The aim of this study was to experimentally assess the luminescence efficiency of a cerium fluoride (CeF3) inorganic scintillator in crystal form as a possible alternative to high-luminescence but hygroscopic cerium bromide (CeBr3). The experiments w...

FeCo2O4/MoS2 binary composite catalysts were prepared by the hydrothermal method and calcination method. In this paper, the morphology and structure of the materials were characterized by means of SEM, EDS, XRD, and XPS. It was found that MoS2 has hi...

This paper reports the designing and testing, as well as the processing and testing, of a flexible piezoresistive sensor for pressure-sensing applications, utilizing a composite film of graphene/polyvinylidene fluoride (Gr/PVDF). Graphene serves as t...

Given the increase in current density in the constituent materials of electrical systems, improving the electrical conductivity of these materials, particularly copper (Cu), is crucial. This would also help to mitigate the heat generated by Joule hea...

BiFeO3-related perovskite-type materials attract a lot of attention from the viewpoint of applications and fundamental science. In this work, we prepared two modifications of heavily Mn-doped BiFeO3 with the composition of BiFe0.6Mn0.4O3. A high-pres...

This investigation explores the potential of enhancing aqueous zinc-ion batteries (AZIBs) through the introduction of a novel cathode material, NH4V4O10 (NVO), combined with reduced graphene oxide (rGO). Utilizing Density Functional Theory (DFT), it...

Bioactive glasses in the CaO–MgO–Na2O–P2O5–SiO2–CaF2 system are highly promising materials for bone and dental restorative applications. Furthermore, if thermally treated, they can crystallize into diopside–fluorap...

Nanoparticles of iron and iron oxides, as well as their composites, are of great scientific and technological interest. However, their properties and sustainability strongly depend on the preparation methods. Here, we present an original approach to...

To mitigate the greenhouse effect and environmental pollution caused by the consumption of fossil fuels, recent research has focused on developing renewable energy sources and new high-efficiency, environmentally friendly energy storage technologies....

C–H bond activation is a crucial synthetic strategy widely utilized in both academic and industrial settings. Due to the strong and kinetically inert nature of the C–H bond, its functionalization typically requires metal-based catalysts....
