We investigated the impact of the designed contact area (DCA) and designed contact length (DCL) on material removal rates (MRR) when using a pad with a structured surface in chemical mechanical polishing. The structure of the structured surface pad (SSP) was precisely defined, and an examination was conducted to assess the influence of variations in the shape, size, and spacing of the unit figure (UF) on the MRR. The results revealed that maintaining the DCA constant while altering the UF shape to extend the DCL led to a 203% increase in the MRR. Furthermore, modifications in the UF size enhanced the MRR by approximately 630%. The relationship between the DCL and MRR was dependent on the DCA. The characteristics of the SSP, particularly the concentrated pressure and involvement of slurry particles at the edges of the contact area, indicated that an increase in the DCL could augment the active slurry particles. This study offers valuable insights into the pad figure structure, simultaneously advancing our understanding of the pad surface topography and its influence on material removal. By focusing on both structural engineering and practical applications, this study paves the way for future research and enables further exploration in this field.

In this paper, an analytical model for a novel design dielectric modulated plasma-assisted carbon nanotube field-effect transistor (DM-PA-CNTFET) biosensor is proposed for breast cancer detection. This work is based on a PA-CNTFET in which CNT is used as a channel of FET, and various other device engineering techniques such as dual metal gate-all-around structure and dielectric stack of SiO2 and HfO2 have been used. A comparative analysis of DS-GAAE-CNTFET was performed using a silicon gate all-around FET (Silicon-GAA-FET)-based biosensor. Early detection of breast cancer is made possible by immobilizing MDA-MB-231 and HS578t into the dual-sided nanocavity, which alters the electrical properties of the proposed CNTFET-based biosensor. The DS-GAAE-CNTFET sensor demonstrates a drain ON current sensitivity of 236.9 nA and a threshold voltage sensitivity of 285.58 mV for HS578t cancer cells. Malignant MDA-MB-231 breast cells exhibit a higher drain ON current sensitivity of 343.35 nA and a corresponding threshold voltage sensitivity of 293.23 mV. The exceptional sensitivity and structural resilience of the DS-GAAE-CNTFET biosensor establish it as a promising candidate for early breast cancer detection.

A dual-source cavity charge plasma tunneling FET (DSC-SP-CPTFET) with SiGe Pocket is proposed, and its effectiveness as a biological sensor for label-free detection is explored. The fabrication complexity and cost have been reduced by using the charge-plasma concept. For improved sensing, an etched nanocavity is added to the upper and lower of the source metal section. The high-k (HfO2) gate oxide and minimal energy gap (Si0.6Ge0.4) alloy with a 40% mole fraction improve the current sensitivity by enhancing the drain current gradient. The sensitivity of the suggested biological sensor is assessed here for several neutral biological molecules, such as Gelatin, Keratin, Biotin, and 3-Aminopropyl-Triethoxysilane (APTES). Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), a charged biological molecule, is also considered with varying positive and negative charge densities. The suggested biological sensor shows a (SIDS)max of 2.21 × 1010 and a Sratio of 3.11 × 109 for biological molecules with higher dielectric constant at room temperature. Different electrostatic performances are estimated in the ON state, including energy band, electron (e-) BTBT rate, electrical field, and IDS-VGS characteristics. In addition, the proposed biological sensor provides a much superior drain current sensitivity (SIDS), current ratio sensitivity (Sratio), and average SS sensitivity (SSS) performance in the presence of both charged and neutral biological molecules.

This study reports the synthesis of high dielectric constant zirconia oxide (ZrO2) nanorods (NRs) via a co-precipitation method followed by calcination at 700 °C for 2 h. X-ray diffraction (XRD) confirms a mixed-phase composition of orthorhombic and monoclinic structures, while transmission electron microscopy (TEM) reveals distinct nanorods. Energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDAX) verifies the elemental composition. Photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy indicates band gap energy of 1.9 eV, aligning better with orthorhombic zirconia. UV–vis analysis suggests oxygen vacancy defects potentially influencing the optical properties due to the nanorod morphology. Importantly, dielectric studies show a high dielectric constant of 29 at 1 MHz, which is approximately four times higher than commercially available ZrO2.

The effect of Bismuth on zinc-lithium tetra borate glasses were discussed based on structural, physical, and spectroscopic properties. Glass systems of Bi2O3-ZnO-Li2B4O7-TbF3 [BZLT] were cast by melt-quench process. Transparent glasses were analysed by diffracted Roentgen X-rays. Peak free and broad nature X-ray diffraction revealed the amorphous arrangement prevailing in these glasses. Density was estimated using the Archimedes principle. Bismuth grossly affected the density of BZLT glasses by increasing its value 2.722 gm/cc [BZLT-0] to 4.6739 gm/cc [BZLT-40]. Optical absorption provides valuable information about optical band gap energy and Urbach energy and some of its derived physical quantities. The effect of bismuth is felt in decreased Eopt values [3.312 eV in BZLT-0] [2.619 eV in BZLT-40] in BZLT glasses. Bismuth altered the structure of the borate network by forming non-bridging oxygens which in turn reduced the band gap energy by large margin (ΔEopt = 0.693 eV). Fourier transform infrared spectroscpy and Raman studies revealed the presence of several triangular BO3 and tetrahedral BO4 and BiO3 units and also the existence of metal cation vibrations and supported the large deviations in the optical bandgap energies. Election paramagnetic resonance studies support the presence of Tb3+ ions and absence of Tb4+ions in BZLT glasses.

Y0.85La0.15Fe1−(4/3)xTixO3 (where (x = 0, 0.025, 0.05 and 0.075) nanomaterials were prepared using tartare acid assisted sol-gel method. Various analytical characterization techniques such as X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), UV–vis absorption, Vibrating-sample magnetometer (VSM) and dielectric spectroscopy were employed to characterize the synthesized nanomaterials. Downward shifted of (121) and (002) planes were observed with an increasing of Ti concentration at Fe site through XRD study. The ability of the prepared nano-powders to absorb visible light was demonstrated by the investigation of diffuse reflectance spectra, which showed a decline in bandgap from 2.13 eV to 2.06 eV. XPS studies revealed that Y and La atoms are existed in +3 oxidation state, Fe atom is existed in mixed (+2 and +3) oxidation state and Ti atom is existed in mixed (+3 and +4) oxidation state. The highest magnetization value was observed for x = 0.05 sample through VSM study. High dielectric constant, low dielectric loss and low conductivity values were also observed for Y0.85La0.15Fe1−(4/3)xTixO3 (where (x = 0.05)).

In this work, we present a novel surface plasmon resonance (SPR) sensor for ascorbic acid detection based on a borosilicate crown (BK7) prism coated with a multilayer structure made of ferric oxide (Fe2O3), silver (Ag), and carbon nanotube (CNT). The SPR sensor improves sensitivity and selectivity for ascorbic acid detection by taking advantage of the special optical characteristics of the multilayer construction. The CNT layer offers increased surface area and biocompatibility, and the Ag layer acts as a plasmonic material to promote surface plasmons. The performance of the sensor is improved by the addition of selenium (Se) and Fe2O3 layers, which provide further capabilities like photoconductivity and magnetic manipulation, respectively. Numerical analysis at the operating wavelength of 633 nm is conducted using the transfer matrix approach. For the proposed SPR sensor at room temperature, the performance characteristics, including sensitivity (274.37 degree (°)/RIU), figure of merit (40.60 RIU−1), and detection accuracy (0.189°−1), are computed. The proposed SPR sensor could be very useful in to detect ascorbic acid in the visible range.

This study explores the impact of doping with Ho, Gd, and La on sol-gel-derived nickel ferrites through a comprehensive analysis using various analytical techniques. The combination of X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis, X-ray fluorescence (XRF) spectra analysis, impedance spectroscopy, and I-V analysis enables a detailed exploration of the structural, compositional, and electrical characteristics of the samples. Williamson-Hall plots in XRD analysis reveal crucial insights into grain and grain boundary impacts, revealing a shift in trends for doped samples indicative of tensile strain and underscores the influence of dopant ions on lattice distortion. XRF study confirms the elemental composition of the samples, validating the experimental approach. Impedance spectroscopy sheds light on conduction mechanisms and charge transfer processes, while the modulus study identifies distinct relaxation peaks corresponding to grain and grain boundary relaxation mechanisms. IV analysis demonstrates a significant reduction in leakage current with rare Earth element doping, suggesting promising applications.

Using the traditional solid-state reaction approach, multiferroic ceramics with the compositional formula Yb1−xHoxMnO3, where x = 0 to 0.4 with 0.1 variation were synthesized. The structural and magnetic properties of the prepared poly-crystalline samples Yb1−xHoxMnO3 were investigated to show the effect of higher magnetic moment Ho3+ ion over the Yb ion. X-ray diffraction was used to analyze the compound’s crystal structure and confirm that they have a hexagonal single-phase structure with a P63cm space group. The presence of functional groups and their shifting to lower frequency regions were revealed by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy. UV–vis absorbance spectra were used to calculate the energy gap values, and the resultant data shows a decrease in band gap values with an increase in Ho3+ doping. Crystal deformation with the doping of Ho3+ was observed using Raman spectra. Room-temperature magnetic studies were used to reveal the paramagnetic nature of the samples and the increase in magnetic parameters due to the doping of the higher magnetic moment Ho3+ ion.

Poly (methyl methacrylate, PMMA)/ multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs)/ x wt %zinc manganite (ZnMn2O4) polymers were fabricated using co-precipitation and casting techniques. The structure of the filler and all polymers was determined with X-ray diffraction. The morphology of the polymer surfaces was explored by employing scanning electron microscopy. The direct and indirect band gap energies (Eg) of PMMA polymer (5.02, 4.44) eV decreased attaining minimum values (4.97, 3.41) eV upon the addition of MWCNTs and 2 wt% ZnMn2O4. The refractive index at 600 nm was increased from 1.33 (PMMA) to 1.55 (x = 2 wt% ZnMn2O4). The optical dielectric constant and optical conductivity displayed their highest values when the ZnMn2O4 doping level reached 2 wt%. The PMMA/MWCNTs/x wt% ZnMn2O4 polymers exhibited blue-violet colors on the CIE 1931 chromaticity diagram under excitation wavelength of 317 nm. The electrical dielectric constant and the AC conductivity attained their peak at the concentration of 2 wt% and 1 wt% ZnMn2O4, respectively. PMMA/MWCNTs/x wt% ZnMn2O4 polymers possess controllable optical and electrical characteristics, thus making them potentially valuable optical materials for future optoelectronic or photocatalytic application development.
