As silicon technology scales down, it is a dominant choice to have high-performance digital circuits. As researchers investigated for high-performance digital circuits for future generations, Carbon Nanotube Field Effect Transistors (CNTFETs) is considered as the most promising technology due to their excellent current driving capability and proved to be an alternative to conventional CMOS technology. A CNTFET based energy efficient ternary operators are proposed for scrambling applications. The transistor-level implementations of operators namely Scrambling Operator1 (SOP1), Scrambling Operator2 (SOP2) and SUM operators are simulated with CMOS and CNTFET in 32 nm technology at 0.9 V supply voltage using Synopsys HSPICE. The performance metrics like Power, Delay and Power-delay product (PDP) are measured and a comparative analysis for CNTFET and CMOS technologies is carried out. The results demonstrate that CNTFET designs have better-optimized results in power, energy consumption, and reduced transistor count.

Fluorine doped tin oxide (FTO) thin films were synthesized by chemical spray pyrolysis method on glass substrates for 10 at.%, 15 at.%, 20 at.% of fluorine doping concentrations. Their structural, optical and electrical properties were investigated. X-ray diffraction (XRD) study shows polycrystalline nature of the films with orthorhombic crystal structure. The grain size (D) was observed in the range of 14 nm to 30 nm. The FESEM images of the FTO thin films reveals that the films have smooth and homogeneous surface morphology with thin granular grains distributed throughout the surface. EDX analysis confirms the presence of Sn, O and F elements in the prepared FTO thin films. Photoluminescence (PL) spectrum shows a broad emission which covers near band edge (NBE) as well as deep level emissions (DLE) in the region 380 nm and 620 nm. From the hall effect measurements, it was observed that all the films exhibit n-type conductivity. The sample grown with 10 at. % of fluorine showed the highest transmission percentage (80%) with high mobility and conductivity, which are basic requirements for a TCO.

The voltammetric behaviour of 4-nitroso-N,N–dimethylaniline (4-NDMA) was investigated on plain glassy carbon electrode (GCE) and multi-walled carbon nanotube modified GCE (MWCNT/GCE) using cyclic voltammetry. Effects of pH, scan rate and concentration were studied. The surface morphology of the modified electrode in the absence and presence of 4-NDMA molecules was characterized by atomic force microscope (AFM). A systematic study on the variation of experimental parameters with differential pulse stripping voltammetry (DPSV) was carried out and the optimized experimental conditions were arrived. MWCNT/GCE performed well compared with the plain GCE system and the limit of detection (LOD) was found to be 7.5 ng/mL 0.1056 ng/mL for 4-NDMA on plain GCE and MWCNT/GCE respectively.

A systematic study on the preparation of tin oxide nanoparticles using the precipitation method has been conducted. The preparation of nanomaterials was by varying reaction parameters such as pH and temperature. The tin oxide nanoparticles were characterized by using AFM, SEM, XRD and UV-Vis. Particle size was obtained using XRD studies the value is 28.8 nm, 35.2 nm, 30.8 nm and 33.8 nm. It was found that the alteration of pH and temperature changes the particle size.

Nickel and sulfur co-doped TiO2 photocatalyst were prepared by using sol-gel method with dopants precursors of nickel nitrate and thiourea. Prepared samples were characterized by XRD, UV-Vis-DRS, TEM, BET, FT-IR and SEM-EDX. These characterization and experimental results revealed that there is a formation of anatase phase, decreased band gap 2.62 eV for NIST-2, small particle size 7.3 nm and high surface area 142.62 m2/g. The FT-IR frequency shift for Ti-O-Ti was observed from 569 cm-1 to 460-560 cm-1 for co-doped TiO2. The efficiency of photocatalytic and antibacterial was evaluated by degradation of Orange-II dye and Escherichia coli (MTCC-443) respectively. The complete degradation of Orange-II was achieved in 120 min at optimum reaction parameters for NIST-2 at pH-3, catalyst dosage-100 mg/L and initial dye concentration at 10 mg/L.

The electrochemical studies of 4-nitrophenol were carried out in acidic, neutral and basic buffer media at bare glassy carbon (GC) and nanosize polyaniline (PANI) modified GC electrodes. In all pH, 4-nitrophenol exhibits three oxidation peaks in forward scan and three reduction peaks in reverse scan in the CV. The peak current reached its maximum value at pH 7.0. The effect of scan rate was studied between 25 and 500 mVs-1 at pH 7. CV results revealed the diffusion-controlled reaction at the electrode surface. The atomic force microscopy used for studies of morphological behavior of nanosize polyaniline and compound adsorbed on PANI surface. Under optimum DPSV experimental conditions, the influence of concentration on the stripping signal was studied A linear relationship between peak current and concentration is obtained in the range 100 to 500 ppb, with lower detection limit of 50 ppb on PANI/GCE. The relative standard deviation of 1.76% for a 250ppb 4-nitrophenol concentration and relative error of 2.6% were also obtained.

This present work describes the synthesis of LaCe co-doped zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles (NPs) prepared by green method using Gymnema sylvestre (G. sylvestre) leaves as reducing as well as capping agent. Green synthesis method avoids inert gases, high pressure, laser radiation, high temperature, toxic chemicals etc. as compared to conventional method like sol-gel technique method, laser ablation method, solvothermal method, inert gas condensation method and chemical reduction method. The synthesized LaCe co-doped ZnO NPs was characterized by X-Ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), elemental analysis (EADX), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), UV-vis spectroscopy and photoluminescence (PL). The LaCe co-doped ZnO NPs was tested against clinical pathogens such as gram positive G+ (Staphylococcus aureus and Streptococcus pneumoniae) and gram negative G- (Klebsiella pneumoniae, Shigella sydenteriae, Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Protus vulgaris) bacterial strains using agar well diffusion method.

From the temperature dependent phononic studies of few layered liquid phase exfoliated MoS2 nanosheets we find that the E12g (in-plane) and A1g (out-of-plane) Raman modes follow red shift with increase in temperature and exhibits non-linear temperature dependence in the entire temperature range (80 to 600 K). The first-order temperature coefficients for E12g and A1g modes are found to be -0.0133 cm-1K-1 and -0.0092 cm-1K-1, respectively. The physical origin of the non-linear temperature dependence is analyzed using an analytical model that includes contribution of the thermal expansion and an-harmonic effects to the lattice potential. Our analysis suggests that the non-linear temperature dependence of E12g and A1g modes mainly originates from the an-harmonic contributions from three-phonon and four-phonon scattering.

Antioxidant activity of Hydrophila auriculata leaf extract and silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) were carried out for proving its utility in free radical mediated diseases. The flower extract and silver nanoparticles were screened for in vitro antioxidant activity by oxygen radical scavenging such as DPPH, total antioxidant assay and superoxide radical scavenging activity at different concentrations. The antioxidant potential was found to be dose dependent. AgNPs possess probable antioxidant activity as compared with Hydrophila auriculata leaf extract and near to the standard. It is an obvious indication that the resulting activity of the AgNPs is not due to any capping agents, which are found in minute amounts but is due to the elemental silver.

We report systematic investigations of lattice mismatch strain and the strain relaxation induced modifications on the valence band electronic structure of the epitaxial Fe3O4/Si (100) and Fe3O4/MgO (100) heterostructures. The Fe3O4 films on Si (100) and MgO (100) substrates were investigated though the angle-integrated photoemission spectroscopy (AIPES) at room temperature in the energy range 45-65 eV. Depending on the strain state of the films, the Raman modes and the Verwey transition temperature show deviations from the corresponding bulk values. The valence band feature at 2.7 eV (3.5 eV) shifts towards (away) the Fermi level with an increase (decrease) in strain resulting in decrease (increase) of density of states (DOS) of the minority spin Fe(A) 3d-eg band (majority spin Fe(B) 3d-t2g band). The effect is more pronounced in the case of films on MgO (100) substrate in comparison to the films on Si (100) substrate.
