A novel zinc oxide - agar nanocomposite was successfully synthesized using zinc chloride as a precursor. The nanocomposite was prepared using a domestic microwave oven. The prepared nanocomposites have been characterized by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and UV- visible spectroscopy. The crystalline properties...

modified bubble column extraction with ultrasonic bath (bce-ub) method was used to extract atropine from the stem and leaves of atropa belladonna. optimum condition were obtained with kamada solvent which was chloroform-methanol-ammonia 15:15:1(v/v/v) as extraction solvent, the particle size of  less than  350 µm, an extraction time of 23.95 min, a liquor to material ratio of 15.08 ml/g and  an...

Graphene oxide (GO) thin films were simply deposited on fluorine doped tin oxide (FTO) substrate via a low-voltage electrodeposition. The GO and GO thin films were characterized by Zeta Potential, X-ray diffraction, Ultraviolet-Visible spectroscopy, atomic force microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, field emission scanning electron microscopy and energy dispersive X-ray spectrosc...

Since first becoming available for astronomical research in the early 1980s, charge-coupleddevice (CCD) spectrographs have had a profound impact on our ability to measure the spectralreflectance properties of asteroids. High signal-to-noise, low-resolution spectra, covering the visible-wavelength region from 0.4 to 1.0 μm, are now routinely obtained for asteroids much fainter than were measured...

BiVO₄/Mn1-xZnxFe₂O₄ was prepared by the impregnation roasting method. XRD (X-ray Diffractometer) tests showed that the prepared BiVO₄ is monoclinic crystal, and the introduction of Mn1-xZnxFe₂O₄ does not change the crystal structure of BiVO₄. The introduction of a soft-magnetic material, Mn1-xZnxFe₂O₄, was beneficial to the composite photocatalyst's separation from the liquid solution using an ...

bacteriorhodopsin (br) is the light harvesting and photoactive proton pump found in the membrane of a salt marsh bacteria. this protein has significant potential to use in optical computing and memory devices due to unique intrinsic physical properties of photo and bioelectric. all these features make br one of the most promising protein candidates in protein memories. protein memory is a kind ...

In this research, N-doped TiO2 (N/TiO2) nanoparticles have been synthesized by a sol-gel method. N/TiO2 nanoparticle has been coated with Ag metal by photochemical method. Triethylamine, N(CH3CH2)3, have been used as precursors of Nitrogen, titanium tetraiso-propoxide (TTIP), Ti[OCH(CH3)2]4, used as precursors of titanium and Ag(NO3)2 used as precursors of Silver in synthesis of these nanoparti...
