Exploring the use of fast electron backscattering for the determination of the C/O ratios: possible applications to graphene oxide and reduced graphene oxide

Exploring the use of fast electron backscattering for the determination of the C/O ratios: possible applications to graphene oxide and reduced graphene oxide

GO and rGO are carbon nanostructures with a wide range of applications. The carbon/oxygen ratio (C/O) is a basic parameter that determines many of its essential properties. The large-scale production of these materials requires the use of fast and repr…

Antifungal activities of chitosan nanoparticles against Fusarium pseudensiforme on durian trees

Antifungal activities of chitosan nanoparticles against Fusarium pseudensiforme on durian trees

Antifungal nano-biomaterials are gaining interest as an effective strategy for controlling fungal pathogens because of their nontoxicity, biodegradability, biocompatibility, and high activity. The study aimed to present an antifungal agent, squid chito…

Prediction of ferromagnetism in GaN:Ag and SiC:Ag nanotubes

Prediction of ferromagnetism in GaN:Ag and SiC:Ag nanotubes

Ferromagnetism in single-walled (6,0) GaN(SiC):Ag nanotubes were studied based on ab initio simulations within a pseudopotential method. For the GaN:Ag single-walled nanosystems, the width of the band gap reduces with the increase of dopant concentrati…
