in this study, b12n12 nano ring has been selected because it consist of four 6-side rings and polar bonds b-n which in comparison with non-polar bonds c-c, is more suitable for the study of the absorption of other compounds. so reactivity and stability of benzene alone and in the presence b12n12 nano ring field checked. to determine the non-bonded interaction energies between benzene and b12n12...

A twin system for hydrogen-isotope absorption experiments has been constructed to replicate the phenomenon of heat and He generation during D2 gas absorption in nano-sized Pd powders reported by Arata and Zhang, and to investigate the underlying physics. For PdZr oxide nano-powders, anomalously large energies of hydrogen isotope absorption, 2.4 0.2 eV/D-atom and 1.8 0.4 eV/H-atom, as well as...

in this paper, nano fibers (engelhard corporation titanosilicate number 10 / polyacrylonitrile) ets-10 / pan, as a composite exchanger to absorb heavy metals, were synthesized and optimized. several parameters were affected on this absorption. results show that the optimization sizes of the nano fibers are about 75 nanometers. structures were analyzed by scanning electron microscope (sem) and e...

in this research fe-tio2 nanocomposites with different molar ratios of fe/ti were prepared as nano-photocatalyst using a modified sol-gel process at ambient temperature. crystallographic properties of nanocomposites were characterized by x-ray diffraction (xrd). surface morphology and mean particle size of nanocomposites were specified by field emission scanning electron microscopy (fesem) and ...

A novel plasma-electrolysis method is introduced to synthesize high-quality TiO(2) nano/microspheres that exhibited excellent optical absorption covering the range from ultraviolet to infra-red. Both experimental and theoretical results show that the oxygen vacancies in the TiO(2) spheres are primarily responsible for this wide absorption.

in this study, for increasing absorption of the active layer in bulk hetero junction (bhj) organic solar cells (oscs) we used surface plasmon effects of metal nano particles (mnps). we embedded the mnps inside the active layer and studied the device structure. for shown the results we investigated the model of our structure with finite difference time domain (fdtd) numerical method and achieved...

We present an overview of recent results obtained in nano-dispersed nonlinear neat organic liquids and liquid crystals. Experimental observations confirm the enhancement of nonlinear absorption in gold nano-spheres doped neat nonlinear liquids and extension of the bandwidth of efficient all-optical switching operation for visible-near infrared lasers in time scales ranging from sub-picoseconds ...

An extraordinary light harvesting property of a periodic nano-pyramid array is reported. It is found that the nano-pyramid array can absorb light efficiently with an average absorptivity of 0.998 over the whole visible waveband. The ultra-high absorption is independent of the incoming light on polarization state and insensitive within a broad angle range. We attribute the efficient light harves...

The objective of this study was to quantify the influence of zinc oxide nanoparticles (nanoZnO) on the water repellency and dimensional stability of beech wood. Beech wood blocks were treated with a nano-ZnO solution at four treatment levels (0, 10,000, 20,000, and 40,000 ppm) using a modified dip method. Also, a thermal treatment was performed at 60 and 120°C. After conditioning the samples, w...
