Controlled aluminum oxide doping at an atomic level into binary indium/tin thin-films allows control of crucial TFT parameters such as the mobility ( μ sat ), threshold-voltage V th ) and on/off ratio I On / Off ). Moreover, it stabilizes performance under optical stress.

In recent years, much attention has been paid to pharmaceuticals as potential toxic bioactive substances in the worldwide environment. These compounds are continuously introduced into surroundings small concentrations, which certainly affects quality of water, ecosystem, and general health living organisms. Photocatalysis is a promising technique for treating pharmaceutically active organic pol...

A thermochemical representation of the Na-Al-Si-B-O system relevant for nuclear waste glass has been developed based on the associate species approach for the glass solution phase. Thermochemical data were assessed and associate species data determined for binary and ternary subsystems in the Na2O-Al2O3-B2O3-SiO2 system. Computed binary and ternary phase diagrams were compared to published diag...

In this paper, we present a hardware friendly binary decision tree (DT) classifier for gas identification. The DT classifier is based on an axis-parallel decision tree implemented as threshold networks—one layer of threshold logic units (TLUs) followed by a programmable binary tree implemented using combinational logic circuits. The proposed DT classifier circuit removes the need for multiplica...

Cuprous oxide agglomerates composed of 4-10 nm Cu2O nanoparticles were deposited on multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) and on ZnO/MWCNTs to give binary [Cu2O/MWCNT] and ternary [Cu2O/ZnO/MWCNT] composites. Di-aqua-bis[2-(methoxyimino)propanoato]copper Cu[O2CCCH3NOMe](2)·2H2O 1 in DMF was used as single source precursor for the deposition of nanoscaled Cu2O. The precursor decomposes either in...

Of late, graphene has occupied the attention of almost all researchers working globally in the area of materials science. Graphene nanocomposites are the latest additions to the wonder applications of graphene. One of the promising applications of the graphene-oxide nanocomposites is chemical sensing which is useful for monitoring the toxicity, inflammability, and explosive nature of chemicals....
