International Journal of Nanoscience, Ahead of Print. <br/> In this work, zinc nanoparticles were prepared using the low-temperature plasma method at different times 3 min, 5 min, 7 min, 9 min, where the initial reactions of zinc lead to the formation of nanoparticles. The metal interacts with the ionized plasma under different conditions and may turn into an oxide such as exposing the sample to air and raising the temperature of the solution a few degrees as a result of high voltage and within a certain range. The atmospheric pressure plasma system acts as the cathode, while the zinc me ..read more

International Journal of Nanoscience, Volume 23, Issue 04, August 2024. <br/> In this work, Mn2P2O7 nanoparticles were synthesized via hydrothermal route without any templates or surfactants followed by heat treatment at 700[math]C. The as-prepared samples were characterized and described using thermogravimetric and differential thermal analysis (TG-DTA), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectrometer (FT-IR), Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analysis. The resultant product was evaluated for electrochemical properties in organic electrolyte between −1.4 and 1.6 V usin ..read more

International Journal of Nanoscience, Ahead of Print. <br/> To overcome the scaling limitations of large-scale charge-storage-based memories, the physical-based analytic model of a memristor with high-performance resistive random-access memory and low power based on Trilayer interlinked graphene oxide (TIGO) with significant charge transport as an active layer is proposed in this research. To this end, the electron transport of the proposed device is investigated with two electrode-limited conduction mechanisms based on Schottky emission (SE) and trap-assisted tunneling (TAT). In the pro ..read more

International Journal of Nanoscience, Ahead of Print. <br/> The sensitive nonenzymatic sensing of glucose has been made feasible for the first time using a nonthermal plasma (NTP)-synthesized ZnO nanostructure. This work presents an interesting and novel method for surface modification. The effects of flow gas of Argon/Oxygen (20, 30 and 40 l/min) on the Zn foil surface and various properties were investigated. Optical emission spectroscopy OES has been used to characterize transmissions for positive and negative systems of Ar/O plasma. X-ray diffraction showed close adjacent tops and th ..read more

International Journal of Nanoscience, Ahead of Print. <br/> A feasibility study on cobalt ferrite-barium titanate (CFO-BTO) core-shell nanocomposite as a potential candidate to induce localized hyperthermia is performed through finite element analysis (FEA). The applied field in the radio frequency range (RF) to the simulated nanosized magneto-electric (ME) CFO-BTO core-shell nanocomposites is translated to heat energy due to (i) eddy current loss (ii) hysteresis loss and (iii) relaxation loss. A quantitative estimation of the hysteresis loss and eddy current loss is evaluated. The requi ..read more

International Journal of Nanoscience, Ahead of Print. <br/> The iron (III) oxide nanoparticles (NPs) were prepared by a solvent-controlled method when preparing the electrospinning solution. Nanofibers (NFs) were prepared from pure PVP and PVP doped with ratios 1 %wt., 2 %wt. and 3 %wt. of Fe2O3 NPs at room temperature by the electrospinning technique. Optical properties like absorbance and the band energy gap ([math]g) were studied, and the direct band gap of pure PVP NFs is 4.07 eV and decreases slightly with increasing concentration of Fe2O3 NPs. The PVP NFs with Fe2O3 NPs were used a ..read more

International Journal of Nanoscience, Ahead of Print. CuO:ZnO nanocomposite photocatalyst with tunable ratios of CuO was synthesized using a low-temperature-assisted co-precipitation method, which is suitable for industrial-scale production. Analytical techniques, including XRD, FE-SEM, HR-TEM, FTIR, XPS and UV–Vis, were utilized to investigate the structure, morphological characteristics, chemical composition and optical properties of the CuO:ZnO nanocomposite. The XRD analysis reveals that the samples exhibit a single phase, characterized by a wurtzite hexagonal structure of ZnO and a monocl ..read more

International Journal of Nanoscience, Ahead of Print. In order to explore the structures, morphology, and optical features of Fe2O3 nanofilms, the successive ionic layer adsorption and reactions (SILARs) technique was utilized to deposit the nanofilms onto glassy slides at varying concentrations of the precursor. Three precursor concentrations (0.025, 0.05 and 0.075) M were used. Analysis using X-ray diffraction (XRD) presented the crystalline structure of the Fe2O3 thin films. Field emission-scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) was used to evaluate the morphological features of the film ..read more

International Journal of Nanoscience, Ahead of Print. The anti/de-icing methods are mainly divided into two types: active method and passive method. The passive method generally adopts three ideas: reducing water contact, inhibiting water icing and reducing ice adhesion. Silica aerogels, which have adjustable surface wettability, thermal conductivity and porosity, would be designed to satisfy the requirement for passive anti/de-icing methods. In this work, the organic–inorganic hybrid aerogels based on organosilicon were facilely prepared in a sol–gel procedure, which showed hydrophobic and el ..read more
