In this study we investigate the electronic transport, the optical properties, and photocurrent in two-dimensional arrays of silicon nanocrystals (Si NCs) embedded in silicon dioxide, grown on quartz and having sizes in the range between less than 2 and 20 nm. Electronic transport is determined by the collective effec…

A fast preparation process for high-quality as-grown ZnO nanorods by electrodeposition from an aqueous solution of Zn(NO 3 ) 2 and NH 4 NO 3 at 75 °C was established. The vertical growth rate of the ZnO nanorods was enhanced with an increase in the NH 4 NO 3 concentration. The NH 3 adsorbed on the ZnO nanorods’ surfac…

Aluminum-doped ZnO (ZnO:Al, AZO) thin films were prepared on glass substrates by dc reactive magnetron sputtering from a Zn–Al alloy target at room temperature. The effects of the Ar-to-O2 partial pressure ratios on the structural, electrical, and optical properties of AZO films were studied in detail. AZO films grown…

Kinetic analysis including mass-transfer processes of the title reaction was carried out on the basis of the effects of the solution agitation rate, reaction time, and H 2 and O 2 partial pressures. The suggested equations were found to be in sufficient agreement with the experimental values. The reactions were then s…

Abstract Adding conductive carbon fillers to thermoplastic polymers increases the resulting composite's electrical conductivity. Carbon black (CB) is very effective at increasing composite electrical conductivity at low loading levels. In this study, varying amounts (2 to 10 wt %) CB were added to polycarbonate (PC) a…

Abstract Recently, various bio‐medical applications of nanoporous silicon (np‐Si) have been suggested. This work investigates the biocompatibility of np‐Si particles taking into account hazardous residua confined in the pores after preparation. The emphasis is on the potential application of such particles as oxygen p…

We study the electronic properties of electrons in flat and curved zigzag graphene nanoribbons using a tight-binding model within the Slater Koster approximation, including spin-orbit interaction. We find that a constant curvature across the ribbon dramatically enhances the action of the spin-orbit term, strongly infl…

An optical method was proposed, based on the ratio of color difference, to identify the thickness of graphene on dielectric/Si substrates. The effect of light source on the color difference of graphene sheets has been investigated. The result shows that for the number of graphene layers N ≤ 10, the ratio between the c…

A simple, high throughput fractionation procedure for aqueous/SDS (sodium dodecyl sulfate) suspensions of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) is presented, which yields thin bundles of semiconducting-SWNTs with small chiral angles. To demonstrate this we show the photoluminescence signatures of nanotube suspensions…

Plane-wave density functional theory was used to study the properties of oxygen vacancies and interstitials, with different charge states, in MgO. The calculated properties were the relaxed configurations, the Frenkel defect formation energies and the energies of the migration barriers, and all properties were found t…
