We report the discovery of vertically aligned nano-scale diamond tips grown on the polycrystalline diamond substrates in a CH4/N2/H2 mixed plasma. The best diamond quality occurs at the top part of the nanotip, which is single crystalline diamond. The quality of the diamond nanotip is justified by the diamond characteristic peak at 1332 cm 1 in the Raman spectrum, the discrete electron diffract...

Objective: This field experiment was laid out in order to study on effect of Nano and Bio fertilizers on yield and yield components of tomato (Lycopersicone sculentum L.) during the growing seasons 2013- 2014. Methods: The experiment was laid out in a factorial based on randomized block design with three replications. Treatments were K nanofertilizer in five levels such as (0, 100, 200...

Silicon nitride (SiNx) coatings are promising for joint replacement applications due to their high wear resistance and biocompatibility. For such coatings, a higher nitrogen content, obtained through an increased nitrogen gas supply, has been found to be beneficial in terms of a decreased dissolution rate of the coatings. The substrate temperature has also been found to affect the composition a...

Photoluminescence (PL) spectra of single nitrogen vacancy (NV) centers in 50-nm diamond nanocrystals at the zero-phonon line (ZPL) were directly observed using a Fabry-Perot interferometer at cryogenic temperatures. The narrowest linewidth of ZPL was 1.2 GHz (1.9 ± 0.7 GHz on average), comparable to ZPL linewidths in PL spectra reported for NV centers in pure bulk diamond. This observation is i...

OBJECTIVES The present study reports on the preparation and testing of a desoxycholate amphotericin B (D-AMB) sustained delivery system based on poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) and dimercaptosuccinic acid (DMSA) polymeric blends (Nano-D-AMB) aimed at reducing the number of AMB administrations required to treat mycosis. METHODS BALB/c mice were infected with the yeast Paracoccidioides bra...

nano fillers are part of new studies to enhance various properties of fluids and solids. for example, adding nanoparticles as an enforcement in nanocomposites or as an additive to improve thermal or electrical properties in nano-fluids are of extreme importance in science and industry. there are numerous methods to uniformly disperse nanoparticles in fluid and solid phase. one of the well-used ...

Abstract The College of Agriculture - Sumer University conducted a field experiment in 2019 to explore the effects spraying pepper plants with nano-nitrogen and yeast extract on various vegetative features. Two variables’ were investigated this experiment. Spraying seedlings three different concentrations nano nitrogen (0, 2, 4 mlliter -1 ) first two factors 3, 6 g L ). With repetitions nine ex...
