Microwave assisted reactions have gained considerable attention, due to versatility and reduction ofsolvent and reaction time. The reaction of a nano-coconut shell and boron tri-fluoride in diethylether solvent resulted in preparation of nano-coconut shell-BF3 as a catalyst. The nano-coconutshell-BF3 catalyst has been characterized by fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (F...

The magnetic nanoparticle composite NiFe2O4 has traditionally been studied for high-frequency microwave absorption with marginal performance towards low-frequency radar bands (particularly L and S bands). Here, NiFe2O4 nanoparticles and nanohybrids using large-diameter graphene oxide (GO) sheets are prepared via solvothermal synthesis for low-frequency wide bandwidth shielding (L and S radar ba...

An ion beam technique has been developed that combines some of the methods of mass spectrometry and molecular spectroscopy and is designed for the study of molecular ions at energy levels lying very close to the lowest dissociation limit. Microwave radiation is used to drive spectroscopic transitions, and electric field dissociation of the weakly bound levels provides a high degree of state sel...

In this research, Zn2SnO4 nanorods were prepared and structural properties of the nanorods were characterized, developing of wide-range of the optical behavior of Zn2SnO4 nanorods and the antibacterial activity was also investigated using a microwave-assisted method. A zinc stannate (Zn2SnO4) nanorod was synthesized via facile microwave-assisted method using ammonia with cubic spinel structure....

A study of the use of millimeter-wavelength spectral transitions to investigate the atmosphere of Mars is presented. In the model experiments investigated it is assumed that a spectrometer in the frequency range from 100 to 260 GHz looks into a modest-sized telescope of from 30 to 50 cm aperture from a near-Mars orbit. The molecules H(2)O, CO, O(2), O(3), and H(2)O(2) all have intense spectral ...

It is fairly evident that one should be able to observe nonlinear effects in the interaction of lasers with matter. A 1-MW laser can create an electric field a few volts per angstrom in matter. Since this is on the order of atomic fields, it is not surprising that nonlinear interactions are observable in matter not possessing a center-of-inversion symmetry. In contrast, it is certainly not evid...

reaction of glycin with malononitrile afforded respective pyrrole. pyrrole is one of the heterocyclic compounds with very important biological activities. heterocycles are extremely important because of their wide range of applications that goes from their use as pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals to dyestuffs and additives. in this view, it was proposed to synthesize pyrrole-3-carbonitrile deri...

SnO nanoparticles were synthesized using microwave–assisted hydrothermal method. It was noticed that at 300 and 600 watt microwave power, SnO formed and remained in the tetragonal phase. At 900 watt, SnO2 started appearing and a mixture of SnO and SnO2 phases coexisted. The particle size varied from ~2 to ~13 nm at 300 to 900 watt radiation power. The UV-V absorption spectra showed the excitoni...
