Pure and ZnO-doped Ni0.1Co0.9Fe2O4 catalyst were prepared by co-precipitation method and thermal decomposition in air calcinated at 400-700°C and that treated with different amounts of zinc nitrate (0.46-2.25 w% ZnO). X-ray powder diffractometry, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and BET analysis of nitrogen adsorption isotherms investigated the crystalline bulk structure and the surface area ...

N-doped ZnO thin films were deposited on n-type Si(100) and homo-buffer layer, and undoped ZnO thin film was also deposited on homo-buffer layer by RF magnetron sputtering method. After deposition, all films were in-situ annealed at 800 C for 5 minutes in ambient of O2 with pressure of 10 Torr. X-ray diffraction shows that the homobuffer layer is beneficial to the crystalline of N-doped ZnO thi...

The Impact of Co and Gd on the structural, magnetic dielectric properties ZnO nanotubes synthesized by co-precipitation is reported. results demonstrate that incorporating into diminished crystallinity while retaining optimum orientation. outcomes transmission electron microscopy scanning examined dopants had no effect morphology produced nanotubes. It was also discovered as frequency concentra...

In this research work, the production of undoped and silver (Ag) doped zinc oxide (ZnO) thin films for food packaging applications was developed. The main goal was to determine the influence of coatings morphology and thickness on the antimicrobial performance of the produced samples. The ZnO based thin films were deposited on PET (Polyethylene terephthalate) by means of DC reactive magnetron s...

Background: New treatment modali es are developed with the aim of escala ng tumor absorbed dose and simultaneously sparing the normal structures. The use of nanotechnology in cancer treatment offers some possibili es including destroying cancer tumors with minimal damage to healthy ssues. Zinc Oxide nanopar cles (ZnO NPs) are wide band gap semiconductors and seem to have a good effect on increa...

We report ferromagnetism in carbon-doped ZnO. Our first-principles calculations based on density functional theory predicted a magnetic moment of 2.02 mu(B) per carbon when carbon substitutes oxygen in ZnO, and an ferromagnetic coupling among magnetic moments of the carbon dopants. The theoretical prediction was confirmed experimentally. C-doped ZnO films deposited by pulsed-laser deposition sh...

The present paper reports facile synthesis by simple chemical precipitation method for Zinc Oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles with cerium (Ce) and nickel (Ni) co-doped ZnO nanocrystals. different optimum conditions are analyzed in dual metallic (Ce/Ni) doped nanoparticles. Successful incorporation of is predicted X-ray diffraction (XRD) photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Additionally, optical effects we...
