Nano Cd0.9Mg0.05S was synthesized applying the thermolysis technique in air and under flow of nitrogen. Samples obtained exhibited CdS structure with two phases. Rietveld refinement analysis was used to determine the different structure parameters. Analysis of UV–Vis absorption spectra disclosed that the optical band gap of CdS sample prepared in N...

The electronic and thermoelectric properties of bulk and [001] surfaces of half-Heusler compound TiNiSn are investigated consistently by combining the first principle electronic structure calculations and BOLTZRAP transport theory. It is found that semi-metallic behavior in the Fermi level compared with the bulk state of a compound is declined and ...

CdS and Cd0.95Mn0.05S were synthesized using a thermolysis procedure in the air and underflow of nitrogen. Rietveld analysis for X-ray diffraction data revealed that all samples have two phases (hexagonal wurtzite and cubic zinc blende). The effect of Mn doping and the preparation conditions on the phase percentages, the crystallite size, lattice p...
The ion exchange processes and phase formation were studied by varying the properties of 1D barium titanate nanostructures. Temperature-, timeand alkalinity-dependent experiments were performed to study the BaTiO3 formation mechanism involving the generation of chemical sites which induced in situ transformation and dissolution-precipitation reacti...
Furan is used as a caged warhead to covalently target weak protein–protein interactions. Furan-thymosin β4 cross-links selectively and irreversibly with actin targeting lysine. Furan technology could be further exploited for covalent drug design.
Concentration gradients are at the basis of many natural phenomena and hold great importance in human and plant biology. This basic phenomenon has inspired many material scientists to confer novel and original properties to materials with numerous biomedical and pharmaceutical applications such as drug discovery, controlled release of drugs, tissue...
Chemical sensors based on atomically-thin two-dimensional (2D) semiconductors and their hetero-structures are promising candidates for sensing various agents with unipolar sensitivity, excellent selectivity, high responsivity and great long-term stability for versatile applications at the wide working temperature range. Further improvement of senso...
