Present work demonstrates a detail simulation results on enhanced generation of localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) field condition in a periodically varying height metal nanopillars. This simulation work has been carried out using COMSOL Multiphysics software. LSPR field condition study in metal nanostructure is important for different fields of applications which include chemical and b...

Theoretical analysis and Computer simulations have proven to be cost-effective and powerful tools in scientific studies of materials, particularly at nano-scale where synthesis of nano-structures, interpretation of their observed character and exploration of new structures are not always straight forward. We present here fundamental principles of techniques used today for computational simulati...

nano-structured lanthanum strontium cobalt ferrite, la0.6sr0.4co0.2fe0.8o3 (lscf), was successfully synthesized via co-precipitation method using metal nitrates as starting materials. effects of precipitating agent and calcination temperature on the phase composition and morphology of synthesized powders were systematically studied using x-ray diffraction (xrd) and field emission scanning elect...

Serious cases of corrosion of metallic structures under both alternating current (ac) and cathodic protection (cp) have been reported. The objective of this research is to propose a mechanism by which ac affects the nano sized/structured surface films formed on metals under cp. A model will be proposed and experimentally validated, in order to relate the metal corrosiveness to its nano sized/st...

Background: A key element for long-term success of dental implants is integration of the implant surface with the surrounding host tissues. Modification of titanium implant surfaces can enhance osteoblast activity but their effects on soft-tissue cells are unclear. Adherence of human keratinocytes and gingival fibroblasts to control commercially pure titanium (CpTi) and two surfaces prepared by...

The research investigates synthesized Nano-structured PbO2 using ball milling. The structure and morphology of the samples were determined in the process of milling by means of XRD and SEM. The size of particles was estimated through DLS analysis. The TEM image of the synthesized powder verifies the achievement of Nano dimensions. Design and analyses of the results using Taguchi methodology rev...

In this work, we investigate the effect of broadband antireflection of a medium by a layer of embedded nano-cavities arranged near the surface. It is shown that this structure is versatile and allows near 100% transmittance in a wide spectral range practically for any dielectric material. The approximate model of nano-structured layer is suggested that allows to determine the parameters of the ...
