Using Cd(NO(3))(2)·4H(2)O as a precursor and ethanol/water as the solvent, we synthesized Cd(5)(OH)(8)(NO(3))(2)(H(2)O)(2) nanowires and nanobelts through a simple solvothermal method. Unlike the conventional oil-water surfactant approach, the adopted method is biologically safe, simple and environmentally benign. The morphology and size of the obtained materials were studied by FESEM. The resu...

Dividing the total portfolio (parent) into non-overlapping sub-portfolios (children), and assuming homogeneity for both the parent and the children, we use a top-down dynamic default intensity model for the parent, and specify the conditional probability of default in the children given imminent default in the parent. We consider two fundamental cases which are building blocks of more complex a...

Semiconductor nanoparticles are studied worldwide at present because of their good optical, physical and chemical properties. In this research work, a set of Zn doped cadmium oxide (Cd1-xZnxO1-δ) nanoparticles were synthesized by simple chemical precipitation route. The precursor materials used in this research work were cadmium nitrate and zinc nitrate (as basic materials) and sodium hydroxide...

The novel zeolite AgX/CdO NPs composite catalyst has been fabricated under an ultrasound assisted dispersion route and identified by various analysis including FTIR, XRD, FESEM-EDAX, AFM, TEM, and EDAX-Dot mapping. Afterwards, for the first time, the zeolite AgX/CdO NPs composite has been exerted for the effective removal (adsorption and degradation) of fenitrothion (FN, O,O-dimethyl-O-(3-methy...

A combined experimental and theoretical/band structure investigation is reported of Ga-doped CdO (CGO) and In-doped CdO (CIO) thin films grown on both amorphous glass and single-crystal MgO(100) substrates at 410 °C by metal–organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD). Film phase structure, microstructure, and electrical and optical properties are systematically investigated as a function of dopi...
