This study explores the impact of Cu and Ni doping on the structural, wettability, optical, and photocatalytic properties of ZnO thin films. The co-doped thin films, with varying Ni concentrations, were deposited using a spray pyrolysis method onto pre-heated soda lime glass substrates. X-ray diffraction analysis confirmed the hexagonal wurtzite st...

A bi-magnetic phase (Fe65Co35)x@(Ni0.5Zn0.5Fe2O4)100–x nanocomposite thin film was created by combining Fe65Co35 alloy nanoclusters produced through plasma gas condensation with Ni0.5Zn0.5Fe2O4 thin film prepared via RF magnetron sputtering. The study revealed that the Fe65Co35 alloy nanoclusters, with an average particle size of approximately 6 nm...

High-temperature superconducting materials (HTS) are characterized by remarkably high critical current density (Jc) values when exposed to low temperatures and magnetic fields. In the realm of such investigations, various crystalline imperfections, including finely dispersed non-superconducting phases, dislocations, vacancies, grain boundaries, twi...

As an additional heat carrier besides phonons and electrons, the surface phonon polariton (SPhPs) possesses a large potential to increase the thermal conductivity. In this work, the influences of SPhP frequency, film thickness and film permittivity on the SPhP-contributed thermal conductivity of SiC thin films were probed. Results show that: there ...

In this research, La-doped ZnO thin films were produced using the spray pyrolysis method to study the influence of La concentration. The films were doped with La at different concentrations ranging from 1 to 5 weight percent (wt%). Various physical properties of the deposited films were examined using a variety of techniques. X-ray diffraction anal...

The superior kinetics of charge carriers and greater visible light absorption are important factors for enhancing photoelectrochemical performance. Herein, the core–shell heterostructure has been developed by encapsulating single-phase MnZnO3 over TiO2 nanotubes by aerosol-assisted chemical vapor deposition approach. The fabricated photoanodes have...

To investigate the Ta5+-substitution effects on crystal structure and ferroelectric property in HfO2-based films, Ta x Hf1−x O2+δ films with various film thicknesses and Ta content were prepared. The ferroelectric orthorhombic phase was formed in a wide film thickness range of 20–100 nm while in a narrow composition range of x = 0.10–0.14. These th...

Scandium-doped aluminum nitride thin films are key materials for MEMS applications including bulk acoustic wave devices for communication. Although one drawback is the increase in the loss tangent with increasing Sc concentration, the loss tangent is reported to decrease after post-deposition annealing. However, the underlying mechanisms remain unc...

Ammonia (NH3) gas presents risks to human health and environment, requiring continuous monitoring using reliable sensors. The versatility and the sensitivity to ammonia of conductive polymers make them excellent candidates for use as active layers in sensors. In this study, our goal is to analyze and compare the response of two chemiresistive senso...
