Extensive efforts have been devoted to the study of spin-orbit torque in ferromagnetic metal/heavy metal bilayers and exploitation of it for magnetization switching using an in-plane current. As the spin-orbit torque is inversely proportional to the thickness of the ferromagnetic layer, sizable effect has only been realized in bilayers with an ultrathin ferromagnetic layer. Here we demonstrate ...

In this work, Pt, Fe and Co nanoparticles were prepared by chemical reduction of the metal salts in chitosan as the support. NaBH4 was used as the reducing agent Pt-Fe, Pt-Co and Pt-Fe-Co-chitosan nanocomposites were synthesized and characterized by UV–Vis spectra and Transmission electron microscopy images. GC/Pt-chitosan, GC/Pt-Co-chitosan, GC/Pt-Fe-chitosan and GC/Pt-Co-Fe-chitosan electrode...

The impregnation method was used to synthesize Pt and Pt3Co supported on MWCNTs applying NaBH4 as the reducing agent. The structure, morphology, and chemical composition of the electrocatalysts were characterized through SEM, XRD, and EDX. X-ray diffraction showed a good crystallinity of the supported Pt nanoparticles on the composites and showed the formation of Pt3<...

The binding energy and Thermodynamic Parameters of cis- Platinum Di Ammino Chlorine (cis-[Pt(NH3)2Cl]+) and trans- Platinum Di Ammino Chlorine (trans- [Pt(NH3)2Cl]+) complexes withGuanine has been studied by density functional theory (DFT) calculations in water. The bindingenergies (Ebin) of cis- and trans-[Pt(NH3)2ClG]+ are calculated to be 79.38 kcal/mol and 74.98kcal/mol, respectively. The b...

in the present study we search potential of pt-decorated graphene (ptg) as a new nanostructure adsorbent for nitrous oxide (n2o) using density functional theory (dft). after fully relaxation of different possible orientations of n2o-ptg complex, we distinguished two optimized configurations for this system; 1- terminal n-side of gas is oriented towards pt so that the molecule axis is perpendicu...
