In the present work, Bi2S3 nanostructures have been synthesized with the aid of thioglycollic acid (TGA) a solvent, capping agent, and sulfide source in the presence of ultrasonic method. The as-synthesized products were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Energy Dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), scanning electron microscope (SEM), and photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy. The band gap ...

The study of asymmetrical patterns of the light diffracted by ultrasonic waves has been utilized in the last decades to investigate ultrasonic wave distortions caused by the nonlinearity of the medium. In contrast to the investigation of diffraction patterns in space, a novel optical method is proposed in this work to analyze, in the frequency domain, the phase modulation (related to the Raman-...

A large, flat ultrasonic transmitter and a small receiver are developed for studies of material properties in acoustic transmission goniometry. While the character of the wave field produced by the transmitter can be considered as a plane wave as observed by the receiver, diffraction effects are noticeable near critical angles and result in the appearance of weak but detectable arrivals. Transm...

The aim of quantitative echography is to provide numerical estimates of biological tissue parameters, such as attenuation, scattering strength, sound velocity, which can be clinically significant. In this domain, it has become clear that a careful modelling of the echogram formation process is necessary because, as the probing ultrasonic pulse propagates and interacts with biological structures...

The sonocatalytic degradation of organic dyes (C.I. 50040, C.I. Reactive Red 1, C.I. Acid Orange 7) catalysed by Co/N/Er3+ : Y3Al5O12/TiO2 films was studied. For the preparation of Co/N/Er3+ : Y3Al5O12/TiO2 films, the sol-gel coating process was used. The phase composition, morphology, precursor at different temperatures and emitting light properties of the calcined powders were analysed by X-r...
