Medicinal plants have long been studied for their therapeutic benifits. The present research aims to unveil complex phytochemical profile and therapeutic properties of ethyl acetate fraction of Phlomis stewartii, an important medicinal plant. In this context, the Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) analysis of the fraction identified 26 compounds.

Article Synopsis
  • - The study examines zinc oxide (ZnO) thin films doped with cobalt (Co), iron (Fe), and zirconium (Zr), highlighting their use in optoelectronic devices and their structural and optical properties.
  • - X-ray diffraction revealed that the doped films maintained a stable wurtzite crystal structure, while atomic force microscopy showed a granular texture; energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy confirmed the transition metals' presence.
  • - Doping decreased the bandgap from 3.34 to 3.30 eV and improved electrical conductivity, suggesting promising applications in solar cells and light-emitting devices.
