the behavior of nanoscale energetic materials is quite different from micronsized energetic materials inmany ways. recently, some techniques such as sol-gel method, high speed air impaction and vacuum codeposition have been employed to obtain nanoscale energetic materials. however, only few attentionswere paid to nanoscale energetic materials because of the fabrication difficulty. in this paper...

Most of the existing exposure models for engineered nanomaterials (ENMs) do not consider particle size, crystalline forms, and coating materials that all may influence material’s fate, transport, toxicity. Our work aimed to incorporate size distributions into a material flow analysis (MFA) develop size-specific, dynamic, probabilistic MFA model (ss-DPMFA). Using titanium dioxide (TiO2) as first...

In medicine, the application of nanotechnology is related to use nanoscale materials improve and develop new diagnostic therapeutic methods. Due unique physicochemical optical characteristics titanium dioxide nanoparticles (TiO2 NPs), such as high biocompatibility, surface properties, relative stability, they have been widely investigated for medical purposes, particularly a theranostic agent i...

Nanoscale gold−titania (Au/TiO2) catalysts may provide the right combination of electronic structure, structural dynamics, and stability to facilitate wide ranging chemical transformations, including reactions for utilization of renewable energy sources. The Au/TiO2based systems have also emerged as promising photocatalysts capable of promoting light-induced production of hydrogen and other ren...

This study aims to contribute the burgeoning field of brain-inspired computing by expanding it beyond conventional fabrication methods. Herein, obstacles toward effective inkjet printing process are encountered and electrical characteristics explored, providing new insights into reliability aspects fully printed Ag/a-TiO2/Ag electronic synapses. The versatility approach is further enhanced high...

Nanosized semiconductors and metals [1, 2] are extensively studied due to their unusual catalytic and opto-electronic properties, ultimately traceable to the large fraction of atoms residing at the surface compared to the bulk, and to confinement of charge carriers inside a small volume of material. At present, major goals in modern material chemistry are represented by the ability to design, f...

TixSi1-xO2 thin films appear as promising materials to replace SiO2 for DRAM devices. For the effective down scaling, these mixed oxides should combine best properties from (low leakage current) and TiO2 (high dielectric constant). In this study, were deposited by low pressure PECVD. Varying Titanium Tetra-Isopropoxide (TTIP) Hexamethyldisiloxane (HMDSO) precursors flow rate allows us obtain na...
