Varying the concentration of the surfactant and the capping agent has been found to critically govern the nature of the nanoparticles prepared. It is observed that at an optimum concentration of SDS and oleic acid, nearly monodisperse Ni nanoparticles are obtained that form highly ordered hexagonally close-packed structures on electron microscopy grids by a simple drop coating procedure. It is also shown that the presence of oleic acid is necessary for the stability of the Ni nanoparticles synthesized. Structural and magnetic characterizations of the nanoparticles are also presented.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">9</style></issue><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">4.520</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%">Kandpal, Manoj</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sharan, Chandrashekhar</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Poddar, Pankaj</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Prashanthi, K.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Apte, Prakash R.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Rao, V.

The piezoelectric coefficient of ZnO nanoparticles was observed to be ranging between 15 and 23 pm/V, which is the highest reported. These experimental studies support the recent theoretical predictions where the piezoelectric coefficients in ZnO nanoparticles were found to be higher compared to the thin films because of the surface relaxation induced volume reductions in the nanometer scale. The photo-curable property of these polymer composite films is exploited to demonstrate fabrication of a micro-cantilever test structure. (C) 2012 American Institute of Physics.

The analysis of bacterial growth curves for various concentrations of ZnO nanorods indicates that Gram positive and Gram negative bacterial cells show inhibition at concentrations of similar to 64 and similar to 256 mu g/mL respectively. The marked difference in susceptibility towards nanorods was also validated by spread plate and disk diffusion methods. In addition, the scanning electron micrographs show a clear damage to the cells via changed morphology of the cells from rod to coccoid etc. The confocal optical microscopy images of these cells also demonstrate the reduction in live cell count in the presence of ZnO nanorods. These, results clearly indicate that the antibacterial activity of ZnO nanorods is higher towards Gram positive bacterium than Gram negative bacterium which indicates that the structure of the cell wall might play a major role in the interaction with nanostructured materials and shows high sensitivity to the particle concentration.

In this contribution, we report the fabrication of surfactant-free, radially assembled, 3D titania (rutile-phase) microsphere arrays (3D-TMSAs) composed of bundles of single-crystalline titania nanowires (NWs) directly on fluorine-doped conducting oxide (FTO) substrates with tunable architecture. The effects of growth parameters on the morphology of the 3D-TMSAs have been studied thoroughly. The 3D-TMSAs grown on the FTO-substrate showed superior photon-harvesting owing to the increase in light-scattering. The photocatalytic and photon to electron conversion efficiency of dye sensitized solar cells (DSSC), where the optimized 3D-TMSAs were used as an anode, showed around 44% increase in the photoconversion efficiency compared to that of Degussa P-25 as a result of the synergistic effect of higher surface area and enhanced photon scattering probability. The TMSA film showed superhydrophilicity without any prior UV irradiation. In addition, the presence of bundles of almost parallel NWs led to the formation of arrays of microcapacitors, which showed stable dielectric performance. The fabrication of single-crystalline, oriented, self-assembled TMSAs with bundles of titania nanowires as their building blocks deposited on transparent conducting oxide (TCO) substrates has vast potential in the area of photoelectrochemical research.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">12</style></issue><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">7.145</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%">Gutierrez-Naranjo, David</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Holguin-Momaca, Jose T.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Solis-Canto, Oscar O.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gupta, Preeti</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Poddar, Pankaj</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Espinosa Magana, Francisco</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Olive-Mendez, Sion F.</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Polycrystalline MnGe2 thin films on InAs(001) substrates</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Thin Solid Films</style></secondary-title></titles><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2018</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">JUL</style></date></pub-dates></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">657</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">38-41</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">We report on the growth of MnGe2 thin films on InAs(001) substrates using radio frequency-magnetron cosputtering.

Measurements of the magnetic field and temperature dependence of the magnetization revealed that the MnGe2 thin films are ferromagnetic with a magnetization of 280 kAm(-1) and a Curie temperature of 62 K. Additionally, an antiferromagnetic component is observed at low temperatures, which may arise atomic disorder at the grain boundaries between MnGe2 crystallites.</style></abstract><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Article</style></work-type><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1.879</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%">Jain, Manisha</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Joshi, Bhavana</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Poddar, Pankaj</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Poly(N-vinylpyrrolidone)-assisted crystal growth of zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF-67) and electrochemical properties of its derivatives for flexible supercapacitors</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Crystal Growth and Design </style></secondary-title></titles><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2024</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">APR </style></date></pub-dates></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">24</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">3179-3194</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;
	A simple and explicit wet chemical method enables the room-temperature crystallization of the zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF-67) using cotton-cloth (CC) as a substrate; where time-dependent Avrami's kinetic studies demonstrated sluggish nucleation and fast crystal growth resulting in unprecedented morphologies-truncated cubes [synthesized without poly(N-vinylpyrrolidone); PVP], and rhombic dodecahedra (with PVP) with average sizes ranging from 500 nm to 1.41 mu m; wherein amphiphilic PVP plays a crucial function of structure directing agent by modulation of complex formation and deprotonation equilibria. To study the potential of pristine ZIF-67 (ZP0) and PVP-functionalized ZIF-67 (ZP50, ZP100, and ZP200) grown on the CC substrate for application as a flexible electrode in supercapacitors, ZP0, ZP50, ZP100, and ZP200 were annealed to form CZP0, CZP50, and CZP100, respectively. Areal capacitances of 181 and 214 mFcm(-2) were achieved at a current density of 1 mAcm(-2) and a potential window of 1.6 V for CZP0 and CZP100, respectively, and compared to the derivatives without PVP; CZP100 exhibited a superior energy density of 76.3 mu Whcm(-2) and a capacitance retention of 84.3% after 5000 cycles at a current density of 0.5 mAcm(-2).&lt;/p&gt;
