Metallic and bi-metallic Janus nanofibers: electrical and self-propulsion properties

Electrical and Magnetic Properties of Metallic Glasses during Tensile Deformation

The electrical resistance and the magnetization work of Co-based amorphous alloys have been measured during tensile test up to fracture. The magnetization work-strain curve exhibits a magnetic hardening in three stage. Stage I1 is attributed to a local martensitic-like transformation.

Morphology and electrical resistivity of metallic nanostructures

The electrical resistivity r of Au, Al and Cu films prepared by thermal evaporation with thickness range from 3 to 100 nm on glass substrates were studied. The r value was measured and theoretically evaluated by the Fuchs–Sondheimer (F–S), the Mayadas–Shatzkes (M–S), and the combined models. Measured r values in Al films were about seven times minor than for Au and Cu films for the minimum (3 n...

Electrospun Metallic Nanofibers Fabricated by Electrospinning and Metallization

Effects of Laser Annealing Parameters on Optical and Electrical Properties of ITO/Metallic Glass Alloy Bi-layer Films

AgAlMg (AAM) films with three different atomic percentage compositions are prepared, namely, Ag12Al62Mg26 (denoted as A1AM), Ag22Al46Mg32 (denoted as A2AM), and Ag36Al25Mg39 (denoted as A3AM). In addition, the AAM films are deposited with four different thicknesses, i.e., 3, 6, 9, and 12 nm. The indium-tin oxide thickness is assigned a constant value of 30 nm in every case. The results show tha...

Antibacterial properties and toxicity from metallic nanomaterials

The era of antibiotic resistance is a cause of increasing concern as bacteria continue to develop adaptive countermeasures against current antibiotics at an alarming rate. In recent years, studies have reported nanoparticles as a promising alternative to antibacterial reagents because of their exhibited antibacterial activity in several biomedical applications, including drug and gene delivery,...
