T2 –, 17th International Conference on Aluminium Alloys (ICAA), October 26-29, 2020 , 09003 (2020). http://doi.org/10.1051/MATECCONF/202032609003
Abstract: Precipitation is accompanied by the formation and migration of heterophase interfaces. Using the combined approach of advanced imaging and atomistic simulations, we studied the precipitate-matrix interfaces in various aluminium alloy systems, aiming to resolve their detailed atomic structures and illuminate their role in phase transformations.

“Modeling the CO2 dissociation in pulsed atmospheric-pressure discharge”. Kolev S, Paunska T, Trenchev G, Bogaerts A, Technologies , 012007 (2020). http://doi.org/10.1088/1742-6596/1492/1/012007
Abstract: CO2 dissociation and its subsequent conversion into added-value chemicals is a promising strategy for recycling CO2 gas into reusable products. One of the possible methods is direct plasma-induced dissociation. In this work we study the efficiency of CO2 dissociation in pulsed atmospheric-pressure gas discharge between two conducting electrodes by a 0-D numerical plasma model. The purpose of the study is to provide results on the optimal conditions of CO2 conversion with respect to the energy efficiency and dissociation by varying the maximum power density value and the pulse length. The power density is directly related to the discharge current and the reduced electric field in the discharge. We consider pulse lengths in the range from hundreds of nanosecond up to milliseconds. The results obtained show that the dissociation degree and energy efficiency are sensitive to the pulse length (duration) and the power density, so that a considerable improvement of the discharge performance can be achieved by fine-tuning these parameters. The study is intended to provide guidance in designing an experimental set-up and a power supply with the characteristics necessary to achieve optimal conversion.

“Role of graphene inter layer on the formation of the MoS2 –, CZTS interface during growth”. Vishwakarma M, Thota N, Karakulina O, Hadermann J, Mehta BR, (icc-2017) (2018). http://doi.org/10.1063/1.5033000
Abstract: The growth of MoS2 layer near the Mo/CZTS interface during sulphurization process can have an impact on back contact cell parameters (series resistance and fill factor) depending upon the thickness or quality of MoS2. This study reports the dependence of the thickness of interfacial MoS2 layer on the growth of graphene at the interface between molybdenum back contact and deposited CZTS layer. The graphene layer reduces the accumulation of Zn/ZnS, Sn/SnO2 and formation of pores near the MoS2-CZTS interface. The use of graphene as interface layer can be potentially useful for improving the quality of Mo/MoS2/CZTS interface.

“A 2D model of a gliding arc discharge for CO2conversion”. Paunska T, Trenchev G, Bogaerts A, Kolev S, AIP conference proceedings
T2 –, 10th Jubilee Conference of the Balkan-Physical-Union (BPU), AUG 26-30, 2018, Sofia, BULGARIA (2019). http://doi.org/10.1063/1.5091186
Abstract: The study presents a 2D fluid plasma model of a gliding arc discharge for dissociation of CO2 which allows its subsequent conversion into value-added chemicals. The model is based on the balance equations of charged and neutral particles, the electron energy balance equation, the gas thermal balance equation and the current continuity equation. By choosing the modeling domain to be the plane perpendicular to the arc current, the numerical calculations are significantly simplified. Thus, the model allows us to explore the influence of the gas instabilities (turbulences) on the energy efficiency of CO2 conversion. This paper presents results for plasma parameters at different values of the effective turbulent thermal conductivity leading to enhanced energy transport.

“Simulation of poly-capillary lenses for coherent and partially coherent x-rays”. Vincze L, Kukhlevsky SV, Janssens K, Proceedings of the Society of Photo-optical Instrumentation Engineers
T2 –, Conference on Advances in Computational Methods for X-Ray and Neutron, Optics, AUG 03-05, 2004, Denver, CO , 81 (2004). http://doi.org/10.1117/12.560740
Abstract: The intensity distributions of the coherent and partially coherent x-rays passed through a poly-capillary lens have been computed at the focal plane. The computations showed that at the appropriate experimental conditions the interference phenomenon does affect the intensity distribution. In the case of the coherent input radiation with the photon energy of 0.1 keV, the interference fringes were observed, while the non-coherent x-ray radiation produced no interference-like intensity distributions.

“Composition and state of alteration of 18th century glass from the Cistercian nunnery of Clairefontaine (Belgium)”. Herremans D, Cagno S, Vincke A, de Clercq W, Janssens K, Proceedings of the Society of Photo-optical Instrumentation Engineers
T2 –, Conference on Integrated Approaches to the Study of Historical Glass, (IASHG), APR 16-17, 2012, Brussels, BELGIUM , 842206 (2012). http://doi.org/10.1117/12.975247
Abstract: An extended set of 18th century glass vessels was analyzed by means of SEM-EDX (major and minor element composition) The fragmented archaeological objects were recovered from a latrine belonging to the early 18th century building phase of the nunnery of Clairefontaine, near Arlon (B). On the basis of typology and decoration, the major part of the vessels could be dated around the middle of the 18th century. Variety in color and weathering of the glass suggest differences in glassmaking recipes and in the composition and origin of raw materials. The results of the analysis show how two main compositional groups constitute about 90% of the analyzed glass set, and these are constituted by potash glass (transparent beakers) and high lime low alkali glass (green bottles). Next to these, a few potash-lime and soda glasses are also found. The type of alteration has also a clear relation with the original glass composition.

“Composition of Facon de Venise glass from early 17th century London in comparison with luxury glass of the same age”. Cagno S, de Raedt I, Jeffries T, Janssens K, Proceedings of the Society of Photo-optical Instrumentation Engineers
T2 –, Conference on Integrated Approaches to the Study of Historical Glass, (IASHG), APR 16-17, 2012, Brussels, BELGIUM , 842205 (2012). http://doi.org/10.1117/12.975212
Abstract: SEM-EDX and LA-ICP-MS analyses were performed on a set of early 17th century London glass fragments. The samples originate from two archaeological sites (Aldgate and Old Broad Street) where glass workshops were active in this period. The great majority of the samples are made of soda glass. Two distinct compositional groups are observed, each typical of one site of provenance. The samples originating from the Old Broad Street excavation feature a silica-soda-lime composition, with a moderate amount of potash. The samples from Aldgate are richer in potassium and feature higher amounts of trace elements such as Rb, Zr and Cu. The distinction between the two groups stems from different flux and silica sources used for glassmaking. A comparison with different European glass compositions of that time reveals no resemblance with genuine Venetian production, yet the composition of the Old Broad Street glass shows a close similarity to that of fragments produced 'a la facon de Venise' in Antwerp at the end of the 16th century. This coincides with historical sources attesting the arrival of glassworkers from the Low Countries in England and suggests that a transfer of technology took place near the turn of the century.

“Luminescence of fixed site Ag nanoclusters in a simple oxyfluoride glass host and plasmon absorption of amorphous Ag nanoparticles in a complex oxyfluoride glass host”. Shestakov MV, Meledina M, Turner S, Baekelant W, Verellen N, Chen X, Hofkens J, Van Tendeloo G, Moshchalkov VV, Proceedings of the Society of Photo-optical Instrumentation Engineers

Abstract: Ag nanocluster-doped glasses have been prepared by a conventional melt-quenching method. The effect of melt temperature and dwell time on the formation of Ag nanoclusters and Ag nanoparticles in simple host oxyfluoride glasses has been studied. The increase of melt temperature and dwell time results in the dissolution of Ag nanoparticles and substantial red-shift of absorption and photoluminescence spectra of the prepared glasses. The quantum yield of the glasses is similar to 5% and does not depend on melt temperature and dwell time. The prepared glasses may be used as red phosphors or down-conversion layers for solar-cells.
