Hydrogel has been regarded as one significant biomaterial in biomedical and tissue engineering due to its high biocompatibility. This paper proposes a novel method to pattern calcium alginate hydrogel in a 3D way via electrodeposition process based on a piece of paper. Firstly, one insulating paper with patterned holes is placed on one indium tin oxide (ITO) glass surface, which is put below an...

This paper reports the effect of precursor concentration, growth temperature, and growth time on the size and density of ZnO nanowire arrays (ZNAs). The well-aligned ZNAs were grown on indium tin oxide substrate using a facile chemical bath deposition method. The results showed that the ZnO nanowires could be tailored to the desired sizes with a simple variation of the growth parameters. Optica...

A method for the determination of the oxygen content in magnesium and magnesium alloys has been developed. Inert gas fusion-infrared absorptiometry was modified by introducing a multistep heating process; a sample containing oxygen is fused with tin to form an eutectic mixture at 900°C in a graphite crucible, followed by a subsequent gradual temperature increase of up to 2000°C, which enables t...

Tin was deposited in the amount of 0.4 and 0.8 nm onto CeO2(111) surface by molecular beam deposition at the temperature of 520 K. The interaction of tin with cerium oxide was studied with use of XPS, UPS and RPES (Resonant Photoelectron Spectroscopy). The strong tin – ceria interaction led to the Ce(4-nx)+Snxn+O22compound formation. It was accompanied with partial reduction of CeO2 observed as...

Tin-Oxide Perovskites In article number 2200964, Non Thongprong, Thidarat Supasai, Nopporn Rujisamphan, and co-workers presented the pseudohalide salt of sodium tetrafluoroborate, whose anions have a higher electronegativity than other halide salts, with potential to passivate surface tin oxide while enhancing optoelectronic properties perovskite film. The current study presents facile effectiv...

The Tin based herbal drug (Vangaparpam a Siddha system of Medicine) has been widely used for the treatment of urinogenital infection and Arthritis. It was prepared by ten sequential stages of calcinations of the medicinally purified tin along with Aloe vera extract. In this study we analysed samples from various stages of preparation using analytical techniques viz., Fourier Transformed Infrare...

Epitaxial indium tin oxide films have been grown on both LaAlO3 and yttria-stabilized zirconia substrates using RF magnetron sputtering. Electrolyte gating causes a large change in the film resistance that occurs immediately after the gate voltage is applied, and shows no hysteresis during the charging/discharging processes. When two devices are patterned next to one another and the first one g...

The use of self-lubricating titanium nitride and silver (TiN(Ag)) nanocomposite coatings is a promising way to reduce the wear tools employed dry machining operations for hard-to-cut materials/alloys. To achieve an optimal performance, Ag diffusion within matrix needs be carefully controlled, its mechanisms clearly understood. In this paper we density functional theory calculations investigate ...
