We show how nanocrystalline Co films formed by separated oblique nano-sheets display anisotropy in their resistivity, magnetization process, surface nano-morphology and optical transmission. After performing a heat treatment at 270 °C, these anisotropies decrease. This loss has been monitored measuring the resistivity as a function of temperature. The resistivity measured parallel to the direct...

statement of the problem addition of metallic nano-particles to composite resins can change their water contact angle purpose the aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of addition of nano-particles of silver and zinc oxide to composite resins on their water contact angle materials and methods this in vitro study was performed on 60 composite resin samples. nano-silver and nano-zinc oxide...

Highly enhanced Raman scattering of graphene on a plasmonic nano-structure platform is demonstrated. The plasmonic platform consists of silver nano-structures in a periodic array on top of a gold mirror. The gold mirror is used to move the hot spot to the top surface of the silver nano-structures, where the graphene is located. Two different nano-structures, ring and crescent, are studied. The ...

according to the unique properties and many applications of nano silver powder, it was prepared from acid leaching tail solution. the low value residual gold and silver ions were occurred with fellow heavy metals as pollutants (fe2+, cu 2+ and zn2+) in acid leaching tail solution in mouteh gold mine in iran. preparation of nano silver particles was achieved in two steps: first, by addition of a...

Electromagnetic properties of cylindrical active coated nano-particles comprised of a silica nano-cylinder core layered with a plasmonic concentric nano-shell are investigated for potential nano-sensor applications. Particular attention is devoted to the near-field properties of these particles, as well as to their far-field radiation characteristics, in the presence of an electric or a magneti...

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 ...

BACKGROUND Staphylococcus aureus biofilms contribute significantly to the recalcitrant nature of chronic rhinosinusitis. In previous studies, it has been shown that silk fibroin-nano silver solution can eliminate S. aureus biofilms in vitro, which suggests a potential role of this novel agent in the treatment of biofilm-associated diseases, such as sinusitis. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study w...

Silver nanoparticles is known to have antimicrobial affects. Cyanobacteria isolates from muthupet mangrove includes Aphanothece sp, Oscillatoria sp, Microcoleus sp, Aphanocapsa sp, Phormidium sp, Lyngbya sp, Gleocapsa sp, Synechococcus sp, Spirulina sp with were set in compliance with their cellular mechanism of nano silver creation, and were investigated by UV-VIS spectrophotometer, Energy-dis...

In this study, the manufacturing methods and imaging principles of cone-shaped arrays of micro-nano structure films were examined. Because optical films fabricated using cone-shaped arrays of micro-nano structures generate a double diffusion and produce diverse light effects on light sources, these optical films can be used effectively to enhance optical efficiency and can thus be used widely i...

a green low-cost and reproducible yeast mediated synthesis of silver nanoparticles is reported. the synthesis is performed at room temperature. x-ray and transmission electron microscopy analyses are performed to ascertain the formation of ag nanoparticles. nanoparticles almost spherical in shape having a size of 6-20 nm are found.
