Synthesis and characterisation of Co2+-incorporated ZnO nanoparticles prepared through a sol-gel method
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2016 , Article)
The properties of ZnO nanoparticles were modified by doping them with cobalt ions (Co2+) in various compositions through a sol-gel route. The Co2+-doped ZnO nanoparticles were characterised using X-ray diffraction (XRD), ...
International knowledge mobility and urban development in rapidly globalizing areas: building global hubs for talent in Dubai and Abu Dhabi
(
Taylor & Francis (Routledge)
, 2016 , Article)
This paper examines the processes through which the United Arab
Emirates’ (UAE) cities of Abu Dhabi and Dubai attract and integrate
knowledge workers into their labor markets. It focuses on how the
UAE has acquired the ...
Investigating chlorophyll and nitrogen levels of mangroves at Al-Khor, Qatar: an integrated chemical analysis and remote sensing approach. Environmental Monitoring and Assessment
(
Springer Verlag
, 2016 , Article)
Mangroves are unique ecosystems that dominate tropical and subtropical coastlines around the world. They provide shelter and nursery to wide variety of species such as fish and birds. Around 73 species of mangroves were ...
Correlating structure and electronic band-edge properties in organolead halide perovskites nanoparticles
(
Royal Society of Chemistry
, 2016 , Article)
After having emerged as primary contenders in the race for highly efficient optoelectronics materials, organolead halide perovskites (OHLP) are now being investigated in the nanoscale regime as promising building blocks ...
Trap States and Their Dynamics in Organometal Halide Perovskite Nanoparticles and Bulk Crystals
(
American Chemical Society
, 2016 , Article)
Organometal halide perovskites have attracted tremendous attention for optoelectronic applications. Charge carrier trapping is one of the dominant processes often deteriorating the performance of devices. Here, we investigate ...
Novel fluorinated surfactants for enhanced oil recovery in carbonate reservoirs
(
Wiley-Liss Inc.
, 2016 , Article)
Novel surfactant‐polymer (SP) formulations containing fluorinated amphoteric surfactant (surfactant‐A) and fluorinated anionic surfactant (surfactant‐B) with partially hydrolyzed polyacrylamide (HPAM) were evaluated for ...
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 ...
Thermal characterization of phase change materials based on linear low-density polyethylene, paraffin wax and expanded graphite
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2016 , Article)
Thermal characterization of Phase Change Materials (PCMs) based on linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE), paraffin wax (W) and expanded graphite (EG) is reported in this paper. Investigated PCMs showed high potential for ...
Therapeutic potential of human olfactory bulb neural stem cells for spinal cord injury in rats.
(
Nature Publishing Group
, 2016 , Article)
STUDY DESIGN:
Adult human olfactory bulb neural stem cells (OBNSCs) were isolated from human patients undergoing craniotomy for tumor resection. They were genetically engineered to overexpresses green fluorescent protein ...
Surface plasmon inhibited photo-luminescence activation in CdSe/ZnS core-shell quantum dots
(
Institute of Physics Publishing
, 2016 , Article)
In a composite film of Cdx Sey Zn1-x S1-y gradient core-shell quantum dots (QDs) and gold nanorods (NRs), the optical properties of the QDs are drastically affected by the plasmonic nanoparticles. We provide a careful study ...
