This study synthesized pristine and aluminum (Al)-doped zinc oxide (Al:ZnO) nanostructures through a simplistic low-temperature ultrasonicated solution immersion method. Al:ZnO were as sensing material using different times varying from two to five hours. The nanostructured-based flexible humidity sensor was fabricated by employing cellulose filter paper substrate transparent glue binder brush ...

Dopants are regularly used in sol-gel and powder metallurgy routes, however, the controlled insertion of such is quite challenging, especially case nanostructures. Here we investigate use atomic layer deposition (ALD) as a potential technique to precisely introduce aluminum oxide dopant or second phase into zirconia 3D macroporous The results show that introduction high Al2O3 contents nanostruc...

Studying the properties of structures where at least one spatial dimension is on the nanometer scale is motivated by many factors from engineering (such as the semiconductor industry’s push towards higher density integrated circuits), chemistry (developing methods to produce particles of well controlled size and structure), biology (using DNA to control the self-assembly of small structures) an...

The paper describes a method developed in National Research Centre "Kurchatov Institute" for creating different functional nanostructures using ion beam irradiation. As an example, the formation of integrated resistive elements low-temperature NbN superconductor nanowire is demonstrated. possibility producing insulating layer aluminum oxide with thickness 15 nm on surface at room temperature un...
