Low Platinum-Loaded Molybdenum Co-catalyst for the Hydrogen Evolution Reaction in Alkaline and Acidic Media
(
American Chemical Society
, 2022 , Article)
Developing an efficient catalytic system for electrolysis with reduced platinum (Pt) loading while maintaining performance comparable to bulk platinum metal is important to decrease costs and improve scalability of the ...
Aluminium doped ZnO nanostructures for efficient photodegradation of indigo carmine and azo carmine G in solar irradiation
(
Springer Nature
, 2023 , Article)
Aluminium doped zinc oxide (AZO) nanomaterials (AlxZn1-xO) with x fraction varying as 0.02 and 0.04 were synthesized using the auto-combustion method using glycine as a fuel. The synthesized catalysts were characterized ...
An Advanced Quaternary Composite for Efficient Water Splitting
(
Springer Nature
, 2023 , Article)
Electrochemical water splitting is a promising pathway for effective hydrogen (H2) evolution in energy conversion and storage, with electrocatalysis playing a key role. Developing efficient, cost-effective and stable ...
A review on high performance photovoltaic cells and strategies for improving their efficiency
(
Springer Nature
, 2022 , Article)
The introduction of a practical solar cell by Bell Laboratory, which had an efficiency of approximately 6%, signified photovoltaic technology as a potentially viable energy source. Continuous efforts have been made to ...
Understanding the mechanics of complex topology of the 3D printed Anthill architecture
(
Oxford University Press
, 2022 , Article)
The present work aimed to investigate the deformation behavior of complex ant mound architectures under compression. We have used the cement casting method to extract four different ant nest morphologies. These casted ...
Facile fabrication of CuO nanoparticles via microwave-assisted method: photocatalytic, antimicrobial and anticancer enhancing performance
(
Taylor & Francis
, 2022 , Article)
In this current research, biogenic Copper oxide (CuO) nanoparticles were successfully produced by the green method, i.e. microwave-assisted process using Andrographis paniculata as a source. Microwave-assisted biogenic CuO ...
Design and Development of Inexpensive Paper-Based Chemosensors for Detection of Divalent Copper
(
Springer Nature
, 2023 , Article)
Abstract: Simple, portable, and low-cost paper-based sensors are alternative devices that have the potential to replace high-cost sensing technologies. The compatibility of the paper base biosensors for both chemical and ...
A paper-based colourimetric sensor for sodium sulfite detection in beverages
(
Springer Nature
, 2023 , Article)
Sulfite is a common food additive that prevents oxidation from damaging food nutrients, and it has long been used in the food industry as a bleaching agent. It can harm the human body if taken wrongly or excessively. In ...
Photosensitivity and Photocatalytic Activity of ZnO Thin Films Annealed in Different Environmental Conditions
(
Springer Nature
, 2022 , Article)
The microwave-assisted successive ionic layer adsorption and reaction (mSILAR) deposition method was employed for the synthesis of nano-polycrystalline zinc oxide (ZnO) thin film. In this study, annealing of the prepared ...
A Family of 2D-MXenes: Synthesis, Properties, and Gas Sensing Applications
(
American Chemical Society
