        Bimetallic Au-Ag nanoparticles with homogeneous dispersion in amine-modified SBA-15 mesoporous silica channels were successfully synthesized by the post-modification method. The obtained nanocomposites with different component ratios were studied by structural, Physico-chemical, and optical analysis. The structural and Physico-chemical properties were studied by X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, and nitrogen adsorption-desorption isotherm measurement (BET). The optical properties were characterized by photoluminescence (PL) and UV-Vis spectroscopy. The photoluminescence and absorption spectra were strongly affected by the change in the compositional ratio of gold to silver nanoparticles due to the interactions of Au-Ag nanoparticles, the configuration of conduction electrons and their plasmonic properties. A significant enhancement was observed in the photoluminescence spectrum in the long-wavelength red emission at 640 nm for a one-to-one composition ratio of Au/Ag/SBA-15 nanocomposite. Since the light emission of most microorganisms is in the visible range, the nanocomposite produced can be proposed for applications in biosensor technology. تفاصيل المقالة

        In the present study, silver doped zinc oxide nanoparticles (NPs) have been added in the pristine ferroelectric liquid crystal (FLC). The dielectric, electro-optical and spectroscopic properties was investigated of the pristine FLC and FLC-NPs composite system. The dispersion of NPs into the pristine FLC material sturdily influences the various properties of composite system. Due to dispersion of NPs, a rapid increment in the dielectric permittivity and faster switching was observed for the FLC-NPs composite system. Absorbance of the UV light got diminished in the presence of silver doped zinc oxide NPs. Photoluminescence emission of the pristine FLC material has been quenched after the addition of NPs and a red shift was also detected. The possible applications of this investigation have been suggested in the letter. تفاصيل المقالة

        AbstractZnO nanoparticles were synthesized from chitosan and zinc chloride by a precipitation method. The synthesized ZnO nanoparticles were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction peak profile analysis, Scanning electron microscopy, Transmission electron microscopy and Photoluminescence. The X-ray diffraction results revealed that the sample was crystalline with a hexagonal wurtzite phase. We have investigated the crystallite development in ZnO nanoparticles by X-ray peak profile analysis. The Williamson–Hall analysis and size–strain plot were used to study the individual contributions of crystallite sizes and lattice strain ϵ on the peak broadening of ZnO nanoparticles. The parameters including strain, stress and energy density value were calculated for all the reflection peaks of X-ray diffraction corresponding to wurtzite hexagonal phase of ZnO lying in the range 20°–80° using the modified form of Williamson–Hall plots and size–strain plot. The results showed that the crystallite size estimated from Scherrer’s formula, Williamson–Hall plots and size–strain plot, and the particle size estimated from Transmission electron microscopy analysis are very much inter-correlated. Both methods, the X-ray diffraction and Transmission electron microscopy, provide less deviation between crystallite size and particle size in the present case. تفاصيل المقالة

        AbstractIn the present investigation, TiO2-doped weakly polar nematic liquid crystal (NLC) has been studied. This study mainly focuses on dielectric, electro-optical and optical properties of pure NLC and doped systems. Variation in different parameters like dielectric permittivity, dielectric loss, dielectric anisotropy and conductivity has been noticed. Permittivity of the doped system is almost the same as undoped system. With doping concentration, the ionic contribution to the dielectric loss as observed in low-frequency region has been suppressed and the shift in relaxation frequency toward higher frequency side has also been observed. The electrical conductivity and threshold voltage have been decreased with increasing concentration of nanoparticles (NPs). The continuous increase in dielectric anisotropy with increasing the concentration of NPs has also been observed. These results have been attributed to the trapping capability of free ions by TiO2 NPs. Further, we focused on the study of photoluminescence (PL), UV absorbance and Fourier transformed infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) of pure and doped systems. The continuous increase in PL intensity without any shift in emission peak has been observed for doped systems. Enhancement in UV absorbance with increasing concentration of NPs has also been observed. The effect of NPs doping on molecular dynamics of NLC can be clearly seen by FTIR study. The results suggest that the TiO2 NP-doped weakly polar NLC can have significant improved dielectric, electro-optical and optical properties. This makes the weakly polar NLC to be a potential candidate for many applications. تفاصيل المقالة

        AbstractPure ZnO and Cobalt (Co) doped ZnO nanoparticles (NPs) were synthesized by the co-precipitation method. The synthesized nanoparticles retained the wurtzite hexagonal structure, which was confirmed by X-ray diffraction studies. From FESEM studies, ZnO and Co doped ZnO NPs showed Spherical and nanorod mixed phase and Spherical like morphology, respectively. The amount of dopant (Co2+) incorporated into ZnO sample was determined by EDAX. The FT-IR spectra confirmed the Zn–O stretching bands at 438 and 427 cm−1 for ZnO and Co doped ZnO NPs. From the UV–VIS spectroscopic measurements, the excitonic pecks were found around 376 and 370 nm for the respective samples. The photoluminescence measurements revealed that the broad emission was composed of seven different bands due to zinc vacancies, oxygen vacancies and surface defects. The dynamic light scattering (DLS) and Zeta potential measurements were used to find out the size and surface charges. تفاصيل المقالة

        The present paper aims to suggest a simple/fast route for direct preparation of the Ni-doped ZnSe/ZnS core/shell NCs in aqueous solution. Using XRD measurement, the zinc blend structure and sub-5 nm average size of the NCs was proved. The FT-IR spectrum also showed the passivation of the NCs surface by means of the deprotonated thiol terminals of the NAC molecules. The intensity of the dopant-related emission at about 476 nm in Ni:ZnSe doped NCs was found to experience more than four times enhancement by utilization of the extra ZnS shell. It was also observed that the increasing of the shell overcoating time from 1 to 3 h, has effective role on better passivation of the surface of the NCs and increasing of the emission intensity تفاصيل المقالة

        Fluorescent carbon nanoparticles (CNPs) were prepared by nanosecond laser ablation of graphite powder in liquid. The effect of the liquid medium on photoluminescence (PL) efficiency and wavelength range were studied experimentally. Four solvents, polyethylene glycol, diethanolamine, diethylamine, and ethylenediamine were used as liquid platforms in the synthesis process. Analyzing the chemical components and optical spectral characterization of CNPs was carried out by attenuated total reflection Fourier-transform infrared (ATR-FTIR) spectroscopy and photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy, respectively. Moreover, the size of CNPs was estimated by using dynamic light scattering (DLS) measurements. Liquid components are determined to be a key factor affecting PL properties and nanoparticle size. The results are valuable in practical applications. تفاصيل المقالة

        In this project, the TiO2 nano-rods were synthesized from P25 TiO2 nanoparticles by hydrothermal method in 20 M NaOH solution. The effects of annealing temperatures on produced nanorods were investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) X-ray diffraction (XRD) and photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy. Diameter growth and changes of surface oxygen defects of synthesized Nano rods are studied with increasing annealing temperatures. Also, with Increase of annealing temperature over 300 °C there is no effect on the size of produced nano-rods, but due to reducing of the surface charge causes the more compact products. In summation, the effects of post heat treatment temperatures were in detail investigated by SEM, XRD and PL spectroscopy. The obtained results were shown that the increasing of annealing temperature until 300 °C causes increase of thicknesses of prepared nanorods by hydrothermal method. Increase of annealing temperature over 300 °C has no effect on the size of produced nanorods, but due to reducing of the surface charge causes the more compact products. In addition, the surface defects of synthesized 1D TiO2 were decreased because of increase of annealing temperatures, but we should note that at higher tempera tures (over 500 °C) the TiO2 phase may be converted from anatase to rutile. تفاصيل المقالة
