Cadmium sulfide zinc phosphate (CdS-Zn3(PO4)2) nanocomposite is synthesized by effective hydrothermal method. Hydrothermal technique produces highly homogeneous crystalline product and controls particle morphology at low reaction temperatures. The prepared powder samples are characterized by Powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), Diffusion reflectance spectrophotometer (DRS), Scanning electron microscope (SEM). From XRD technique the average crystal size of prepared CdS-Zn3(Po4)2 nanocomposite is in the range of 12 nm. Strain and dislocation density are calculated from XRD studies.

Recently it has been reported that low levels of Bi nonstoichiometry (only ±1 atomic %) in the nominal starting composition of Na0.5Bi0.5TiO3 (NBT) ceramics can lead to dramatic changes in the conduction property. Present article present the results of powder XRD, 23Na MAS NMR and impedance spectroscopy in nominal starting compositions, Na0.5Bi0.5+xTiO3+3x/2 with x = 0.0 and − 0.02. Room temperature XRD data analysis indicates both NBTs have a rhombohedral (space group R3c) structure. While, 23Na MAS NMR results demonstrate a complex local structure and significant disordering of Na coordination environment. Impedance spectroscopy reveals high levels of oxide-ion conduction in NBT. 2 at-% Bi-deficient NBT (Na0.5Bi0.48TiO2.97) exhibits higher conductivity of σ∼1.3 × 10−4 S/cm at 500 °C and activation energy, Ea = 0.85 eV. Present results therefore substantiate the A-site nonstoichiometry sensitive electrical property of NBT.Recently it has been reported that low levels of Bi nonstoichiometry (only ±1 atomic %) in the nominal starting composition of Na0.5Bi0.5TiO3 (NBT) ceramics can lead to dramatic changes in the conduction property.

In this work thin films of the phase change material Ge2Sb2Te5 (GST), pure and Ag-doped, were studied. These films were prepared by thermal evaporation method. Amorphous nature of both pure and Ag-doped GST thin films has been confirmed from X-ray diffraction analysis. Raman spectra confirms the host structure of GST which is confirmed by the two sharp peaks at 126.4 cm−1 and 144.9 cm−1 for GST thin films. The hole concentration was found to increase by three orders of magnitude due to Ag doping, as measured by Hall measurements. I-V measurements of the samples show thermal switching at moderate voltage as large current flows through Ag-doped GST. The increase in conductivity was attributed to the crystallization of the films due to heating caused by the large electric current for I-V measurements.In this work thin films of the phase change material Ge2Sb2Te5 (GST), pure and Ag-doped, were studied.

Their unique electrical and optical properties have attracted the attention for photovoltaic and optoelectronic devices. Therefore, in this paper we report fabrication of P3HT:graphene nanocomposite based photodiode with the architecture PET/ITO/P3HT:graphene/Al on Indium tin oxide (ITO) coated flexible polyethylene terephthalate (PET) substrate. The measured current-voltage (I-V) characteristics of the fabricated device under dark condition were found to be similar to the Schottky diode. Various crucial diode parameters, such as ideality factor, barrier height, series resistance etc., have been estimated in the backdrop of Shockley model. The double logarithmic J-V characteristic analysis was carried out to determine the charge transport properties. Moreover, the device offers a good photoconductive behavior, which shows potential of graphene/polymer composite for development of flexible photovoltaic and optoelectronic devices.The polymer-carbon nanocomposites have achieved a remarkable progress over the past years.

Lead-free sodium niobate (NaNbO3) ceramics is prepared via conventional solid state reaction technique at sintering temperature 1150 °C for 4 h. The structural and surface morphology of the sample has been done by using X-ray diffraction and Field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), respectively.

The surface micrographs of NN sample indicates the formation of grains with clear grain boundaries and orthorhombic shape. The detailed investigation of dielectric properties of NN ceramics are done in wide frequency range (100 Hz – 1 MHz) at various temperatures (250 °C – 330 °C).

In the present work, investigations of structural, magnetic and induction heating properties of surface functionalized zinc ferrite nanoparticles were carried out successfully. The zinc ferrite nanoparticles were prepared by co-precipitation route and further functionalized with oleic acid. The room temperature X-ray diffraction pattern confirmed the typical cubic spinel structure of the prepared nanoparticles. The average crystallite size calculated from Scherrer’s formula was found to be 12.30 nm confirming the nanocrystalline nature of zinc ferrite nanoparticles. The characteristic peaks observed in FT-IR spectrum confirmed the formation of cubic spinel structure and oleic acid coating over zinc ferrite nanoparticles. The room temperature magnetization behaviour revealed the superparamagnetic nature of the prepared nanoparticles. The induction heating behaviour shows a desirable amount (6 mg/mL) of zinc ferrite nanoparticles can able to achieve 42°C temperature for 600 s at 4.0 kA/m. This indicates that the resulting zinc ferrite nanoparticles are promising materials in magnetic hyperthermia treatments.

The present paper describes the synthesis and in vitro bioactivity of SiO2-CaO-Na2O bio-glass using bio-waste. Rice husk ash (RHA) and eggshells bio-waste have been used as resources for extracting the silicon dioxide and calcium oxide respectively. Glass samples were obtained by standard melt-quenching technique. The bioactivity was assessed using in vitro studies in simulated body fluid (SBF). The nucleation and growth of hydroxyapatite were confirmed using XRD, FTIR and SEM-EDS characterizations. XRD have confirmed the phase of hydroxyapatite, well matched with its standard JCPDS data. FTIR spectra reveal the apparent silicate stretching, bending vibration modes and phosphate absorption bands.

本文介绍了利用生物废弃物制备二氧化硅- cao - na2o生物玻璃及其体外生物活性。稻壳灰和蛋壳生物废弃物分别作为提取二氧化硅和氧化钙的资源。玻璃样品采用标准熔融淬火技术制备。通过体外模拟体液(SBF)研究评估其生物活性。采用XRD、FTIR和SEM-EDS表征羟基磷灰石的成核和生长。XRD证实了羟基磷灰石的物相,与JCPDS标准数据吻合良好。FTIR光谱显示了明显的硅酸盐拉伸、弯曲振动模式和磷酸盐吸收带。表面形貌已观察到使用扫描电镜图像产生球形的羟基磷灰石形成。通过能谱分析,确定了磷灰石中的钙、磷等化学成分。这些结果完美地证明了RHA和蛋壳是生产生物玻璃的潜在有益来源。本文介绍了利用生物废弃物制备二氧化硅- cao - na2o生物玻璃及其体外生物活性。稻壳灰和蛋壳生物废弃物分别作为提取二氧化硅和氧化钙的资源。玻璃样品采用标准熔融淬火技术制备。通过体外模拟体液(SBF)研究评估其生物活性。采用XRD、FTIR和SEM-EDS表征羟基磷灰石的成核和生长。XRD证实了羟基磷灰石的物相,与JCPDS标准数据吻合良好。FTIR光谱显示了明显的硅酸盐拉伸、弯曲振动模式和磷酸盐吸收带。表面形貌已观察到使用扫描电镜图像产生球形的羟基磷灰石形成。通过能谱分析,确定了磷灰石中的钙、磷等化学成分。这些结果完美地证明了RHA和蛋壳是潜在的有益的生产生物蛋白的来源。

Wide-angle X-ray scattering (WAXS) for the considered raw MCU-5 cotton fiber has been carried out using imaging plate system (Dip-3200) with dimension 440 x 240 mm2. By employing Linked atom least square (LALS) method, we are reporting here the molecular and crystal structure of this cotton fiber. We have computed elastic moduli tensor components of this fiber. From the bond angle, dihedral angles we have computed Young’s modulus as 76 GPA, which is in agreement with the earlier reported values.Wide-angle X-ray scattering (WAXS) for the considered raw MCU-5 cotton fiber has been carried out using imaging plate system (Dip-3200) with dimension 440 x 240 mm2.
