Rapid and facile preparation of the cheap modified electrode materials is an important parameter in development of the efficient electrochemical sensor for industrial scale production and mass-market usage. In the present work, the carbon paste electrode modified with multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) was prepared for sensitive determination of lead (Pb) ion in the presence of bismuth (Bi)...

In this paper, the temperature dependence of some characteristics of cylindrical gate-all-around Si nanowire field effect transistor (GAA-Si-NWFET) is investigated to representing the temperature nano-sensor structures and improving their performance. Firstly, we calculate the temperature sensitivity of drain-source current versus the gate-source voltage of GAA-Si-NWFET to propose the temperatu...

There are only a handful reports about the sensor systems having the ability of detecting the existence of the noble gases. Chemical reluctance of these gaseous species causes them to have no chemical interactions like hydrogen bonding with the chemically designed nano-sized sensors. Noble gasses usually have no atomic charges nor do change the total polarity of the molecular sensor systems. Th...

Infrared detector has a wide range of applications. To fabricate an IR detector with good sensitivity, an efficient IR absorber is needed. In this paper, we theoretically and experimentally investigated the absorption characteristics of Ti, multi-layer structured Ti-SiO2 and TiNx-SiNx nano films. The multi-layer structured TiNx-SiNx films with different nitrogen contents and Ti nano films with ...

The Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) have received considerable research attention in recent time. The sensor devices of a WSN are severely resource constrained having a very limited operational lifetime. Such sensor devices have to adapt to the changing environment at deployment site and need dynamic reconfiguration. The operating systems supporting the sensor devices should be capable of realiz...

The detection of tramadol using a screen printed electrode modified with La3+/ZnO nano-flowers and multi-walled carbon nanotubes (La3+/ZnO NFs-MWCNTs/SPE) is reported in this work. In order to examine electrochemical oxidation, the was implemented utilization differential pulse voltammetry, chronoamperometry cyclic voltammetry as diagnostic techniques. proposed displays favorable electrocatalyt...

To closely analyze the dislocation structure evolution during nano-indentation, a multi-scale discrete dislocation plasticity code is modified to include nano-indentation loading. This code couples two length scales, discrete dislocation dynamics and continuum finite element analysis and has been successfully applied to analyze various problems in mechanics and materials science. Description of...

BACKGROUND The advent of fluorescent nanosensors has enabled intracellular monitoring of several physiological analytes, which was previously not possible with molecular dyes or other invasive techniques. We have extended the capability of these sensors to include the detection of small molecules with the development of glucose-sensitive nano-optodes. Herein, we discuss the design and developme...

Nanostructured nickel hydroxide (nano-Ni(OH)2) was synthesized at a low temperature without annealing. Accordingly, a plasticizer sensor based on a quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) modified with the nano-Ni(OH)2 sensing film was fabricated to detect dibutyl phthalate (DBP) and its relative film thickness was optimized. The sensor worked at room temperature and exhibited a high sensitivity of 4...
