Nanotechnology has motivated a tremendous effort in the synthesis approaches to grow free
standing or hierarchical nanomaterials such as nanowires and nanorods. Bottom-up …

One of the most frequently used methods for characterizing thin films is UV–Vis absorption.
The near‐edge region can be fitted to a simple expression in which the intercept gives the …

Zinc oxide (ZnO) is one of the most promising metal oxide semiconductor materials,
particularly for optical and gas sensing applications. The influence of thickness and solvent …

Zinc oxide (ZnO) nanorods have attracted considerable attention in recent years owing to
their piezoelectric properties and potential applications in energy harvesting, sensing, and …

An omniphobic membrane was fabricated for membrane distillation (MD) by effectively
depositing ZnO nanoparticles on a hydrophilic glass fiber (GF) membrane using a chemical …

ZnO nanoparticles (NPs) synthesis on cotton fabric through the formation of biologically
activated ammonia from urea broth in the presence of the ureolytic bacterial species Serratia …

Abstract Rare-earth (Er, La and Yb) doped ZnO nanostructures have been synthesized by
precipitation. The prepared samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning …

ZnFe 2 O 4 thin film has been synthesized by a simple and low cost successive ionic layer
adsorption and reaction (SILAR) method without the use of surfactant or template. The …

We developed a two-step chemical bath deposition method followed by calcination for the
production of ZnO/Co3O4 nanocomposites. In aqueous reactions, ZnO nanotubes were first …

Omniphobic alumina hollow fiber membranes were developed for direct contact membrane
distillation (DCMD) with a low surface tension feed in this study. Alumina hollow fiber (HF) …
