The development of new fabrication techniques of plasmonic nanocomposites with specific properties is an ongoing issue in the plasmonic and nanophotonics community. In this paper we report detailed investigations on the modifications of the microstructural and plasmonic properties of metal-titania nanocomposite films induced by swift heavy ions. Au-TiO2 and Ag-TiO2 nanocomposite thin films with...

In this study, AgI-ZnO/chitosan nanocomposite was synthesized and then coated on 2×40×200 glass plates under UVA irradiation for the removal of toluene from air streams. The Nanocomposite characterized using XRD, SEM, FTIR BET techniques. analyses showed Zn Ag were added to composite structure with weight percentages 32.02 7.31, respectively. results confirmed that successfully synthetized. Acc...

Radiotherapy is the major treatment for nasopharyngeal carcinoma, a malignant tumor of epithelial origin. In this process, a tracer with high sensitivity is pivotal for diagnostic imaging in radiotherapy. Here, we designed a novel multifunctional magnetic silver nanocomposite, Fe(3)O(4)/Ag conjugated to an epidermal growth factor receptor-specific antibody (C225), which can be potentially used ...

Mesoporous TiO2/reduced graphene oxide/Ag (TiO2/RGO/Ag) ternary nanocomposite with an effective electron transfer pathway is obtained by an electrostatic self-assembly method and photo-assisted treatment. Compared with bare mesoporous TiO2 (MT) and mesoporous TiO2/RGO (MTG), the ternary mesoporous TiO2/RGO/Ag (MTGA) nanocomposite exhibited superior photocatalytic performance for the degradation...

UNLABELLED BACKGROUND The aim of this study is to investigate the functions of polymers and size of nanoparticles on the antibacterial activity of silver bionanocomposites (Ag BNCs). In this research, silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) were incorporated into biodegradable polymers that are chitosan, gelatin and both polymers via chemical reduction method in solvent in order to produce Ag BNCs. Si...

The Ag-Ge-S system is among the best-performing active materials for a new class of high-performance electronic memory known as programmable metallization cells.[1,2] Memory switching in a programmable metallization cell relies on the electrochemical formation and dissolution of an electronically conducting filament within a solid electrolyte. In the Ag-Ge-S system, this electrochemical process...

The particle size, morphology, and stability of Ag-NPs were investigated in the present study. A Q-Switched Nd: YAG pulsed laser (λ = 532 nm, 360 mJ/pulse) was used for ablation of a pure Ag plate for 30 min to prepare Ag-NPs in the organic compound such as ethylene glycol (EG) and biopolymer such as chitosan. The media (EG, chitosan) permitted the making of NPs with well dispersed and average ...

 In this paper, a novel ternary nanocomposite namely reduced graphene oxide/hydroxyapatite/silver (rGO/HAP/Ag) was prepared by a simple hydrothermal method using graphene oxide nanosheets, Ca(NO3)2, (NH4)2HPO4, and AgNO3 as starting materials. The as-prepared nanocomposite was characterized by using various photophysical techniqu...
