Diminishing the charge recombination rate by improving the photoelectrochemical (PEC) performance of graphitic carbon nitride (g-CN) is essential for better water oxidation. In this concern, this research explores the competent approach to enhance the PEC performance of g-CN nanosheets (NSs), creating their nanocomposites (NCs) with metal-organic framework (MOF)-derived porous CeO nanobars (NBs) along with ZnO nanorods (NRs) and TiO nanoparticles (NPs). The synthesis involved preparing CeO NBs and g-CN NSs through the calcination of respective precursors, while the sol-gel method is employed for ZnO NRs and TiO NPs.

This work reports the resistive switching (RS) characteristics of the hydrothermally synthesized iron tungstate (FeWO) based thin film memristive device. The detailed physicochemical analysis was investigated using Rietveld's refinement, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) techniques.

Among these solid electrolytes, lanthanum oxide (La O ) is comparatively less explored for RS applications. Given this, the present work focuses on the electrodeposition of La O switching layers and the investigation of their RS properties for memory and neuromorphic computing applications.

In this work, uniform and adherent iron tungstate (FeWO) thin films were synthesized by the spray pyrolysis method with various precursor solution volumes, and these were tested as a switching layer for the fabrication of Ag/FWO/FTO memristive devices. The detailed structural investigation was done through various analytical and physio-chemical characterizations viz.

However, DSSCs are prone to low power conversion efficiency (PCE) compared to their counterparts, owing to their different synthesis parameters and process conditions. Therefore, designing efficient DSSCs and identifying the parameters that control the PCE of DSSCs are a critical tasks.

Most of the bacterial infections are associated with biofilm formation, which is resistant to the available antimicrobial drugs. As a result, novel bactericidal agents need to be fabricated, which can effectively combat the biofilm-associated bacterial infections.
