ZnO/Graphene Composite from Solvent-Exfoliated Few-Layer Graphene Nanosheets for Photocatalytic Dye Degradation under Sunlight Irradiation.

ZnO/graphene nanocomposites were prepared using a facile approach. Graphene nanosheets were prepared by ultrasonication-based liquid phase exfoliation of graphite powder in a low boiling point organic solvent, 1,2-Dichloroethane, for the preparation of ZnO/graphene nanocomposites. Structural properties of the synthesized ZnO/graphene nanocomposites were studied through powder XRD and micro-Raman analysis.

MXene/Ferrite Magnetic Nanocomposites for Electrochemical Supercapacitor Applications.

MXene has been identified as a new emerging material for various applications including energy storage, electronics, and bio-related due to its wider physicochemical characteristics. Further the formation of hybrid composites of MXene with other materials makes them interesting to utilize in multifunctional applications. The selection of magnetic nanomaterials for the formation of nanocomposite with MXene would be interesting for the utilization of magnetic characteristics along with MXene.

Tunable Optimal Dual Band Metamaterial Absorber for High Sensitivity THz Refractive Index Sensing.

We present a simple dual band absorber design and investigate it in the terahertz (THz) region. The proposed absorber works in dual operating bands at 5.1 THz and 11.
