Hydroxyapatite (HA) nano-rods with uniform morphology and controllable size have been successfully synthesized in the presence of cationic and non-ionic surfactants by a hydrothermal method. (NH4) 2HPO4 and Ca(NO 3)2.4H2O were used as the phosphorus and calcium sources, respectively. The composition of synthesized powders w...

background: chitosan nanoparticles have become of great interest for nanomedicine, biomedical engineering and development of new therapeutic drug release systems with improved bioavailability, increased specificity and sensitivity, and reduced pharmacological toxicity. the aim of the present study is to synthesis and optimization of chitosan nanoparticles for industrial and biomedical applicati...

It is demonstrated analytically that the spectrum of small-amplitude spatially uniform magnetization excitations in an in-plane magnetized magnetic pillar with two ferromagnetic layers coupled by dipole-dipole interaction can be approximately described by the traditional Kittel formula with reduced saturation magnetization and effective anisotropy field. The spectrum consists of a quasi-symmetr...

In this work we present the analysis, on a dynamic processor allocation environment, of four scheduling algorithms running on top of the nano-threads programming model. Three of them are well-known: uniform-sized chunking, guided self-scheduling and trapezoid self-scheduling. The fourth is our proposal: adaptable size chunking. In that environment, applications are automatically decomposed into...

We report on studies of field-effect transistor (FET) and transparent thin-film transistor (TFT) devices based on lightly Ta-doped SnO2 nano-wires. The nanowire-based devices exhibit uniform characteristics with average field-effect mobilities exceeding 100 cm2/V x s. Prototype nano-wire-based TFT (NW-TFT) devices on glass substrates showed excellent optical transparency and transistor performa...

Starting from Ni-Co-Mn carbonate nanoparticles prepared by microreaction technology, uniform spherical particles of Ni1/3Co1/3Mn1/3CO3 with a size of 3–4 μm were obtained by a controllable hydrothermal conversion with the addition of (NH4)2CO3. Based on characterizations on the evolution of morphology and composition with hydrothermal treatment time, we clarified the mechanism of this novel met...

Supramolecular assembly is a powerful strategy used by nature to build nanoscale architectures with predefined sizes and shapes. With synthetic systems, however, numerous challenges remain to be solved before precise control over the synthesis, folding and assembly of rationally designed three-dimensional nano-objects made of RNA can be achieved. Here, using the transfer RNA molecule as a struc...

From a nano electronic circuit designer’s point of view the growth of ultrathin film in the ultra high vacuum chamber (UHVC) would imply better stainless steel structure. ZAF method and SEM (scanning Electron Microscopy) technique are used to realize surface nano crystallizafion on an stailness steel sample. The as-welded condition of UHVC is also studied to see if this chamber can prevent weld...
