This study is devoted to investigating the stability of metal–organic framework (MOF)-hybrid perovskites consisting of CH3NH3PbI3 (MAPbI3) and UiO-66 without a functional group and UiO-66 with different COOH, NH2,and F functional groups under e...

Generation of hydrogen fuel at cathode during the electrolysis of seawater can be economically beneficial considering the vast availability of the electrolyte although it faces sluggishness caused by the anode reactions. In this regard a carbon nanos...

In this work, an AlGaN-based Deep-Ultraviolet Light-Emitting Diode structure has been designed and simulated for the zincblende and wurtzite approaches, where the polarization effect is included. DFT analysis was performed to determine the band gap d...

MXenes are a class of two-dimensional nanomaterials with a rich chemistry, hydrophilic surface and mechano-ceramic nature, and have been employed in a wide variety of applications ranging from medical and sensing devises to electronics, supercapacito...

In the emerging process-based transistors, random telegraph noise (RTN) has become a critical reliability problem. However, the conventional method to analyze RTN properties may not be suitable for the advanced silicon-on-insulator (SOI)-based transi...

The COVID-19 pandemic has increased the need for developing disinfectant surfaces as well as reducing the spread of infections on contaminated surfaces and the contamination risk from the fomite route. The present work reports on the antiviral activi...

Ternary BNC nanotubes were modeled and characterized through a periodic density functional theory approach with the aim of investigating the influence on the structural, electronic, mechanical, and transport properties of the quantity and pattern of...

In this study, a silicon carbon nitride (SiCN) thin film was grown with a thickness of 5~70 nm by the plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) method, and the oxygen permeation characteristics were analyzed according to the partial pressure...

Lithium–sulfur (Li-S) batteries are considered as among the most promising electrochemical energy storage devices due to their high theoretical energy density and low cost. However, the inherently complex electrochemical mechanism in Li-S batte...

In this work, we report a systematic study of the influence of film thickness on the structural and magnetic properties of epitaxial thin films of Pr2−δNi1−xMn1+xO6−y (PNMO) double perovskite grown on top of two different (001...
