CaWO4 and CaMoO4 doped with Dy3+ nanoparticles are obtained via an ethylene glycol route at temperature as low as 130 °C. The XRD results reveal that all the doped samples are well assigned to the scheelite structure of the CaWO4 and the CaMoO4 phase. Upon excitation by ultraviolet radiation, the CaWO4:Dy3+ and CaMoO4…

BiAgSeS shows intrinsically low thermal conductivity in the temperature range from 300 K (∼0.46 W m−1 K−1) to 823 K (∼0.29 W m−1 K−1). Low thermal conductivity coupling with enhanced electrical transport properties achieved through partially substituting S2− by Cl− leads to a high ZT of ∼1.0 at 823 K for BiAgSeS0.97Cl…

Zinc sulfide (ZnS) thin films have been synthesized by spray pyrolysis at 310 °C using an aqueous solution of zinc chloride (ZnCl2) and thioacetamide (TAA). Highly crystalline films were obtained by applying TAA instead of thiourea (TU) as the sulfur source. X-ray diffraction (XRD) analyses show that the films prepare…
