This paper reports experimental study on the development of cadmium tungstate scintillator material in the form of nanocrystal films through controlled sol–gel processing and pre-designed doping. We chose cadmium tungstate as a base material for doping and nanostructure development due to its excellent inherent photoluminescence (PL) property, and chemical and thermal stability including non-hy...

Iridates are characterized by a fascinating interplay of spin-orbit and electron-electron interactions. The honeycomb-lattice materials A2IrO3 (A = Na,Li) have been proposed to realize pseudospin-1/2 Mott insulating states with strongly anisotropic exchange interactions, described by the Heisenberg-Kitaev model, but other scenarios involving longer-range exchange interactions or more delocalize...

background: lithium has been the treatment of choice for bipolar disorder (bd) for many years. although erectile dysfunction is a known adverse effect of this drug, the mechanism of action by which lithium affects erectile function is still unknown. objective: the aim was to investigate the possible involvement of nitric oxide (no) in modulatory effect of lithium on penile erection (pe). we fur...

In this study, high nickel layered LiNi0.8Co0.1Mn0.1O2 cathode materials for lithium-ion batteries were modified by yttrium doping and poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene):poly(styrene sulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS) coating. The effects of PEDOT:PSS coating on the structural electrochemical properties material investigated compared. substitution with an electrochemically inert was confirmed to be successfu...

This article presents an overview of the reports on doping TiO2 with carbon, nitrogen, and sulfur, including single, co-, tri-doping. A comparison properties photocatalysts synthesized from various precursors C, N, or S dopants is summarized. Selected methods synthesis non-metal doped are also described. Furthermore, influence preparation conditions mode (interstitial substitutional) reference ...

introduction: lithium salts are known as effective psychotropic medicine for treatment bipolar disorder and may be used to treat alcoholism, schizoaffective disorders, and cluster headaches. the antioxidant activity and immunomodulatory effects of prospective lithium compounds have been investigated in this work. materials and methods: the antioxidant properties were studied by the voltammetry ...

Lithium manganese oxide is regarded as a capable cathode material for lithium-ion batteries, but it suffers from relative low conductivity, dissolution in electrolyte and structural distortion cubic to tetragonal during elevated temperature tests. This review covers comprehensive study about the main directions taken into consideration supress drawbacks of lithium oxide: structure doping surfac...

A new route has been developed to synthesize nitrogen-doped reduced graphene oxide (N-RGO) with excellent lithium storage properties. Nitrogen-doped graphene oxide (N-GO) is firstly synthesized and then reduced to N-RGO. The nitrogen content of N-GO can reach up to 5.6 wt%. After hydrothermal treatment, the nitrogen content of N-RGO still remains at 2.0 wt%. Our N-RGO material reveals excellent...
