A series of core-shell type nanoparticle samples of MnxZn1-xFe2O4 were prepared by auto-combustion technique with x=0.3, 0.5, 0.7, 1.0. Subsequent to the structural and electrical property investigation the samples were ...

Germanate glass has been synthesised keeping Al2O3 fixed at 10mol percent with Neodymium oxide and Praseodymium oxide varying from 5 mol percent to 10 mol percent. The effect of the rare-earth inclusion on the structure ...

We investigate zero temperature and finite temperature properties of the Bose Hubbard Model in the hard core limit using Random Phase Approximation (RPA) and Cluster Mean Field Theory (CMFT). We show that our RPA calculations ...

Melt processability of metal halide hybrids (MHH), suitable for fabricating thin-film devices and accessing glassy phases of compounds, has received current research interest. Successful melt processability requires ...

Red persistent luminescent diopside nanoparticles doped with Mn(2+) and codoped with RE(3+) (Eu(2+), Dy(3+)) have been obtained by sol-gel method.The influence of codoping rare earth ions on the persistent luminescence was ...

Polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) hydrogels, cross-linked with varying concentrations of borax, were studied with Small Angle Neutron Scattering (SANS), X-ray Diffraction (XRD) and Differential Thermal Analysis (DTA). The SANS data ...

The work carried out by our research group over the last couple of decades in the context of quantitative crystal engineering involves the analysis of intermolecular interactions such as carbon (tetrel) bonding, pnicogen ...

We report results of the first studies on the thermoelectric power (TEP) of the magnetic heusler alloy Ni(2.19)Mn(0.81)Ga. We explain the observed temperature dependence of the TEP in terms of the crystal field splitting ...

Nanoparticles of ferrite materials comprising the metal ions of Manganese and Zinc were chemically synthesized by co-precipitation method. The designated ferrite X- ray diffraction peaks and characteristic ferrite absorption ...

Metal-halide perovskites are rapidly emerging crystalline materials that are reasonably preferred as leading aspirant for applications in optoelectronic and thermoelectric devices. In this paper, we have thoroughly reviewed ...
