When the dc conductivities of various pure KC1 crystals were
compared it was found that crystals grown under an HC1 atmosphere,
from salt purified by ion exchange, exhibited lower knee temperatures
than any of the crystals studied. These knee temperatures
were found to be approximately 350°C. From this the total...
A survey of the methods of purification of KC1, for use in
preparing single crystals by growth from the melt, was made. Two
methods, fractional recrystallization and ion exchange, were used.
The purity of the salt and crystals grown from the same salt were
compared with the findings of other...
The hydroxide ion as a substitutional defect in KC1 can be photo-dissociated
at liquid nitrogen temperature by ultraviolet light. The
photochemistry of this system was investigated by EPR and optical absorption
methods. Theoretical calculations were also performed in an
investigation of the KC1:OH system.
The bleaching behavior of photochemically colored...

The incorporation of europium and dysprosium in potassium
chloride crystals was investigated. The crystals were prepared by
the Kyropoulos method from melts containing the rare-earth chlorides.
The concentration of these rare-earth ions in the crystals was determined
by neutron-activation analysis. The distribution coefficient of
europium and dysprosium between the molten...
Vanadium pentoxide single crystals were grown from the melt.
These crystals were made the cathode in an electrolytic cell and the
polarization and recovery of the electrode were studied under a
variety of experimental conditions.
A study of the electrode potential versus that of the standard
hydrogen electrode as a...
