The conducting polymer films have been widely applied in the field of electrochemistry owing to their goodstability, permselectivity, unique physical and chemical properties. A novel nano-Au/poly (4-aminobenzoicacid) (PABA) film modified carbon paste electrode was fabricated for sensitive detection of acetaminophenin this paper. The PABA film and nano-Au/PABA film were characterized by scanning...

This present work reports an ecofriendly approach for the synthesis of gold nanoparticles (Au NPs) using aqueous stem extract of Periploca aphylla as a reducing and stabilizing agent, has been discussed. This approach is simple, cost-effective and stable for a long time, reproducible at room temperature and in an eco-friendly manner to obtain a self-assembly of Au NPs. Two parameters were optim...

germanium nanowires (genws) were synthesized using chemical vapor deposition (cvd) based on vapor–liquid–solid (vls) mechanism with au nanoparticles as catalyst and germanium tetrachloride (gecl4) as a precursor of germanium. au catalysts were deposited on silicon wafer as a thin film, firstly by sputtering technique and secondly by submerging the silicon substrates in au colloidal solution, wh...

almcm-41 was applied for adsorption of methylene blue (mb) and auramine (au) in single and binary component systems. in the single component systems, almcm-41 represents higher adsorption capacity for mb than au with the maximal adsorption capacity of 2.07×10−4 and 1.15×10−4 mol/g at 25 ˚c for mb and au, respectively. in the binary component system, mb and au exhibit competitive adsorption onto...

To investigate the plasmonic effect in perovskite solar cells, the effect of depositing Au@SiO2 nanoparticles on the top and the bottom of mesoporous TiO2 layers was studied. First, Au@SiO2 nanoparticles were synthesized. The particles were then deposited at the different interfaces of mesoporous TiO2 layers. Although the two structures show approximately similar optical absorption, only cells ...

We have investigated structure and electronic properties of Au and Si liner chains using the firstprinciplesplane wave pseudopotential method. The transport properties and conductance of these twoliner chains are studied using Landauer approaches based on density functional theory (DFT). Weobtain density of states and band gap using Kohn-Sham and Wannier functions as well as quantumconductivity...

The evolution of charged-particle production in collisions of heavy ions at relativistic energies is investigated as function of centrality in a nonequilibrium-statistical framework. Precise agreement with recent d + Au and Au + Au data at √ sNN = 200 GeV is found in a Relativistic Diffusion Model with three sources for particle production. Only the midrapidity source comes very close to local ...
