calcium doped nickel ferrite powders have been prepared by sol-gel combustion technique. metal nitrates, such as calcium nitrate, nickel nitrate and ferric nitrate, were used as the source materials and citric acid and polyvinyl alcohol were used as the burning agent and agglomeration reducing agent, respectively. the average crystallite size of the prepared ferrite was in the order of ~70- 92 ...

Magnetic hysteresis and magnetic relaxation measurements have been performed to study vortex pinning behaviors for pure, Fe doped and heavily Pb doped Bi2212 single crystals. Unlike pure and Fe doped Bi2212 crystals, heavily Pb doped crystal showed strong vortex pinning behavior. We interpret the strong pinning in heavily Pb doped Bi2212 single crystals as arising from the improved Josephson co...

Zinc and carbon-doped InP/InGaAs heterojunction bipolar transistors (HBTs) with the same design were grown by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD). Dc current gain values of 36 and 16 were measured for zinc and carbon-doped HBTs, respectively, and carrier lifetimes were measured by time-resolved photoluminescnce to explain the difference. Transmission line model (TLM) analysis of carb...

This work describes the comparison of the amplification characteristics (gain) and the Noise figure (NF) of the Thulium and Erbium in three different host materials which the Yttria Alumina-Silica glass, Fluoride and Tellurite fiber glass. The gain using these host materials covers the range 1.45-1.65 μm. Thulium doped fiber amplifier (TDFAs) operated in the region of wavelength (1480-1510 nm) ...

Radiation effects of photon irradiation in Ytterbium-doped silica optical fibers are still much less explored despite their importance in space-based application as radiation dosimetry. This study investigates and compares the thermoluminescence glow curve, response, linearity and sensitivity of Ytterbium-doped SiO2 optical fibers with that of TLD-100. Samples are placed in solid phantom and ir...

An Nd doped ZnO (1-5%) photocatalyst was successfully synthesized via chemical co-precipitation method. The optical property, nature, and morphology of the synthesized nanoparticles were analyzed by UV-Visible, XRD, and FESEM respectively. XRD study reveals that Nd has been effectively incorporated in the ZnO lattice in the lower level dosage; however, the crystalline nature has been distor...

Cerium oxide nanoparticles recently have received extensive attention in biomedical applications due to their excellent anti-oxidation performance. In this study, a simple, mild, and green approach was developed to synthesize cerium-doped carbonaceous nanoparticles (Ce-doped CNPs) using bio-mineralization of bull serum albumin (BSA) as precursor. The resultant Ce-doped CNPs exhibited uniform an...

abstract: electrical sensitivity of a beryllium oxide nanotube (beont) was examined toward (c5h5n) molecule by using density functional theory (dft) calculations at the b3lyp/6-31(d) level, and it was found that the adsorption energy (ead) of pyridine on the pristine nanotubes is   a bout -73.29kcal/mol. but when nanotubes has been doped with s and p atomes , the adsorption energy changed . cal...
