Tellurium nanostructures have been prepared by physical vapor deposition method in a tube furnace. The experiments were carried out under argon gas flow at a pressure of 1 mbar. Tellurium powder was evaporated by heating at 350°C and 430°C and was condensed on substrates at 110–250°C, in the downstream of argon gas flow. The products were characterized by field emission scanning electron micros...

the preparation of nano-sized tio2 by titanium tetraisopropoxide (ti(oipr)4) via sol-gelmethod using acid as a catalyst is investigated and the optimized conditions concerning theproportional amount of acid, water, alcohol is established by xrd and sem. the effect ofcalcination temperature on phase transformation of tio2 (rutile, anatase and brookite) wasdetermined by xrd. the smallest grain si...

in this study, a feasible green method for the synthesis of copper oxide nanocrystalline is described by using sour cherry juice which has a significant effect on crystalline size, and morphology. the benefits of the green method, not only nanometer scale are formed but also low-cost method are obtained in a normal atmosphere which it has been used (ch3coo)2cu.h2o individually as cu sources. al...

A new semiorganic nonlinear optical single crystal of Imidazole Potassium Chloride (IPC) has been grown successfully by slow evaporation method. Colourless, transparent IPC crystal of dimension 5 x 5 x 2 mm has been grown within a period of 21 days. The grown crystal was subjected to single crystal X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis to determine the lattice parameters. The powder X-ray diffractio...

Cesium molybdates with general formula CsM(MoO4)2, where M = Bi, Dy, Pr, Er, exhibit rich polymorphism, and crystallize in a layered structure. These properties cause intensive studies on cesium molybdates. CsBi(MoO4)2 was synthesized by microwave method by using cerium sulphate, bismuth oxide and molybdenum (VI) oxide in an appropriate molar ratio. Characterizations were done by x-ray diffract...

The first laboratory synthesis of hard materials such as diamond proceeded to attack of developing materials with high hardness to compete diamond. Boron rich solids are good candidates owing to their short interatomic bond lengths and strong covalent character. Boron containing hard material was synthesized by modifiedmicrowave method under nitrogen atmosphere by using a fuel (glycine or urea)...

CuInSe2 nanoparticles have been prepared by reacting cuprous chloride, indium chloride with alcohol and selenium powder. The nanoparticles were characterized by TEM, XRD, ICP-OES and SEM. The formation of CuInSe2 nanoparticles with different precursor ratios was investigated by in-situ high temperature X-ray diffraction analysis. It was found that the growth of CIS followed a vapor-liquid-solid...

Several techniques have been utilized for the preparation of hydroxyapatite (HA) and other calcium phosphates for the development of biomaterials. It is vital to know the reaction kinetics to be able to control the material obtained by the aqueous solution route. In the present work, HA has been produced by different wet precipitation processes and different experimental conditions. Calcium hyd...

in this research calcium fluoride nanoparticles and its different amount of cerium ion dopant (5%and 10%) were prepared. the mentioned nanoparticle were studied by fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ftir) , x-ray diffraction (xrd), absorption and photoluminescence spectra (pl) and scanning electron microscopy (sem). the xrd patterns indicate a typical cubic fluorite structure and no other...

background: an early diagnosis of breast cancer relates directly to an accurate treatment plan and strategy. early detection of breast cancer before its development would be a significant reduction of morbidity and mortality rates. the aim of this preliminary study is to investigate the sensitivity of wide angle x-ray diffraction (waxrd) method on women hair samples of healthy and breast cancer...
