Ambipolar Seebeck Coefficient in MoS/MoS-MoO Graded Composites by Junction Reciprocation.

We fabricated radially transformed growth of MoS to MoS-MoO by the two-zone chemical vapor transport (CVT) technique. The idea to apply heat, i.e.

Impact of Crystallite Size and Phase Boundaries on Magnetic and Thermoelectric Properties of Cu-Added BiFeO.

In this study, bismuth ferrite (BFO) and copper-added BFO were synthesized using the coprecipitation method. The incorporation of copper into the BFO lattice led to a reduction in the phase percentage of BFO due to the early formation of CuBiO. X-ray diffraction analysis revealed a decrease in crystallite size up to 0.

Plasmon Effect of Ag Nanoparticles on TiO/rGO Nanostructures for Enhanced Energy Harvesting and Environmental Remediation.

We report Ag nanoparticles infused with mesosphere TiO/reduced graphene oxide (rGO) nanosheet (TiO/rGO/Ag) hybrid nanostructures have been successfully fabricated using a series of solution process synthesis routes and an in-situ growth method. The prepared hybrid nanostructure is utilized for the fabrication of photovoltaic cells and the photocatalytic degradation of pollutants. The photovoltaic characteristics of a dye-sensitized solar cell (DSSC) device with plasmonic hybrid nanostructure (TiO/rGO/Ag) photoanode achieved a highest short-circuit current density () of 16.

Engineering of mono-dispersed mesoporous TiO over 1-D nanorods for water purification under visible light irradiation.

Herein we synthesized a novel structure of mesoporous TiO decorated on 1D ZnO nanorods for environmental remediation. The effect of mesoporous TiO over 1D nanorods were investigated. The phase transitions of nanocomposite were confirmed by powder diffraction analysis.

Effect of Erbium on the Photocatalytic Activity of TiO2 /Ag Nanocomposites under Visible Light Irradiation.

Erbium co-doped TiO2 /Ag catalysts are synthesized by using a simple, one-step solvothermal method and characterized by X-ray diffraction, field-emission scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, Raman analysis, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and diffuse reflectance spectroscopy. The catalysts exhibit anatase crystal structures with increased visible light absorption compared with pure TiO2 . Enhanced photocatalytic activity is observed with Er co-doped TiO2 /Ag nanocomposites for Rhodamine B degradation under visible light irradiation.
