A mixed iron–manganese based pyrophosphate cathode, Na2Fe0.5Mn0.5P2O7, for rechargeable sodium ion batteries
(
Royal Society of Chemistry
, 2016 , Article)
The development of secondary batteries based on abundant and cheap elements is vital. Among various alternatives to conventional lithium-ion batteries, sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) are promising due to the abundant resources ...
Synthesis, characterization and applications of electroless Ni-B coatings-A review
(
Electrochemical Science Group
, 2016 , Article Review)
Electroless nickel coating process has experienced remarkable modifications since its invention by Branner and Riddell in 1946. This process has proven to be very useful for applying uniform, hard, wear resistant coatings ...
Enhanced photocatalytic degradation of a phenolic compounds' mixture using a highly efficient TiO2/reduced graphene oxide nanocomposite
(
Springer New York LLC
, 2016 , Article)
A nanocomposite (namely rGOTi) was prepared by loading 0.33 weight percent of reduced graphene oxide (rGO) on commercial TiO2 nanoparticles using a hydrothermal method. The as-prepared nanocomposite was characterized using ...
Universal power law behavior of the AC conductivity versus frequency of agglomerate morphologies in conductive carbon nanotube-reinforced epoxy networks
(
John Wiley and Sons Inc.
, 2016 , Article)
The Jonscher universal power law for ac conductivity versus frequency (f = /2) in the dispersion region was tested for a multiwall carbon nanotube/epoxy nanocomposite. The effect of changes in agglomerate morphology on the ...
A comparative study on the performance of hybrid solar cells containing ZnSTe QDs in hole transporting layer and photoactive layer
(
Springer Netherlands
, 2016 , Article)
In this paper, ZnSTe quantum dots-based hybrid solar cells (HSC) with two different device architectures have been investigated. The improved performance of the poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) and [6,6]phenyl C71 butyric ...
Strength and durability of composite concretes with municipal wastes
(
American Concrete Institute
, 2016 , Article)
The influence of different types of polyethylene (PE) substitutions as partial aggregate replacement of microsteel fiber-reinforced self-consolidating concrete (SCC) incorporating incinerator fly ash was investigated. The ...
Impact of moisture contents on the performance of organic bi-layer ITO/OD thermo-electric cells
(
Springer New York LLC
, 2016 , Article)
We propose a bi-layer thermo-electric cell based on elastic indium tin oxide (ITO) substrate and organic semiconductor orange dye (OD). It is observed that thermo-electric voltages are ~30% higher in bi-layer ITO/OD cell ...
Time-resolved photocurrent spectroscopic diagnostics of electrically active defects in AlGaN/GaN High Electron Mobility Transistor (HEMT) structure grown on Si wafers
(
American Scientific Publishers
, 2016 , Article)
Time-resolved photocurrent (TRPC) spectroscopy with a variable-wavelength sub-bandgap light excitation was used to study the dynamics of the decaying photocurrent generated in the heterostructures of the AlGaN/GaN high ...
Eco-Friendly Electromagnetic Interference Shielding Materials from Flexible Reduced Graphene Oxide Filled Polycaprolactone/Polyaniline Nanocomposites
(
Taylor and Francis Inc.
, 2016 , Article)
Hybrid nanocomposites have the unique ability of enhancing material properties due to the existing synergistic effect of the fillers. In this study, the authors report such an eco-friendly hybrid nanocomposite comprising ...
Graphene oxide reinforced polyvinyl alcohol/polyethylene glycol blend composites as high-performance dielectric material
(
Springer Netherlands
, 2016 , Article)
Novel flexible dielectric composites composed of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), polyethylene glycol (PEG), and graphene oxide (GO) with high dielectric constant and low dielectric loss have been developed using facile and ...
