A broadband metamaterial absorber (MA) composed of hexagonal-arranged single-sized titanium nitride (TiN) nano-disk array and monolayer molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) is studied using finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) simulations. The structure of TiN nano-disk array/dielectric silica (SiO2)/aluminum (Al) is adopted in our design. By optimizing the dimension parameters of the structure, an aver...

asphalt modification/reinforcement has received considerable attention as viable solutions to enhance flexible pavement performance. this is mainly prompted by the unsatisfactory performance of traditional road materials exposed to dramatic increases and changes in traffic patterns. this paper presents the evaluation of fatigue behaviour of nano reinforced stone mastic asphalt mixtures. fatigue...

Nano-SbCl5.SiO2 and SbCl5.SiO2 are bench-top catalysts which are reusable, readily available, versatile andefficient for promotion of many acid catalyzed organic reactions. These catalysts do not need specialprecautions for preparation, handling or storage, and they can be stored at an ambient temperature for monthswithout losing their catalytic activity. 4-dihydropyrimidin-2(1H)-ones(thiones) ...

nano sio2/hyperbranched polyglycerol (hpg)/so3h catalyst was readily prepared for first time from inexpensive starting materials in aqueous media which catalyzed the synthesis of benzoic acid. ftir spectra, x-ray diffraction (xrd) and transmission electron micrographs (tem) was employed to characterize the properties of the synthesized nano sio2/hpg/so3h. high catalytic activity and ease of rec...

Nano SiO2 compound with 160 m2/g specific surface area and 20 nm sizes has been irradiated continuously with neutron flux up to 20 hours in various periods in TRIGA Mark II type research reactor. The initial activities of different type radionuclides defined in the result of eight day activity analysis changes between wide range of 1,5 kBq- 1,5GBq. In the result of activity analysis carried out...

this research proposes an efficient and easy procedure for the preparation of amides or nitriles from aldehydes. such materials were prepared via one-pot three component condensation reaction of various aldehydes in the presence of nano-ticl4.sio2 as a catalyst under thermal conditions. all reactions proceeded in high yields and in a moderately short reaction time. meanwhile, oximes were obtain...

In this paper,the preparation of nano silica sol was used TEOS hydrolysis. Silica sol was used to compound the SiO2 sol / polyacrylate with acrylate monomer emulsion polymerization, the effect of sol amount and feeding methods of polyacrylate stability and other property of SiO2 / polyacrylate were studied.

A solar cell based on the n-MoS2/i-SiO2/p-Si heterojunction is fabricated. The device exhibits a high power-conversion efficiency of 4.5% due to the incorporation of a nano-scale SiO2 buffer into the MoS2/Si interface. The present device architectures are envisaged as potentially valuable candidates for high-performance photovoltaic devices.

SiO2 coated γ-Fe2O3 nanocomposite powder has been successfully synthesized by chemical vapor condensation process and its feasibility on hyperthermic application was investigated in this study. The power loss of SiO2 coated γ-Fe2O3 nanocomposite powder which means the magnetic heating effect under alternative magnetic field was much higher than the single phase γ-Fe2O3 nano powder due to the ve...
