TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of cerium doping on the dielectric properties of hafnium dioxide was reported, and thin films of thin cerium-doped HaF oxide Cex-Hf1−xO2 (x=0.10,0.34) were grown by liquid injection atomic layer deposition and all films were transformed from an amorphous state into stabilized cubic or tetragonal phase.

TL;DR: The synthesis of a series of homoleptic and heteroleptic Ce(IV) complexes with donor-functionalized alkoxide ligands, found to be excellent precursors for liquid-injection MOCVD of CeO(2), depositing high purity thin films with very low carbon contamination.

TL;DR: In this article, the crystal structures of the new complexes 2 and 3 have been determined and they are shown to be mononuclear and isostructural to complex 1, containing a chelating [Cp2CMe2] ligand leading to a pseudo-four-coordinate distorted tetrahedral geometry around the central Zr or Hf atom, in agreement with structures from Density Functional Theory.

TL;DR: In this article, γ-Al2O3 crystalline nanoparticles (NPs) were produced by the arc-discharge in water method by simultaneously recording the voltage and current waveforms, emitted light intensity and time-resolved optical emission spectra and snapshots of the discharge.
