CdSe nanostructured thin film by electrophoretic deposition for quantum dots sensitized solar cell.

Cadmium selenide (CdSe) quantum dots (QDs) with different size, 2.5 and 3.2 nm, were successfully deposited on mesoporous titanium dioxide (TiO) (Degussa-P25) nanostructures by electrophoretic deposition method (EPD) at the applied voltage 100 V for 120 s deposition time.

Tailoring mechanical and in vitro biological properties of calcium‒silicate based bioceramic through iron doping in developing future material.

Dense iron-doped akermanite ceramics with 0.3, 0.6 and 0.

Effect of strontium substitution on structural, sinterability, physicomechanical and biological properties of akermanite ceramic.

Despite the excellent in vitro and in vivo performance of akermanite ceramic, its poor toughness and strength limit the biomedical application, particularly under load. Herein, the incorporation of strontium enhanced the physicomechanical properties of akermanite and this is ascribed to the decrease in grain size and better sinterability. To investigate the biological performance, the bone-cell interaction with sintered pellets was assessed by in vitro biocompatibility with human fetal osteoblast cell (hFOB).

Physicochemical Properties of a Highly Efficient Cu-Ion-Doped TiO₂ Nanotube Photocatalyst for the Degradation of Methyl Orange Under Sunlight.

In this study, a series of copper-ion-doped titanium dioxide (Cu-ion-doped TiO₂) nanotubes (NTs) were synthesized via a hydrothermal method by the concentration variation of doped Cu ions (0.00, 0.50, 1.
