Ag and Sn Nanoparticles to Enhance the Near-Infrared Absorbance of a-Si:H Thin Films
Silver (Ag) and tin (Sn) nanoparticles (NPs) were deposited by thermal evaporation onto heated glass substrates with a good control of size, shape and surface coverage. This process has the advantage of allowi...

Study of Heavy Metals in Wild Edible Mushrooms under Different Pollution Conditions by X-Ray Fluorescence Spectrometry
In this work we studied and compared the metal uptake in edible mushrooms (Lepiota procera, Boletus badius, Boletus edulis, Tricholoma equestry, Lactarius deliciosus, Cantarelus tubalformis and Cantarelus edulis)...
