Unraveling the Structure and Properties of Layered and Mixed ReO3–WO3 Thin Films Deposited by Reactive DC Magnetron Sputtering
(American Chemical Society, 2022)
Tungsten trioxide (WO3) is a well-known electrochromic material with a wide band gap, while rhenium trioxide (ReO3) is a “covalent metal” with an electrical conductivity comparable to that of pure metals. Since both WO3 ...
Sol-gel assisted molten-salt synthesis of novel single phase Y3–2xCa2xTaxAl5−xO12:1%Eu garnet structure phosphors
(Elsevier Ltd, 2022)
Strong absorption and emission are the key the features of any phosphor. The results obtained during this study demonstrate the difficulty of the incorporation of tantalum ions into the garnet structure and reveal that ...
Enhanced Electrochemical Properties of Na0.67MnO2 Cathode for Na-Ion Batteries Prepared with Novel Tetrabutylammonium Alginate Binder
(MDPI, 2022)
Both the binder and solid-electrolyte interface play an important role in improving the cycling stability of electrodes for Na-ion batteries. In this study, a novel tetrabutylammonium (TBA) alginate binder is used to prepare ...
Investigation of Nonlinear Optical Processes in Mercury Sulfide Quantum Dots
(MDPI, 2022)
The authors report the third-harmonic generation, nonlinear refraction, and nonlinear absorption in HgS quantum dot (QD) suspensions and films using the nanosecond and femtosecond pulses. High conversion efficiency (7 × ...
Membrane-less amphoteric decoupled water electrolysis using WO3 and Ni(OH)2 auxiliary electrodes
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2022)
Energy storage and delivery play a crucial role in the effective management of renewable power sources such as solar and wind. Hydrogen energy is proposed to be one of the major substitutes to fill the gap between the ...
Flame-Retardant and Tensile Properties of Polyamide 12 Processed by Selective Laser Sintering
(MDPI, 2022)
Composite materials are becoming widely applied in fire-critical conditions such as, e.g., aviation interior parts. Environmental considerations motivate the use of additive manufacturing due to the decrease of polymer ...
Plasma Dynamics Characterization for Improvement of Resonantly Enhanced Harmonics Generation in Indium and Tin Laser-Produced Plasmas
(MDPI, 2022)
In this study, we characterize the properties of indium and tin laser-induced plasmas responsible for efficient high-order harmonics generation of the ultrashort pulses propagating through these media. The optimally formed ...
Bi2Se3 Nanostructured Thin Films as Perspective Anodes for Aqueous Rechargeable Lithium-Ion Batteries
(MDPI, 2022)
In recent years, aqueous rechargeable lithium-ion batteries (ARLIBs) have attracted attention as an alternative technology for electrical storage. One of the perspective battery anode materials for application in ARLIBs ...
Effect of Core–Shell Rubber Nanoparticles on the Mechanical Properties of Epoxy and Epoxy-Based CFRP
(MDPI, 2022)
The aim of the research was to estimate the effect of core–shell rubber (CSR) nanoparticles on the tensile properties, fracture toughness, and glass transition temperature of the epoxy and epoxy-based carbon fiber reinforced ...
Amorphous Calcium Phosphate and Amorphous Calcium Phosphate Carboxylate: Synthesis and Characterization
(American Chemical Society, 2023)
Amorphous calcium phosphate (ACP) is the first solid phase precipitated from a supersaturated calcium phosphate solution. Naturally, ACP is formed during the initial stages of biomineralization and stabilized by an organic ...
