Platinum nanoflowers (Pt NFs) composed of an ordered assembly of nanoparticles were synthesized by an ethanol reduction of [PtCl6]2– under a reflux condition (85 °C) at pH 2.5 in the presence of PVP (molecular weight ...

This paper presents a study of adsorption and vibrational features of folic acid, using surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS). A gold-capped silicon nanopillar (Au NP) with a height of 600 nm and a width of 120 nm was...

Murraya paniculata (MP) can be used as a reducing agent to produce silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) using a simple procedure. AgNPs are characterized in morphological and chemical properties, antioxidant activity, and cytoto...

In this chapter, we will focus on a specific X‐raybased technique among those employed in surface science and which is especially suitable for the study of self‐assembled nanocrystals: Grazing Incidence Small Angle X...

In the present work, the synergistic effect of multiwalled carbon nanotubes and glycidyl polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxanes on the compression after impact behaviour of multifunctional carbon fibre–reinforced epoxy ...

In this article, we report the measurement of underwater aerophobicity, through the captive-bubble method, for different polymeric coatings employed to protect microscale and nanoscale flexible electronic devices for sea...

The catalytic conversion of palm oil was carried out over four zeolite catalysts—Y, ZSM-5, Y-ZSM-5 hybrid, and Y/ZSM-5 composite—to produce jet biofuel with high amount of alkanes and low amount of aromatic hydrocarb...

Executive Summary/Abstract Background Survey research and analysis of police records, hospital emergency rooms, and women's shelters have clearly established the severity of the intimate partner violence problem and the ...

We investigated the effects of dopants on epitaxial growth of Si NWs, with an emphasis on synthesizing vertical epitaxial Si NW arrays on Si (111) substrates. We found that addition of boron with a B:Si feed-in atomic ra...

Abstract Background Childhood malnutrition is a major public health concern as it is associated with significant short‐ and long‐term morbidity and mortality. Objectives To comprehensively review the evidence for the...

Improved street lighting serves many functions and is used in both public and private settings. The prevention of personal and property crime is one of its objectives in public space, which is the main focus of this syst...

Abstract Background The last two decades have seen a significant decrease in mortality for children

In this study, we evaluated a nanoscale random rubbed structure (nRRS) used as a scattering layer in organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) through an innovative manufacturing method. The rubbing technique, which is conve...

Abstract Background There are approximately 1 billion people in the world with some form of disability. This corresponds to approximately 15% of the world's population (World Report on Disability, 2011). The majority of ...

To improve the photocatalytic property of titanium dioxide, titanous sulfate as the titanium source, cobalt nitrate hexahydrate as the cobalt source, undoped and Co 2+ -doped titania nanotubes were prepared via coprecipi...

This Campbell systematic review examines the impact of exercise interventions on the self‐esteem of children and young people. The review summarise findings from 23 studies conducted in the USA, Canada, Australia and N...

Abstract Background Adequate housing is a basic human right. The many millions of people experiencing homelessness (PEH) have a lower life expectancy and more physical and mental health problems. Practical and effective ...

This Campbell systematic review examines the effectiveness of e‐learning in improving evidence‐based health care (EBHC) knowledge and practice. Compared to no learning, pure e‐learning improves EBHC knowledge and s...

This paper describes an easy and time-saving strategy for the fabrication of heterogeneous nanotubular arrays of TiO2-CdS (TCHNTAs) on transparent conductive glass (FTO) and their photoelectrochemical properties. The use...

In this study, novel titanium dioxide (TiO2) and zinc oxide (ZnO) hybrid photocatalysts in the form of nanofibres were fabricated by a facile method using electrospinning followed by a calcination process. Scanning elect...

In this article, a model-based genetic algorithm is used to determine the optical properties of nanostructured zinc oxide single-sided nano thin films that does not depend on the interference fringes of optical transmiss...

Ultrafine pure and Mn-doped SnO2 nanoparticles (NPs) were synthesized via the microwave technique. They were produced using tin chloride and hexamethylenetetramine at the molar ratio of 1:20. The concentrations of Mn in ...
