Nanostructured ZnO thin films have been deposited using a successive chemical solution deposi method. The structural, morphological, electrical and sensing properties of the films were studied different concentrations of Al-dopant and were analyzed as a function of rapid photothermal proces temperatures. The films were investigated by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, en dispersi...

Nanostructured radar absorbing materials (RAMs) have received steadily growing interest because of their fascinating properties and various applications compared with the bulk or micronized counterparts. These nanostructured materials have increased surface area, number of dangling bond atoms and unsaturated co -ordination on surface lead to interface polarization, multiple scatter and absorbin...

Electric double layer lies in the heart of modern day electrochemical energy storage devices like batteries, fuel cells, supercapacitors and water filtration membranes. The advent of nanostructured rough and porous electrodes has open new possibilities and new challenges. This review summarizes the theoretical development in the electric double layer theory on porous and rough electrodes. Both ...

: In this work, we have proposed a concept for the generation of three-dimensional (3D) nanostructured metal alloys of immiscible materials induced by megahertz-frequency ultrafast laser pulses. A mixture of two microparticle materials (aluminum and nickel oxide) and nickel oxide microparticles coated onto an aluminum foil have been used in this study. After laser irradiation, three different t...

BACKGROUND AND AIMS Carbon-based nanomaterials such as carbon nanotubes, graphene oxide and graphene have been explored by researchers as well as the industry. Graphene is a new nanomaterial which has commercial and scientific advantages. Laser therapy has proven highly useful in biomedicine, with the use of different laser types and energies for distinct purposes. The low level laser therapy (...

UNLABELLED Hierarchically nanosized hydroxyapatite (HA) with flower-like structure assembled from nanosheets consisting of nanorod building blocks was successfully synthesized by using CaCl(2), NaH(2)PO(4), and potassium sodium tartrate via a hydrothermal method at 200°C for 24 hours. The effects of heating time and heating temperature on the products were investigated. As a chelating ligand an...

This paper describes the morphology, stoichiometry, microstructure and gas sensing properties of nano clustered SnOx thin films prepared by Sn evaporation followed by the Rheotaxial Growth and Thermal Oxidation (RGTO) process. Electron microscopy was used to investigate, in detail, the evolution of the films as the oxidation temperature was increased. The results showed that the contact angle, ...
