Description:: Magnetic nanostructures (MNS) have become the subject of intense interest due to their superparamagnetic properties and consequently their potential uses in medical diagnostics and therapeutics. In this study, monodisperse magnetite MNSs were synthesized via thermal decomposition of iron(III) acetylacetonate and transferred to aqueous solution using 11-aminoundecanoic acid as the surfactant....

Description:: Semiconductor oxides are important materials in gas-detection systems and can be improved by enhancing the sensitivity and selectivity of oxide sensors to specific gases. This research investigates the effect of palladium dopant (Pd) on the hydrogen gas-sensing ability of ZnO 2-D nanostructures. Photolithography was used to pattern electrodes on various...

Description:: In this study attention was focused on a templated fabrication of Au nanotubular structures that could carry a highly magnetic entity such as cobalt. In brief, experimentation was performed to create Co@Au core-shell nanorods of different lengths. The preliminary core-shell structures were first characterized using x-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron...

Description:: The broad-based implementation of thermoelectric materials in converting heat to electricity hinges on the achievement of high conversion efficiency. Here we demonstrate a thermoelectric figure of merit ZT of 2.5 at 923 K by the cumulative integration of several performance-enhancing concepts in a single material system. Using non-equilibrium processing we show...
