The transparent conducting ZnO thin films were deposited on glass substrate by ultrasonic spray technique. The optical, electrical and structural properties of the ZnO thin films were studied as a function of the substrate temperatures in the range of 300 to 400 C. The as deposited film exhibit a hexagonal structure w…

In the present work, CaCu3Ti4O12 (CCTO) nanoceramics with different grain sizes were prepared by spark plasma sintering (SPS) at different temperatures (SPS-800, SPS-900, SPS-975, and SPS-1050) of the mechanosynthesized nano-powder. Structural and microstructural properties were studied by XRD and field-emission scann…

Abstract A Mn4+-doped BaMg6Ti6O19 red phosphor was synthesized by a solid-state reaction. This phosphor showed red emission with a peak at 660 nm because of the 2E → 4A2 transition of Mn4+ upon excitation in the region from near ultraviolet to blue. The specimen doped with 0.1% Mn and synthesized at 1250 °C exhibited…

Phase separation of two different isosymmetric phases can occur as a result of their similar ground state energies. We have found such phase separation in a multiferroic system at a tensile-strain-driven morphotropic phase boundary of rhombohedral and orthorhombic bismuth ferrite. We utilize the emergent phase competi…

Gelatin was extracted from alkali-pretreated skin of zebra blenny (Salaria basilisca) using commercial pepsin with a yield of 18 g/100 g of skin sample. The polypeptides pattern, gel strength, viscosity, textural parameters and functional properties of the zebra blenny skin gelatin (ZBSG) were investigated. Amino acid…

We demonstrate effective control of the morphology, defect content and vertical alignment of ZnO nanorod (NR) arrays grown by a solution method by simply varying the hexamine concentration during growth. We show that the amine acts both as a growth ‘stabilizer’ and ‘surfactant’ and controls both Zn release for ZnO for…

An organic–inorganic hybrid mesoporous silica was synthesized via post-grafting of KIT-6 with 4-(triethoxysilyl)butyronitrile. All samples were characterized using their N 2 adsorption–desorption isotherms, XRD, FT–IR, TEM, SEM, and PT. The adsorption potential of this material for removing Pb(II) from aqueous solutio…

Confluent with the single dimension of time, breach of time-reversal symmetry is usually perceived as a one-dimensional concept. In its ultimate realization-the one-way guiding device-it allows optical propagation in one direction, say +z, and forbids it in the opposite direction -z. Hence, in studies of time-reversal…

In multiferroics, magnetism is coupled to ferroelectricity so that the configuration of magnetic moments may be modified by an external electric field and, conversely, the electrically polar state may be magnetically switched. Such functionality has the potential for new technology such as energy-efficient, electrical…

In this work, we report the possibility to selectively switch by voltage and anion exchange the water-repellent properties, in comparison with the oil-repellent properties, of copolymers containing both fluorinated chain (EDOT-F8) and pyridinium (EDOT-Py(+)) moieties. Here, the fluorinated chains are necessary to reac…
