It has been prepared via flocculation of delaminated VS2 with subsequent in situ oxidative polymerization of 3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene (EDOT) with VS2 as a host material in the presence of an external oxidizing agent. The interlayer spacing Of VS2 expands from 5.71 to 14.01 A and this interlayer separation is consistent with the existence of a monolayer of PEDOT in the VS2 framework.

The x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analysis shows the changes in electron density and the shift in binding energy suggesting charge transfer from sulfur atoms upon PEDOT intercalation between MoO3 layers. The room-temperature conductivity for the PEDOT-MoO3 composite is found to be 1.82x10(-1) S cm(-1), which is four orders of magnitude higher than that of the pristine oxide (3.78x10(-5) S cm(-1)). The enhanced double-layer capacitance of the PEDOT-MoO3 nanocomposite (similar to 300 F g(-1)) compared to that (similar to 40 mF g(-1)) of pristine MoO3 is attributed to higher electronic conductivity, enhanced bidimensionality, and increase in surface area of the nanocomposite.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">24</style></issue><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Foreign&lt;/p&gt;</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">3.142</style></custom4></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Murugan, A.

The interlayer spacing of MoO3 upon intercalation expands from 6.93 to 13.46 A and is followed by an exfoliation and restacking process. The resulting nanocomposite is characterized by powder x-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and four probe conductivity measurements. The application potential of this nanocomposite as an electrode material for electrochemical supercapacitors has been investigated, highlighting the unusual enhancement of double layer capacitance of poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiphene) (PEDOT-MoO3) nanocomposites (similar to 300 F g(-1)) compared to that of pristine MoO3 (similar to 40 mF g(-1)). The improved electrochemical performance is attributed to the intercalation of electronically conducting PEDOT between MoO3 layers with enhanced bidimensionality and an increase in the surface area.

The precipitate was calcined at different temperatures ranging from 100 to 800 degrees C and phase evolution of NiTiO3 was investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD) studies. It is observed that nickel titanate was formed at 750 degrees C. For comparison, NiTiO3 was also prepared by standard ceramic process.

The nanostructured Eu3+ doped Y2O3 is characterized by x-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, and photoluminescence. The emission spectrum shows transitions from the excited 5D(0) state to F-7(J) (J=0,1,2,3,4) levels of the Eu3+ ion. The most intense peak around 612 nm is due to the D-5(0)-&amp;gt; F-7(2) transition, expected from the Judd-Ofelt selection rules [B. R. Judd, Phys. Rev. 127, 750 (1962); G. S. Ofelt, J. Chem.

The interlayer spacing of crystalline V(2)O(5) expands from 0.43 to 1.41 nm by the intercalation of PEDOT nanoribbons prepared by a microwave irradiation method. Cyclic voltammetry studies of PEDOT-V(2)O(5) hybrid at a slow scan rate of 0.058 mVs(-1) between 2.0-4.3 V vs. Li/ Li(+), demonstrates that structural transitions Of V(2)O(5) are suppressed and more facile intercalation features appear in terms of well-defined reversible cathodic and anodic peaks when compared to that at higher scan rate. Electrochemical Impedance studies of PEDOT-V(2)O(5) hybrid as cathode at ambient temperature with lithium metal foil as both counter and reference electrodes in 1 M LiPF(6) in a mixture of ethylene and diethylcarbonate (50:50 by volume) between the range 2.0-4.3 V reveals the usefulness of these materials. The observed capacity fading during cycling in terms of surface passivation and structural transformations is also investigated by CV, EIS and XRD analysis. (C) 2007 Elsevier B.V.

Nanocrystalline meso-TiO2 also has been synthesized with hexadecylamine template for comparison through known procedure. The meso-TiO2 materials were characterized by X-ray diffraction, FT-IR, UV-Vis absorbance spectra, thermal analysis, SEM, HRTEM and textural properties through N-2 adsorption-desorption isotherms. Spherical shape particles in a range of few hundred nanometers are obtained in the template free method. Above systematic characterization provides direct indications toward the mechanism of formation of meso-TiO2 in the template free method.
