Crystals, Volume 10, Issue 7

A novel single-crystal growth method was developed, using arc plasma and metal melt, for a quick survey of high melting point materials. Single crystals of Yb-doped Lu2O3, Lu0.388Hf0.612O1.806, and Lu0.18Hf0.82O1.91, with melting points of 2460, 2900...

Recently, different biomedical applications of aluminum oxide (Al2O3) and zinc oxide (ZnO) have been studied, and they have displayed good biocompatible behavior. For this reason, this study explores nanolaminates of [Al2O3/ZnO]n obtained by atomic l...

Fabricating GaN-based light-emitting diodes (LEDs) on a silicon (Si) substrate, which is compatible with the widely employed complementary metal–oxide–semiconductor (CMOS) circuits, is extremely important for next-generation high-performa...

We describe here a new design strategy for obtaining boron complexes with aggregation- and crystallization-induced emission (AIE and CIE, respectively) properties based on the introduction of skeletal distortion. According to our recent results, desp...

In total, 13 ligands R-salen (N,N’-bis(5-R-salicylidene)ethylenediamine (where R = MeO, Me, OH, H, Cl, Br, NO2) and R-salphen (N,N’-bis(5-R-salicylidene)-1,2-phenylenediamine (where R = MeO, Me, OH, H, Cl, Br) and their 13 nickel complexe...

This review is devoted to discussion of the latest advances in design and applications of boron imidazolate frameworks (BIFs) that are a particular sub-family of zeolite-like metal–organic frameworks family. A special emphasis is made on nanost...

The utilization of layered nanofillers in polymer matrix, as reinforcement, has attracted great interest in the 21st century. This can be attributed to the high aspect ratios of the nanofillers and the attendant substantial improvement in different p...

Among the malaria-causing parasites, the deadliest is Plasmodium falciparum, which accounts for the majority of the fatalities. As the infection progresses inside erythrocytes, major cellular and metabolic changes take place. For its own growth, the...

In the present study, a conventional plenum window was incorporated with perforated thin box in order to enhance its performance at frequency range which centralized at 1000 Hz as most of the common noise sources at city nowadays are centralizing aro...

The evolution of microstructure and texture in three non-equiatomic CrMnFeCoNi high-entropy alloys (HEAs) with varying stacking fault energy (SFE) has been studied in up to 90% rolling reductions at both room and cryogenic temperature. All the HEAs d...
