Excitation functions based on level density were calculated for proton-induced on yttrium-89 using the TALYS-1.8 code. Hence, production cross-section of the Y(p,x)Zr, Y, Sr, and Rb were computed up to 50 MeV. In this study, the constant temperature model alongside the Fermi Gas model (CGCM) was employed as a default model. For this reason, the a-parameter as an essential parameter in the Fermi Gas formula was modified to obtain the best result. Besides, the Back-shifted Fermi Gas Model (BSFGM) and the Generalized Superfluid Model (GSM) are presented to the deliberation. The outcomes of cross-sections were compared with the experimental data approaching regarding desired consequences.

Cupric oxide (CuO) is a promising p-type semiconducting oxide used in many critical fields, such as energy conversion and storage, and gas sensors, which is attributed to its unique optoelectrical properties and cost-effectiveness. This work successfully deposited amorphous, pinhole-free, ultrathin CuO films using atmospheric pressure spatial atomic layer deposition (SALD) with copper(II) acetylacetonate and ozone as precursors. The growth rate increased from 0.

Electrochemical energy storage plays a critical role in the transition to clean energy. With the growing demand for efficient and sustainable energy solutions, supercapacitors have gained significant attention due to their high specific capacitance, rapid charge/discharge capabilities, long lifespan, safe operation across various temperatures, and minimal maintenance needs. This study introduces a novel approach for the synthesis of high-performance supercapacitor electrodes by using MnNi-MOF-74 as a precursor.

Gold-based (Au) nanostructures are efficient catalysts for CO oxidation, hydrogen evolution (HER), and oxygen evolution (OER) reactions, but stabilizing them on graphene (Gr) is challenging due to weak affinity from delocalized [Formula: see text] carbon orbitals. This study investigates forming metal alloys to enhance stability and catalytic performance of Au-based nanocatalysts. Using ab initio density functional theory, we characterize [Formula: see text] sub-nanoclusters (M = Ni, Pd, Pt, Cu, and Ag) with atomicities [Formula: see text], both in gas-phase and supported on Gr.

Realizing reliable online detection of characteristic gases (H, CH, CO, and CO) in lithium-ion batteries is crucial to maintain the safe and stable operation of power equipment and new energy storage power plants. In this study, transition metal Pt ( = 1, 3, and 4) clusters are attached to MoSe nanosheets for the first time based on density functional theory using the perfect crystalline facet modification method, and the adsorption characteristics and electronic behaviors of H, CH, CO, and CO are investigated and enhanced. The results show that Pt ( = 1, 3, and 4) is reliably chemically connected to the substrate without any significant deformation of the geometry.

High selectivity and sensitivity sensing of HS gas play a decisive role in the early detection of sulfide solid-state battery failure. Herein, we construct the CsPbBr perovskite-based sensor that exhibits outstanding gas-sensing performance to HS at room temperature, including high selectivity, fast response/recovery speed (73.5/275.
