Investigating the optical and electrical performance of rod coated silver nanowire-based transparent conducting films.

Silver nanowires (Ag NWs) are highly promising building blocks for developing transparent conducting films (TCFs) due to their high electrical conductivity and good optical transparency. The large-scale production of Ag NW-based high-quality TCFs using low-cost processing methods can replace the traditional oxide based TCFs. Therefore, developing a reliable technique for large-scale fabrication of Ag NW-based TCFs is vital.

Harnessing ZnCrO/g-CN nanosheet heterojunction for enhanced photocatalytic degradation of rhodamine B and ciprofloxacin.

Utilizing semiconductors for photocatalytic processes in water bodies as an approach to environmental remediation has gained considerable attention. Theoretical band position calculations revealed a type-II step-scheme charge flow mechanism for ZnCrO/g-CN (ZCr/gCN), emphasizing effective heterojunction formation due to synergies between the materials. A composite of agglomerated nanoparticle ZnCrO (Zinc chromium oxide - ZCr)/g-CN (graphitic carbon nitride - gCN) nanosheets was synthesized using the ultrasonication and leveraging the heterojunction to enhance degradation efficiency and active sites participation.

Interfacial engineering in 3D/2D and 1D/2D bismuth ferrite (BiFeO)/Graphene oxide nanocomposites for the enhanced photocatalytic activities under sunlight.

3D-particulate and 1D-fiber structures of multiferroic bismuth ferrite (BiFeO/BFO) and their composites with 2D-graphene oxide (GO) have been developed to exploit the different scheme of interfacial engineering as 3D/2D and 1D/2D systems. Particulates and fibers of BFO were developed via sol-gel and electrospinning fabrication approaches respectively and their integration with GO was performed via the ultrasonic-assisted chemical reduction process. The crystalline and phase formation of BiFeO and GO was confirmed from the XRD patterns obtained.
