and RQ37ZI69, and between KS100ZI0 and KS30ZI70 are also detected. These solid solutions are attributed to coupled substitutions of 2(Zn, Fe) for CuIn, and of (Zn, Fe)In for CuSn. Other substitutions found between chalcopyrite and stannite and between stannite/kesterite and roquesite are of (Fe+2, Zn)Sn for 2Fe+3 and of (Fe+2, Zn)Sn for 2In respectively. Economically most important indium carriers in Toyoha are ZI and indium-bearing sphalerite. Next to sphalerite are kesterite, stannite and the anisotropic chalcopyrite. The occurrence of these minerals indicates that these minerals have been formed by pulsatile mineralization whose peak temperatures were 50 to 100•Ž higher than the hitherto estimated maximum formation temperature, about 300•Ž, of the deposit.

  • Review of Metallic Structure
    Phase Diagrams—Understanding the Basics Copyright © 2012 ASM International® F.C. Campbell, editor All rights reserved www.asminternational.org APPENDIX A Review of Metallic Structure THE WORD METAL, derived from the Greek metallon, is believed to have originated as a verb meaning to seek, search after, or inquire about. Today, a metal is defined as any element that tends to lose electrons from the outer shells of its atoms. The resulting positive ions are held together in crystalline structure by the cloud of these free electrons in what is known as the metallic bond. The metallic bond yields three physical characteris- tics typical of solid metals: (1) metals are good conductors of electricity, (2) metals are good conductors of heat, and (3) metals have a lustrous appearance. In addition, most metals are malleable, ductile, and generally denser than other elemental substances. Those elements that do not display the characteristics of the metallic elements are called nonmetals. However, there are some elements that behave as metals under some circumstances and as nonmetals under different circumstances. These are now called semimetals, but have also been called metalloids, meaning like metals. The boundaries separating the regions in the periodic table covered by the different classes of elements are not distinct, except that nonmetals never form positive ions. A simplified periodic table is shown in Fig. A.1, high- lighting the elements that are currently considered to be metals. A.1 Periodic Table In the periodic table, it is the number of electrons in the outer shell that affects the properties of the elements the most.
