The use of less hazardous chemicals or natural material in place of toxic chemical for the formation of metal nanoparticle is known as green synthesis. The present paper deals with greener approach for the synthesis of silver (Ag) nanoparticles. The Saraca asoca plant leaves extract solution was used for the silver nanoparticles. Confirmation of Ag nanoparticles has been done using var...

In this research, Ni(8%)/TiO2/Zeolite NaX nanophotocatalyst was synthesized andevaluated as a desulfurizer catalyst from hydrophane 10 base oil. Various tests,including X-ray diffraction (XRD), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Energy-Dispersive X-ray Analysis (EDXA), Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM), AtomicForce Microscopy (AFM), and BET/BJH were used to evaluat...

some issues; leakage, tunneling currents, boron diffusion are threatening sio2 to be used as a good gate dielectric for the future of the cmos (complementary metal- oxide- semiconductor) transistors. for finding an alternative and novel gate dielectric, the nio (nickel oxide) and pva (polyvinyl alcohol) nano powders were synthesized with the sol-gel method and their nano structural properties w...

Nickel films of 150 nm thickness were deposited on 304 stainless steel and post annealed under flow of nitrogen at different temperatures. The prepared samples were corrosion tested in 1.0 M H2SO4 solution using potentiodynamic polarization technique. Crystallographic and morphological structure of the samples were analysed by X-ray diffraction XRD and atomic force microscopy AFM respectively b...

A nanolayer of composite and Rhodococcus erythropolis biocatalyst was studied for the first time for desulfurization of dibenzothiophene as a model sulfur compound and its performance was compared with that of composite and R. erythropolis alone. The nanolayer of composite was synthesized by sol-gel method from ferrous oxalate and zinc oxalate precursors coated on glass by spin coating techniqu...

This paper reports the correlation between film thickness, nanostructure and DC electrical properties of copper thin films deposited by PVD method on glass substrate. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and atomic force microscopy (AFM) were used for crystallography and morphology investigation, respectively. Resistivity was measured by four point probe instrument, while a Hall effects measurement system w...
