This book illustrates interfacial properties, preparation, characterization, devices, and
applications from the standpoint of nano-interfacial tailoring. Since the primary focus of the …

In the biomedical fields of bone regenerative therapy, the immobilization of proteins on the
bioceramic particles to maintain their highly ordered structures is significantly important. In …

A fase estável da sílica (SiO2) à temperatura ambiente, conhecida como quartzo-α, é um
dos minerais mais abundantes da crosta terrestre, cerca de 12%(Frondel, 1962). Ela ocorre …

We have here presented methods to study interactions of vapors and particles in systems
involving simultaneous deposition of vapors and particles. Besides estimating vapor and …

Nowadays solid state chemists have the possibility of work with low temperature strategies
to obtain solid state materials with appropriate physical and chemical properties for useful …

The vapor-phase axial deposition process is currently one of the most advantageous
methods to produce preforms for optical fibers, due to its high efficiency and reduced …

In this research, we studied the influence of the process conditions through the H2/O2 ratio
and the GeO2 content, on the formation of germanium oxygen deficient centers and …

This study aimed the synthesis of titania–doped silica glasses with controlled TiO2
concentrations and distribution profiles through the synergy between Vapor-Phase Axial …

The refractive index profile of germanium doped preforms for optical fibers is determined by
the radial distribution of germanium concentration. Knowing that there is a correlation …
