Effect of C Content and Calcination Temperatures on the Characteristics of C-doped TiO2 Photocatalyst

Chen F.Y., Lin Y.-T., National Chung Hsing University, TW

This study is about the effect of carbon content and calcination temperatures on the characteristics of C-doped TiO2 prepared by sol gel method. Synchrotron radiation with high energy and resolution was applied for the identification [...]

Nano-Composite Barrier Anodic Aluminum Oxide for ICD Capacitors

Geiculescu A.C., Stevens J.L., Strange T.F., St. Jude Medical, US

Anodizing of aluminum in solutions such as sulfuric acid has been widely used for many years to produce nano-porous coatings on aluminum for architectural, decorative or abrasion–resistance purposes. It is well characterized in the literature [...]

Superhydrophobic ZnO nanotowers

Farzaneh M., Sacher E., Saleema N., Sarkar D.K., Université du Québec à Chicoutimi, CA

Superhydrophobic zinc oxide nanotowers have been grown successfully on sodalime glass substrates by chemical bath deposition (CBD). Field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) images have revealed the presence of randomly oriented hexagonal patterned ZnO nanotowers. [...]
