The refractive index of solids gauges their transparency to incident light, while the energy gap determines the threshold for light absorption. This paper provides a mathematical formulation for the relationship between the refractive index and the e...
The solution casting technique is utilized to fabricate blank and CuO-doped polyvinyl alcohol/chitosan (PVA/CS) blends for eco-friendly applications. The structure and surface morphologies of prepared samples were explored by Fourier transform infrar...
Several, nearly-1-µm-thick, pure, unhydrogenated amorphous-silicon (a-Si) thin layers were grown at high rates by non-equilibrium rf-magnetron Ar-plasma sputtering (RFMS) onto room-temperature low-cost glass substrates. A new approach is employed for...
A series of single-walled carbon nanotube/titanium dioxide (SWCNTs/TiO2) composites were prepared by the incorporation of various concentrations (0, 5, 10, 20 V.%) of SWCNTs in TiO2. The prepared solutions were successfully formed on silicon and quar...
In the current study, polymer nanocomposites (NCPs) based on poly (vinyl alcohol) (PVA) with altered refractive index and absorption edge were synthesized by means of a solution cast technique. The characterization techniques of UV–Vis spectroscopy a...
A quenching technique was used to prepare the chalcogenide system of the Se60−xGe35Ga5Sbx (x = 0, 5, and 10 at. %), which was deposited as thin films onto glass substrates using a thermal evaporation technique. X-ray diffraction patterns w...
The influence of dispersing Al-metal complex on the optical properties of PVA was investigated using UV–visible spectroscopy. Polymer composite films with various Al3+-complex amounts in the PVA matrix were arranged by solution casting technique by m...
Conducting poly orthophenylene diamine polymer (PoPDA) was synthesized via the oxidative polymerization route. A poly(o-phenylene diamine) (PoPDA)/titanium dioxide nanoparticle mono nanocomposite [PoPDA/TiO2]MNC was synthesized using the sol–gel meth...
The film casting method is implemented to synthesize a series of films consisting of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) films and 4 wt%, 8 wt%, and 12 wt% lead sulfide (PbS) nanoparticles (NPs). X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (...
In this study, thin films of Cerium Oxide CeO2 were fabricated using the sol–gel technique and deposited onto a glass substrate. The annealing process was carried out at various temperatures ranging from 200 to 600 °C to investiga...
