Learning from the past: rare ε-Fe2O3 in the ancient black-glazed Jian (Tenmoku) wares.
Catherine Dejoie,Catherine Dejoie,Philippe Sciau,Weidong Li,Laure Noé,Apurva Mehta,Kai Chen,Kai Chen,Hongjie Luo,Martin Kunz,Nobumichi Tamura,Zhi Liu,Zhi Liu +12 more
TL;DR: The glaze surface of HF and OS samples is investigated using a variety of characterization methods to identify the presence of ε-Fe2O3, a rare metastable polymorph of Fe2 O3 with unique magnetic properties, in both HF andOS samples.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The ID21 beamline (European Synchrotron Radiation facility, France) is a multi-analytical platform combining X-ray and infrared micro-probes, for characterization of elements, species, molecular groups and crystalline structures in complex materials.
Journal ArticleDOI
Full-field XANES analysis of Roman ceramics to estimate firing conditions—A novel probe to study hierarchical heterogeneous materials
Florian Meirer,Yijin Liu,Emeline Pouyet,Barbara Fayard,Marine Cotte,Corinne Sanchez,Joy C. Andrews,Apurva Mehta,Philippe Sciau +8 more
TL;DR: In this article, Roman black gloss ceramics from two different locations and separated by 50-80 years were investigated by X-ray absorption near edge structure analysis in full field hard Xray transmission microscopes.
Book ChapterDOI
Nanoparticles in Ancient Materials: The Metallic Lustre Decorations of Medieval Ceramics
TL;DR: The use of metallic particles for colouring glass spread during the Roman period as discussed by the authors, and most of the red tesserae used in Roman mosaics were made of glass containing a dispersion of copper nanocrystals.
