A general introduction of the upconversion process, the theoretical basis of plasmonic enhancement, the theoretical requirements in regard to NP architecture for plasmon enhanced UC will be outlined. The first proof-of-concept measurements show the difficulty in realization the theoretical measurement parameters in laboratory conditions and underline the need for shifting the experiments to single particle level.“ T2 - Gruppenseminar der Nanooptik an der HU Berlin, Prof. Benson, Institut für Physik, Raum 1‘404 CY - Berlin, Germany DA - 09.05.2017 KW - Upconversion KW - Pplasmon enhancement KW - Core-shell nanoparticles KW - Silca-metal nanoparticles PY - 2017 AN - OPUS4-50698 LA - eng AD - Bundesanstalt fuer Materialforschung und -pruefung (BAM), Berlin, Germany ER - TY - CONF A1 - Rosner, M. T1 - Intercomparison of delta26Mg Values in Mg Isotope RMs and Standards N2 - Accurate measurements of stable isotope abundance ratio variations are often reported using artifact based delta-scales, which rely on suitable isotopic reference materials (iRM) for their realization. For example, variations in the 26Mg/24Mg isotope abundance ratio in natural systems are typically reported as delta26Mg values that represents the relative difference between the 26Mg/24Mg ratio measured in a sample relative to its measurement preferably in an iRM. In the past, such delta26Mg measurements were referenced to NIST SRM 980, the initial zero of the delta26Mg scale. With the development of MC-ICPMS, the detection of small but measurable isotopic differences in different chips of SRM 980 became apparent. It was then replaced by a Mg solution (DSM3), the new zero of the delta26Mg scale. A potential replacement iRM for DSM3 has been developed, ERM-AE143. This iRM has also been measured for its absolute isotope amount ratios1,2 making it traceable to the SI. The results of an delta26Mg intercomparison experiment include the Mg iRMs SRM 980, IRMM-009, ERM-AE143, AE144, AE145 standards DSM3 and Cambridge-1. The intercomparison involved 5 expert laboratories, consisting of 3 national metrological institutes (BAM, NIST, PTB) and 2 scientific research laboratories (GFZ Potsdam, UBremen). The iRMs were measured relative to AE143 and cover a range of ≈5 ‰ in delta26Mg. IRMM-009 has the lowest delta26Mg value while DSM3 has the highest, spanning a range in values that covers natural Mg isotope variations. The 2SD reproducibilities of the individual values from the different laboratories range from 0.02 to 0.26 ‰. The mean delta26Mg values, calculated from the laboratory means however show 2SD reproducibilities varing between 0.025 and 0.093 ‰. Propagated measurement uncertainties suggest a standard uncertainty of about 0.1‰ for delta26Mg determinations. 1 JAAS, 2015, 31,179; 2JAAS, 2016, 31, 1440 T2 - Goldschmidt Conference 2017 CY - Paris, France DA - 13.08.2017 KW - Magnesium delta scale KW - Isotope reference material KW - Intercalibration PY - 2017 AN - OPUS4-43995 LA - eng AD - Bundesanstalt fuer Materialforschung und -pruefung (BAM), Berlin, Germany ER - TY - CONF A1 - Zerbst, Uwe T1 - Damage development and damage tolerance of structures manufactured by selective laser melting N2 - The additive manufacturing technology of Selective Laser Melting (SLM) experiences a rapid development within an increasing marked of quite different application fields. The properties of SLM materials and structures are influenced by a number of tech-nological parameters such as the metal powder (particle size, homogeneity, cleanliness), the laser tool (power, beam diameter, pulse lengths), the scanning operation (speed, sequence and orientation of melting paths), parameters of the over-all equipment (design and preheating of the base plate, currents and turbulence in the protective gas atmosphere) and, last not least, the hatching strategy including the build-up direction of the structure with respect to the loading direction of the component. For the perspective use of SLM structures as load carrying, safety-relevant components the knowledge of their mechanical properties is necessary. It is essential to understand these in the context of the manufacturing-related features and at the back-ground of the basic characteristics of metallic materials: crystal lattice, microstructure and material defects. The paper provides an overview on factors which affect the mechanical parameters stiffness, strength, ductility, toughness, fatigue crack propagation and fatigue strength in the context of selective laser melting.

The beamline BAMline at BESSY II, which is operated by the Federal Institute for Materials Research and Testing, can provide a monochromatized beam in a photon energy range from 5 keV up to 80 keV with a bandwidth of 2%. Together with the microtomography setup, this enables differential tomography sensitive to any element with N >= 24 (Cr) by using an appropriate K- or L-edge in this range. Here, absorption edge tomography at the Yttrium edge is employed to perform a non-destructive 3D characterization of the microstructure of a high strength Mg-Y-Zn alloy. The long period stacking ordered (LPSO) phase which forms fibres in this material was extracted based on the Yttrium content and the fibre length distribution was analysed.

Besides saving weight and therefore transportation costs, new complex geometries that depart from common cylindrical shapes of steel tanks can be manufactured. For transportation of dangerous goods, fire and explosion safety must be maintained to prevent accidents with serious consequences. In this work the fire behavior of lightweight tanks made from glass fiber reinforced plastics (GFRP) with complex geometries is investigated. Pretests on intermediate scale GFRP plates are conducted to identify suitable fire protection systems and surface treatments for composite tanks. The fire resistance is shown to be improved by addition of fire protective coatings and integrated layers. Finally, a complex rectangular GFRP tank with a holding capacity of 1100 liters is fire protected with an intumescent fire coating. The tank is filled up to 80 % with water and burned under an engulfing fully developed fire. It was shown that the intumescent layer could expand before the decomposition of the resin occurred. Furthermore, the adhesion between tank surface and coating was maintained. The structure could withstand a fire for more than 20 min.

These islands can serve as micro-sized precursors for indium compounds such as copper-indium-gallium-diselenide (CIGSe) used in photovoltaics. Molybdenum is the standard back contact material of CIGSe solar cells. Femtosecond laser ablation of glass and a subsequent deposition of a molybdenum film or direct laser processing of the molybdenum film both allow the preferential nucleation and growth of indium islands at the predefined locations in a following indium-based physical vapor deposition (PVD) process. A proper choice of laser and deposition parameters ensures the controlled growth of indium islands exclusively at the laser ablated spots. Based on a statistical analysis, these results are compared to the non-structured molybdenum surface, leading to randomly grown indium islands after PVD. T2 - 10.

The vast majority of OCP have been released directly in the environment as agricultural insecticides but they have been also used as byproducts for different applications e.g. wood preserver. PCB have been widely used as additives in industrial applications where chemical stability has been required. OCP and PCB are persistent, bioaccumulating and prone to long-range atmosheric transport and deposition. They are ubiquitous in the environment (water, soil, sediment and waste) and their presence is regularly monitored and controlled. At present determination of OCP and PCB is carried out in these matrices in most of the routine laboratories following the preceding steps for sampling, pre-treatment, extraction, clean-up by measurement of specific OCP and PCB by means of gas chromatography in combination with mass spectrometric detection (GC-MS) or gas chromatography with electron capture detector (GC-ECD). Considered the different matrices and possible interfering compounds, this draft International Standard does not contain one single possible way of working. Several choices are possible, in particular relating to clean-up. Detection with both Mass Spectrometry and Electron Capture is possible. Three different extraction procedures and nine clean-up procedures are described. The use of internal and injection standards is described in order to have an internal check on choice of the extraction and clean-up procedure.

Since some of these PAH compounds are carcinogenic or mutagenic, their presence in the environment (air, water, soil, sediment and waste) are regularly monitored and controlled. At present determination of PAH are carried out in these matrices in most of the routine laboratories following the preceding steps for sampling, pre-treatment, extraction, clean up by measurement of specific PAH by means of Gas chromatography in combination with mass spectrometric detection(GC-MS) or by HPLC in combination with UV-DAD- or Fluorescence-detection(HPLC-UV-DAD/FLD). At present there two standards for the determination of PAH in soil, sludge and biowaste and in waste valid. The goal is the development of only one standard for solid materials.

The Advantages of fast reactions in high purity and yield face a lack of understanding the underlying mechanism. Therefore, in situ setups to study mechanochemical reactions have been established. Herein, we present an in situ investigation of the mechanochemical cocrystal formation of pyrazinamide (PZA) with pimelic acid (PM) using synchrotron XRD. Two new polymorphs of PZA:PM (1:1) were synthesized by milling the starting materials in milling jars of different materials. While Form I is only obtained using a steel jar, Form II can be obtained purely in jars made of Perspex. In situ XRD experiments reveal a direct formation of Form II in Perspex and an intermediate formation of Form II in steel jars converting to Form I upon further grinding. Heating experiments and DFT calculations predict that Form II is the thermodynamically more stable polymorph. Therefore, the reaction progress in the steel jar contradicts Ostwald’s rules of stages as the more stable Form II converts into the metastable Form I. Hence, mechanochemistry offers the possibility to synthesize new materials that cannot be obtained using conventional methods.
