stable homogeneous dispersions of carbon nanotubes (cnts) were prepared using ethanol as dispersing agent. then, using sol-gel method, dispersion in the hydroxyapatite matrix and its effects on the microstructure were investigated. the phase composition, chemical structure and morphological and size analyses were performed using xrd, ft-ir, sem, tem/saed/edx and raman spectroscopy. the influenc...

In this letter, we report on the obtention of hafnium oxide (HfO(2)) nanostructures by the microwave-hydrothermal method. These nanostructures were analyzed by X-ray diffraction (XRD), field-emission gum scanning electron microscopy (FEG-SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectrometry (EDXS), ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis) spectroscopy, and photoluminescence (PL...

A systematic study of the attenuation electromagnetic radiation in Nuclear Track Detectors (NTDs) is carried out. The gamma-ray, X-ray, UV, visible, and infrared NTDs are investigated using NaI(Tl) detector, Gas Electron Multiplier (GEM) UV-Vis spectrophotometer, FTIR spectrophotometer respectively. values some important parameters (e.g., optical depth, coefficient, etc.) three commercially ava...

Highly oriented and transparent ZnO thin films have been fabricated on ultrasonically cleaned quartz substrates by the sol-gel technique. X-ray diffraction, UV-VIS, FTIR, photoluminescence and SEM are used to characterize ZnO thin films. X-ray diffraction study show that all the films prepared in this work have hexagonal wurtzite structure, with lattice constants a = b = 3.260 Å, c = 5.214 Å. T...

The work reported compares elastic scattering spectroscopy (ESS) for diagnosis of pigmented skin lesions in two spectral regions: UV-visible and near infrared (NIR). Given the known strong absorption by melanin in the near-UV to mid-visible range of the spectrum, such a comparison can help determine the optimum wavelength range of ESS for diagnosis of pigmented skin lesions. For this purpose, f...

Visible light accounts for about 43% of the solar spectrum, and developing highly efficient visible-light-driven photocatalyst is of special significance. In this work, highly efficient three-dimensional (3D) Cd1-xZnxS photocatalysts for hydrogen generation under the irradiation of visible light were synthesized via one-step solvothermal pathway. Scanning electron microscope, X-ray diffractomet...

extraction of trace amounts of toxic heavy metals from complicated environmental matrixes is a  challenging task. the aim of this investigation is the comparison of the extraction efficiencies and other related experimental variables ( chemicals, effect of ph, potential interfering ions) on the determination of inorganic lead ( ) which is present in waste water of dye industries. compared techn...

modified bubble column extraction with ultrasonic bath (bce-ub) method was used to extract atropine from the stem and leaves of atropa belladonna. optimum condition were obtained with kamada solvent which was chloroform-methanol-ammonia 15:15:1(v/v/v) as extraction solvent, the particle size of  less than  350 µm, an extraction time of 23.95 min, a liquor to material ratio of 15.08 ml/g and  an...
