Electron Energy Loss Spectroscopy (EELS) in a transmission electron microscope offers the possibility of extracting high accuracy maps of composition and electronic properties through EELS spectrum images (EELS-SI). Acquiring EELS-SI for different tilt angles, a 3D tomographic reconstruction of EELS information can be achieved. In the present work we show that an EELS spectrum volume (EELS-SV),...

Well-defined CoFe2O4 nanoparticles embedded in amorphous SiO2 matrix have been synthesized by sol-gel method, characterized and investigated by Mössbauer spectroscopy and magnetic measurements. The mean particle size was found to increase from 3 to 15 nm by varying the temperature of a subsequent annealing from 800 to 1100 ◦C. The composites exhibited superparamagnetic behavior with the blockin...

The multifunctional (ferromagnetic and ferroelectric) response at room temperature that is elusive in single phase multiferroic materials can be achieved in a proper combination of ferroelectric perovskites and ferrimagnetic spinel oxides in horizontal heterostructures. In this work, lead-free CoFe2O4/BaTiO3 bilayers are integrated with Si(001) using LaNiO3/CeO2/YSZ as a tri-layer buffer. They ...

Magnetically recyclable direct Z-scheme CoFe2O4-loaded g-C3N4 photocatalyst material was fabricated using a facile hydrothermal technique and subsequently characterized by XRD, VSM, PL, FT-IR, EDX, DRS, SEM, BET techniques. The characterization results confirmed that nanoparticles of CoFe2O4 are loaded on the surface sheets. optical band gap has been decreased from 2.65 eV to 1.30 means loading...

The antimicrobial resistance currently impedes and threatens the future of effective prevention treatment continually expanding range infections caused by bacteria. This study aimed to identify bacterial causes wound infection among animals using antibiotic/nanoparticles mixture as a new attempt for induced in rats. For this purpose, 112 swabs cases different animal types (36 sheep, 21 goats, 1...
