Within the framework of density function theory (DFT), the structural, electronic, optical, and mechanical properties of cubic perovskites TlXBr3 (X = Cu, Ag) are investigated using WIEN2K code. The optimized equilibrium lattice parameters of the studied compounds are calculated and found to be 5.10 Å and 5.42 Å for TlCuBr3 and TlAgBr3, respectively. Formation energy is calculated to study the thermodynamic stability. To conform the dynamic stability, we also calculated the phonon dispersion curve. The phonon calculation indicates that both materials are dynamically stable. The calculations of elastic properties indicates that TlCuBr3 and TlAgBr3 compounds exhibit ductile nature, with anisotropic behaviors. Moreover, compounds demonstrate resistance to plastic deformation, attributes to their high G. The examination of electronic band structures and density of states (DOS) indicates that both materials have metallic nature. Moreover, the optical properties are calculated in the energy range of 0–20 eV to explore the potential of the studied materials for optoelectronic applications. The static refractive index values are found to be approximately 2.2 and 3.57 for TlCuBr3 and TlAgBr3 compounds respectively. It was observed that n(ω), and α(ω) exhibit analogous characteristics to ε1 (ω), ε2 (ω) and σ (ω), respectively. These results provide understanding regarding the structural stability, mechanical behavior, electrical nature, and optical response of TlXBr3 (X = Cu, Ag) compounds, enhancing our knowledge of their unique features.

The utilization of arginase for catalyzing the synthesis of L-arginine into L-ornithine has proven to be an effective industrial production process. The poor stability of arginase hampers its synthesis efficiency. Organic-inorganic hybrid nanoflowers serve as an effective strategy for enzyme immobilization. However, the precipitation of such immobilized enzymes is prone to dissolution and destruction in amino acid solutions, limiting their applicability. This paper systematically investigates the solubility of organic-inorganic hybrid nanoflowers formed with common metal ions in typical amino acid solutions. Additionally, a novel approach involving the preparation of calcium phosphate hybrid nanoflowers using crude arginase is developed. The findings confirm that the immobilized arginase exhibits superior stability and a broader application range. In the reaction system where L-arginine is utilized as a substrate for synthesizing ornithine, the immobilized arginase demonstrates higher substrate conversion rates and ornithine concentrations compared to free arginase crude extract. This approach holds the potential for industrial applications due to its improved performance.

利用精氨酸酶催化 L-精氨酸合成 L-鸟氨酸已被证明是一种有效的工业生产工艺。精氨酸酶稳定性差,影响了其合成效率。有机-无机杂化纳米花是一种有效的酶固定策略。然而,这种固定化酶的沉淀在氨基酸溶液中容易溶解和破坏,限制了其适用性。本文系统研究了与常见金属离子形成的有机-无机杂化纳米花在典型氨基酸溶液中的溶解性。此外,还开发了一种利用粗精氨酸酶制备磷酸钙杂化纳米花的新方法。研究结果证实,固定化精氨酸酶具有更高的稳定性和更广泛的应用范围。在以 L-精氨酸为底物合成鸟氨酸的反应体系中,与游离精氨酸酶粗提物相比,固定化精氨酸酶表现出更高的底物转化率和鸟氨酸浓度。这种方法由于性能更佳,具有工业应用潜力。

This study elucidates the synthesis of polyaniline/nickel ferrite (PANI/NF) hybrid nanocomposites (NCs) via in-situ chemical oxidative polymerization, incorporating nickel ferrite (NF) at different weight fractions (5%, 10%, and 20%) into the PANI matrix. Extensive characterizations of the structural, optical, morphological, dielectric, and magnetic properties of the PANI/NF composites were conducted. X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis verified the homogeneous dispersion of NF nanoparticles within the PANI matrix. Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy identified potential interactions between the PANI macromolecules and NF nanoparticles. Ultraviolet-visible (UV-Vis) optical absorption spectroscopy revealed a decrease in both direct and indirect optical band gaps of the PANI/NF composites with increasing NF content. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) coupled with energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), along with Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FESEM), confirmed the effective incorporation of NF into the PANI matrix. Dielectric measurements were performed to assess the real (K’) and imaginary (K’’) components of dielectric permittivity, dielectric loss tangent (tan δ), and AC conductivity (σac) as functions of frequency and composition. Nyquist plots of the samples exhibited a depressed semi-circle, indicating a non-Debye capacitive nature. The AC conductivity of PANI and its composites increases with frequency, following Jonscher’s universal power law. The improved conductivity of PANI with the addition of NF correlates with a decrease in the band gap. Magnetic characterization, through magnetization curves, compared pure PANI with PANI/NF composites, demonstrating the potential for tuning the magnetic properties of PANI by controlled NF integration during polymerization. The results suggest significant interfacial interactions between the polymer matrix and NF nanoparticles within the NCs, leading to modified dielectric and magnetic properties. The ability to precisely engineer the properties of the NCs through varying proportions of PANI and NF nanoparticles highlights the innovative potential of these materials in advanced technological applications. This study markedly advances the field of conducting polymer-ferrite composites, providing a foundation for novel applications in diverse technological domains.

本研究阐明了通过原位化学氧化聚合法合成聚苯胺/镍铁氧体(PANI/NF)杂化纳米复合材料(NCs),并在 PANI 基体中加入不同重量分数(5%、10% 和 20%)的镍铁氧体(NF)。对 PANI/NF 复合材料的结构、光学、形态、介电和磁性能进行了广泛的表征。X 射线衍射 (XRD) 分析证实了 NF 纳米粒子在 PANI 基体中的均匀分散。傅立叶变换红外光谱(FTIR)确定了 PANI 大分子和 NF 纳米粒子之间潜在的相互作用。紫外可见(UV-Vis)光学吸收光谱显示,随着 NF 含量的增加,PANI/NF 复合材料的直接和间接光带隙都有所减小。扫描电子显微镜(SEM)和能量色散 X 射线光谱(EDX)以及场发射扫描电子显微镜(FESEM)证实,NF 有效地融入了 PANI 基体。介电测量是为了评估介电常数的实部(K')和虚部(K'')、介质损耗正切(tan δ)和交流电导率(σac)与频率和成分的函数关系。样品的奈奎斯特图显示出一个凹陷的半圆,表明样品具有非德拜电容性。PANI 及其复合材料的交流电导率随着频率的增加而增加,这符合容舍的普遍幂律。加入 NF 后,PANI 的电导率提高,这与带隙减小有关。通过磁化曲线对纯 PANI 和 PANI/NF 复合材料进行了磁性表征比较,证明了在聚合过程中通过控制 NF 集成来调整 PANI 磁性能的潜力。结果表明,聚合物基体与 NC 内的 NF 纳米颗粒之间存在明显的界面相互作用,从而改变了介电和磁性能。通过改变 PANI 和 NF 纳米粒子的比例来精确设计 NC 特性的能力,凸显了这些材料在先进技术应用中的创新潜力。这项研究显著推动了导电聚合物-铁氧体复合材料领域的发展,为其在不同技术领域的新型应用奠定了基础。

Films of PVP-Si3N4-TiN new nanostructures have been fabricated to use in different promising nanoelectronics and energy storage fields. The absorbance and transmittance spectra for PVP-Si3N4-TiN nanostructures’ were recorded at wavelength ranged (340 nm to 840 nm). The results showed the increase of concentration from 12.5 g/L to 37.5 g/L causes to increase in the absorption about 63.8% at λ = 380 nm but the transmission reduced. This behaviour lead to make the PVP-Si3N4-TiN nanostructures are suitable for various renewable fields. The energy gap of PVP-Si3N4-TiN nanostructures reduced from 3.1 eV to 2.4 eV when the concentration increased from 12.5 g/L to 37.5 g/L. The other optical factors were increased with rising concentration. The results of energy storage application indicated that the melting time decreased about 65.25% with an increase in concentration from 12.5 g/L to 37.5 g/L which make them appropriate for energy storage and nanoelectronics fields.

制备出的 PVP-Si3N4-TiN 新型纳米结构薄膜有望应用于不同的纳米电子学和储能领域。在波长(340 纳米至 840 纳米)范围内记录了 PVP-Si3N4-TiN 纳米结构的吸光度和透射率光谱。结果表明,浓度从 12.5 g/L 增加到 37.5 g/L 时,在 λ = 380 nm 处的吸收率增加了约 63.8%,但透射率却降低了。这种特性使 PVP-Si3N4-TiN 纳米结构适用于各种可再生领域。当浓度从 12.5 g/L 增加到 37.5 g/L 时,PVP-Si3N4-TiN 纳米结构的能隙从 3.1 eV 减小到 2.4 eV。其他光学因子则随着浓度的增加而增加。储能应用结果表明,随着浓度从 12.5 g/L 增加到 37.5 g/L,熔化时间缩短了约 65.25%,这使它们适合用于储能和纳米电子学领域。

Due to their rich and extraordinary properties, halide perovskites have gained attention over time for their applications in thermoelectric and solar cells. This paper investigates the properties of cubic halides AMgI3 (A = Li/Na) compounds focusing on their optoelectronic and thermoelectric characteristics using the FP-LAPW method and semi-classical Boltzmann transport theory. The structural (− 43130.389030 Ry, − 43440.262047 Ry) and mechanical stability were confirmed by assessing the tolerance factor (0.81, 0.87) and formation energy (− 326.60, − 76.38), and by evaluating the elastic constants, respectively. The calculated value of Poisson ratio and Pugh ratio greater than their cutoff limit (2.29 and 2.18) reveal that our examined materials are ductile in nature. To examine the optoelectronic and transport properties the Trans-Bhala modified Becke Johnson potential (TB–mBJ) is employed. Using the TB–mBJ exchange – correlation potential function, the calculated indirect band gap values for LiMgI3 and NaMgI3 are 2.56 and 2.71 eV, respectively. These band gaps are suitable for solar energy harvesting due to their broad optical absorption ranging from infrared to visible light. To look at how individual atoms contributed, the partial and total densities of states were calculated. To investigate the possible application in renewable energy devices, we lastly compute the thermo-electric parameters, such as thermal (κ/τ) and electricity (σ/τ) conductivity, the Seebeck coefficient (S), energy factor (PF), and figure of merit (zT), which were analysed by BoltzTraP code within a range of temperatures (300 K–600 K) and chemical potentials.

由于卤化物包晶具有丰富而非凡的特性,它们在热电和太阳能电池中的应用日益受到关注。本文采用 FP-LAPW 方法和半经典波尔兹曼输运理论研究了立方卤化物 AMgI3(A = Li/Na)化合物的特性,重点关注其光电和热电特性。通过评估公差系数(0.81,0.87)和形成能(- 326.60,- 76.38)以及弹性常数,分别确认了其结构(- 43130.389030 Ry,- 43440.262047 Ry)和机械稳定性。泊松比和普氏比的计算值大于其临界值(2.29 和 2.18),这表明所研究的材料具有韧性。为了研究材料的光电和传输特性,我们采用了跨巴拉修正贝克-约翰逊势(TB-mBJ)。利用 TB-mBJ 交换-相关势函数,计算出 LiMgI3 和 NaMgI3 的间接带隙值分别为 2.56 和 2.71 eV。这些带隙具有从红外线到可见光的广泛光学吸收,因此适合用于太阳能收集。为了了解单个原子的贡献,我们计算了状态的部分密度和总密度。为了研究在可再生能源设备中的可能应用,我们最后计算了热电参数,如热导率(κ/τ)和电导率(σ/τ)、塞贝克系数(S)、能量因子(PF)和优点系数(zT),并在一定温度(300 K-600 K)和化学势范围内使用 BoltzTraP 代码进行了分析。

Ge15Se75Zn10 thin films (TFs) with varying thicknesses were deposited onto glass substrates via vacuum evaporation. These TFs were subjected to comprehensive characterization through X-ray diffraction (XRD), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), and optical spectroscopy. XRD analysis of the deposited Ge15Se75Zn10 thin films at different thicknesses indicated that the 250 nm film exhibited an amorphous structure, while the 350 and 450 nm films exhibited crystalline phases, predominantly composed of GeSe and ZnSe. The crystalline sizes of these phases increased with film thickness, reaching 25 nm and 49 nm for ZnSe and GeSe, respectively, in the 450 nm film. SEM imaging revealed fine particles dispersed within an amorphous matrix in the 250 nm film, while erratic particle sizes and shapes were observed in the 350 nm film, with a more uniform distribution in thicker films. These SEM results provided complementary insights to the X-ray analysis. Optical properties were investigated by measuring transmittance T(λ) and reflectance R(λ). The optical band gap (Eg) decreased with increasing film thickness, measuring 2.913 eV, 2.780 eV, and 2.83 eV for the 250 nm, 350 nm, and 450 nm films, respectively. Additionally, Urbach energy (EU), dielectric constant of high frequency (εL), and charge carrier concentration increased with film thickness, while the energy of the single oscillator (Eo) and dispersive energy (Ed) decreased with increasing TFs thickness. These research findings offer valuable insights into the structural, morphological, and optical characteristics of Ge15Se75Zn10 TFs, showcasing potential applications in optoelectronic devices and thin film technology. A systematic exploration of these thin films not only advances materials science and technology but also opens avenues for future research and development across diverse fields.

通过真空蒸发将不同厚度的 Ge15Se75Zn10 薄膜(TFs)沉积到玻璃基底上。通过 X 射线衍射 (XRD)、扫描电子显微镜 (SEM) 和光学光谱对这些 TF 进行了综合表征。对沉积的不同厚度的 Ge15Se75Zn10 薄膜进行的 XRD 分析表明,250 nm 薄膜呈无定形结构,而 350 nm 和 450 nm 薄膜呈结晶相,主要由 GeSe 和 ZnSe 组成。这些相的结晶尺寸随着薄膜厚度的增加而增大,在 450 纳米薄膜中,ZnSe 和 GeSe 的结晶尺寸分别达到 25 纳米和 49 纳米。扫描电子显微镜成像显示,在 250 nm 薄膜中,微粒分散在无定形基质中,而在 350 nm 薄膜中,微粒的尺寸和形状不稳定,在较厚的薄膜中,微粒的分布更加均匀。这些扫描电镜结果为 X 射线分析提供了补充见解。通过测量透射率 T(λ) 和反射率 R(λ) 研究了光学特性。光带隙(Eg)随着薄膜厚度的增加而减小,250 nm、350 nm 和 450 nm 薄膜的测量值分别为 2.913 eV、2.780 eV 和 2.83 eV。此外,厄巴赫能(EU)、高频介电常数(εL)和电荷载流子浓度随薄膜厚度的增加而增加,而单振子能量(Eo)和色散能(Ed)则随 TFs 厚度的增加而降低。这些研究成果对 Ge15Se75Zn10 TFs 的结构、形态和光学特性提供了宝贵的见解,展示了其在光电器件和薄膜技术中的潜在应用。对这些薄膜的系统探索不仅推动了材料科学与技术的发展,也为未来不同领域的研究与开发开辟了道路。

The photophysical properties of the donor N,N-diethylamino (-NEt2) and acceptor nitro (-NO2) group substituted salicylideneaniline derivative (E)-5-(diethylamino)-2-(4-nitrophenyl)methylphenol (DSAN), were investigated using steady-state and time-resolved fluorescence spectroscopy. Different solvents showed intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) and excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) states. The pH effect on DSAN revealed enol, ICT, ESIPT states, and anionic forms. Solute–solvent interactions, like hydrogen bonding, influenced longer wavelength emissions in high-polarity solvents, indicating the ICT state. DFT studies optimized the DSAN molecule in various solvents, and electrostatic potential analysis identified electrophilic and nucleophilic areas and the HOMO–LUMO band energy gap was around 3.0 eV. Also the molecular docking studies showed DSAN's hydrophobic and hydrogen bond interactions with thymidylate synthase (TS). Biological studies indicated DSAN has minimal antioxidant and antimicrobial activity.

In recent years, inorganic perovskite solar cells have attracted increasing interest in the field of photovoltaics. This study focused on the optimization of these cells using CsPbCl3 as the absorber material through extensive simulations using SCAPS-1D software. In addition, first-principles calculations were performed using density functional theory (DFT) to explore the properties of CsPbCl3, such as its structure, energy band, total and partial density of states, and their optical properties. Different ETL layers, such as C60, ZnSe, PCBM, SnO2 and WS2, and an inorganic HTL composed of zinc-doped Cu2O (7%), were evaluated. The results showed that using SnO2 as the ETL yielded the best performance. The study also examined the impact of various critical parameters, such as the thickness and defect density of the absorber layer, donor doping density in this layer, series and shunt resistances, metal work function, and operating temperatures, on the overall cell performance. The optimum device configuration, FTO/SnO2/CsPbCl3/Cu2O: Zn(7%)/Au, showed a PCE of 24.23%, FF of 88.45%, VOC of 1.567 V, and JSC of 17.48 mA/cm2. The results underline the crucial importance of CsPbCl3 for optical applications, particularly in solar energy conversion, highlighting the considerable potential of this material.

Half metallic ferromagnetism has gained immense importance due to its advanced applications in spintronic. This article comprehensively elaborates on the magnetic and thermoelectric characteristics of the spinels MgCo2(S/Se)4 by the DFT approach. The optimized energies in ferromagnetic (FM) and antiferromagnetic (AFM) states confirm the stability of FM states, which is further elucidated thermodynamically by formation energy. The Heisenberg model is engaged to report the Curie temperature (Tc). The band structures and DOS are resolved to confirm half-metallic ferromagnetism and spin polarization. Furthermore, the exchange energies, crystal field energy, and exchange constants are computed to address the nature of ferromagnetism. The shifting of a magnetic moment from Co to nonmagnetic sites shows that the exchange of electrons is responsible for ferromagnetism. Moreover, the transport characteristics of the studied spinel are addressed by the Seebeck coefficient, electrical conductivity, power factor, and thermal conductivity in the temperature range from 0 to 800 K.

半金属铁磁性因其在自旋电子学中的先进应用而变得极为重要。本文通过 DFT 方法全面阐述了尖晶石 MgCo2(S/Se)4 的磁性和热电特性。铁磁(FM)态和反铁磁(AFM)态的优化能量证实了 FM 态的稳定性,并通过形成能进一步从热力学角度阐明了这一点。海森堡模型报告了居里温度(Tc)。带状结构和 DOS 的解析证实了半金属铁磁性和自旋极化。此外,还计算了交换能、晶体场能和交换常数,以探讨铁磁性的本质。磁矩从 Co 位移到非磁性位移表明,电子的交换是铁磁性的原因。此外,所研究的尖晶石在 0 至 800 K 温度范围内的塞贝克系数、电导率、功率因数和热导率也说明了其传输特性。
