摘要:
Processes and systems for carbon ion implantation include utilizing phosphorous trifluoride (PF3) as a co-gas with carbon oxide gas, and in some embodiments, in combination with the lanthanated tungsten alloy ion source components advantageously results in minimal oxidation of the cathode and cathode shield. Moreover, acceptable levels of carbon deposits on the arc chamber internal components have been observed as well as marked reductions in the halogen cycle, i.e., WFx formation.

A starting material powder, which contains a rare earth oxide that is composed of terbium oxide and at least one other rare earth oxide selected from among yttrium oxide, scandium oxide and oxides of lanthanide rare earth elements (excluding terbium) and a sintering assistant that is formed of an oxide of at least one element selected from among group 2 elements and group 4 elements, is produced by having (a) terbium ions, (b) ions of at least one other rare earth element selected from among yttrium ions, scandium ions and lanthanide rare earth ions (excluding terbium ions) and (c) ions of at least one element selected from among group 2 elements and group 4 elements coprecipitate in an aqueous solution containing the components (a)-(c), then filtering and separating the coprecipitate, and subjecting the separated coprecipitate to thermal dehydration.

A powder comprising rare earth element fluoride particles having an aspect ratio of up to 2, an average particle size of 10-100 μm, a bulk density of 0.8-1.5 g/cm3, and a carbon content of 0.1-0.5 wt % is amenable to atmospheric plasma spraying. An article obtained by spraying the rare earth fluoride spray powder to a substrate undergoes few partial color changes and performs well even when used in a halogen gas plasma.

An object of the present invention is to provide a method for separating and refining scandium capable of efficiently separating and refining the scandium from a solution containing the scandium, with improved stripping, while securing separability (selectivity) of the scandium from impurity elements. The method of the present invention involves mixing a solution containing the scandium with an organic solvent containing a trioctylphosphine oxide to extract the scandium into the organic solvent; and mixing the organic solvent with a stripping starting solution containing any one or more of water, hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, and oxalic acid to strip the scandium from the organic solvent.

Methods for removing, reducing or treating the trace metal contaminants and the smaller fine sized cerium oxide particles from cerium oxide particles, cerium oxide slurry or chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) compositions for Shallow Trench Isolation (STI) process are applied. The treated chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) compositions, or the CMP polishing compositions prepared by using the treated cerium oxide particles or the treated cerium oxide slurry are used to polish substrate that contains at lease a surface comprising silicon dioxide film for STI (Shallow trench isolation) processing and applications. The reduced nano-sized particle related defects have been observed due to the reduced trace metal ion contaminants and reduced very smaller fine cerium oxide particles in the Shallow Trench Isolation (STI) CMP polishing.

Processes described include reacting a fresh or spent catalyst, or sorbent, with a solution containing an extracting agent (such as an acid or a base). Preferably, the catalyst contains both alumina and a molecular sieve (or a sorbent), and the reaction is performed under relatively mild conditions such that the majority of the base material does not dissolve into the solution. Thus, the catalyst can be re-used, and in certain instances the catalyst performance even improves, with or without re-incorporating certain of the metals back into the catalyst. Additionally, metals contained in the catalyst, such as Na, Mg, Al, P, S, Cl, K, Ca, V, Fe, Ni, Cu, Zn, Sr, Zn Sb, Ba, La, Ce, Pr, Nd, Pb, or their equivalent oxides, can be removed from the catalyst. Some of the metals that are removed are relatively valuable (such as the rare earth elements of La, Ce, Pr and Nd).

摘要:
An alteration of the traditional zinc/zinc-amalgam reduction procedure which eliminates both the hazardous mercury and dangerous hydrogen gas generation. In order to avoid the presence of water and hydrated protons in the working solution, which can oxidize Eu2+ and cause hydrogen gas production, a process utilizing methanol as the process solvent is described. While methanol presents some flammability hazard in a radiological hot cell, it can be better managed and is less of a flammability hazard than hydrogen gas generation.
