Synthesis and characterization of solution-processable Cd1–xZnxS nanorods for photocatalytic degradation of tetracycline
Photocatalytic degradation of broadband antibiotics like tetracycline (TC) under visible-light irradiation is considered as an efficient and cost-effective protocol for eliminating it from the aqueous medium. ...

Role of dye-induced corrosion in determining the efficiency of ZnO-based DSSC: the case of ZnO nanoforest in N719
ZnO-based DSSCs usually show less efficiency than TiO2-based cells despite ZnO being better transporter of electrons. More surprisingly, ZnO nanoforest, which provides seamless electron pathways and large surface...

Unusual Ferromagnetic to Paramagnetic Change and Bandgap Shift in ZnS:Cr Nanoparticles
We report the chemical synthesis of Cr-doped ZnS nanocrystallites without using any cap** ligand/surfactant. An unusual increase in bandgap observed for Cr-doped samples was understood in terms of the Burste...

Hysteresis in magnetoresistance and formation of spin glass like structure in PVA capped Fe3O4
Here, we report the temperature dependent hysteresis in the magneto transport in PVA capped Fe3O4 nanoparticles. The synthesis of the nanoparticles of size 10–15 nm were carried out via co-precipitation method fo...

Interface States of Fe3O4/Si Interfacial Structure and Effect of Magnetic Field
Electronic transport across Fe3O4/Si interfacial structure has been studied with and without the application of magnetic fields along the interfacial plane, up to 8 kG. Current–voltage (I–V) and capacitance–volta...

One pot synthesis of RGO/PbS nanocomposite and its near infrared photoresponse study
We report the synthesis and characterization of lead sulfide (PbS) decorated reduced graphene oxide (RGO) nanocomposite materials. The materials were synthesized in a one-step solvothermal reaction where the r...
