(author)The formation of Fe-carbide phases is relevant to the synthesis of Fischer-Tropsch synthesis catalysts. We investigated the carburization of Raney Fe as a model catalyst using spectroscopic and temperature-programmed techniques. IR spectroscopy shows that CO dissociation already occurs at −150 °C, while C diffusion into metallic Fe requires...journal article 2021

(author)In the field of solid-state luminescence, Cu<sup>2+</sup> has long been widely acknowledged for its capacity to emit infrared light. However, the occurrence of visible emission from Cu<sup>2+</sup> ions had been infrequently observed and reported. In this study, we made an intriguing discovery by examining the behavior of Cu<sup>2+</sup>...journal article 2024

Li, Z. (author), Chen, Y. (author), Provis, John L. (author), Cizer, Özlem (author), Ye, G. (author)This paper provides a critical review on autogenous shrinkage of alkali-activated slag (AAS). It is reported that AAS paste, mortar, and concrete generally show larger autogenous shrinkage than Portland cement (PC) counterparts. Self-desiccation is the main driving force of the autogenous shrinkage of hardened AAS, but other mechanisms also...review 2023
