ZnO doped with Gallium (Ga3+) demonstrates better crystalline nature and conductivity increases. Latent defect states are suppressed. However, due to the larger charge of Ga3+ oxygen interstitials are generated which control the sensing speed. The conductance increases as a consequence of reduced defect states, especi…

Luminescent defect-centers in hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) have emerged as a promising 2D-source of single photon emitters (SPEs) due to their high brightness and robust operation at room temperature. The ability to create such emitters with well-defined optical properties is a cornerstone towards their integration i…

We present a simplified, rapid, and accurate method for the measurement of the thermoelectric Thomson coefficient by the dynamical heating of a suspended wire by an alternating current. By applying a temperature gradient across the wire, we find that the response at the second harmonic of the excitation frequency is d…

Prostate cancer (PCa) has remarkably emerged as a prominent disease in the face of the male population. Conventional treatments like prostatectomy or radiation can be curative only if PCa is diagnosed at an early stage. In the field of targeted therapy, a bevy of novel therapeutic approaches have left a landmark in PC…

Fe/Beta catalysts were used for the selective catalytic reduction of nitric oxide with propylene (C3H6-SCR) under lean-burn conditions, which were prepared by liquid ion-exchange (LIE), solid-state ion-exchange (SIE), and incipient wet-impregnation (IWI) methods. The iron species on Fe/Beta were characterized and iden…

Abstract The ZrBeSi type is a superstructure variant of the aristotype AlB 2 with an ordering of the beryllium and silicon atoms on the boron network. Every other layer of Be 3 Si 3 hexagons is rotated by 60°, leading to an ABAB stacking sequence and a sandwich-like coordination of zirconium by two Be 3 Si 3 hexagons.…

One of the options currently taken into account for the realization of the first DEMO reactor is the “water-cooled lanket”. This option implies an irradiation temperature for the blanket material in the range of 280–350 °C. Therefore, in light of the under irradiation behaviour of EUROFER, namely of the DBTT shift tow…
