More details: Publisher Summary Most of the lead?��zinc ore contains silver and to a lesser degree, gold. Almost 85\% of the silver production in the world comes from lead?��zinc ores. Silver recovery in a large number of ores, specifically from South America, is emphasized, and some of these circuits were in fact designed to provide the highest possible silver recovery. The reagent scheme used in the treatment of lead?��zinc ores varies considerably and depends on the nature and mineralogy of the ore. In most cases, NaCN?��ZnSO4 depressant system is used with xanthate + dithiophosphate collectors. These reagent schemes are normally employed for treatment of carbonatite and coarse-grained massive sulfides. However, for treatment of disseminated massive sulfide ores, a much more complex reagent scheme is used. The type of reagent schemes also varies by regions, where the application of new technology (i.e., new collectors and depressants) in some regions is very slow and the operating plants rely on the old conventional processes and technology. As for copper?��zinc ores, some of the lead?��zinc ores are treated using bulk flotation followed by lead?��zinc separation.

More details: Abstract Molecular absorption spectrometry (MAS), originally developed in the 1970s, is a technique to determine non-metals in flames and graphite furnaces by monitoring the absorbance of diatomic molecules. Early studies employed low resolution instruments designed for line source atomic absorption, which provided a limited choice of analytical wavelengths, insufficient spectral resolution, and spectral interferences. However, the development of high-resolution continuum source atomic absorption spectrometry (HR-CS AAS) instrumentation has allowed the analysis of challenging samples for non-metals as well as some difficult elements to determine by AAS, such as aluminum and phosphorus. In this review, theory and analytical considerations for \{MAS\} are discussed. The principles and limitations of low resolution \{MAS\} are described, along with its applications. HR-CS \{AAS\} instrumentation is reviewed, emphasizing performance characteristics most relevant for MAS. Applications of flame and HR-CS \{GFMAS\} are reviewed, highlighting the most significant work to date. The paper concludes with an evaluation of the enhanced analytical capabilities provided by HR-CS MAS.

More details: The paper illustrates thermal oxidation of InS and GaS. Both thermodynamic calculations and experimental results suggest the formation of a monophase oxide layer. Such oxidation processes are not typical for the other compounds in the III?��VI system, where the native oxide film is another chalcogen compound with a formula like ( A 2 \{III\} B 3 \{VI\} ) enriched.

More details: The optical and electrical properties of the new [In16]Oh[In5.33-xNa3x?��2.66- 2x]TdS32 (BINS) thin films have been studied. The determination of the optical band gap of films containing different rates of sodium has shown that it linearly increases from 2.10 eV, when the films are pure $\beta$-In2S3, to 2.95 eV, when their sodium content corresponds to x .9 i.e. [In16]Oh[In4.4Na2.7?��0.9]TdS32 compound. This evolution of the band gap has been discussed in terms of In-S bond length and electronegativity of Na and In elements. All the BINS thin films have an n-type electrical conductivity, which decreases from 4 ?� 10-7 to 10-7 S cm-1 when x increases from 0.05 to 0.9, respectively. The electrical conductivity of pure $\beta$-In2S3 has been found around 2 ?� 10-8 S cm-1, which is lower than that of films containing sodium. The variation of the room conductivity of the films is related to the sodium distribution in the crystalline structure. ?? 2002 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.A1. Electrical properties,A1.

More details: Indium selenide thin films have been deposited by vacuum evaporation method on glass substrates at a vacuum level of 10?��5Torr. The annealing temperature effect on optical band gap and the light effect on the electrical properties of films have been investigated. Scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction techniques were used for the investigation of structural properties of films. Optical band gap values of films have been changed from 1.33 to 2.08eV with annealing temperature due to the formation of $\gamma$-In2Se3 phase. The light effect on electrical properties has been investigated and it was found that the current increase with increasing light intensity and increasing rate in illuminated 500W film was greater than in others. There is a very important decreasing in the resistance values of the samples that are annealed at 300 and 400??C because of the improvement of the crystallization.73.61.?��r,78.20.?��e,Electrical properties,Indium selenide,Optical properties,Thin films

More details: Electrical and optical properties of indium tin oxide films (ITO) coated on soda-lime glass substrates have been investigated as a function of substrate temperature. Highly conducting and transparent films have been obtained at a substrate temperature of 350\°C and above. An increase in carrier concentration accompanied by a widening in optical band gap (the Burstein-Moss shift) have been observed with increasing substrate temperature. Enhancement of carrier concentration at higher substrate temperatures may be attributed to the presence of higher valency states of tin (Sn4+) occupying the indium sublattice of indium oxide. Previous reports indicate that ITO/Si heterojunction has extremely good photovoltaic properties.Films--Chemical Vapor Deposition;Electric Properti

More details: Nanocrystalline Cu2O thin films have been synthesized using an activated reactive evaporation technique. Structural and optical characterizations of these films have been carried out using: glancing angle X-ray diffractometer; Fourier transform infrared spectrometer; transmission electron microscope; and UV-VIS-NIR spectrophotometer. The nanocrystallite size in these films was varied by varying deposition parameters. Optical studies show a direct allowed transition and a shift in the optical absorption edge from the bulk value with nanocrystallite size and stoichiometry of these films. These results show that single phase nanocrystalline Cu2O thin films can be synthesized at a relatively low substrate temperature using the activated reactive evaporation technique. These studies indicate that nanocrystallinity results in the stability of cubic Cu2O phase in these films. ?? 2001 Elsevier Science B.V.

More details: During the electromigration of lithium ions from molten LiCl?�?KCl mixtures into FeS three of the phases formed are Li2FeS2 (X phase), Li3Fe2S4 (Z phase), and LiK6Fe24S26Cl (J phase). These phases and the copper-substituted X phase (Li1.33Cu0.67FeS2) were prepared by high-temperature solid-state reactions between the respective metal sulfides, and their electrical conductivities were measured over temperatures ranging from 20 to 550??C. The results show that the X and copper-substituted X phases are semiconductors with conductivities and activation energies in the range of 0.1 to 10 (ohm-cm)?��1 and of 8 to 21 kJ mole?��1, respectively. The Z phase has a conductivity orders of magnitude less, and the J phase decomposes. A change in the slope of the Arrhenius plot occurs at 225??C, probably associated with some residue of the phase change in the FeS component. The electronic structures determined with photoelectron spectroscopy reveal the presence of two valence states for iron in the X, copper-substituted X, and Z phases. The valence bands consist of overlaping Fe(3d), Cu(3d), and S(3p) electronic densities.

More details: High-quality and high-yield 3D flower like indium sulfide (In2S3) nanostructures with cubic structure were synthesized by a wet chemical route, without using any surfactant and organic solvents at 160\&\#xa0;??C for 12\&\#xa0;h, by using InCl3 and 2-aminothiophenol (2-ATP) as starting reagents. The obtained In2S3 with different morphologies and size was characterized by X-ray diffraction pattern (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), and ultraviolet?��visible (UV?��vis) spectroscopy. The effects of reaction parameters, such as temperature, precursor concentration and reaction time on the morphology, and particle size of products were investigated. Our experimental results showed that temperature and time reaction played key roles in the final morphology of In2S3. The morphology of In2S3 structures could be changed from one-dimensional (1D) structures to three-dimensional (3D) structures by increasing reaction time to 24\&\#xa0;h. In the present study the optical properties 3D In2S3 structures were investigated. 3D structure,Hydrothermal,Indium sulfide,Nanostructure,Semiconductor
