Hybrid polyaniline (PANI) based composites incorporating zinc sulfide (ZnS) nanoparticles (NPs) have been synthesized by using chemical oxidation technique. Schottky junction is constructed by depositing Polyaniline-zinc sulfide nanocomposite (PANI-ZnS NCs) on Au electrode. The results were compared with pure polyaniline. The I–V characteristics of the PANI-ZnS NCs hete...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Zonisamide (ZNS) is one of new antiepileptic drug, which is known to inhibit seizure through multiple mechanisms of action. In Korea, ZNS was approved as an antiepileptic drug in 1992 and has been used for epilepsy patients with partial and generalized seizures. The objective of this study was to investigate the efficacy and tolerability of ZNS in patients with epilepsy a...

We successfully prepared Au-nanoparticle-decorated ZnS (ZnS-Au) spheres by sputtering Au ultrathin films on surfaces of hydrothermally synthesized ZnS spheres and subsequently postannealed the samples in a high-vacuum atmosphere. The Au nanoparticles were distributed on ZnS surfaces without substantial aggregation. The Au nanoparticle diameter range was 5 to 10 nm. Structural information showed...

Vertically aligned ZnO-ZnS heterojunction nanowire (NW) arrays were synthesized by thermal evaporation in a tube furnace under controlled conditions. Both ZnO and ZnS are of wurtzite structure, and the axial heterojunctions are formed by epitaxial growth of ZnO on ZnS with an orientation relationship of [0001](ZnO)//[0001](ZnS). Vertical ZnS NW arrays have been obtained by selectively etching Z...

Mesoporous ZnS-NiS composites are prepared via ion- exchange reactions using ZnS as the precursor. The prepared mesoporous ZnS-NiS composite materials have large surface areas (137.9 m(2) g(-1)) compared with the ZnS precursor. More importantly, the application of these mesoporous ZnS-NiS composites as nonenzymatic glucose sensors was successfully explored. Electrochemical sensors based on meso...

ZnO-ZnS core-shell nanorods are synthesized by combining the hydrothermal method and vacuum sputtering. The core-shell nanorods with variable ZnS shell thickness (7-46 nm) are synthesized by varying ZnS sputtering duration. Structural analyses demonstrated that the as-grown ZnS shell layers are well crystallized with preferring growth direction of ZnS (002). The sputtering-assisted synthesized ...

Biological synthesis of zinc sulfide (ZnS) nanoparticles (NPs) was prepared by a simple co-precipitation method using methanol plant extracts of Tridax procumbens, Phyllanthusniruri, and Syzygium aromaticum. The as-prepared ZnS NPs was examined by several physiochemical techniques such as X-Ray Powder Diffraction (XRD), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), UV-Visible spectroscopy, Fourier Transf...

To clarify the effects of background factors such as body weight, combination drug therapy with phenobarbital (PB) and potassium bromide (KBr), age, gender, neuter status, and blood collection time on the serum concentrations of zonisamide (ZNS) in 94 epileptic dogs, serum ZNS concentrations of 141 samples from 94 epileptic dogs were measured by high-performance liquid chromatography with UV de...

The results of ZnS photodeposition from aqueous ZnS colloid solutions by KrF laser irradiation at 248 nm are given. In this process, the photoexcitation of ZnS colloid particles initiates complex redox processes, resulting in simultaneous ZnS thin film photodeposition and Zn particle precipitation in the bulk of the reaction cell. The zinc-based layers, which were deposited onto quartz substrat...

In this research, the lifetime of green organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs) is studied using four passivation layers. To encapsulate the OLEDs, MgF2, YF3, composed of alternating MgF2/ZnS and YF3/ZnS layers were grown by thermal vacuum deposition. Measurements show that the device lifetime is significantly improved by using YF3 and ZnS as passivation layers. However, diodes encapsulated by Mg...
