gas sensitive metal oxide layers used in fabrication of resistive gas sensors are prepared by different deposition techniques. the technical data reported on some basic and practically important specifications of these devices, although fabricated based on the same gas sensitive oxide, are anomalously different. the influence of the fabrication technique used for the deposition of the gas sensi...

double layer zno/sno2 thin film resistive gas sensors were fabricated by successive pvd of those oxides onto porcelain substrates. the metallic contacts were provided by electron beam evaporation of platinum onto substrates prior to deposition of the gas sensitive layers. deposits were thermally annealed at different temperatures. it was shown that the activation energy of electrical conduction...

introduction: ferric sulfate pulpotomy is a safe and effective method of the pulpotomy of primary teeth. but the results of different studies indicate low success rate of ferric sulfate pulpotomy in comparison to formocresol pulpotomy and a portion of these failures may be related to stimulating and harmful effects of zinc oxide eugenol paste. the aim of this study was to determine and compare ...

Semiconductor nanocrystals (NCs) or quantum dots (QDs) show great promise for use in QD-LED (quantum dot lightemitting device) displays, owing to their unique optical properties and the continual development of new core and core–shell structures to meet specific color needs. This in combination with the recent development of more efficient and saturated QD-LEDs as well as new QD-LED fabrication...

the use of an inorganic phase in water-in-oil (w/o) microemulsion has recently received considerable attention for preparing metal oxide nanoparticles. this is a technique, which allows preparation of ultrafine metal oxide nanoparticles within the size range 40 to 80 nm. preparation of nano chromium (iii) oxide studied investigated in the inverse microemulsion system. therefore the nucleation o...

pure and antimony doped sno2 thin films have been prepared by the sol-gel dip coating technique on glass substrate using starting material sncl2.2h2o as a host and sbcl3 as a dopant. our experimental results revealed that, the quality of the coated films on the glass depends on process parameters. the effect of annealing temperature, dipping numbers and the dopant concentration on the structura...

elastomer compound based on nr/br was prepared using different kinds of nano-zno and zno. the effect of zinc oxide as an activator of sulfur cure on the mechanical and morphological properties of the compound was studied. the result of the mechanical properties showed that the tensile strength, elongation-at-break, resilience, and abrasion resistance of the compound prepared by zno (4 phr) are ...

endo-derived nitric oxide (no) is synthesized from l-arginine by endothelium nitric oxide synthase (enos). since reduced no synthesis has been implicated in the development of coronary atherosclerosis; we hypothesized that polymorphisms of nos gene might be associated with increased susceptibility to this disorder and coronary artery disease (cad). we studied the 27 base pair tandem repeat poly...

We present a general study on a high performance supercapacitor based on intercalated reduced graphene oxide with carbon black nanoparticles. Graphene oxide sheets were synthesized by oxidation and exfoliation of natural graphite and were reduced using hydroiodic acid in the presence of carbon black nanoparticles. Graphene paper was fabricated by one-step procedure via simultaneous reducing and...
