The molecular structure and conformational properties of 2,2,2-trichloroethyl chloroformate, ClC(O)OCH2CCl3 were determined experimentally using gas-phase electron diffraction (GED) and theoretically based on quantum-chemical calculations at the MP2 and DFT levels of theory. Further experimental measurements such as UV-visible, IR and Raman spectroscopy were complemented with the corresponding ...

In the present work, we have investigated synthesis of cerium oxide nanoparticles (CeO2 NPs) using Curvularia lunata culture filtrate. The synthesized CeO2 NPs were characterized by TG/DTA, XRD, Raman, PL, FTIR, UV-visible spectroscopy and TEM analyses. The synthesized nanoparticles retained the cubic structure, which was confirmed by X-ray diffraction studies. UV-visible spectrum exhibited a w...

ZnO/ PEG Nanocomposite material is synthesized by laser ablation of pure Zn target in the mix solution of PEG and of water in different compositions. Synthesized Nanocomposite materials are characterized by using UV-visible absorption, Transmission electron microscope (TEM) and Photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopic techniques. TEM investigation illustrates synthesis of few 2-5 nm quantum dots wi...

We measured firstand second-order Raman scattering in cubic and hexagonal boron nitride using excitation energies in the visible and in the UV. The nonresonant first-order Raman susceptibilities for cubic and hexagonal BN are 1 and 10 Å2, respectively. Raman scattering is thus very powerful in detecting the hexagonal phase in mixed thin boron nitride films. In cubic BN the constant Raman sucsep...

MWCNTs/TiO2 nanocomposite was prepared by oxidising MWCNT in H2SO4/HNO3 then decorating it with TiO2-p25 nanopowder. The composites were characterised using XRD, TEM, FT-IR PL and UV-vis spectroscopy. The TEM images have shown TiO2 nanoparticles immobilised onto the sidewalls of the MWCNTs. The UV-vis spectrum confirms that the nanocomposites can significantly absorb more light in the visible r...

Different samples of ZnS nanoparticals were synthesized by chemical co-precipitation method at room temperature using zincsulphate as zinc source and sodium sulphide as sulphur source. Structural properties of synthesized ZnS nanoparticles were studied by X-ray diffraction pattern (XRD) while optical properties were examined by UV-Visible absorption spectroscopy. XRD pattern showed the as synth...

In this paper, a new cost-effective multispectral photodetector (PD) based on amorphous-silicon (a-Si)/titanium (Ti) multilayer structure, which achieves high UV-Visible-NIR photoresponse is elaborated. A design strategy combining FDTD (Finite Difference Time Domain) with GA (Genetic Algorithm) was used to determinate the a-Si/Ti geometry providing highest photoresponsivity in UV, Visible and N...

The main purpose of this paper is to detemine the fine spectrum of the generalized difference operator Delta_{uv} over the sequence space c0. These results are more general than the fine spectrum of the generalized difference operator Delta_{uv} of Srivastava and Kumar.

We develop and demonstrate high-quality white light generation that relies on the use of a single-type simple conjugated polymer of polyfluorene functionalized with azide groups (PFA) integrated on a near-UV LED platform. The high-quality white emission from the polyfluorene is achieved by using the azide functionalization to facilitate cross-linking intentionally when cast into solid-state for...
