adsorption of cyanogen molecule on the surface of pristine and sc-doped b12n12 nanocage is scrutinized using at dft calculations to investigating its potential as chemical nanosensors. the results show that cyanogen is weakly adsorbed on the pristine b12n12 and consequently its electrical properties are changed insignificantly. in order to improve the properties of the nanocage sensor, sc dopin...

Recent progress in understanding the effect of electrostatics in soft matter is presented. A vast number of materials contain ions, ranging from the molecular scale (e.g. electrolyte) to the meso/macroscopic one (e.g. charged colloidal particles or polyelectrolytes). Their (micro)structure and physico-chemical properties are especially dictated by the famous and redoubtable long-ranged Coulomb ...

It is well known that bimetallic microcantilevers can exhibit static deflection as a result of thermal effects, including exothermic adsorption of chemicals on their surfaces. It is shown here that the resonance frequency of a cantilever can change due to a combination of mass loading and change of spring constant resulting from adsorption of chemicals on the surface. Cantilevers also undergo s...

The wire cut EDM is one of the most important machining process for technologists in the field of moulds, dies and in precision manufacturing .The wire electrical discharge machining producing parts with in very short period , the demand over the time increases extensively .So that an extensive research work has been carried out to optimize the parameters of the process by eliminating trial and...

This work presents the application of a geostatistical-based modeling approach for building up electrical properties acquired from a geophysical electrical tomography survey deployed for the purpose of porphyry Cu exploration at the Takht-e-Gonbad deposit, in the central domain of Iran. Electrical data were inverted in 2D along several profiles across the main favorable zones of Cu-bearing mine...

In this study we investigate the effect of atoms such as B, N, Ge and Sn on the optical and the electrical properties of capped (5, 0) zigzag carbon nanotube, using DFT calculation method. These elements were attached to the one end of the carbon nanotube. We considered four different structure designs as possible candidates for a p-n junction device. The electrical properties of these structur...

The improvement of the physical properties of Indium Tin Oxide (ITO) layers is quite advantageous in photovoltaic applications. In this study the ITO film is deposited by RF sputtering onto p-type crystalline silicon (c-Si) with (100) orientation, multicrystalline silicon (mc-Si), and glass substrates coated with ZnO and annealed in vacuum furnace at 400°C. Electrical, optical, structural a...
