Preparation of nanocomposite scintillator of ZnS doped with Ag, Cu and AgCu for alpha particle detection

ZnS nanoparticles (NPs) doped with ‎Ag‎, ‎Cu‎, ‎and AgCu were synthesized using hydrothermal‎ ‎method in water solution‎. ‎The NPS are characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD)‎, ‎energy-dispersive‎ ‎X-ray spectroscopy scanning (EDX)‎, ‎scanning electron‎ ‎microscopy (SEM) and dynamic light scattering (DLS)‎. ‎The produced NPs have approximately hexagonal structure and a cubic zinc blended struc...

Gallium concentration dependence of room-temperature near-band-edge luminescence in n-type ZnO:Ga

Preparation of persisted luminescence pigment and investigation of in glaze compatibility

In this paper, preparation of SrAl2O4:Eu,Dy luminescent pigment has been investigated. Coprecipitation as a low cost and facile method was selected. X-ray diffraction patterns indicated the formation of SrAl2O4:Eu,Dy phase through calcinations process above 800 °C. Moreover, a few amount of silica caused the structural transformation to alumina silicate phase. Transparent glaze which consist of...

Improving Radar Absorbing Capability of Polystyrene Nanocomposites: Preparation and Investigation of Microwave Absorbing Properties

Microwave absorbing materials are usually designed to solve protection against electromagnetic interference in wireless communication systems and high frequency circuit mechanisms. In this research polystyrene (PS) nanocomposites containing various nano-fillers were successfully synthesized. The novelty of this work is comparing of three various nanostructures: non-metallic conductive graphene ...
