Structural, Dielectric and magnetic properties 0.3 CoFe2O4–0.7 BaTiO3–PVDF (polyvinylidene fluride) composite film with different concentration of PVDF: 20, 30 and 40 wt% are reported here for the first time. The structural analysis was carried out using X-Ray diffraction technique, which indicates cubic spinel structure for ferrite phase CoFe2O4 (CFO) and tetragonal structure for ferroelectric...

Glycerol mono-oleate (GMO) was produced by direct esterification reaction with amberlyst 16 resin catalysts with the efficiency of 86% and was used as a surfactant for synthesis of CoFe2O4 nano-particles by surfactant-assisted microwave method. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), X-Ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) were used to consider the structural and...

Heterointerfaces between complex oxides have sparked considerable interest due to their fascinating physical properties and their offering of new possibilities for next-generation electronic devices. The key to realize practical applications is the control through external stimuli. In this study, we take the self-assembled BiFeO3-CoFe2O4 tubular interface as a model system to demonstrate the no...

Oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) and oxygen evolution (OER) are important for developing energy systems such as fuel cells metal–air batteries. Precious metal catalysts, Pt IrO2, have been considered electrochemical catalysts because of their excellent activity the ORR OER. However, disadvantages, low durability long-term operation high price, necessitate development alternative catalysts. Trans...
