As one of promising metal gate materials, PVD TiN has widely been studied for conventional bulk-planar CMOS devices due to its high purity [1, 2]. However, there have been no systematical studies ...

Modern fertilizer manufacturing uses the Haber-Bosch and Ostwald processes to fix aerial nitrogen as ammonia, then oxidize ...

A study led by the UAB and the CREAF shows that the loss of nitrogen from Arctic soil not only deprives plants of a vital ...

Astronomers uncover how massive stars form by tracking interstellar ammonia. Using the U.S. National Science Foundation ...

A team of scientists from the Institute of Applied Ecology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has developed a novel method to ...

The threshold voltage shift (AVth) in amorphous InZnSnO thin-film transistors (a-IZTO TFTs) during negative gate-bias stress (NGBS) is significantly improved by nitrogen doping. Numerous N-In bonds ...

Clathrate hydrates of methane−ethane mixed gases have two crystal structures depending on their composition. To study their compositions and cage occupancies and how their structure is determined, we ...

Nitrogen finally joins the elite tier of elements like carbon that can form neutral allotropes—different structural forms of a single chemical element. Researchers from Justus Liebig University, ...

The chlorosulfanyl thiocyanate molecule, ClSSCN, was generated in the gas phase through heterogeneous reaction of SCl2 on the surface of finely powdered AgSCN for the first time. The reaction products ...

The state of Alabama has executed Gregory Hunt by nitrogen hypoxia for the 1988 murder of Karen Lane. A doctor pronounced Hunt to dead at 6:26 p.m. June 10. His death marked Alabama's third ...
