Magnetic Phase Transitions in Cobalt Chromite Nanoparticles
Cobalt chromite (CoCr2O4), an insulating normal spinel compound, is a potential multiferroic material. We report that pure, nanosize CoCr2O4 particles are synthesized through a conventional coprecipiation techniq...

Observation of grain growth in swift heavy ion irradiated NiO thin films
NiO thin films grown on Si(100) substrates by electron beam evaporation, were sintered at 500 °C and 700 °C. The films were irradiated with 120 MeV Au9+ ions. Irradiation had different effects depending upon the ...

Structural and magnetic properties of Fe doped NiO
Mott-Hubbard anti-ferromagnetic insulator, NiO shows p-type semiconducting behaviour due to vacancy at Ni2+ site in its bunsenite structure. We report the modification of structural and magnetic order in NiO on F...

Evolution of phase purity and texture on annealing of BiFeO3 thin film prepared by sol-gel technique
We report preparation of phase pure BiFeO3 thin films on glass, ITO and Si(100) substrates through chemical route using spin coating technique. Sol-gel process was adopted to prepare the films using bismuth nitra...

Effect of cobalt substitution on microstructure and magnetic properties in ZnO nanoparticles
Ferromagentic semiconductors have been actively pursued because of their potential as spin polarized carrier sources and easy integration into semiconductor technology. One such material, ZnO has been shown to...

Thermally Induced Structural Transformations on Polymorphous Silicon
Polymorphous Si is a nanostructured form of hydrogenated amorphous Si that contains a small fraction of Si nanocrystals or clusters. Its thermally induced transformations such as relaxation, dehydrogenation, a...

Si-N nanowire formation from Silicon nano and microparticles.
We report silicon nitride whisker formation from hydrogenated amorphous silicon (a-Si:H) nanoparticles grown by PECVD for the first time. We compared the results with the kinetics of whisker formation from bal...
