ELECTROREDUCTION OF CO2 AND CO TO HYDROCARBONS

AND ALCOHOLS: CHALLENGES

Marc Fontecave
Collège de France, Paris, France
Email: marc.fontecave@college-de-france.fr

ABSTRACT

Conversion of carbon dioxide into hydrocarbons (methane, ethylene) and alcohols (ethanol,
propanol) using renewable electricity as an energy source is an attractive strategy for storing
renewable energies (solar and wind energy) into the form of chemical energy (a fuel) and using
CO2 as a raw material for the synthesis of chemical products. However, CO 2 activation is a
complex process which implies multiple electron and proton transfers, resulting in the need for
stable, efficient and selective catalysts in order to make this strategy a practical industrial option.
Here we discuss our ongoing research using original Cu-based catalytic materials and addressing
several issues associated with CO2 electrolysis, such as activity, selectivity, carbonate formation
and carbon loss. This led us to investigate the effect of molecular modification of catalyst
surfaces [1,2,3], optimization of electrolysis under acidic conditions [3,4]. We will also discuss
CO electroreductrion electroreduction into ethylene and alcohols, as a way to favor formation of
multicarbon compounds and limit carbon loss [5,6,7].

Keywords: carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, electrolysis, ethylene, alcohols, catalysis.

ABSTRACT

The group III-nitride compound semiconductor nanophotonic structures have gained

considerable interest because of their wide range of photonic applications for light-emitting
devices (LEDs), quantum emitters, and polariton devices. Here, we present classical and
quantum light generation and control with group III-nitride nanophotonic structures. First, we
demonstrated sub-micrometer LED arrays using mask-less and etching-free pixilation technique
[1]. Second, we achieved site-selective single-photon generation from site-controlled InGaN
quantum dots formed on pyramidal array structures [2]. Third, we accomplished room-
temperature polariton condensates within GaN-based single hexagonal microcavity [3].
Moreover, the GaN single microcavity with a loss-controllable substrate allowed us to explore
the polariton-based non-Hermitian system at room temperature [4], providing an excellent
platform for investigating non-Hermitian physics.

ABSTRACT

The unique characteristics of coinage metal clusters and nanoparticles continue to raise interest in
the scientific community. The main asset of these small chunks of material is the tunability of
their functional properties by size and composition. Because of unique optical properties and
chemical reactivity they currently are finding their way tos novel applications. While the study of
small clusters in the gas phase is important from a fundamental point of view, a greater challenge
is to maintain these unique properties after deposition on surfaces or embedding in various
scaffolds. This is important because that way they are readily available for advanced studies and
innovative applications. In this talk I will report on studies of small clusters on various substrates.
Focus will be on detailed investigations of the electronic structure and morphology of individual
cobalt, gold and boron clusters deposited on atomically-flat thin NaCl on Au(111) surfaces.
Experiments are performed with scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy at liquid
helium temperature. Both geometric structure and electronic structure are studied with density
functional theory computations as well. For several clusters atomic resolution of the cluster
images was obtained, allowing to identify geometry and facets, and also allowing to count the
number of atoms in a single cluster. For mid-size species, size dependent penetration through
NaCl bi- and tri-layers was observed. Detailed investigations of size-selected deposited cluster
assemblies allowed to measure electronic structure and quantum confinement effects, as well as
cluster mobility and Smoluchovsky ripening behavior. In case of deposition of individual atoms,
substitutional incorporation of atoms within the top NaCl layer has been detected [1]. For
magnetic atoms the dependence of the magnetic coupling between neighboring atoms was
investigated via spatially resolved measurement of the local density of states, while inelastic
electron tunneling spectroscopy allowed to observe high spin excitation energies of individual
substitutional dopants in an ionic thin film [2].

Email: johan.akerman@physics.gu.se

ABSTRACT

Mutually synchronized spin hall nano-oscillators (SHNOs) have emerged as one of the most
promising types of spintronic devices for neuromorphic computing as individual SHNOs in large
arrays can be voltage and memristor controlled. Very recently, the first experimental steps tos
SHNO-based Ising Machines were also taken, and their potential was evaluated theoretically. In my
talk, I will describe the general idea behind Ising Machines and some of the existing
implementations such as D-Waves Quantum Annealer and the Optical Coherent Ising Machine
from NTT Research. I will then discuss how we have tried to build similar Ising Machines using
SHNO arrays. I will describe the key elements required for such an SHNO-based Ising Machine,
including much larger mutually synchronized SHNO arrays of up to 15,000 oscillators and
individual electrical, memristive, and optical control of SHNOs. Time permitting, I will also discuss
our work on spin wave and surface acoustic wave based Ising Machines.

QUANTUM COHERENCE IN A QUANTUM RING

ABSTRACT

As a consequence of the quantum coherence in a quantum ring [1,2], we have observed optical
Aharonov-Bohm oscillations in a single GaAs/GaAlAs quantum ring, where the quantization of
ring orbital angular momentum states can also be revealed in terms of quantum beats. We also
found those oscillations can be controlled by excitation intensity. With a weak excitation
intensity, the optical Aharonov-Bohm oscillation period of biexcitons was observed to be half
that of excitons in accordance with the period expected for a two-exciton Wigner molecule.
When the excitation intensity is increased by an order of magnitude, a gradual deviation of the
Wigner molecule condition occurs with decreased oscillation periods and diamagnetic
coefficients for both excitons and biexcitons along with a spectral shift. These results suggest
that the effective orbit radii and rim widths of electrons and holes in a single quantum ring can be
modified by light intensity via photo-excited carriers, which are possibly trapped at interface
defects resulting in a local electric field.

Figure 1. For exciton (X) and bi-exciton (XX) in a QR (a), optical AB oscillations of X (c, d, e)
and XX (f, g, h) are observed with increasing excitation power, respectively.

ABSTRACT

I will present our recent studies on on-surface chemistry with high-resolution scanning probe
microscopy operating at low temperature under ultra-high vacuum. We synthesized three-
dimensional organometallic compound and graphene nanoribbon by coupling hexabromo
substituted-propellane molecules on Au(111) and Ag(111) [1]. In the structure, the C-Br bonds
distant from the surface remained intact even after the reaction. The radical species were formed
by tip-induced debromination and were also stabilized by either tip-manipulated Br atom or
fullerene molecule. We also demonstrate systematic tip-induced isomerization via embedding a
text of “NIMS” by following binary and ternary ascii cords (Figure 1), in which two chiral
dehydroazulene and diradical units were used [2]. Among the three states, the diradical unit
showed the spin coupling of 90 meV. For heteroatom substitution, we developed an on-surface
reaction, which can synthesize graphene nanoribbon and covalent organic frameworks with
silabenzene units by coupling Si atom and Br-substituted molecule (Figure 2) [3]. The heavier
congeners of cyclic aromatic compounds have been studied as an elusive target product for
organic synthesis due to their high reactivity at ambient temperature and difficult isolation. Thus,
this result shows the advantage of on-surface synthesis.

ABSTRACT

Chirality refers to an object's structural characteristics that set it apart from its mirror image. This
property is not limited to physical entities like crystals and molecules but also extends to
dynamic phenomena such as phonons. Recently, there has been interest in chiral phonons
possessing pseudo-angular momentum (PAM) and angular momentum, as proposed [1] and
observed [2] in studies. However, chiral phonons exhibiting rotational propagation in three-
dimensional materials had not been previously reported. In this work, we utilized circularly
polarized Raman spectroscopy along with first-principles calculations to identify chiral phonons
in chiral crystals (trigonal α-HgS [3] and Te [4]). Our spectroscopic analysis revealed a peak
splitting of the Γ3 modes along the principal axis of α-HgS in the backscatter configuration.
Notably, the observed peak splitting in the anti-Stokes spectrum mirrored that of the Stokes
spectrum (Figure 1). Additionally, we found that the peak splitting corresponds to a reversal of
the PAMs between the incident and scattered circularly polarized light. Through phonon PAM
calculations considering three-fold rotational symmetry, we confirmed the conservation law of
PAM in Raman scattering. This method enabled us to determine the chirality of crystals in a non-
invasive and non-destructive manner.

ABSTRACT

Photoluminescence (PL) blinking is excellent indicative of emission quality of semiconductor

quantum dots (QDs). Characteristic ON/OFF blinking trajectory is originating from neutral
exciton recombination and charged exciton (trion) recombination including a nonradiative Auger
process. We will discuss multiple exciton recombination dynamics of InP QDs in excited-state
by time-resolved PL, emission blinking, lifetime sub-component trajectory analysis. From the
precise analysis of PL intensity-lifetime trajectories, we revealed that ON count occurrence is
typically enhanced as emission quantum yield (QY) increases. The intensity-lifetime correlation
enables the characteristic kinetic rate information taking place inside of single QDs with a
different shell thickness and surface passivation. The observed specific emission blinking is
discussed in terms of quantum confinement and delocalization of charge carrier wavefunctions.
The time- and space-resolved PL images of the single QDs clearly demonstrated the excellent
emission quality over the examined area.

ABSTRACT

This study focuses on enhancing the conductivity of Yttrium iron garnet (YIG) for sensor
applications. To achieve this, divalent ions such as Cu 2+ are introduced into one of YIG's three
sublattices via the sol-gel method. Initial findings reveal that Cu 2+ preferentially occupies the c
sublattice of Y3+ over the other two Fe3+ sublattices. Cu-doped YIG particles exhibit an average
crystal size of a few tens of nanometers as determined by XRD diffractions, but under incubation
conditions of 1000°C for 5 hours, their size can reach several hundred nanometers according to
SEM images. The lattice constant values of these samples show slight variations based on the
Cu2+ content in the c sublattice. Analysis of Raman spectra indicates shifts in bond vibrations
around the wavelength of 338 cm-1 tos longer wavelengths, confirming the presence of Cu 2+ in
the YIG sublattice. Examination of hysteresis loops reveals insignificant changes in magnetic
moment and Curie temperature values with Cu 2+ doping, while I-V characteristic curves
demonstrate a decrease in resistance by up to 6 orders of magnitude compared to pure YIG.

ABSTRACT

The sensitive, repatable, reliable, and selective detection of various hazardous gases at an early
stage has become increasingly important in daily living places as well as modern industrial
factories. The aims of gas sensors include safety both in industry and at home, health care,
defense of terror or chemical warfare, and environment monitoring. Various types of gas sensors
have been developed and employed. Gas sensors can be classified according to mainly materials
used and sensing principles operated. Chemiresesistive type gas sensors have been widely uesed.
They have a simple sensing mechanim in which a change of resistance is measured as exterior
environment is changing; that is, resistance change of the senor materials by adsorption and
desorption of gaseous species. The materials used for such type of gas sensors are usually
semiconducting metal oxides. The merits of chemiresistive-type gas sensors are easy fabrication,
low cost, adaptability to nanostructures, and potential possibility of attaining extremely high
sensing performances. However, to fulfill their practical application, several sensing properties
need to be further improved; higher selectivity to a target gas, more stable sensing signal for a
long time period, humidity resistance, and less temperature dependency, and selective detection,
etc. For the purpose of improving such sensing performances, considerable research and
developments have been made up to the present. In this presentation, the recent advncement and
experimental results on modification of sensor surfaces performed in my research gropu in order
to enhance the sensing performances will be explained and discussed.

ABSTRACT

Surface modified carbon nanotubes (CNTs) by coating noble metallic nanoparticles (Fig. 1) and
a combination of CNTs and tungsten oxide (WO 3) on partterned Pt-electrode substrates (Fig. 2)
were used to produce the resistivity-based ammonia gas sensors at room temperature. It is shown
that these sensors can enhance the sensitivity of NH3 gas compared with pristine CNT sensor.
For the first type, the sensors’ sensitivity depended not only on the thickness of the noble metal
layer but also on the kind of deposited metal. For the latter type, the enhanced sensing properties
are attributed to the formation of heterojunctions between the p-type inversion layers of WO3 and
CNTs.

ABSTRACT

Amorphous oxide semiconductors (AOSs) gain great attention as the next-generation channel
materials for thin-film transistors (TFTs). However, most AOSs have a drawback due to the
formation of oxygen vacancies. To reduce oxygen vacancy, silicon (Si) was introduced as a
dopant into one of the potential AOS, indium oxide semiconductors, because of its high bond
dissociation energy with oxygen. In this study, the effect of oxygen vacancy on the device
performance of solution-processed In-Si-O (ISO) was investigated. A TFT with ISO shows high
mobility and a low on/off current ratio (< 10) due to the relatively high carrier concentration after
vacuum treatment. It suggests the generation of oxygen vacancy even for ISO. By just storing in
the ambient environment, the on/off current ratio was improved up to 10 4 through the oxygen-
vacancy elimination as shown in Figure 1. The time constant of the oxygen-vacancy elimination
in the ambient environment was estimated to be a few days.

ABSTRACT

Spintronics is a field focused on studying both of the charge and spin of electrons, potentially
enabling the development of alternative architectures of computational devices known as beyond
CMOS techniques. Two of the recent proposals for the spin-based architectures will be shown in
this presentation. Firstly, the combination of the spin-orbit coupling and the magnetoelectric
effect in a device can be exploited for an ultra-low energy logic has been assessed by Intel
(MESO logic) [1]. In this regard, the spin Hall effect plays a role of reading information and
cascading circuit elements. The favourable scaling law – a key property for MESO logic – has
been proven with a typical spin-Hall system which can yield huge enhancement of readout signal
[2]. Secondly, skyrmions, the topological-protected magnetic nanobubbles which can be
stabilized at nanoscale and driven by the electrical current are uses for the information carriers.
The skyrmion is required to move controllably in the devices. However, the skyrmions in the
typical ferromagnets move with low speed (around 90-100 m/s) and are deflected by phenomena
such as the skyrmion Hall effect. This issue can be solved by using an antiferromagnet instead of
the ferromagnet. Around 10 times faster speed (compared to those reported in the ferromagnets)
with a straight trajectory can be observed in the synthetic antiferromagnetic devices at room
temperature [3]. Finally, I will discuss about the gap between the concepts to industrial devices
and how to mitigate this gap.

ABSTRACT

Spin-transfer torque (STT) driven magneto-dynamics have been received many attentions due to
its interesting physic as well as possible industrial applications. STT can be utilized for the
manipulation of many different nano-scale spin-dynamics such as magnetic vortices, bubbles,
skyrmions, droplet solitons, and spin-waves. Among these fascinating dynamics, magnetic
droplet solitons are dynamic magnetic structures that can be observed in thin magnetic films
exhibiting perpendicular magnetic anisotropy (PMA), thanks to an attractive interaction between
spin waves [1-3]. Here, many important advances in experiments have been achieved including
the understanding nucleation conditions with currents vs. applied fields [4], obtaining the direct
x-ray images of droplets [5], observing mutual transitions between magnetic bubbles and droplets
[6], achieving magneto-dynamics in spin-torque oscillator with a tilted exchange-spring polarizer
[7], and very recent result, realizing magnetic droplet pairs in both reference and free layers [8].
In this talk, I will provide valuable insights into latest research on magnetic droplet solitons.

ABSTRACT

The properties of materials are strongly influenced by small changes in the arrangement of their
constituent atoms. We are intensively investigating interesting nanophenomena arising from the
control of nano- to atomic-scale structures, such as the arrangement of atoms. Nanostructure
control can be achieved by using ionic nanoarchitectonics to locally and reversibly control ion
transport and electrochemical phenomena that occur at interfaces and surfaces of solids (Figure
1). Such nanostructure control enables the creation of nanoionic devices with electrical, magnetic
and optical functions generated by various nanophenomena. We have already used ionic
nanoarchitectonics to create several nanoionic devices with diverse functions and good
performance. These include atomic switches, decision-making devices, artificial synaptic
devices, solid-state electrical double-layer transistors, on-demand multifunctional devices, and
magnetization and magnetoresistance tuning devices [1,2]. In particular, we believe that this
ionic nanoarchitecture is a promising method for creating artificial intelligence (AI) devices
based on neuromorphic properties, which have recently attracted much attention.

electrochemical phenomena in solids to create nanodevices with a variety of unique functions

ABSTRACT

Scanning Probe Microscopy (SPM) has been a versatile characterization tool for nanoscale
science and technology research. In addition to the atomic-resolution measurement of the heights
of nanoscale features, it can also be used for the investigation of the electrical properties of
nanomaterials and nanodevices. SPM-derived characterization techniques such as electrostatic
force microscopy (EFM), Kelvin probe force microscopy (KPFM), and scanning gate
microscopy (SGM), which are all based on an atomic force microscope (AFM) have been used
for the study of the local electrical properties. In this presentation, a few examples of SPM-based
local electrical measurements applied to the study of electrical and optoelectrical properties of
two-dimensional (2D) nanomaterials such as graphene and transition metal dichalcogenide
(TMDC) and nanodevices based on nanomaterials will be presented. The evolution of the surface
potential in monolayer MoS2 flakes under light illumination is investigated with KPFM. The
spatial distribution of surface potential changes is related to the generation, diffusion, and
recombination of photo-excited carriers in MoS2 flakes. (Fig. 1) Field effect transistor devices
based on graphene and TMDC are investigated with SGM, where the tip is used as a local gate
electrode. The local gate response of the devices shows inhomogeneities in the band structure of
these nanomaterials.

ABSTRACT

When a positron, an antiparticle of electron, meets an electron, the so-called electron-positron

annihilation will occur. This annihilation generates two gamma rays of 511 keV in opposite
directions, which can be detected by some detectors. The positron annihilation spectroscopy
(PAS) is a none-destructive technique that operates based on the annihilation of positrons with
electrons in the material. PAS is known as a powerful method to investigate the defective
structure (monovacancies, vacancy clusters, nanopores, mesopores, voids, etc) in nanomaterials.
In particular, since PAS uses a low-energy positron beam emitted from a radioisotope source, it
allows to avoid the thermalization of investigated materials as well as the modification of
materials structure. PAS has been setup and operated at Center for Nuclear Technologies,
Vietnam Atomic Energy Institute since 2005. This spectroscopy has been effectively used to
investigate the defect structure in various nanomaterials, such as ZSM-5 zeolite (for treatment of
radioactive waste and catalytic cracking), chitosan loaded MnO 2 (for Pb(II) adsorption), Mn 4+-
doped K2SiF6 nanophosphors (for micro white light-emitting diodes), orthorhombic hydrated
sodium molybdate (for Li-ion storage in Li-ion battery), Co-doped MoS (for catalytic hydrogen
production), hexagonal annular-NiO nanoarchitecture (for H2S gas sensors), etc. This talk will
present a brief overview of PAS and its applications to some selected nanomaterials in Vietnam.

ABSTRACT

Magnetic interactions and magnetoresistance (MR) are analyzed in [Co/Pd]/X/[Co/Pd]

multilayers (MLs) with different spacer-layer materials X (Pd, Cu, IrMn) between two
[Co0.5 nm/Pd1.0 nm] n ferromagnetic (FM) layers with strong perpendicular magnetic anisotropy. In
contrast to the increased resistance due to the giant MR (GMR) effect observed in the MLs with a
Pd (or Cu) non-magnetic spacer (Fig. 1a), in the MLs with an IrMn antiferromagnetic (AFM)
spacer, the local resistance minima correspond to an antiparallel alignment of the magnetization
of the FM layers (Fig. 1b). Despite the similarity of the magnetization curves (Fig. 1), different
types of interlayer exchange coupling (IEC) between the FM layers are revealed for these MLs.
A slight FM-IEC is characteristic of the MLs with X = Pd8 nm, while AFM-IEC is detected in the
MLs with X = IrMn6 nm. It is noteworthy that the latter is asymmetric, i.e. increases significantly
upon magnetization reversal tos the unidirectional axis of the bottom FM layer coupled with the
AFM layer. Different types of magnetic interactions that contribute to the total magnetic energy
of these MLs generate different types of magnetic domains within them (Kerr contrast images in
Fig. 1). Small bubble-like domains are formed in the [Co/Pd]/IrMn/[Co/Pd] MLs (Fig. 1b) that
can be useful for designing new types of magnetic memory and spintronic devices.

ABSTRACT

Two-dimensional (2D) van der Waals (vdW) materials have garnered significant interest in the
scientific community due to their unique physical properties as well as numerous potential
practical applications. These materials possess intriguing magnetic properties that can be finely
tuned and manipulated by external factors like chemical doping, magnetic field, electric field,
strain, and pressure. This sensitivity to external perturbations makes them ideal platforms for
fundamental research on magnetism and spin-related phenomena. Among 2D vdW materials,
MPX3 (M – transition metal, X – chalcogenides such as Se or S) compounds are of particular
interest due to recently discovered intriguing magnetic phenomena, such as pressure-induced
emergent magnetic phases in FePS3/Se3 or the observation of new incommensurate
antiferromagnetic order and spin liquid state in CrFePSe 3 system. This report aims to provide an
overview of the structural and magnetic properties as well as the microscopic mechanisms of the
magnetic phenomena occurring in the MPX3 system.

ABSTRACT

A single-sample concept combinatorial method, called “micro-combinatory” has been developed

and applied for the high-throughput and complex characterization of structure and materials
properties of multicomponent thin films over the entire composition range. This work describes
the micro-combinatorial technique (Fig.1) and presents recent results achieved in the micro-
combinatorial characterization of different binary and ternary films produced by DC and RF
sputtering. In addition to the 3 mm diameter grid used for TEM microstructural analysis, by
scaling up the sample size to 10x 25 mm 2, this novel approach has allowed for a comprehensive
study of the properties of the materials as a function of their composition, via transmission
electron microscopy (TEM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Rutherford backscattering
spectrometry (RBS), X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD), atomic force microscopy (AFM),
spectroscopic ellipsometry, and nanoindentation studies. Using the micro-combinatorial
technique, multicomponent layers can be studied in greater detail and efficiency than before,
which is beneficial for both research and practical applications. Beyond new scientific advances,
the potential for innovation with respect to this new high-throughput concept is explored,
including the creation of two- and three-component thin film databases, e.g. phase maps.

ABSTRACT

Pure and doped cupric oxide (CuO) based thin films are extensively researched for abundant
applications in electrical and optical semiconductor devices due to its narrow band gap. CuO thin
films enable to design as a hole-transport visible-light absorber layer in solar cells. Recently, we
have defined the absorption figure of merit (a-FOM) to evaluate the quality of the conductive
absorption films [1]. In order to enhance the a-FOM, we attempted to add Ni into the CuO-based
thin film with doping from 0 to 4 wt% concentration, via a solution processing [2, 3]. We found
that the film with 4 wt% Ni doping showed a maximal value of a-FOM as high as 30.88 Ω-1cm-1,
corresponding to a square resistance of 2.07 MΩ/sq and an absorption length of 63.8 nm.
Considering a simulation and experiment correlation, we found that using B3LYP, PBE0, HSE06
hybrid functionals, or GGA-PBE-US Cu16O16 and antiferromagnetic, we obtained Eg = 2.578
eV, Eg = 3.406 eV, Eg = 2.602 eV, Eg = 0.490 eV, respectively, which well agreed with the
experimental values. Interestingly, we demonstrated that the thin-film transistor (TFT) exhibited
a p-channel operation, with an on/off current ratio of approximately 10 2-103, as shown in Figure
1 [4]. In addition, for the very first time, we demonstrated a simple solar cell with ZnO:Al/CuO
junction structure, under all solution processes [5]. The detailed achievements will be presented
and discussed in the workshop.

ABSTRACT

The marketability of gas sensor systems is surging, fueled by growing needs in industries like
environmental monitoring, industrial safety, and healthcare. Semiconductor gas sensors,
especially those based on metal oxide semiconductors, are valued for their sensitivity and cost-
effectiveness. These sensors function on the principle that the resistance of the semiconductor
material varies in the presence of target gases, facilitating the measurement of gas concentrations.
However, a major challenge faced by these sensors is baseline dispersion, which is the variability
or drift in the sensor’s baseline signal over time caused by changes in ambient conditions, aging
of the sensor, or exposure to interfering gases. This variability complicates the accurate and
reliable extraction of signals, potentially masking the presence of target gases or resulting in false
readings. Addressing this issue, the integration of Readout Integrated Circuits (ROIC) emerges as
a pivotal strategy. ROICs, crucial components within gas sensor systems, are engineered to
dynamically adjust and compensate for baseline dispersion in real-time. By incorporating
advanced correction techniques and algorithms directly into the ROIC, it is possible to enhance
the sensor's accuracy and reliability substantially. This approach not only streamlines the
calibration process but also reduces the need for extensive post-processing. Therefore, focusing
on the development of ROICs presents a more efficient and effective method to overcome the
inherent physical limitations of semiconductor gas sensors, thereby ensuring more precise gas
measurements.

ABSTRACT

Heterostructures stand for the artificial structures composed of two or more different solid-state
materials. When the dimensionality of materials scales down to nanoscale, the interfaces
associated with constitute materials play the dominant role on their materials chemistry, materials
physics and even being decisive for the correlated device performances. In this presentation, the
applications of UV photodetectors, photovoltaic cells, photo-involved memory/transistors
employed with silicon (Si) based heterostructures will be delivered via light-driven route, aiming
to the integrated system in a single Si chip with the merited large functionalities and low power
consumption. The present heterostructure design, along with the mechanism validation was
anticipated to be potential for unlocking the advanced development of self-powered, readable and
functional devices with desired properties on Si with seamless integration.

ABSTRACT

Silsesquioxanes are obtained from organotrialkoxysilane precursors (Eq.1) which, on one side,
when appropriately hydrolysed, lead to well-defined molecular structures such as silsesquioxane
cages also known as POlySilSesquioxanes (POSS). According to the type of precursor and to the
reaction conditions, several cage compounds can be formed [1]. These can be postsilylated and
hydrolysed leading to POSS units covalently bonded and evenly distributed in a silsesquioxane
hybrid network [2,3].

On the other side, organo-bridged silane precursors lead to another family of hybrid silica called
bridged silsesquioxanes (Eq. 2). The properties of the resulting hybrid materials can be tuned
following the main organic structure (nanostructuring, molecular imprinting/molecular
recognition, catalysis, optics, nanomedical applications) [4-8] and also by the silsesquioxane
matrix (periodic and uniform porosity, high surface area, size and shape-controlled nano-objects)
[9,10]. This presentation will be focused on these two types of hybrid silicas featuring the
synthesis of specific molecular cages as well as porous bridged silsesquioxanes with distinct
shapes.

ABSTRACT

Metal Oxide Semiconducors (MOSs) are considered a promising resistive-type gas sensing
material because of their high sensitivity, fast gas-response and recovery times. However, the
MOS-based sensors normally require high operating temperature, resulting in a high power
consumption. Thus, it could limit the practical application of the gas sensors in Internet of Things
based mobile devices. To address the issue, lots of effort dedicated to develop advanced
materials, which could have sensing responses at a low temperature or room temperature. This
talk focuses on controlled synthesis of transition/noble metal dichalcogenides (TMDs)
nanostructures such as MoS2, WS2, PtSe2 and composite of TMDs/MOSs using different methods
for low temperature and room temperature gas sensor application. MoS 2, WS2, PtSe2
nanostructures such as few-layered nanosheets, nanoflakes, nanoflowers were synthesized by a
liquid phase exfoliation, chemical vapor deposition, and hydrothermal methods followed by a
facile drop-casting technique for fabricating sensor devices with the enhanced NO 2 sensing
performance at room temperature. For example, the highest gas response of the sensors based on
the WS2 nanosheets was about 10 times to 5 ppm NO2 at room temperature. While the gas
sensitivity of the sensors based on the composite of WS2 and ZnO nanostructures was as high as
of 800 times to 2 ppm NO2 at a low temperature of 150 °C. The fabricated sensors indicate low
detection limit, good selectivity to interfering gases, humidity-independent sensing
characteristics at room and low temperature, and good short- and -long term stability which open
up the future application of the IoT-based devices.

MATERIAL SCIENCE FOR DEVELOPING EMERGENT

NON-VOLATILE MEMORIES

ABSTRACT

For decades, digital computing systems are based on the von Neumann architecture where data
must be moved from volatile cache memories Static random-access memory (SRAM) and the
main volatile memory Dynamic random-access memory (DRAM) to a processing element. The
latency and the energy consumption associated with moving data back and forth between the
main memory and processing units are key performance bottlenecks for a wide range of
applications, known as the Memory Wall. In particular, the current exponential development of
AI requires high computational demands and gives rise to significant concerns about its energy
consumption. For example, AI technologies currently consume approximately 7% of the world’s
electricity—equivalent to India’s annual electricity usage [1]. As AI continues to expand,
exploring more energy-efficient approaches to AI hardware becomes imperative. Recently, in-
memory (IMC) and neuromorphic computing concepts have been deeply investigated as
promising methods to break the memory bottleneck existing in the traditional computing
configuration, especially for AI applications. In those new approaches, the computing logics is
integrated into the memory array and enables in situ data processing without extra data
movements. Such computational architectures have demonstrated great advantages in improving
energy efficiency, reducing latency, and boosting parallelism. Volatile SRAM is one of the most
interesting candidates for IMC, since they can achieve superior speed and flexibility owing to its
mature fabrication techniques with advanced CMOS technology. However, a volatile SRAM bit
cell, which contains at least six transistors, suffers from unavoidable static power dissipation. In
contrast, non-volatile memories (NVM) like resistive random access memory (ReRAM), phase-
change memory (PCM), ferroelectric random access memory (FeRAM), magnetoresistive
random access memory (MRAM), and Electro-Chemical Random-Access Memory (ECRAM)
allow the memory arrays to preserve data without static power dissipation. Such NVMs are
generally integrated above the CMOS transistors in memory arrays consisting of many
perpendicular word-lines and bit-lines. Such memory arrays require a selector for each memory
cell, which prohibit sneak current on the unselected memory cells. Threshold switching devices
are promising candidates for those selectors. This paper highlights the utmost importance of
material science and engineering for developing these non-volatile memories, and the threshold
switching devices, as well as their mandatory integration in an advanced CMOS process flow.

ABSTRACT

Investigations on the sensitive detection of hazardous NO 2 gas at room temperature are highly
demanded; however, the current semiconductor-based gas sensors essentially require high-
temperature operation over 1000C for activating the NO2 capture and variation of electric
characteristics, and the lack of humidity-independent sensing features restricts their practical
employment. In this research, the adsorption behavior of WO x/Si heterostructures to the NO2
target is unveiled by using density functional theory (DFT) and experimental investigations. Our
DFT results reveal that NO2 adsorption features more negative adsorption energy on exposed Si
surfaces, with a greater charge transfer magnitude than WO x surfaces and WOx/Si interfaces. In
addition, the band gap energy of WOx and Si are ~2.2 eV and ~1.2 eV, respectively. The discrete
perturbation of electronic states appears within gap regions arising from the surface states while
the WOx: Si heterostructures are considered. Besides, these coupled heterostructures with
distributed WOx nanoparticles exhibit stable gas-sensing characteristics, showing minimal
degradation of sensing response (8.4%) under high humidity (83%) compared to the average
response within 24.5–55.2% humidity. This level of detection robustness surpasses that of other
oxide-based NO2 gas sensors in existing literature. Band structure examinations indicate that the
presence of Si in these NO2 sensors acts as a bridge, efficiently rectifying hole flows and
synergistically improving room-temperature detection.

ABSTRACT

Nanoimprint Lithography (NIL) is an emerging nanofabrication technique that has the potential
to revolutionize the field of optics. By using NIL, it is possible to fabricate complex structures on
a nanometer scale, such as metalenses and waveguide gratings for augmented reality (AR). One
of the main advantages of this replication-based technology is its ability to transfer complex
micro- and nanostructures to high volume manufacturing with high fidelity and over a large area
in a single step. For many devices, especially for optical applications, the replicated layer can
serve as the functional layer in the product without significant restrictions on device dimensions
and shapes. Recently, NIL has evolved from a technology primarily used in research and niche
markets to a game changer for emerging industry trends. In particular, the manufacturing of
complex structures using NIL has enabled the production of AR waveguides as well as
sophisticated metalenses at a competitive cost (Fig. 1). These nanostructures rely on high-
resolution and advanced patterning requirements, making NIL a decisive technology for their
manufacturing.

The economic implementation of Nanoimprint Lithography (NIL) at scale is crucial to meet the
increasing demand for novel devices in the photonic industry. For cost-effective scaling to
production lines using 200mm or 300mm wafer sizes, the entire process chain must be
established. To achieve efficient scaling of these precise structures, it is necessary to match
mastering techniques, proven replication processes, and dedicated optical materials. Typically,
full area masters are used for the NIL process. However, the cost of sequential processes for
fabricating masters scales with the pattern area. For 200mm and 300mm wafer sizes, it has been
demonstrated that starting with single high-quality dies and scaling them through step and repeat
(S&R) NIL to fully populated wafer-scale masters is a flexible and economically attractive
approach. This approach simplifies and accelerates the transfer of the metalens or waveguide
designs from prototyping to mass production (Fig. 2). The wafer-level production itself requires

reliable replication of working stamps and nanoimprinting of multiple devices on a single wafer.
Additionally, dedicated optical materials, such as high refractive index resins, must provide
proper filling, high uniformity, clarity, and reliability. Overall, a thorough understanding of all
process steps is essential for high-volume manufacturing to enable efficient, repeatable, and
reliable scaling. This talk presents an overview of the versatility and recent achievements of NIL,
with a focus on metalenses and AR waveguide manufacturing, and how the capabilities of this
technology are rapidly emerging.

ABSTRACT

Two-dimensional (2D) layered materials, such as graphene and transition metal dichalcogenides,
have been extensively studied beyond their applications of bulk Si and compound semiconductor
technologies as potential semiconductor platforms. However, their excellent electrical
performance, including the carrier mobility, contact resistance, and long-term stability has been
limited due to environmentally induced disturbances to the electrical structure. Therefore,
developing effective surface passivation methods for semiconductor devices is crucial to
counteract the deterioration of their properties due to scattering or trapping of carriers in channels
caused by molecular adsorption from the surrounding environment. The conventional oxide
dielectric capping layers, such as Al2O3 and HfO2, have been applied to suppress Coulomb
scattering by shielding the surface from surrounding molecules and phonon dispersion, thereby,
significantly enhances the mobility of 2D field-effect transistors (FETs). However, oxide film
deposition involves the formation of additional interface trap defect at 2D/dielectric, leading to
accidental electrostatic doping or enhanced hysteretic behavior. In this presentation, we report a
novel passivation approach for 2D FETs by using van der Waals (vdW) fluorocarbon (FC)
layers. VdW FC layers were synthesized on metal-catalyzed Si/SiO2 substrates using inductively
coupled plasma chemical vapor deposition and then transferred onto 2D FETs. 2D graphene and
WSe2 FETs passivated by vdW FC layers showed significantly enhanced electrical properties
and long-term stability.

ABSTRACT

This study focuses on the synthesis and microwave absorption characteristics of carbon materials
obtained from D-Glucose, which have been modified by CuFe2O4 nanoparticles. Additionally,
we analyse the impact of the amount of carbon materials added. The material was synthesised
using a straightfor hydrothermal technique, and many approaches were employed to analyse its
microscopic morphology, structure, and microwave absorption characteristics. The results
indicate that the alteration of copper ferrite nanoparticles is successful in reducing polarisation
and magnetic losses, hence improving the microwave absorption characteristics of the samples.
After comparing all the samples, it can be inferred that the CuFe 2O4/C 1:3 composite materials
had an effective absorption bandwidth of 9.24 GHz. The RL at 9.76 GHz is -55.4 dB, which is
the minimal value. The thickness of the object mentioned above measures 3.0 mm. This study
not only offers a standardised procedure for creating microwave absorbent materials but also
enhances our comprehension of the mechanics involved in absorption.

ABSTRACT

Supercapacitors are potential energy storage devices for mobile electronics, electric vehicles, and
renewable energy storage systems due to their fast charging and discharging energy, very long
life, safe operation, and environmentally friendly [1]. However, the weakness of current
supercapacitors is that the energy density is still relatively low compared to batteries [2]. There
are two main ways to solve this problem: (i) increase the capacitance thanks to the electrode
materials; (ii) increase the potential window by using proper electrolytes [3]. To date, many
materials have been fabricated and tested as electrode materials and electrolytes for
supercapacitors. However, the challenge remains to create materials with superior
electrochemical properties at a low cost via a facile fabrication process. In Vietnam, research on
supercapacitors has been interesting in recent years, but there has been no research on using
materials from domestic waste as the primary raw materials for making supercapacitors.
Meanwhile, chitosan is a biodegradable polymer obtained from shrimp shells available in
Vietnam. In this project, we have developed various supercapacitors using nitrogen-doped porous
carbon nanomaterials derived from chitosan. Practically, chitosan could display two functions: (i)
converted into N-doped porous carbon or composition of N-doped porous carbon and metal
oxides/hydroxides/sulfides with a large capacitance as electrode materials for supercapacitors,
and (ii) as a gel electrolyte component for supercapacitors.

ABSTRACT

This research explores three branches of nonlinear phenomena using distinct approaches [1-5].
The first branch employs the statistical momentum method for nonlinear mechanics, calculating
elastic deformation properties of Fe and its alloys (FeSi, FeC, FeH), highlighting temperature and
pressure dependencies. The second branch investigates nonlinear photonics through a hybrid
variational method applied to the nonlinear Schrödinger equation, analyzing beam propagation
and soliton interactions in graded-index optical waveguides, and validating these findings with
simulations. The third branch studies superconducting materials using the time-dependent
Ginzburg-Landau equation with thermal noise, modeling transport properties near the critical
temperature, and demonstrating that high electric fields suppress fluctuations and maintain
residual superconductivity above Tc, consistent with Sn nanowire experiments.

Keywords: Alloy properties, nonlinear optics, optical beam propagation, superconductivity,

ABSTRACT

Yttrium iron garnet (YIG) thin film as an excellent insulator for metal insulator semiconductor
(MIS) devices was deposited on Si (100) substrate by using metal organic decomposition (MOD)
method. The growth temperature is introduced as a main key to obtaining high-k dielectric
properties of the YIG thin film. By using the optimized condition, we have gained a YIG thin
film that showed smooth surface and high uniformity. In addition, the MIS device exhibits great
gate-insulating properties, including almost no hysteresis in the capacitance-voltage curve, low
leakage current, and high dielectric strength. This study shows that high quality YIG thin film on
Si substrate via MOD method is a potential candidate for next-generation MIS device.

Keywords: Yttrium iron garnet, dielectric constant, gate dielectrics, metal oxide semiconductors,

ABSTRACT

High-k dielectrics are one of the exceedingly vital parts of the current generation and potential
electronic circuits. In complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor structures, particularly, they
have been widely studied for state-of-the-art memory devices and microelectronic devices. To
adapt with integrated circuit’s transistors nowadays, the gate dielectric thickness must be
diminished to less than the oxide equivalent thickness of a deca-nm or even sub-10 nm thickness
of about 1-2 nm that goes beyond their fundamental material limits leading to electron tunneling
effect. Most of studies on high-k dielectric materials have been established on inorganic film
such as metal oxides (HfO2, ZrO2 and so forth), nitrides (Si3N4, AlN), perovskites as well.
Fascinatingly, emerging class of nominees are organic such as fluorocarbon, hydrocarbon or the
most recent hydrofluorocarbon have been paid attention, irrespective of their practical low-k. In
this presentation, we report the high-k properties and metal-insulator-semiconductor (MIS)
device applications of organic hydrofluorocarbon films (HFCs). Ultrathin high-k HFC films were
synthesized on metal-catalytic Si/SiO2 or catalytic-free Si substrates by using inductively-
coupled plasma chemical vapor deposition with CH4 and CF4 gases as precursors. The dielectric
properties of HFC films were successfully manipulated by the gas ratio of CH 4/CF4 and synthesis
temperature. We will further discuss the performance of MIS devices with high-k HFC films as
gate dielectrics.

ABSTRACT

Thin film transistors (TFTs) have become essential components in various electronic and
optoelectronic display devices, including liquid crystal displays, digital cameras, mobile phones,
tablets, etc. Recently, there has been a considerable focus on n-channel oxide TFTs due to their
high field-effect mobility and capability of using low temperature processing. However, the
development of p-channel oxide TFTs remains a crucial challenge for realizing complementary
metal oxide semiconductor technology based on oxide semiconductors. P-type oxide
semiconductors such as ZnO, Cu-based oxides, NiO and SnO have been studied for their
potential application as active layers in the p-channel TFTs. Among them, p-type semiconductor
copper oxide CuxO-based thin film transistors are garnering significant attention due to their high
absorption coefficient, non-toxic nature, abundant availability, good transport properties and low-
cost production. In this report, we demonstrate the fabrication of p-channel TFTs using copper
oxide (CuxO) as an active layer. CuxO films were deposited at room temperature from a metallic
copper (Cu) target using reactive magnetron sputtering with varying oxygen partial pressures.
Top-gate structured TFTs were also deposited and patterned by using photolithography
techniques. The structural and optical characteristics of the p-type CuxO TFTs were investigated,
and their electrical characteristics were evaluated through I-V measurements to assess device
performance.

ABSTRACT

Spin Hall effect (SHE) is the conversion of charge current to spin current. Non-magnetic heavy
transition metals (TMs) are expected to have large spin Hall conductivity (SHC) thanks to their
large spin-orbit coupling (SOC). Among transition metals, β-W with A15 structure, has been
reported to be among the materials that have large SHC [1-3], and SHCs of its alloys are even
much improved [2]. In this work, SHCs of β-W and its alloys with V and Ta have been
theoretically studied by the combination of the first principles calculation with the tight binding
method. Several compositions of Ta-W and V-W alloys are investigated. And for each
composition, we consider all possible configurations, from that the relative energetics between
the configurations are calculated to estimate the thermodynamic average of SHCs. Due to the
same valence electrons of Ta and V, the band structures of Ta-W and V-W in the same
configuration are quite similar resulting in a similar trend of SHCs. However, different energetics
may result in the difference in the thermodynamic average of SHCs. We find that V is more
favorable than Ta to alloy with β-W. The thermodynamic average of SHCs of W-V alloy
enhances up to -1208 ℏ/𝑒 S/cm, about 48% larger than -817 ℏ/𝑒 S/cm of β-W at concentration
of V is 25%, while that of Ta-W alloy decreases with Ta concentration.

ABSTRACT

Researchers strive to replicate the brain’s efficient parallel data processing by developing
neuromorphic devices [1]. These devices, including memristors and synaptic transistors, aim to
overcome traditional von Neumann architecture limitations. While memristors face challenges in
signal transmission and learning, synaptic transistors offer adjustable weight and improved non-
volatile synaptic functionality. Notably, synaptic transistors with electrolyte insulating layers
form high-capacitance electric double layers (EDLs) due to mobile ions and dipoles. Amorphous
oxynitride semiconductors, like zinc oxynitride (ZnON), exhibit superior mobility. Our study
employed cross-linked poly-4-vinyl phenol (PVP) gate insulators to enhance synaptic properties
in ZnON thin film transistors. Precise control of solution composition and curing optimized EDL
formation. Notably, the 10:1 PVP:PMF weight ratio demonstrated effective excitatory
postsynaptic current (EPSC) responses. These findings highlight the potential of PVP/ZnON-
based transistors in artificial intelligence technology.

ABSTRACT

A memristor, a two-terminal device that mimics synaptic activity in biological systems, is

expected to play a critical role in the advancement of neuromorphic computing. However,
traditional memristors, which typically use digital resistive switching, frequently struggle with
long-term stability and scalability. In response to these issues, we developed a new type of
analog memristor using ZnO nanoparticles synthesized through a green approach. The
Ag/ZnO/FTO memristors fabricated from various synthesized ZnO nanoparticles have exhibited
the stable analog resistive switching over 100 operating cycles. Another salient property is the
generating of Schottky diode inside this memristor structure, providing the self-rectifying
behavior and eliminating the sneak current in reverse bias. Photoluminescence and XPS analysis
confirmed the present of oxygen interstitial defects caused by organic residues. Furthermore, the
concentration of oxygen vacancies originated from organic residuals has been found to
significantly decrease with increased thermal calcination. These changes clearly demonstrate a
reduction in the electron-accepting ability of green-synthesized ZnO films and directly reduce the
porous Schottky junction at the Ag/ZnO interface. This study has revealed a novel conduction
mechanism that is enhanced by oxygen vacancies associated with these residues, suggesting a
promising strategy for improving the performance and functionality of memristors in
neuromorphic computing systems.

ABSTRACT

BiFeO3 (BFO) is a notable multiferroic material due to its high ferroelectric and
antiferromagnetic ordering temperatures. Previous research has shown that reducing the
dimensionality can suppress spiral magnetic ordering, thus altering the magnetic properties. In
BFO compounds, partial substitution of Bi with a small amount of trivalent metal ions or
substitution of Fe with transition metal ions can significantly enhance magnetization. In this
study, thin films of Rare Earth (RE)-doped Bi1-xPrxFeO3 (x = 0; 0.1; 0.2) were grown on LAO
substrates using the pulsed laser deposition technique. The crystal structure changes very much
when increasing concentration of Pr3+. For undoped thin film, structure is Orthorhombic. When x
= 0.1 doped, is becomes Rhombohedral. The concentration x increases up to 0.2, is mixed two
phases Orthorhombic and Tetragonal. The magnetic property was investigated. All the samples
are ferromagnetic with high magnetization. For sample doped 10% Pr, magnetization is very low
about 7 emu/cm3 but it increases 5 time to 35 emu/cm3 at magnetic filed H = 2 Tesla. The XPS
measurement show the ratio Fe2+ /Fe3+ is changed from 40/60 (for sample x = 0.1) to 51.8/48.2
(for x = 0.1). This result can be explained why the magnetization of sample x = 0.2 very high.
Our results may help to find an appropriate dopant concentration for different purposes of
applications such as in color absorption in industry.

states can be explained by the double exchange (DE) mechanism proposed by Zener. The
occurrence of DE is often accompanied by Jahn–Teller (JT) distortion, a phenomenon that arises
between manganite ions in different oxidation states (Mn 3+ and Mn4+). The mixed valence of
Mn3+/Mn4+ makes the transition characteristics strongly dependent on the chemical composition.
Additionally, Chu et al. reported that adding Ag to La0.67Sr0.33MnO3 improves electrical
conductivity and enhances the temperature coefficient of resistivity (TCR) at room temperature
[1]. In a recent study, we demonstrated that Pr 0.5La0.2Sr0.3MnO3 exhibits a large magnetocaloric
effect at room temperature [2], indicating its potential application in magnetic refrigeration
techniques. In this study, the effect of Ag doping on the crystal structure and electrical properties
of Pr0.5La0.2Sr0.3-xAgxMnO3 manganites was systematically investigated. The results indicate that
adding silver in stoichiometric ratios can control the metal-insulator transition temperature (TMI),
electrical conductivity, magnetoresistance (MR), and TCR. The temperature and applied
magnetic field dependences of the electrical conductivity were analyzed using various models in
the temperature ranges below and above TMI. The analyses suggest that grain boundaries, as well
as electron-electron and electron-magnon scatterings, contribute to resistivity in the FMM region.
Meanwhile, thermally activated hopping of small polarons dominates conductivity in the PMI
region. Under different external magnetic fields, the MR peak is located at the metal-insulator
transition and the ferromagnetic-paramagnetic transition, which is characteristic of intrinsic
magnetoresistance. Overall, the large TCR and MR values suggest that Pr 0.5La0.2Sr0.3-xAgxMnO3
compounds have promising applications in uncooled infrared bolometers and magnetic sensors.

ABSTRACT

Recently, magnetic thin films deposited on flexible substrates under applying strain/stress have
been extensively studied due to their potential for tuning magnetic properties. In this work, we
report our experimental investigation on CoFeB/Pd multilayer film with different thicknesses of
0.4 nm and 1.3 nm. The bending strain was generated by curved molds, simultaneously
combined with the magneto-optical Kerr effect (MOKE) microscopy to observe the induced
magnetic properties. The normalized remanent magnetization (Mr/Ms) and coercivity for
CoFeB/Pd multilayer film with under strains were analyzed. Furthermore, temperature-dependent
scaling behavior under strains were also considered.

ABSTRACT

We fabricated Ni45Co5Mn32Al18 alloy ribbon by using melt-spinning method with tangential

velocity of copper wheel of 40 m.s-1. Crystalline-structural analyses revealed the coexistence of
austenitic and martensitic phases in the sample. The ribbon has a soft magnetic feature with low
coercivity. This alloy undergoes first-order martensitic-austenitic (M-A) phase transition and
second-order ferromagnetic-paramagnetic (FM-PM) phase transition around room temperature.
Using the modified Arrott plots, we determined the values of the critical exponents β = 0.512 ±
0.009, γ = 1.045 ± 0.006. These values are very close to those expected for the mean-field theory
with β = 0.5 and γ = 1, proving the existence of long-range ferromagnetic order in the sample.
Particularly, around room temperature, the magnetic entropy change reaches the maximum value
(|Sm|max). With magnetic field change of 12 kOe, |Sm|max of the alloy is larger than 1 J.kg -1K-1,
showing high possibility of the alloy for practical application in magnetic refrigerators.

ABSTRACT

Recently, multiferroic materials have been widely applied in smart electronic materials.
However, multiferroic materials rarely exist because the ferromagnetic and ferroelectric
orderings are often excluded in nature. Therefore, one encountered many difficulties in
fabricating multiferroic materials that exhibit ferroelectric and ferroelectric properties in one
phase. In this work, new binary BaTiO3-Co1.5Fe1.5O4 materials were fabricated by a simple
chemical method. The X-ray diffraction Raman scattering measurement revealed that single-
phase BaTiO3-Co1.5Fe1.5O4 was well fabricated. The crystal structure followed the symmetry of
spinel Co1.5Fe1.5O4 structure, suggesting that BaTiO3 were solute into host Co1.5Fe1.5O4 crystals.
The random distribution of Ba and Ti cations into host Co 1.5Fe1.5O4 crystals resulted in
ferroelectric while the ferromagnetism of studied samples remained at room temperature. The
optical band gap energy of Co1.5Fe1.5O4 materials was reduced as a function of level BaTiO3
dopants. The impedance spectroscopy of Co 1.5Fe1.5O4 and BaTiO3-modified Co1.5Fe1.5O4
materials suggested that the conducting mechanism of our studied samples was most related to
inner grains rather than the contribution of grain-grain boundary. The dielectric constant of
Co1.5Fe1.5O4 materials increased, and the dielectric loss decreased after the introduction of
BaTiO3 as a solid solution. Our observation of both ferroelectric and ferroelectric properties at
room temperature in Co1.5Fe1.5O4 materials via random distribution of Ba and Ti cations into host
crystals was expected to extend the function materials for smart electronic materials belong the
ferromagnetic of host materials. We expected that our work would provide a new method to
integrate the ferroelectric in ferromagnetic materials for next-generation electronic materials
applications.

ABSTRACT

In situ g-C3N4/h-WO3 nanocomposites with different g-C3N4 contents (in the range of 0.0÷1.0
wt.%) were synthesized via a one-step hydrothermal process using g-C3N4 and Na2WO4·2H2O as
precursors, in which g-C3N4 was first prepared from urea using a calcination process at 530℃ for
2h in ambient air. In this work, the electrochromic and electrochemical properties of g-C3N4/h-
WO3 nanocomposites were examined to evaluate the applicability of g-C3N4/h-WO3
nanocomposites in bifunctional smart windows which having both the electrochromic and ion
storage functions. The results show that compositing with g-C3N4 helps improve both the
electrochromic and electrochemical properties of the h-WO3 platform. Nanocomposite samples
show higher transmittance modulation and higher Li-ion diffusion coefficients than the ones of
the pristine sample. The sample having 0.5 wt.% of g-C3N4 shows the highest transmittance
modulation of 65.9, 62.6, and 50.1% at 900, 633, and 550 nm, respectively, which is stable even
after 50 cycles of colored/bleached modulation. Sample 0.5-wt.% g-C3N4/h-WO3 also exhibits
the highest current in the cyclic voltammetry measurement which implied the highest Li-ion
diffusion coefficient of 1.41×10-10 cm2/C (almost two times higher than the pristine sample’s
one). These results imply that g-C3N4/h-WO3 nanocomposites are promising candidates for bi-
functional devices.

ABSTRACT

Recently, there have been many investigations on micro-suspension systems moving along the z
direction. The symmetrical four-serpentine springs micro-suspension system shows more
advantages in terms of anti-overturning ability and low neighboring mode interference. In this
article, we study and simulate two micro-suspension structures using four serpentine springs
arranged symmetrically, with a square plate in the middle. Investigate the stability of the micro-
suspension system, depending on the total length of the four serpentine springs. We compare two
structures with the same size parameters to evaluate the qualities of each structure for
application. The suspending system has a low operating frequency 93.2 kHz and with a wide
control frequency range spanning from 93.2 kHz to 329.2 kHz. It facilitates simple and adaptable
control, while still ensuring strong immunity to adjacent modes (∆>34.5%) and ensuring edge
ratio in fabrication. The length of the beam can be adjusted arbitrarily to achieve the desired
frequency as well as large displacement distance.

ABSTRACT

The electrochemical performance of chitosan-derived carbon material in various aqueous

electrolytes including 1M H2SO4, 1M Na2SO4 and 6M KOH was explored. This electrode
material exhibits different capacitance characteristics in different aqueous electrolytes, the
highest specific capacitance in 1M H2SO4 electrolyte (272 F g-1 at 0.5 A g−1), the lowest specific
capacitance in 6M KOH electrolyte (232 F g -1 at 0.5 A g−1). The Nyquist plots demonstrate that
the chitosan-derived carbon electrode materials in the 6M KOH electrolyte has higher
electrochemical impedance and lower capacitive characteristics than that in the 1M H 2SO4, 1M
Na2SO4 electrolyte. The chitosan-derived carbon electrode materials in 1M Na2SO4 electrolyte
has the best capacity to maintain capacitance after 5000 cycles (97%). Therefore, the choice of
electrolyte is an important factor for supercapacitor applications.

ABSTRACT

Two-dimensional transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) alloys have been of interest in

materials science and device applications owing to their tunable chemical and physical
properties. Exploring the potential of these 2D semiconductors requires control of their band gap
and electronic properties. WS2(1-x)Se2x is a family of alloys derived from intrinsically p-type
WSe2 and intrinsically n-type WS2 with variable alloy compositions. The alloys are formed by
substituting some of the sulfur atoms in WS2 with selenium atoms. Herein, we report a salt-
assisted CVD method for the alloy WS2(1-x)Se2x monolayers growth on SiO2/Si substrates with
controllable composition. WS2(1-x)Se2x alloy materials with high crystallinity are synthesized. The
band gap in the WS2(1-x)Se2x alloy can be controlled by varying the composition of the source
materials (amount of S/Se with different ratios). The bandgap of the alloy decreases as the Se
concentration increases, which is due to the larger atomic radius of Se compared to S, leading to
a decrease in the effective mass of the electrons and holes (Fig. 1). The synthesis of WS 2(1-x)Se2x
monolayer with tunable optical and electronic properties is important for various applications,
such as optoelectronics, catalysis, and energy conversion devices.

ABSTRACT

In this report, a coupled spring structure is optimized for displacement in the z direction while
minimizing the influence of vibrations in other directions. We use interconnected serpentine
springs for suspending a circular center to increase symmetry. A theoretical mechanical model
based on the bending beam theory to evaluate the stiffness of the spring system is built. The
numerically investigated results show that the coupled spring structure can suppress the coupling
between the operation mode and other undesired modes. The frequency split between the
operation mode and undesired modes can obtain more than 40%. The theoretical calculation
results agree well with the numerical solutions using the finite element method within the
appropriate size range of the spring system.

ABSTRACT

This study investigates the magneto-optical properties, both linear and non-linear, of monolayer
TMDC semiconductors MX$_2$ (M=Mo/W, X=S/Se) under a perpendicular magnetic field. We
analyze the magneto-optical absorption coefficients (MOACs) and refractive index changes
(RICs), considering the influence of electron-phonon interaction (EPI). The results are compared
with the case where EPI is not taken into account. Our findings reveal that electron interactions
with acoustic (AC) and optical (OP) phonons, through absorption (AB) and emission (EM)
mechanisms, significantly impact the results. The linear MOAC and RIC intensities increase
several times, and absorption peaks exhibit blue-shifts compared to without considering the
influence of EPI. OP-AB phonon scatterings show the most contribution to MOAC and RIC,
while OP-EM phonon scatterings demonstrate the largest shift (Fig. 1). The absolute values of
non-linear MOAC and RIC terms increase significantly, resulting in negative total MOAC terms
when EPI is considered, contrary to when it is neglected. MoX$_2$ is more affected by EPI
compared to WX$_2$ among the four TMDC materials.

considering EPI effects via different mechanisms and not considering EPI effects, illustrated by
the solid lines and dashed lines, respectively. The results are evaluated for spin-up at

ABSTRACT

In this study, carrier transport mechanism, hysteresis, pulse response and UV light detecting
properties of PEDOT:PSS/ZnO nanorods (NRs)/ZnO:Ga (GZO) heterostructures will be
discussed for clarifying the possibility of their application to optical-control-type resistive
analogue neuromorphic devices. The ZnO NRs layers were grown on the ion-plated GZO seed
layers (thickness: 200 nm) by chemical bath deposition (CBD) under different growth conditions.
The PEDOT:PSS layers were formed on the CBD ZnO NRs layers by spin-coating (3,000 rpm,
30 s), followed by thermal annealing in air at 80 ºC for 20 min. Many heterostructures exhibited
hysteresis loops on their voltage-current curves and the increase in reverse current under the
irradiation of UV light [1]. When the pulse series given in Fig. 1a was applied to the
heterostructure, the current taken under the application of the reading pulse increased with the
increase in the number of the potentiation pulses, but decreased with the increase in the number
of the depression pulses as shown in Fig. 1b.

Figure 1. (a) Schematic diagram of pulse series for potentiating, depressing and reading. (b)
Potentiation and depression of current taken under the application of the pulse series
shown in panel (a).
This result indicates that the conductivity of the heterostructure can be controlled by the polarity
and number of the stimulation pulse, that is to say, analog-like conductivity control. When two
rectangular pulses (amplitude: 5 V, width: 50 ms) were applied to the heterostructure at different
time intervals, the ratio (A2/A1) of the current generated by the second pulse (A2) to that by the
first pulse (A1) decreased with increasing the time interval. The time interval-A2/A1 (paired-pulse
facilitation; PPF) curve could be expressed by the summation of the two exponential functions
with different time constants, resembling the PPF observed on the excitatory synapses [2].

ABSTRACT

Spinel ZnGa2O4 has a wide bandgap energy of 4.4-4.7 eV and usually exhibits n-type
conduction. Recently successful growth of ZnGa 2O4 films with p-type conduction was reported
by Chikoidze et al. This material is expected to be applied in a wide range of field such as
transparent conducting films, deep UV light detectors, chemical- and gas-sensors, photocatalysts
for water splitting and host material for phosphors. In this study, vapor-liquid-solid growth of
ZnGa2O4 nanowires (NWs) was performed by atmospheric-pressure chemical vapor deposition
using Zn, Ga and H2O as source materials and sputtered Au film as a catalyst. It was found that
both the growth temperature (Tg) and the distance between the source boat for Zn and Ga and the
substrate are important factors for obtaining ZnGa 2O4 NWs. Figure 1a shows the X-ray
diffraction (XRD) pattern and SEM image of the ZnGa2O4 NWs grown at Tg=975 °C. Most of
the XRD peaks can be attribute to the crystallographic planes of spinel ZnGa 2O4. The diameter of
the NW ranges from 100 to 140 nm. Fig. 1b shows photoluminescence (PL) and
photoluminescence excitation (PLE) spectra of the ZnGa2O4 NWs. The PL spectrum taken under
the excitation with the UV light of 240 nm is dominated by a b blue band (BB) emission with the
peak at 412 nm (3.01 eV). The PLE spectrum for the BB emission exhibits a dominant peak at
249 nm (4.98 eV). Very large energy difference of 1.97 eV between the peaks of the PL and PLE
spectra suggests the strong coupling with phonons [2].

sputtering method, the gate electrode was fabricated by SiO 2-oxidation technique, the SOG/SOD
method was used to dope the n+ region, the wire bonding and packaging technique was used on
this project. The ISFET array was successfully developed with 8 transistor on chip, the
width/length of gate electrode is 16µm/6m and the thickness is 6nm. The characteristics of the
transistor array was investigated by using Keithley 420SCS Instrument; the threshold voltage
was -0.7V with IDSmax = 1mA (Fig. 1). The pH sensitive characteristic of the developed transistor
was surveyed on range of 2-12 and the sensitivity of sensor was 16mV/pH with LOQ is lower
than 0.05 pH, LOD = 0.01pH (Fig. 2). The pH sensor was tested with the solutions of some lake
in Hoa Binh province (such as: Hoa Binh hydropower reservoir, Chau – Da Bac Lake, Tinh-Da
Bac Lake) with the high reliability and low RSD. The obtained results have opened up the
possibility of developing compact - fast - real-time and reliable analytical systems to meet the
needs of analysis in seafood production and environmental monitoring in Vietnam.

ABSTRACT

We try to synthesize graphene-metal oxide composites to generate transparent conductive films

that are stable, flexible, and able to cover huge areas. Furthermore, we substitute sodium silicate
solution (Na2SiO3, water glass) for traditional silica production materials like TMOS and TEOS,
which are non-toxic and affordable. By varying the ratio of SiO 2 to Na2O in the solution, sodium
silicate can be made into a water-soluble solution. The GO-Na2SiO3/AgNW/GO-Na2SiO3 film
exhibits a more uniform coating compared to GO/AgNW/GO, according to the results of the spin
coating experiment. Furthermore, the GO-Na2SiO3/AgNW/GO-Na2SiO3 composite exhibits
homogeneous coating and better transmittance and conductivity under the same circumstances.
This is because when spin-coating with the GO-Na2SiO3 solution instead of GO alone, the
presence of Na+ ions in the Na2SiO3 solution promotes a more uniform coating.

ABSTRACT

In the era of rapid development of the Internet, cloud computing, and artificial intelligence, the
remarkable expansion of unstructured data and its increasing complexity have exposed the
limitations of conventional systems that use transistor-based memory for synapses. In order to
create computing systems that replicate the brain's efficiency, building brain-like devices,
particularly improved artificial synapses, is essential. A memristor, a two-terminal device, that
emulates synaptic activity in biological systems, is poised to play a crucial role in advancing
neuromorphic computing. Additionally, the simplicity of memristor structures facilitates their
integration into passive crossbar arrays. This design enables the placement of a compact
memristive cell at each intersection of multiple electrode lines, resulting in extremely high
density and a reduced cell area of 4F2. In this study, a 16 x 16 crossbar memristor array with a
CrOx/TiOx structure sandwiched between Cr and Ti electrodes was fabricated and patterned
using sputtering and photolithography techniques. The stacked switching layers, CrOx/TiOx,
were examined under various fabrication conditions to achieve devices with optimal storage and
synaptic performance.

Keywords: memristor, crossbar array, self-rectifying, chromium oxide.

ABSTRACT

This research reports the functionalization multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) with
cysteaminium chloride via the formation of an ionic bond with the carboxylic acid groups present
in the purified MWCNTs. A novel –COO-/NH3+ zwitterionic onto the material surface has been
synthetized and confirmed by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and Fourier transform infrared
spectra. The assembly of gold nanoparticles was made by their spontaneous chemical adsorption
to MWCNTs via S-Au bonds (Fig. 1). Scanning Electron Microscopy images clearly show that
gold NPs have been attached on MWCNTs.

ABSTRACT

MoS2 is widely recognized as the most extensively studied and well-known member of the
transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) because it possesses a range of outstanding properties,
such as multiple energy band gaps, a high current ratio, superior carrier mobility, impressive
mechanical strength, and remarkable flexibility. The purpose of this study is to synthesize MoS 2
using the hydrothermal method. The precursors used are Na 2MoO4 and NH4SCN, and various
fabricating conditions are explored, including temperature, time, and the S/Mo precursor ratio.
The resulting material, 2H-MoS2, is then analyzed for its structural morphology and chemical
composition using XRD, Raman, TEM, and SEM techniques. The results indicate that the
highest purity of 2H-MoS2 material is achieved under hydrothermal conditions, specifically at a
temperature of 240 °C, a duration of 16 hours, and an S/Mo ratio of 5:1. This study offers
valuable insights into the large-scale synthesis of MoS2 materials with exceptional crystalline
quality.

ABSTRACT

In this study, we present the results of investigating the exfoliation of boron nitride nanosheets
(BNNSs) from bulk hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) using the ball milling technique. The
exfoliation process was carried out over 24 hours, with an hBN-to-ball ratio of 1:40. The
concentrations of NaOH solution used were 2M, 4M, 6M, 8M, and 10M, respectively. To
evaluate the exfoliation performance of the BNNSs, various measurements were performed,
including zeta size, Raman spectra, Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FE-SEM),
Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and Energy-dispersive
X-ray spectroscopy (EDS).

ABSTRACT

Magnetic tunnel junctions (MTJs) with a high tunnel magnetoresistance (TMR) ratio can be used
as effective magnetic field sensors [1]. However, the high-noise level at low frequency in MTJ
sensors is one of the most difficult issues in developing ultrasensitive magnetic field sensors for
bio-magnetic signal detection [2]. In this study, nanoscale circular-shaped MgO-MTJs with an
orthogonal magnetization structure between the free and the pinned layers and various junction
sizes (80–400 nm in diameter) were fabricated. The MTJs show high TMR ratios of greater than
100% at room temperature (RT) with relatively low resistance-area (RA) product, in the range of
2,8-4,4 Ωμm2. The power spectral density (PSD) of the noise as a function of DC bias voltage
(Vbias) and external perpendicular magnetic field (Hext) in all junction sizes exhibits 1/f-noise
behavior within a wide frequency range from 5 Hz up to 10 kHz. The bias voltage and magnetic
field-dependent low frequency noise (LFN) indicated that the 1/f noise of the MTJs has both
electronic and magnetic origins, in which magnetic noise is the dominant noise source. The
results show that though the TMR ratio and RA product are size independent, the Hooge
parameters of both P and AP states, αP and αAP, are strongly dependent on the junction size, and
their values lower with the decrease of MTJ size, suggesting a reduction of both electronic and
magnetic 1/f noises as the MTJ size shrinks. The results may open a new approach for reducing
not only magnetic but also electronic 1/f noises with the scaling down of the MTJ size, thereby
increasing the sensitivity of MTJ nanosensors.

ABSTRACT

This research focuses on the investigation of the magnetic ordering as well as the structural and
magnetic properties of multilayered thin films consisting of a ferromagnet (FM) in contact with
an antiferromagnet (AFM) with different stacking orders: AFM/FM (bottom-pinned) and
AFM/FM (top-pinned), in which the FM is [Co/Pd] multilayers (MLs) with perpendicular
magnetic anisotropy (PMA) and the AFM is an IrMn thin layer. The results show that magnetic
parameters, e.g. coercivity (HC) and exchange bias field (HEB) of the bottom-pinned and top-
pinned structures are significantly different. There is a noticeable enhancement in H C in the
AFM/FM bottom-pinned structure in comparison with the pure FM film, but almost no exchange
bias effect is observed at room temperature (RT). In contrast, the H C value is almost unchanged
in the FM/AFM top-pinned structure as compared to the FM [Co/Pd] MLs, but a large H EB up to
125 Oe is observed at RT. In order to determine the interfacial ordering of magnetic moments in
the AFM/FM and FM/AFM films, low-temperature studies of magnetizations were carried out
after field cooling (FC) and zero-field cooling (ZFC) for these two structures. Based on the
difference between the magnetization reversal of the top- and bottom-pinned films, models of the
spin configuration in FM and AFM layers with different stacking orders were proposed to
visualize the FM-AFM interaction in these MLs. The important role of magnetic ordering at the
FM/AFM interface on the magnetic properties and magnetization reversal in these structures is
revealed. The research opens the possibility of tuning the H EB and HC parameters in the FM/AFM
structures by changing the growth order of the FM and AFM layers.

ABSTRACT

In recent years, there has been a significant amount of interest in 2D layerd heterojunctions based
on transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) for potential electrical and optoelectronic
applications. This is because these structures possess distinct optical, transport, and interfacial
features. In this work, we focus on the synthesis of MoS 2-WSe2 lateral heterojunctions using a
two-step chemical vapor deposition (CVD) method. The as-grown heterojunctions can be readily
identified under an optical microscope (OM). Raman and photoluminescence (PL) imaging
techniques are used to confirm the presence of lateral heterojunctions. Atomic force microscopy
(AFM) is employed to observe the shapes and the dimensions of the heterojunctions in detail.

ABSTRACT

Thin multilayered films (MLs) composed of repeating 3d ferromagnet / 4d(5d) heavy metal
bilayers with strong perpendicular magnetic anisotropy (PMA) are promising candidates for the
design and fabrication of novel magnetic memory. The high thermal and magnetic stability of
these films allows patterning them into nanoscale structures, while maintaining their magnetic
and magnetoelectric parameters. It is a challenging task to develop a simple, easy-to-implement,
inexpensive and reproducible technique for fabrication of large-scale highly-ordered arrays of
multilayered magnetic nanostructures. In this work, we demonstrate that high-ordered porous
anodic alumina (PAA) membranes offer a great potential as a template for MLs deposition (Fig.
1(a)). This allows to produce nanoporous structures with a size determined by pore periodicity
and interpore distance of less than 100 nm. The PAA membranes are obtained by electrochemical
oxidation of aluminum foil (A99, 100 μm) in oxalic (3 %) electrolytes at constant voltage (40 or
60 V) via a two-step anodization process. After the first stage, the initial oxide layer is removed
in the selective etcher (based on phosphoric acid and kalium bichromate), and the second stage of
anodizing is conducted under the same conditions until oxidation is completed (at 60 V) or
current drops below 0.01 A (at 40 V). Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images of a cross-
section of PAA templates (Fig. 1) demonstrate highly ordered pore arrays with strict periodicity
of the location of the pore channels, including their equidistance, constant width and parallelism
of the walls to each other throughout the entire depth of the membrane. In addition, the interpore
distance can be adjusted by changing the applied anodizing voltage (Fig. 1) that allows tuning the
size of the formed PMA nanostructures.

ABSTRACT

Recently, compact wearable electronic devices have been receiving great research attention
because of the increasing demand in the practical industry. Their basis are electronic circuits
printed from conductive inks, which need to meet requirements such as non-toxic,
environmentally durable, and low cost. Particularly, graphene-based printing ink has been widely
researched and developed because of the unique properties of graphene 2D nanosheets such as
extreme electrical and thermal conductivity, superior chemical stability, and environmental
friendliness [1]. In this report, highly conductive inks based on graphene nanoflakes have been
manufactured with a low-cost and straightfor fabrication method. The graphene ink was printed
on a paper substrate and revealed a high electrical conductivity of 10 5 S/m after rolling
compression and thermal treatment at 180 oC. Then after, the responsibility of the RFID tag
printed from obtained graphene ink (Fig. 1) was demonstrated.

ABSTRACT

The report presents the result of studying the dispersion ability of expanded graphite (EG) in
different solvents (So). EG is a product obtained from our group's previous research using the
thermal shock method of GIC (Graphite Intercalation Compound) particles on a pilot-scale
equipment system, aiming for semi-industrial production [1]. The solvents were selected based
on the Hildebrand solubility parameter theory and Hansen’s one [2]. The surface properties of
EG were investigated through measuring the contact angle between the solvent’s liquid droplet
and the EG’s sheet surface. The dispersion ability of EG is evaluated through particle size and
viscosity with the participation of surfactants. Surveying over time that EG aggregates and settles
to the bottom of each solvent using photography method. The results obtained in this article have
the potential to be applied to polymer modification to improve or enhance the mechanical,
electrical and thermal properties of polymer-graphene composites.

ABSTRACT

The quest to tailor the soft magnetic properties of materials has captivated both academic and
industrial realms, driven by their vast potential for transformative applications, i. e., from energy-
efficient devices to cutting-edge sensors and data storage technologies [1,2]. In this study, we
unveil an innovative approach to manipulate the magnetic susceptibility and related properties of
soft magnetic materials through geometric designs by investigating the nano-honeycomb
structure (HC) with various wall-widths (w) from 100 to 500 nm and the continuous pattern (CS).
The micromagnetic simulations based on MuMax 3 unveiled a captivating phenomenon that HCs
with smaller w can accommodate a higher density of domain walls (Figure 1.a). These domain
walls, the boundaries separating regions of different magnetic orientations, play a pivotal role in
determining the magnetic response of materials. The magnetic field dependence of the
magnetisation revealed a striking correlation, at which the magnetic susceptibility exhibited a
profound dependence on the w of these HCs, with narrower widths yielding higher
susceptibilities. Remarkably, the susceptibilities of these HCs surpassed those of their continuous
counterparts, unveiling the profound influence of geometry on magnetic behavior (Figure 1.c).
This intricate interplay between geometry and domain dynamics gives rise to the observed
geometrical dependence of the magnetic susceptibility, a notable manifestation of the profound
influence of structural design on material properties. The optimised wall-width in the HC
configuration will be selected so that the magnetisation dynamics of HC with optimal w will be
compared with other geometries such as triangular, curved triangular, and squared shapes. This
pioneering work heralds a paradigm shift in the design and engineering of magnetic materials. By
harnessing the power of geometric ingenuity, we have unlocked a new frontier in the
manipulation of magnetic properties, paving the way for unprecedented control and optimization
in magnetisation processes.

ABSTRACT

Palladium (Pd) metal has been well-known as a transition metal which has the highest Stoner
factor (I=9.87) and Pauli susceptibility [1] among the non-magnetic transition metals. Therefore,
it was predicted that Palladium could be turned into a ferromagnet in some circumstances.
Several predictions showed that the magnetism of Pd could occur when the Pd is under quantum
confinement in 0-dimension nanoparticles or when small number of layers of Pd thin film were
considered [2,3]. In this current study, we systematically study the electronic structure and
magnetic properties of different magnetic structures of Pd in either fcc cubic crystal structure or
thin film structure of Pd by using the first principles calculations. The symmetry of those
structures is analyzed in detail aiming at providing deep understanding the magnetic structure of
Pd.

MFe2O4 (M = Co, Fe, Mn) nanoparticles were successfully formed through chemical co-
precipitation technique. X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscope and energy dispersion
X-ray analysis were used to investigate the structure and microstructure properties of samples.
The investigated structural properties include phases formed, crystallite size, cation distribution,
hopping length, bond length, edge length, shared and unshared octahedral edge length. Scanning
electron microphotographs (SEM) of the prepared samples demonstrated well-defined crystalline
nanoparticles. The existence of every element (Co, Fe, Mn and O) and no discernible impurities
in the samples is confirmed by the EDX analysis. The presence of five active modes in Raman
spectra confirms the spinel structure of the MFe 2O4 nanoparticles. The direct band gap energy
estimated through UV–visible technique varies in the range of 2.4–2.7 eV indicating the
semiconducting behavior of the prepared samples. This result is further confirmed by
photoluminescence (PL) emission spectra.

ABSTRACT

Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) with flower-like morphology have attracted significant interest due
to their unique optical properties and potential applications in various fields. In this study, we
present a simple, rapid and low-cost method for the fabrication of flower-shaped silver
nanoparticles based on electrochemical deposition. The fabrication process involves controlled
electrochemical deposition of silver on a silicon substrate in an ethanol electrolyte solution
containing silver nitrate, hydrofluoric acid, ascorbic acid, and polyvinylpyrollidone. The obtained
results showed that, with the use of an alcohol electrolyte solution for electrochemical deposition,
the high density of multi-petaled flower-like silver nanoparticles with sizes of about 100 -120 nm
on the silicon surface was formed. The prepared silver nanoflowers on silicon were then used as
SERS substrates and they demonstrated excellent SERS enhancement ability, as revealed in
allowing the detection of methylene blue down to the concentrations as low as 10 -12 M and a
Raman enhancement factor as high as 1010 was achieved.

ABSTRACT

One of the stages of the steel manufacturing process is shaping the steel strip into a pipe shape,
then welding the joint lengthwise to form a complete steel pipe. If errors in welds are not
detected, they will be dangerous during use. In this study, various probe designs based on eddy
current, including circular coil and probe-type configurations, were employed to detect artificial
defects of different sizes and orientations relative to the weld length. The cracks investigated in
the study ranged in width of a few tens of micrometers to several millimeters. Both types of
probes were capable of detecting defects in steel samples, with measured defect signal
amplitudes ranging from 3 to 80 mV at an excitation signal of 500 mV. The findings suggest that
the circular coil probe is suitable for detecting cracks on cylindrical pipes with cracks running
longitudinally along the pipe length. Conversely, the probe-type design is suitable for various
steel surface shapes (cylindrical, flat) and is independent of crack orientation. Moreover, the
study demonstrated significant improvement in sensitivity with the addition of a soft magnetic
core. This setup enables defect detection during the manufacturing process.

ABSTRACT

This study presents the results of the fabrication and optimization of multifunctional thin polymer
surfaces oriented for outdoor applications. The equipped functions include anti-fouling, anti-
frost, high elasticity, and transparency thanks to the combination of non-wetting effect and
slipperiness. Regular nanostructures were directly generated on the thin film using the wet
etching method and combined with lubricants to achieve high efficiency and mechanical
durability. The surface functionalization then was conducted using low-energy surface chemical
compounds. The lubricant was added to the initial polymer solution to ensure a uniform
distribution of the lubricant over the entire surface. An experimental system then analyzed the
abovementioned functions to investigate parameters such as contact angle, bond strength, and ice
resistance. The experiment results were then compared outdoors under harsh weather conditions
to evaluate the possibility of widespread applications.

Keywords: multifunctions, thin film, polymer, anti-biofouling.

ABSTRACT

Transparent conductive films (TCFs) are widely utilized in various components of modern
portable and household electronics, including touch screens, liquid crystal displays, organic
photovoltaic cells, and organic light-emitting diodes. The carbon nanomaterial-PEDOT:PSS
hybrid structure is being proposed as an ideal replacement for indium tin oxide (ITO) as TCFs
due to its exceptional electrical conductivity, optical transparency, and mechanical properties. In
this study, the TCFs based on carbon nanomaterials (carbon nanotube/graphene)- PEDOT:PSS
hybrid structure were fabricated on PET substrates by spin coating method at room temperature.
The effect of carbon nanomaterial on the surface morphology, optical transmittance and sheet
resistance of the TCFs were characterized by using the field emission scanning electron
microscopy (FESEM), UV-vis spectroscopy and four-point probe technique. The results showed
that the prepared TCFs had high transmittance of 82.5 % at the 550 nm wavelength, low sheet
resistance of 25.5 Ω/ .

ABSTRACT

Using laser flash analysis, the low thermal conductivity of the pressed Zirconium metal-organic
framework (UiO-66) powder pellet was obtained [1]. As a result, the density , thermal
diffusivity α, specific heat capacity cP, and low thermal conductivity exp of the pressed UiO-66
powder pellet at 300 K are observed to be 1.258 g/cm3, 0.00159 cm2/s, 0.7765 J/gK, and 0.156
W/mK, respectively. Because of the presence of the 12-coordinated nodes with six transfer
pathways, the thermal transport of the UiO-66 particles is preferred through linkers to metal sites.
The low thermal conductivity follows the trend of vacuum < argon (Ar) < air < helium (He) since
the entrapped gas molecules provide additional heat transfer channels inside the particles and
between the particles. The low thermal conductivity along with a weak temperature-dependent
thermal conductivity are elucidated in terms of boundary scattering.

ABSTRACT

The nanomaterial blend of vanadium pentoxide (V 2O5) flowers and reduced graphene oxide was
synthesized using the hydrothermal method. During this process, graphene oxide was dispersed
along with the hydrothermal precursors, aiding in the formation of vanadium pentoxide flowers
attached on the surface of graphene oxide sheets. After completing the hydrothermal process, the
material was annealed at 350 °C for 2 hours in an N 2 atmosphere, producing V2O5 flowers and
reducing graphene oxide to reduced graphene oxide. The shape, size, and distribution of the V 2O5
flowers vary based on the hydrothermal duration, resulting in different morphologies such as
spiky spheres, starfruit-like shapes, and flowers with nanoscale petals. The impact of
hydrothermal duration on the formation of V 2O5 flowers is presented and discussed. This blend
material has potential applications as an H2S gas absorption and a H2S sensitive layer in H2S gas
sensor.

ABSTRACT

Hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) is a remarkable material with a hexagonal structure similar to
graphene, known for its high thermal conductivity. In this study, we successfully exfoliated h-BN
layers in liquid-phase using a high-power ultrasonic device. Furthermore, h-BN was effectively
dispersed into a silicone-based thermal grease through high-energy ball milling. Various h-BN
concentrations, ranging from 0.25 to 1 wt%, were incorporated into the thermal grease with
milling times ranging from 1 to 5 hours. Preliminary results show that the optimal milling time
for dispersing h-BN in the silicone matrix is 4 hours. Thermal conductivity measurements
revealed that the sample containing 1 wt% h-BN exhibited a 61.73% increase in thermal
conductivity compared to the initial silicone matrix. Electrical conductivity tests confirmed that
the h-BN reinforced thermal grease remained non-conductive.

Keywords: Hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN), thermal grease, thermal conductivity, non-
conductive thermal grease

ABSTRACT

Graphene, renowned for its exceptional physicochemical properties, holds immense potential for
diverse applications. However, effective dispersion of graphene in protective coatings is crucial
for its successful utilization. This study focuses on the surface modification of graphene using
silane coupling agents and evaluates its dispersion behavior. Graphene was functionalized with
3-Aminopropyl trimethoxysilane (4%) in ethanol solvent under ultrasound irradiation at a power
density of 2000 W/L, a frequency of 40 kHz, a duration of 30 minutes, and a temperature of
400°C. FE-SEM, FTIR, and Raman analyses confirmed the structural and property modifications
induced by silane functionalization. The successful grafting of silanol groups onto the graphene
surface enhanced its dispersion uniformity and stability within the paint matrix. The optimal pH
for the reaction was determined to be 12, and the drying temperature for cleaning was set at
300°C. These findings demonstrate the potential of silane-modified graphene for the
development of high-performance protective coatings with superior durability.

ABSTRACT

Two-component core-shell nanomaterials have shown improvements in several properties

compared to single-component materials. In this study, magnetic nanomaterials containing two
components Fe3O4 and CoFe2O4 were successfully synthesized by the combined seed-growth and
thermal decomposition method. Results from XRD, SEM and STEM-EDX Mapping showed that
the fabricated composite nanoparticle samples have core/shell structure of Fe 3O4@CoFe2O4 with
an average core size of 18 nm and shell thickness, respectively are 2 nm, 5 nm and 9 nm. The
important role of interparticle interactions in a core/shell composite sample with a soft magnetic
core and a hard magnetic shell Fe3O4@CoFe2O4 is clearly demonstrated by hysteresis
measurements using two forms including: normal particles pressing and particle embdeeing in
wax matrix. The results of the study showed that the hysteresis curve in the low magnetic field
region gradually changes to a smooth hysteresis curve as the temperature increases due to the
decrease in interparticle interactions. The factors such as intraparticle interaction and shell
thickness also influence the magnetic properties of materials.

Keyword: Core-shell nanostructure, Fe3O4@CoFe2O4, intraparticle, interparticle.

ABSTRACT

Understanding of the structure of clusters composed of a few atoms is essential for gaining
insights into the mechanisms that influence their chemical and physical properties as a function
of composition, as well as the mechanism of bulk formation. Studying the behaviors of gold
clusters doped with various group transition metal atoms poses great challenges for scientists. In
this work, we discussed the similarities and differences between the structural, stability, and
magnetic properties of Au12Cr and Au12Mo clusters using density functional theory. It is found
that the global minimum structure evolution of Au 12M is ruled by the bond strength of AuM
dimers and can be generalized into two forms: the icosahedral structure for Mo dopant and santa
claus hat-like structure for Cr ones. The average binding and dissociation energies are calculated
to identify the relatively stable patterns. The molecular orbital (MO) diagram and the spin
distribution are computed to better understand the electronic configuration and magnetic
behavior of the studies clusters. The Au 12Cr has a significant magnetic moment of 4 µB. In
contrast, the magnetic moment is completely quenched in Au 12Mo cluster. Furthermore, the IR
spectra of Au12M are also predicted.

Keywords: Au12Cr; Au12Mo; density functional theory; magnetic moment.

ABSTRACT

In this work, we present a novel method for SERS substrate fabrication by combination of cold
plasma pre-treatment following by laser-supported deposition of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) on
glass substrate. Cold plasma pre-treatment helps to reduce the roughness of the glass substrate (as
seen by SEM images) and increases the surface potential energy (as seen by contact angle
measurements). Meanwhile, laser treatment enables better and more uniform deposition of
AuNPs on the substrate. The combined treatment results in enhancing performance of the SERS
substrate: higher Raman signals (3 to 10 times), better uniformity in a large are of the substrate,
and it can be reused several times (up to 10 times) as comparing with non-treatment one (Figure
1). Our test with rhodamine 6G (R6G) results in an enhancement factor of 3x10 9. We then
demonstrate the practical usage of the SERS substrate by quantitative measurement of trace
amoxicillin (a penicillin antibiotic commonly used to treat infections).

ABSTRACT

Carbon dots (CDs) – small crystalline or amorphous carbon-based quasi-spherical nanoparticles

– have recently attracted much attention as promising fluorescent materials [1]. One of their
widely accepted advantages is the simplicity of the formation of highly luminescent CDs from a
wide variety of organic precursors. At the same time, several recent studies on these chemically
synthesized CDs raised questions about the chemical nature of the resulting products; their strong
luminescence can originate from the presence of molecular organic fluorophores [2]. On the
other hand, use of proper synthetic procedures yield purely carbon dot samples of different sizes;
color-tunable fluorescence of CDs with blue, green, yellow, orange, red and even near-infrared
emission [3] can be achieved, with the color depending on size of the π-conjugated domains in
the CD graphitic core [4]. Recently, we have extended the family of these light-emitting colloidal
carbon nanoparticles towards other shapes, such as nanorods with linearly polarized emission [5],
nanobelts and nanorolls [6], and towards chiral carbon materials [7]. Applications of CDs in
luminescent solar concentrators [8] and light-emitting diodes [9] have been demonstrated. We
also showed how the accuracy of temperature sensing utilizing CDs could be improved using
multi-dimensional machine learning [10].

ABSTRACT

Flexible and ultrathin wide-band metamaterial (MM) perfect absorbers were suggested and
demonstrated in the MHz/GHz-frequency range. By using resonators of different sizes and
conductive fibers on metallic-pattern layer, the total thickness of MM absorber was reduced. The
experimental absorption band over 97% was 0.87-6.11 GHz. The MM absorbers also exhibited
the stable features of omni-directionality and polarization independence of the electromagnetic
(EM) waves. This innovation is expected to contribute to the flexible microwave/electronic
devices in the near future, and offers a different approach to realize the potential wearable meta-
devices. As the EM wave pollution becomes serious, many kinds of MM absorbers for EM wave
have been proposed. Generally speaking, the MM absorbers are thinner than the traditional
absorbers, but their absorption bandwidths are narrower. In order to ben it, the resistive elements
were usually employed in the MMs in previous works. However, this increases the complexity of
structure and is not efficient for the mass production. The flexible and low-cost absorbers we
devised, which made use of resistive sheets, exhibited ultrahigh absorption in specific frequency
ranges. Absorptions are extremely high to be more than 99% and 97% for the normal and even
oblique (45°) incidence, respectively, in a special tailored frequency range even for both TE and
TM polarization. This absorber can be used in many practical fields such as vehicle high-pass
applications and radars. The absorption of EM waves in a broadband frequency range with
polarization insensitivity and incidence-angle independence has been needed greatly in modern
technology applications. Many structures, based on MMs, have been suggested to address these
requirements; they are complex multilayer structures or make use of external components such as
resistive one. We present a metasurface structure which was fabricated simply, but provides a
high absorption above 90% in a broadband frequency range from 12.35 to 14.65 GHz. The
metasurface consists of the structural unit cells of 4 symmetric sub-structures assembled with
metallic-bar pattern, which induces a broadband absorption by using a planar resistive interaction
in the pattern without real resistive component there. The results show that the metasurface also
turns out to be polarization-insensitive and still maintains the absorption above 90% at incident
angles up to 45o. The suggested metasurface plays a role of the fundamental design, which can
be also used to design the absorbers at different frequency ranges.

ABSTRACT

With the increasing miniaturization of electronic components, the properties of their potential
building blocks gain importance. Silicon and carbon clusters take a special importance in this
connection, as present and future elements for device building. It has been known for some time
that clusters will often have properties that depend strongly on the precise number of atoms [1].
Properties of clusters are measured in the cleanest form in molecular beams, and the talk will
give examples of measurements of the stability of charged silicon and carbon clusters in beams,
both of the Time-of-Flight single pass type and measurements over long times in electrostatic
storage rings. The selective stabilization of sizes by radiative cooling is emphasized [2-4].

ABSTRACT

Infrared spectroscopy is a powerful tool enabling label-free and accurate detection of chemical
and biological species through the characteristic absorption bands of certain chemical bonds,
which are the “fingerprints” of the molecules. However, its application for the detection of trace
amount of analysts has been hampered by the extremely small absorption signal of the molecules.
Large sampling volume is required to ensure good signal-to-noise ratios, which makes studies on
the molecular level extremely difficult. Surface-enhanced infrared absorption (SEIRA)
spectroscopy provides feasible routes to dramatically increase their absorption cross-sections
with enhanced near-field intensities, which can come from metallic nanoparticles, or
lithographically defined nanostructures on the SEIRA substrates. Due to the excitation of surface
plasmons and surface plasmon polaritons, the metallic nanostructures, usually made of gold (Au)
or silver (Ag), enable tremendous near-field enhancement around the nanostructure surfaces,
preferably at sharp tips and nanogaps. Traditionally, Au has been widely used as a plasmonic
material, utilised for broaband SEIRA spectroscopy [1,2]. Alternative SEIRA materials, such as
aluminum (Al), metal oxides and nitrides, have also been studied recently [3-7]. Dielectric
material such as Si has also proved to be effective in engineering ultrasharp resonant IR
absorption and possible to sense the presence of a few nanometer-thick surface molecules via
strong coupling of eletroamagnetic field of the metasurface and the molecular vibrations [8]. We
also introduce some examples of adopting newly developed compound materials for
spectroscopic infrared device applications for SIERA as well as thermal emitters.

ABSTRACT

Quantum dots (QDs) are semiconductor nanoparticles represented by CdSe and InP. Our
research group has developed AgInS2-based QDs as a new luminescent material. Although they
exhibited only spectrally b photoluminescence (PL) due to defect levels, a coating with gallium
sulfide (Ga–S), forming AgInS2/Ga–S core/shell structure, removed these levels to generate
narrow band-edge PL in the yellow region1. An alloy of AgInS2 and wider bandgap AgGaS2
(AIGS) allowed bandgap tuning in the visible region, and a green PL was obtained from
AIGS/Ga–S core/shell QDs. However, the conventional synthesis methods produced by-
products consisting of overgrown Ag 2S nanoparticles, and the product yield of the target AIGS
QDs was only 10%2.
The reason for Ag2S generation is the higher reactivity of Ag + species than In3+ and Ga3+
species. The conventional approach against the reactivity gap is to reduce the reactivity of Ag +
by complexation with thiols. However, this approach often results in poor control of particle
size because nanoparticle formation is governed by nucleation and growth steps, both of which
are kinetic reactions. To overcome this problem, we attempted to accelerate Ag 2S nanoparticle
formation using dithiocarbamate as an efficient sulfur source, and silver acetate was injected
into a heated oleylamine solution containing In 3+, Ga3+, and dithiocarbamate anions. A solution
immediately turned black, indicating the formation of Ag2S nanoparticles, and gradually
converted to AIGS QDs by uptake of In, Ga, and S species. After the formation of Ga–S shells,
the AIGS QDs exhibit a bright green (525 nm) PL with a fwhm as small as 30 nm3.

Figure 1. Synthesis of AIGS QDs by Ag-source injection approach. Green PL due to band-edge
transition was obtained after Ga–S shell coating.

ABSTRACT

Hightly luminescent nanocrystals (NCs) or quantum dots (QDs) as light emitters have been
synthesized for various applications during the last three decades. Among these, NC/QD-based
light-emitting diodes (QLEDs) have recently achieved the external quantum efficiency (EQE)
of more than 20%, which closely matches practical requirements. In the QLED structure, the
outermost shell of the luminescent core NCs/QDs plays a crucial role and must satisfy certain
requirements, such as: (i) suitable passivation of dangling bonds on the NCs/QDs surface; (ii)
protection of NCs/QDs from oxidations or photo-corrosion; (iii) confinement of injected charge
carriers in the emitting NCs/QDs; and (iv) compatibility with both the electron transport layer
(ETL) and hole transport layer (HTL) for efficient injection of electrons and holes into the core
QDs/NCs. Practically, the outermost ZnS shell seems to satisfy all the above requirements for
different kinds of emitting QDs, including II-VI, III-V, I-III-VI, and perovskite. This naturally
leads to many studies that have been carried out on different QDs/NCs with the outermost ZnS
shell. This approach is also beneficial for designing the same QLED structure using different
QDs/NCs to emit various spectral lights or colors. In this report, we present the syntheses of
ZnSe and AgInS2 (AIS) nanocrystals and their shelling with ZnS. They are environmentally
friendly materials without harmful effects on humans or the environment. ZnSe NCs were
synthesized by using hydrothermal method at ~200°C for 2 to 20 hrs to form spherical NCs
with the sizes ranging from 50 nm to 100 nm. The synthesized ZnSe NCs emitted narrow (full
width at half maximum of 15 nm) excitonic luminescence at 465 nm, showing promise as
emitters for blue QLEDs. ZnS shelling at 100 oC for 1 hr was performed to improve the optical
properties of ZnSe NCs. Meanwhile, the systematic synthesis of AIS NCs with different sizes
(2.6 – 6.8 nm) was carried out by templating Ag 2S NCs of different sizes at temperatures
ranging from 30 oC to 130 oC for the same reaction time of 30 min, followed by the exchange of
Ag+ with In3+ at 120 oC for 60 min. GaSx was shelled on AIS core NCs producing the
AgInS2/GaSx core/shell structures that emitted the clear and strong, narrow excitonic
luminescence peaking at 530 – 606 nm depending on the size of AIS core NCs. Toward
applications in QLED, and with the expectation of improving the excitonic luminescence
properties and the photochemical stability of AIS/GaSx NCs, a second outermost ZnS shell was
added at 140°C for 10 min. An example of the evolution of luminescence from synthesized AIS
NCs is as follows: initially, a broad spectrum (peaking at 756 nm) of the AgInS 2 core NCs
transforms into a narrow excitonic emission (at 575 nm), which is prominent beside the broad
one after shelling with GaSx; eventually, only the bright excitonic luminescence (at 575 nm)
remains, without broad emission, after double-shelling with GaSx/ZnS. The second ZnS shell
not only significantly enhances the luminescence quantum yield of AIS NCs up to ~60%, but
also maintains their narrow excitonic emission stably for long-term storage over 12 months.

ABSTRACT

Nonreciprocity plays a fundamental role in governing direction-dependent asymmetric wave

propagation. Non-reciprocal devices have been used in various applications, such as isolators in
microwave transmitters and circulators in communication radars. Previous works on
nonreciprocity used ferrite-based devices to disrupt the symmetries under time reversal and spatial
inversion. However, the magnetic bias increases system complexity, and its effect weakens at high
frequencies. To overcome the drawbacks of previous approaches, we investigate space-time
modulation (STM) metamaterials and achieve new and extraordinary abilities of wave propagation
control. By breaking the translational symmetry of the unit cells, spatial field modulation allows
the creation of reconfigurable waveguides on the metasurface. Temporal field modulation,
achieved by breaking the capacitive symmetry of the varactor, allows direction-dependent
transmission in the waveguide [1]. The electromagnetic field is expanded in terms of spatial
harmonics, and a relation between the amplitudes of the space harmonics is found. In the
experiment, we successfully achieve temporal modulation for non-reciprocal wave propagation
and frequency conversion, which are investigated and confirmed under various conditions.

non-reciprocal wave propagation control.

ABSTRACT

Manipulating electromagnetic (EM) waves of metasurface have attracted great attention owing to
their applications in optical and electric devices. Even though many novel metasurfaces have
been developed, however, metasurfaces generally suffer from limited efficiency, narrow
bandwidth and design to work with single function. In this paper, we propose a simple design of
high efficiency and wideband bi-functional metasurface for asymmetric transmission and
polarization converter.

Figure 1. (a) The 3D-view and (c) top-view of the proposed MA and its transmission under (c)
forward and (d) backward incidence, (e) PCR, and (f) asymmetric transmission spectra.
In this design, a tri-layered metasurface based on the gratings-polarization converter-gratings
structure is developed, which is composed of a two double-split ring structure array sandwiched
by two orthogonal metallic subwavelength gratings, as seen in Figs. 1(a) and (c). Simulation
results show that using two orthogonal metallic subwavelength gratings, the proposed
metasurface achieve excellent AT effect and nearly perfect polarization conversion performance
for linearly polarized waves (Figs. 1(c)-(f)). The proposed metasurface reveals the polarization
conversion rate (PCR) of above 0.99 from 3.7 GHz to 20.2 GHz with a relative bandwidth of
138% and the AT parameter of over 0.9 from 0.37 THz to 1.73 THz with a relative bandwidth of
99.5%. Moreover, the electric and surface current distributions are evaluated to understand the
physical mechanism of the proposed bi-functional metasurface. Importantly, the proposed
metamaterial maintains high efficiency PCR and AT performance for a wide range of incident
angles, thus showing great potential applications in circulators and direction-dependent
polarization converters in the microwave region.

ABSTRACT

While optical absorptivity (i.e. emissivity) of bulk is intrinsic to each material, subwavelength
nanostructures can have drastically different optical absorptivity compared to bulk. In the current
work, we engineer optical absorptivity by nanostructures in the visible and infrared to
demonstrate daytime radiative cooling and efficient photothermal heating. As for daytime
radiative cooling, we achieve the highest figure of merit for daytime radiative cooler by
fabricating a composite coating incorporating ceramic powder. [1] The daytime radiative cooler
demonstrates sub-ambient temperature when placed outdoor in daytime (Fig. 1(a)). By taking
advantage of temperature difference caused by radiative cooling, an energy harvesting device
which can generate thermoelectric voltage is developed (Fig. 1(b)), and 24-h continuous voltage
generation is demonstrated outdoors.[2] As for photothermal heating, periodic nanostructures
having aspect ratio higher than unity are fabricated and their photothermal heating are
characterized by Raman spectroscopy and numerical heat transfer method.[3] The results reveal
that the effective thermal conductivities are reduced compared to their bulk by two orders of
magnitudes at the largest, leading to highly efficient photothermal heating (Fig. 1(c)).

ABSTRACT

LiNiO2 and its derivatives including nickel-rich lithium nickel cobalt manganese oxide, LiNi1-x-
yCoxMnyO2 (NCM), are considered the most promising cathode materials for rechargeable lithium-
ion batteries owing to their high energy storage capabilities. However, the practical
implementation of Ni-rich NCM with the Ni content higher than 90 at.% among transition metals
has been hindered by the severe capacity fading during the prolonged cycles. Herein, we reported
about the rationally designed LiNi0.96Co0.04O2 with core-shell structure by the multi-element
dopants. The multi-element doping not only prevents the interdiffusion of transition metals
between the core and shell to preserve the desired structure through the competitive diffusion
among the constituents but also tailors the microstructure of the primary particles, thereby
significantly ameliorating the electrochemical properties of LiNi 0.96Co0.04O2. Our novel cathode
material exhibits a high capacity (221.816 mA h g -1 at 0.1C) and stable cycling retention (> 80%
capacity retention after 200 cycles at 1 C). Our study opens a new avenue for the design of Ni-rich
layered cathode materials with enhanced battery performance as well as provides the design rule of
the core-shell structure for its practical applications to the current Li-ion battery system.

ABSTRACT

The development of an optical microscope that can truly observe at the nanoscale has been a
long-time dream of researchers. In particular, in recent years, various nanomaterials and
nanodevices have been developed, and miniaturization is essential for manufacturing. As an
analytical method to deal with the diversification of nanotechnology, optical microscopes that do
not require special environments such as cryogenic temperatures and high vacuums and have the
advantages of being non-contact and non-invasive are required. Developing such new
instrumentation in nanospectroscopy and sensing via plasmonic resonance is what our team is
currently innovating on. The advantage of applying plasmonic resonance originated from the
“enhancement” and the “localization” of the electric field. These are of essential importance for
nanospectroscopy and sensing because localization improves the spatial resolution while
enhancement compensates for the subsequent small signal from the nanoscale (~smaller number
of molecules/material volume). Such plasmonic resonance can be categorized into two, 1)
localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) and 2) propagating surface plasmon resonance
(SPR). In this presentation, I will introduce several nanospectroscopic [1-14] and sensing
techniques [15,1617] based on the LSPR and SPR, respectively. Specific emphasize will be
given to the developments in multiple environments in order to expand the potential applications
depending on the target materials.

ABSTRACT

Recently, soft matter microlasers have attracted significant research interest due to
straightforward fabrication, remarkable flexibility, and cost-effectiveness. Among various
methods for the production of soft matter lasers, ink-jet printing stands out for its ability to
produce uniform structures with adjustable sizes at specific positions on a substrate. In this talk, I
will provide a comprehensive review of the advancements in microlasers facilitated by ink-jet
printing technique. It begins with an overview of ink-jet printing technology, followed by a
demonstration of how microlasers can be created using this method. Subsequently, the working
principles and properties of created lasers, specifically the whispering gallery mode lasers, are
explored. Finally, several potential applications of these lasers are discussed.

ABSTRACT

We have developed an infrared spectral sensor integrated with microfilters for acquiring multi-
wavelength or hyperspectral signals in the short wavelength infrared (SWIR) band. The
fabrication of SWIR photodetector (PD) utilized (In,Ga)(As,P) epitaxial wafer based on III-V
compound semiconductors. To grow high-quality (In,Ga)(As,P) detection epi-wafer responding
in the 1-3 μm range, it's necessary to introduce an optimal buffer to reduce the lattice mismatch
existing between the InP substrate and the (In,Ga)(As,P) epitaxial layers. In this study, we
successfully grew an InAsP metamorphic buffer displaying up to 95% indium content. Building
upon this, a series of wavelength (In x,Ga1-x)(Asy,P1-y) PDs were proposed, fabricated using metal
organic vapor phase epitaxy on InP substrates.[1] The spectral response measurement analysis
revealed that our device demonstrated an adjustable cutoff wavelength of up to 3.0 µm. For the
fabrication of multi-band SWIR sensors, Fabry Perot based multi-bandpass filters were
integrated onto the (In,Ga)(As,P) epi-wafer, resulting in a multi-band SWIR photodetector with 9
channels in the SWIR band. The multi-bandpass filter comprises an array structure consisting of
3x3 (9 bands) different cavity thicknesses. Thickness variations are realized through a single
photolithography process, followed by multiple expose photolithography and etching processes.
We deposited SiO2/Si bottom distributed Bragg reflectors and SiO2 cavity layers. To create 9
cavities with different thicknesses, we formed 3D photoresist patterns with various pattern
thicknesses using multiple photolithography resist processes. Subsequently, a dry etching
process was employed to etch both the photoresist and cavity layers simultaneously, forming 9
different cavity layers. After depositing the top DBR, we fabricated a single-chip infrared PD
with 9 channels through processes including mesa, surface passivation, and top/bottom electrode
formation. The fabricated PD exhibits 9-band spectra in the range of 1.4-2.5 μm or 2.0-3.0 μm,
with each band's full width at half maximum being within the range of 100 nm or less. A single-
chip multi-band infrared detector can be utilized as a multi-gas non-dispersive infrared detector.
Additionally, this process is expected to be applicable to the development of multi-band infrared
image sensors.

ABSTRACT

We have developed a hybrid structured, highly efficient micro light-emitting device. The device
structure formed with the p-layer composed of both ZnO-based oxide and GaN-based nitride
semiconductors. It shows the characteristics of light-emitting devices required for ultra-high-
resolution micro displays. The device shows the typical current-voltage (I-V) curve of an ideal
diode with a low non-radiative leakage current. The I-V characteristics are not affected by the
chip size. Further, the device shows that the peak internal quantum efficiency (IQE, see Figure 1)
is independent of the chip size (no S-droop), and the external quantum efficiency (EQE)
negligibly decreases with the injection current (no EQE droop). These features are distinct from
those of the conventional GaN LEDs. We observe that the strain in the multi-quantum wells
(QWs) of the active layer is released by the oxide layer grown on top of the nitride structure. We
found no evidence suggesting lattice mismatch between the layers of InGaN, GaN, or AlGaN,
which would have resulted in strain for the multi-QWs of the active layer. Based on the
experimental data and phenomenological observations of strain release, no S-droop or EQE
droop was present for our devices. We conclude that the S-droop and the EQE droop issues
present in GaN LEDs can be solved by lowering the strain in the active layer, and the strain
released in the QW does not involve lattice matching.

ABSTRACT

Light sources in the ultraviolet (UV,  = 400 nm to 250 nm), deep ultraviolet (DUV,  = 250
nm to 190 nm) and vacuum ultraviolet (VUV,  = 190 nm to 100 nm) wavelength regions
have numerous technologically important applications, including lithography, sterilization,
and surface modification. Solid-state lasers in these short wavelength regions offer the
promise of being more robust, easier to maintain, and more cost-efficient light sources
compared to conventional excimer lasers, synchrotron radiation, and free electron lasers
(FEL). Towards UV, DUV and VUV laser development, we have explored fluoride crystals
such as lithium calcium aluminum fluoride (LiCaAlF) and lanthanum fluoride (LaF) as
excellent solid-state laser host materials because of their extremely wide band gaps which
make them transparent down to about 100 nm. Fluoride crystals have been successfully doped
with trivalent rare-earth ions such as cerium (Ce3+) and neodymium (Nd3+), whose dipole-
allowed interconfigurational 5d to 4f transitions result in broad fluorescence bandwidths that
enable the development of short-pulse tunable solid-state UV lasers. Interconfigurational
transitions also result in fast luminescence emission. We leverage these fast emissions to
develop fast-response scintillators that detect high-energy radiation. In addition to rare-earth
ion doped fluorides, we also explored zinc oxide (ZnO) as a fast-response scintillator for the
detection of extreme ultraviolet (EUV,  = 10 nm to 100 nm) radiation. Undoped ZnO
exhibits fast, nanosecond UV luminescence at room temperature. By intentional doping with
impurities such as iron and indium, the luminescence decay time of ZnO increases by over
two orders of magnitude, bringing its luminescence decay time in the picosecond range. Using
indium-doped ZnO, we have demonstrated the synchronization of EUV-FEL and femtosecond
Ti:sapphire laser pulses with about 3-picosecond accuracy. In this talk, I will present our work
on rare-earth ion-doped fluoride crystals for solid-state UV, DUV and VUV laser and
scintillator development and our work on undoped and impurity-doped ZnO scintillators.

ABSTRACT

In this report we will present an overview of two-dimensional perovskite materials and the main
reasons why this material is a hot research topic in the world. We point out one of the most
important properties leading to wide application of two-dimensional perovskite materials in
advanced optical devices. We present our latest results in achieving single-crystalline two-
dimensional perovskite thin films as well as quantum dots for optical applications. The single
crystals are used for active layers in between two distributed Bragg reflectors. With this
structure, we observe successfully strong coupling between cavity optical modes and excitonic
modes of a two-dimensional halide perovskite. This observation agrees well with our simulation,
thus revealing quantitative coupling strength. The quantum dots, on the other hand, are used in
light emission devices. By changing the number of lead iodide octahedral layers, we show a very
interesting result of a study that combines both electroluminescence and photoluminescence at
the same sample position. This research serves as a foundation that allows us to move forward
with potential advanced optical quantum applications.

ABSTRACT

Up-conversion phosphor materials have gained significant attention owing to their potential
applications in industry, especially their combined use with the solar cell. One of the hot
materials of this research area is the rare-earth doped oxide materials, such as Er doped CaZrO 3
[1] and CaWO4 [2]. To apply these materials for the real use, up-conversion luminescence
intensity is a prominent issue. It was reported that the up-conversion luminescence intensity can
be enhanced by co-dopings of other rare-earth elements such as Yb or alkaline metals. In the
current study, we have demonstrated enhancements of up-conversion luminescence intensity of
Er-doped oxides by co-dopings of other rare-earth elements and alkaline metals. Samples were
prepared with the conventional solid-state reaction method, which were examined by a series of
analytical methods, e.g., powder X-ray diffraction, UV-Vis and Photoluminescence. Observed
up-conversion spectra of Er-doped CaMoO4 with and without Rb co-dopings are shown, as an
example of the current study, in Fig. 1, in which significant enhancement of up-conversion
luminescence can be seen. In order to discuss a reason why these enhancements occurred,
change in local environment of Er ions was investigated by the X-ray absorption near edge
structure measurements with aid of the first principles calculations.

ABSTRACT

In recent years, several new FET devices have been proposed to address the significant
challenges associated with scaling down the MOSFET. The down-scaling of conventional
MOSFETs has led to an impending power crisis, where static power consumption is becoming
excessively high thus affecting the thermal-power budget. Among the various alternative
structures, tunneling field-effect transistors (TFETs) emerge as a leading candidate to replace
conventional MOSFETs and enable continued downscaling, potentially achieving a sub-
60mV/dec sub-threshold swing. TFETs are gated reverse biased p-i-n diodes whose on-current
arises from band-to-band tunneling. Over the past decade, TFETs have garnered tremendous
interest, with various approaches explored to experimentally demonstrate high ION, lower
ambipolarity, reduced Miller capacitance and steep slope characteristics. TFETs are particularly
attractive for low-power applications due to their low off-current, unidirectional conduction and
potential for a small sub-threshold swing. This technology shows great promise in overcoming
the energy efficiency challenge for ultra-low voltage digital and mixed-signal/analog
applications. This talk aims to review recent modifications in TFET device structures and
materials, comparing their performances to achieve desired outcomes. It will present a systematic
and quantitative investigation of the opportunities, trends, and challenges that label TFETs a
potential contender against conventional CMOS in future technology nodes. It will further
highlight the shortcomings an independent TFET based technology library is expected to face in
the advanced technology nodes. It will be shown that TFETs will coexist with the conventional
CMOS through heterogeneous integration to sustain the historical cadence of scaling for next
generation IOT enabled energy efficient and high-speed applications. The primary objective of
the talk is to provide listeners with a wholesome approach to TFETs which includes an
amalgamation of device design principles and corresponding circuit design topologies to uphold
the flavours of More-than-Moore.

POLARIZATION AND TIME-RESOLVED SPECTROSCOPY OF

LOCALIZED STATES IN GaAs QUANTUM RING

ABSTRACT

Nanostructures of GaAs quantum rings grown through Molecular Beam Epitaxy (MBE) are
known to grow along the [1,1,0] direction, influenced by the growth characteristics of Ga
(gallium). Due to the growth direction, lateral shape of quantum ring is ellipse and the height of
QRs was known to be anisotropic and volcano-like [1]. In this case, the wavefunction can be
localized with a crescent shape and anisotropic potential valleys are given in a single QR. For a
so-called adiabatic potential determined by the vertical quantum number (k), various lateral
confinement levels are formed. According to localization, vertical confinement states (k=1 and
k=2) are found in single quantum ring and micro-PL spectrum were measured from different
energy region in a same single QR [2]. Given the two different localized states (k=1 and k=2) of
QRs, which originate from the vertical confinement states, the crescent-like wave functions give
rise to a few special phenomenon. Firstly, there is scattering issue. A coherence time of
anisotropic single QR is shorter compared with that of QDs due to the enhanced carrier–phonon
and carrier–carrier scattering during an inter-relaxation between different k-states [3]. Secondly,
the elliptical ring gives rise to elliptical polarization, but the coherent polarization doesn’t
depend on ring geometry due to crescent shape of wavefunction. In case of k=2 state, the
polarization intensity associated with the crescent-like shape is enhanced along [1,1,0]. On the
other hand, the polarization shape determined by two crescent-like localized wavefunction
connected through quantum tunneling in k=1 state, resulting in a closed path [4]. Thirdly, non-
linear processes occur in QRs, such as the observation of the Auger process in time-resolved
photoluminescence (PL) with non-radiative decay and excitation correlation spectroscopy. This
result shows that exciton decays through non radiative recombination process which is exciton
Auger recombination. It is difficult to be observed in QD environment which is discrete state and
low-density exciton.

ABSTRACT

Two-dimensional (2D) Janus materials with extraordinary properties are promising candidates
for utilization in advanced technologies. In this study, new 2D Janus XWSiP 2 (X = S, Se, Te)
monolayers were constructed and their properties were systematically analyzed by using first-
principles calculations. All three structures of SWSiP2, SeWSiP2, and TeWSiP2 exhibit high
energetic stability for the experimental fabrication with negative and high E coh values, the elastic
constants obey the criteria of Born–Huang, and no imaginary frequency exists in the phonon
dispersion spectra. The calculated results from the PBE and HSE06 approaches reveal that the
XWSiP2 are semiconductors with moderate direct band-gaps varying from 1.01 eV to 1.06 eV
using the PBE method, and 1.39 eV to 1.44 eV using the HSE06 method. In addition, the
electronic band structures of the three monolayers are significantly affected by the applied
strains. Interestingly, the transitions from a direct to indirect semi-conductor are observed for
different biaxial strains εb. The transport parameters including the carrier mobility values along
the x direction μx and y direction μy were also calculated to study the transport properties of the
XWSiP2. The results indicate that the XWSiP2 monolayers not only have high carrier mobilities
but also anisotropy in the transport directions for both holes and electrons. Together with the
moderate and tunable energy gaps, the XWSiP2 materials are found to be potential candidates for
application in the photonic, photovoltaic, optoelectronic, and electronic fields.

ABSTRACT

In this study, we numerically and experimentally investigate the plasmon-induced transparency

(PIT) phenomenon in infrared metamaterials (IR-MMs). Our PIT-MMs consist of two
components, a “bright” and a “dark” resonator. The “bright” resonator is a single bar, which
efficiently couples to incident light polarized along the long axis of the bar and show a b
radiative plasmonic resonance, while the “dark” resonator, made of two parallel bars, couple
weakly to the perpendicular incident light. Carefully designing their resonance frequency of both
resonators and placing the two structures side by side (Fig. 1a) can initiate a destructive
interference, resulting a narrow transmission window in a b extinction band, similar as
electromagnetically-induced transparency in a three-level system (Fig. 1) [1,2]. We study the
dynamics with the time-resolved pump-probe spectroscopy, which provides broadband tunable,
stable laser radiation in the infrared regime. A train of short (2 ps) laser pulses is guided to the
measurement setup and each pulse is split into a pump pulse and probe pulse. The pump takes
most of the energy (95%) and was varied from 1 to 8 J/m 2 in our experiment. The given
excitation sources allow us to trigger the nonlinear optical processes in the PIT metamaterial. In
the ultrafast realm, these photoexcited electronic states achieve energies far greater than those at
thermal equilibrium, therefore facilitating multiple reactions that would otherwise be
unachievable, including hot electron injection and carrier multiplication processes. A series of
dynamical events, driven by the rapid relaxation of nonequilibrium “hot” carriers, which occurs
after the dephasing of plasmons, can be achieved with plasmonic metamaterials. As can be seen
from Fig. 1c, the system immediately responds to the pump excitation at the wavelength close to
its plasmonic resonance (zero delay time) as the transmittance initially increases by 110% and
relaxes to the original static state after about 100 ps. Figure 2 compares the wavelength-
dependence response of the single dipole antenna, which acts as “bright” mode in the PIT
structure, and the PIT-MM with the gap size of 0.2 µm. The response of the single antenna is in
agreement with our previous study, but with much higher modulation amplitude. Interestingly,
we observe a spectral window where the PIT shows very little transient change with regard to the
transmission signal from the bare probe pulse. This implies a PIT window as no energy
absorbed, except the intrinsic losses from constituent materials. The dynamical changes, caused
by the presence of “dark” mode, provide a promising approach to efficiently tailor plasmons in
nanostructures.

ABSTRACT

Recently, the microwave-assisted hydrothermal method has received great attention because of
its advantages in saving energy, saving time, and enhancing materials’ properties. Moreover,
electrochromic materials are suitable for bifunctional smart windows due to the combination of
the color-changing and ion storage ability. In this work, WO 3·0.33H2O nanomaterial - an
attractive electrochromic material - was synthesized by a two-step microwave-assisted
hydrothermal method. The electrochromic and electrochemical properties of WO 3·0.33H2O
nanomaterial were studied by examining the color modulation and cyclic voltammetry
measurement. The results show that WO3·0.33H2O has excellent electrochromic properties with
color modulation of 80.7% at the applied voltage of 3V at 900 nm (infrared region). The material
also has excellent electrochemical properties, working stable even after 1500 cycles at the scan
rate of 50 mV/s (Figure 1). These results imply that WO 3·0.33H2O is an excellent candidate for
bifunctional smart window application.

ABSTRACT

In recent years, the system of artificial intelligence is still suffocated by the traditional von
Neumann computing architecture [1,2]. This inherent limitation has led to the bottleneck of
computing speed and the problem of high energy consumption that needs to be imperatively
solved. To ameliorate von Neumann bottleneck in conventional computing, we began to adopt a
neuromorphic computing model, which is inspired by the neural network in human brain and
allows the system to actualize “Computing in Memory”.

different time intervals between two light pulses.

Herein, we demonstrate a photonic synapse based on graphene/PMMA@SiONF (silica

nanoflakes) that emulates fundamental synaptic behaviors, endowed with both sensing and
memory functionalities (Figure 1). Defect engineering through the modification of SiONFs with
PMMA, which functions as a dual-functional receptor and floating gate, is presented. Our
findings reveal that the dangling bonds of SiONFs are effectively passivated via PMMA
modification, mitigating non-radiative recombination processes. However, the deep trap states
associated with oxygen vacancies, which are linked to long-lived trapping of photoexcited
electron states, remain challenging to passivate. These deep trap states induce hole currents in
the graphene channel, achieving longer retention times through capacitive coupling. The bio-
photonic synapse proposed in this work offers a series of fundamental synaptic functionalities,
such as excitatory postsynaptic current (EPSC), paired-pulse facilitation (PPF), and short-term

plasticity (STP) to long-term plasticity (LTP) conversion under weak light stimulation. It is
found that the resulting PPF index of our graphene-based bio-photonic synapse stimulated by
365 nm light is 177% when the interval time is 0.1 s under the employment of -3 V in gate
voltage. Additionally, after 24 pulses of light stimulation at a frequency of 0.10 Hz, the
relaxation time constant, representing long-term memory retention time, still reaches up to
292.2 s, indicating the critical synaptic plasticity of our devices (Figure 2). The long retention
time of the EPSC decay upon light stimulation underscores the efficacy of the device
architecture design in mitigating the trade-off issue regarding energy consumption. This
bifunctional-photonic synapse is anticipated to bridge the gap between the neuromorphic
computing and sensing data in our life and pave the way for "Computing in Memory",
promoting the emerging artificial neural networks.

ABSTRACT

Organic-inorganic halide perovskite (OIHP) have garnered significant attention across various
optoelectronic applications, including photovoltaics, thin-film transistors, and light-emitting
diodes. Within this spectrum, OIHPs emerge as promising candidates for photodetector
application, owing to their remarkable optoelectronic properties, such as long exciton diffusion
length, low exciton binding energy, high absorption coefficient, and tunable bandgap. A pivotal
method for heightening OIHP film quality is anti-solvent engineering, facilitating nucleation and
crystal growth. However, conventional anti-solvent techniques often rely on hazardous solvents,
impeding commercialization and scalability. The pursuit of eco-friendly alternatives gains
attentions; yet, prevalent options like isopropanol (IPA) and ethyl acetate may leave residues
hindering crystal growth during thermal annealing, posing a challenge in attaining high quality
OIHP films. Among OIHP variants, methylammonium lead triiodide (MAPbI 3) finds extensive
utility in photodetector applications, albeit encountering thermal instability. Conversely,
formamidinium lead triiodide (FAPbI3) exhibits enhanced thermal resistance but undergoes a
detrimental phase transition from black α-FAPbI3 to yellow δ-FAPbI3, impacting device
performance. Establishing stable, highly crystalline α-FAPbI3 films is crucial for demonstrating
high-performance FAPbI3-based photodetectors. Notably, crystal facets significantly influence
stability and performance, with the (001) facet emerging as particularly favorable for high-
performance photodetectors. Diverse methods, including additive engineering, have been
explored to promote [001]-oriented growth in OIHP films. In this study, we developed highly
crystalline and phase-pure α-FAPbI3 films using anti-solvent additive engineering (AAE),
leveraging eco-friendly anti-solvent IPA and organic spacer phenethylammonium iodide (PEAI).
The PEAI-AAE treatment induces [001]-oriented growth of FAPbI3 film, enhancing crystallinity
while diminishing defect density. PEAI-AAE treated FAPbI3 based photodetectors shows high
responsivity of 24.89 A/W, exceptional specific detectivity of 1.56×1013 Jones, and fast response
speed of 450 and 530 μs (for rise time and fall time) [1]. Additionally, PEAI-AAE treatment
augments surface hydrophobicity, enhancing device air stability. These findings provide valuable
insights into propelling FAPbI3-based photodetectors for next-generation optoelectronic
applications.

ABSTRACT

The fields of nanoplasmonics and metamaterials have developed with little intersection. The
recent realization of optical metamaterials using plasmonic nanostructures enhanced their
interaction. The synergic plasmonic behavior of nanocluster-metamaterial hybrid systems can
simultaneously excite localized electric/magnetic resonances and localized surface plasmon
resonances, allowing for even more robust control and manipulation of light. This light
manipulation could trigger specific applications in optics and nanophotonics. Tuning the
resonance frequency to the excitation wavelength will enormously enhance the Raman scattering
by molecules absorbed on the hybrid metamaterial. This could help realize the ultrasensitive
SERS substrates' production by the nanocluster-metamaterial hybrids. In addition, perfect
absorption and negative refraction are other exciting applications of these nanocluster-
metamaterial hybrids. Finally, ultrasensitive optical sensing can also be realized by engineering
the hybrid nanocluster-metamaterials systems' hotspots. To reach the optimum design and
configuration, computational electromagnetics should be exploited during this project to find the
best parameters, such as metamaterial antenna size, periodicity, and their maximum coupling
with the nanoclusters.

ABSTRACT

In this study, we present the synthesis and characterization of a mixed-phase 1T and 2H

MoS2/graphene nanocomposite for optoelectronic applications. Using a hydrothermal method at
230°C for 6 hours, we successfully integrated metallic 1T and semiconducting 2H phases of
MoS2 with graphene. High-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) and X-ray
diffraction (XRD) analyses confirmed the coexistence of 1T and 2H MoS 2 nanosheets on
graphene surfaces, revealing a layered structure with thicknesses ranging from 3 to 9 nm. Raman
spectroscopy further corroborated the mixed-phase composition. Photoluminescence (PL)
measurements exhibited enhanced and distinct emission peaks at ~1.94 eV, 1.98 eV, 2.00 eV,
and 2.13 eV, surpassing the photoluminescence of individual 2H-MoS2 and 1T-MoS2. This
indicates enhanced light-matter interaction. Our findings highlight the potential of mixed-phase
MoS2/graphene nanocomposites for advancing optoelectronic devices, offering new pathways to
explore novel photonic and electronic phenomena.

ABSTRACT

Utilizing electromagnetic fields, wireless power transfer (WPT) is an innovative technology that
transmits electrical energy without physical connectors. The demand for mobile devices has
fueled interest in multi-load WPT systems for dynamic applications. However, when the system
varies, it is a challenge to maintain a steady power transmission to each load and a balanced
power distribution among loads. Parity-time (PT) symmetry, a borrowed idea from quantum
mechanics, can enhance WPT by optimizing resonant structures. This work extends dual-load
WPT based on the theory of PT symmetry, creating a stable system that facilitates more efficient
energy transfer over two loads simultaneously (Figure 1). By engineering gain and loss
according to the coupling component, the working frequencies of the system have proved to be
pure real value in the strong-coupling region. The results show that the system is critically
damped in strong-coupling regions. In addition, the system simultaneously powers two loads at a
high efficiency of 46% each when the coupling coefficients are balanced. Therefore, the total
efficiency maintains about 92% independent of the coupling coefficient.

ABSTRACT

Metamaterials have enabled the realization of numerous phenomena and functionalities that is
not found in naturally occurring materials. Therefore, designed metasurfaces have demonstrated
a variety of unique phenomena and fascinating applications such as flat lens, optical holograms,
and invisibility cloaks. However, conventional metamaterials have been usually designed for a
single functionality. Therefore, metamaterials that facilitate the effective integration of multiple
functionalities into one structure become an emerging research area. In this study, we proposed a
wide-angle insensitive and reconfigurable wideband metamaterial with two functionalities of
absorption (ABS) and cross-polarization conversion (ABS) operating at the terahertz range based
on phase-change material (PCM) of vanadium dioxide (VO2).

Figure 1. (a) The 3D-view of the proposed bi-functional metamaterial structure and its (b)
absorption spectra for ABS mode and (c) polarization conversion ratio (PCR) spectra for PC
mode under various incident angle.
The unit cell of the designed reconfigurable metamaterial is depicted in Fig. 1(a). It consists of a
two-stack structure, with one stack operating in ABS mode when the VO 2 is in its metallic state,
and the second stack operating in PC mode when the VO 2 is in its dielectric state. Simulation
results in Fig. 1 (b) indicates that when the VO2 is in the metallic state, the nearly-perfect
absorption is achieved in the frequency range of 1.37-3.25 THz. Meanwhile, when the VO2 isin
the dielectric state, the proposed reconfigurable metamaterial structure shows the cross-
polarization conversion function in the wideband of 0.98-3 THz. The wideband and high-
efficiency performance of these functionalities is maintained for a wide angle
incidence. Furthermore, current distribution and surface current are evaluated to understand the
physical mechanism of the multifunctional metamaterial. The capability of bi-functional switch
and integration with polarization conversion and absorption in a single metasurface structure
endowed with both wideband and high-efficiency characteristics for a wide incident angle is very
promising for emerging RMS devices in the terahertz range.

ABSTRACT

The metamaterial absorber (MA) has been extensively in interest since Landy et al. reported a
metamaterial perfect absorber (MPA) in 2008 [1]. The MPA has been realized in the frequency
ranges from microwaves to optical frequencies. Among that, broadband absorber plays an
important role in various applications. To achieve broadband MPA (BMPA), many approaches
have been developed such as using multiple resonators or multilayer structures. However, these
methods are difficult to design and fabricate [2]. In this study, we propose a metamaterial
absorber using lumped resistors to ben the absorption bandwidth of the BMPA.

Figure 1. The 3D-view of the proposed BMPA (a) and its absorption spectra of absorber with
resistors and without resistors.
The proposed BMPA consists of a periodic array of unit cells with the period P. Figure 1(a)
shows a schematic of the unit cell. The top and bottom layers of the unit cell are made of copper
with a thickness of t. The top of the unit cell has a ring and a cross-shaped with cut gaps. Four
lumped resistors (R) are loaded on the top layer that connects the cut gaps. The dielectric layer
consists of two FR-4 layers separated by an air gap. The proposed BMPA with four resistors
shows absorption above 90% in the wide frequency range from 3.06 GHz to 8.87 GHz for both
TE and TM modes, covering a part of the S-band and the whole C-band, as shown in Fig. 1(b).
Besides, the absorption spectra of the same MPA structure removed resistors are simulated to
evaluate the effect of the lumped resistors on the broadband absorption characteristic of BMPA.
With achieved good performances, the proposed absorber is potential for the S- and C-band
applications.

ABSTRACT

Recently, magnetic metamaterials which possess negative permeability operating at GHz and
MHz frequency ranges have been studied in both theory and application. This metamaterial
structure can be applied to enhance the efficiency of near-field wireless power transfer (WPT)
systems, underground communication, and position sensor. In this work, we investigate the
propagation of magneto-inductive waves in ordering magnetic metamaterial structures [1]. The
unit cell constructs from a five-turn spiral embedded on an FR-4 substrate. An external capacitor
was added to control the resonant frequency of the metamaterial unit cell. The characteristic of
magneto-inductive waves, such as transmission response and field distribution on the waveguide,
has been thoroughly calculated and simulated. This metamaterial structure can be applied to
wireless power transfer and low-frequency communication in unusual mediums, such as
underground and underwater.

ABSTRACT

Recently, wireless communication systems have developed rapidly, increasingly improving

capacity and extremely fast data transmission speeds to meet the technical requirements of 5G
applications. In recent years, some regions in the world have been deploying 5G mm-wave
networks in systems such as autonomous vehicles, smart cities, and mobile ecosystems in the
range from 24.25-29.5 GHz [1]. Many methods have been applied to increase antenna
performance, and using metasurface in designs is a solution that many designers are interested in
and choose. A metasurface is a thin, planar structure composed of an array of subwavelength
elements or meta-atoms arranged in a specific pattern. These meta-atoms are typically smaller
than the wavelength of the incident electromagnetic wave they interact with. The arrangement
and properties of these subwavelength elements allow metasurfaces to manipulate the properties
of electromagnetic waves, such as their amplitude, phase, polarization, and direction of
propagation, with high precision. Due to the exotic features, an appropriate combination of
metasurfaces has been found to enhance the antenna performances such as gain and bandwidth
[2,3].

Figure 1. (a) 3D view, (b) side view of the proposed metasurface antenna and its antenna
performances: (c) S11 and (d) total gain.
In this study, we propose a method to improve performance in mm-wave broadband antenna
design by using a metasurface integrated with the radiating surface of a microstrip antenna
(MPA) on a single dielectric layer. This approach takes advantage of the benefits of the MPA
structure such as compact size, low profile, and low manufacturing cost, along with the ability to
increase gain and enhance bandwidth of metasurface structures. The single antenna is initially

designed using an MPA structure due to its advantages such as compact, simple to manufacture,
and easy integration into the circuit board. Subsequently, the use of metasurfaces is proposed for
enlarging operation bandwidth and improve antenna performance as shown in Fig. 1. HFSS
software is used to simulate, design and optimize the proposed antennas. As shown in Fig. 1(c),
by introducing metamaterials, the operating band of antenna obtained from the reflection
coefficient (S11) below -10 dB is expanded from 25.5-29.2 GHz to 24.65-33.77 GHz. The gain of
the antenna with metasurface is higher than that of antenna without metasurface throughout the
operating band (Fig. 1 (d)), because the metasurfaces can act as a secondary radiator for useful
extra resources. The maximum gain of antennas with and without metasurface is 8.45 dBi and
7.28 dBi, respectively. These observations prove the high performance of the proposed antenna
can be achieved by loading metasurfaces. Thus, the designed antenna is a very promising
candidate for 5G mm-wave applications, specifically in cellular systems.

ABSTRACT

Absorber metamaterial is a synthetic artificial material with outstanding electromagnetic

properties that cannot be found in natural material. In addition, it has high application orientation
in new electromagnetic fields. In this study, the research team proposed a multilayer structure
applying a terahertz resonant disk system. The project proposed a new method using superior
materials and combining chromium-based disks in multilayer structure. The disk sizes are
different but with the same vertical base-cell size, to combine separate resonance regions, thereby
creating a structure with an extended resonance range in the region below 10 THz, which is a
frequency region with high use. The simple and effective design of this new material can provide
potential applications in the fields of sensors, material stealth, absorption, and energy conversion
in the THz region.

ABSTRACT

Metamaterials are materials with artificial structures, whose electromagnetic properties can be
arbitrarily changed through the composition and structure of the constituting materials. One of
the interesting properties of metamaterials is the ability to perfectly absorb electromagnetic
waves. The electromagnetic wave absorption property of a metamaterial at a frequency or a wide
frequency band is determined through the composition and basic cell structure of the
metamaterial. Besides, the electromagnetic wave absorption properties can be controlled through
external influences such as mechanical, thermal, electrical, optical ... In this study, we propose a
metamaterial structure that can absorb electromagnetic waves at 5G frequency and the ability to
control its absorption properties through a mechanical sliding mechanism. The metamaterial
consists of two layers that can slide over each other, the first layer is a regular metamaterial
absorber, the second layer is a metamaterial with electrical resonators. When two layers of the
metamaterial slide over each other, the frequency of its absorption peak changes while the
absorption intensity remains nearly constant. Metamaterial absorbers have potential applications
for 5G technologies.

ABSTRACT

In recent years, graphene has garnered significant attention due to its wide range of applications
and intriguing properties. Comprised of carbon atoms arranged in a two-dimensional hexagonal
lattice, graphene boasts attributes such as high electrical and thermal conductivity, exceptional
elasticity, and impressive mechanical strength. One area where graphene shines particularly
bright is in the realm of metamaterial design for absorbing electromagnetic waves. This
application has been increasingly capturing the spotlight, highlighting graphene's potential to
revolutionize how we harness and manipulate electromagnetic energy. This study introduces a
double-layer metamaterial structure designed to absorb electromagnetic waves within the GHz
frequency range effectively. The structure comprises two layers of graphene-dielectric
composites, each sharing identical parameters, positioned atop a continuous copper metal sheet.
The resonant layers are made of graphene, featuring a series of circular arcs with a square
resistance of 20 Ohm/sq, while FR-4 layers with a dielectric constant of 4.3 are utilized.
Remarkably, the proposed double-layer graphene metamaterial structure achieves an absorption
exceeding 90%, with a noteworthy absorption bandwidth spanning 6.46 GHz (ranging from 5.64
GHz to 12.1 GHz). Notably, the structure exhibits robust performance across diverse incidence
and polarization angles.

ABSTRACT

In this research, we have designed a metamaterial perfect absorber (MPA) integrated with
magnetic material in the Ku-band. The magnetic material (MM) was prepared using the ball
milling method with a molar ratio of Fe to Co of 1:1 and a mass ratio of FeCo alloy to Carbon
(C) of 9:1. The MPA structure consists of four layers: MM, metallic (H-shape with cut wire bars
at the edge of the shape), dielectric (FR-4) and continuous metallic layer. The highest absorption
rates can be achieved in the frequencies ranging from 11.2 to 16 GHz (with absorption over

surface current and power loss density. These obtained results are promising for the design of
devices leveraging metamaterials, including applications in stealth radar technology,
electromagnetic shielding for health and safety, and reduction of electromagnetic interference for

ABSTRACT

The interaction between light and matter, particularly involving quantum emitters and optical
cavities, is crucial in fundamental quantum photonics and the advancement of optoelectronics.
Resonant metasurfaces have been established as effective platforms for customizing the
spontaneous emission of these emitters.

resolved photoluminescence (PL) investigations, reflectivity measurements, and numerical

simulations confirming the coupling between the perovskites and photonic modes. Notably, a
spatial mapping technique is introduced to examine Purcell enhancement. By utilizing
fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy (FLIM), a direct connection is established between the
PL and lifetimes of the quasi-2D perovskites across spatial distributions when positioned on the
metasurface (Figure 1). This correlation yields unprecedented insights into emitter distribution
and interactions with the resonator. This methodology presents a new approach for exploring
quantum optics, optoelectronics, and medical imaging by enabling the spatial mapping of both
PL intensity and lifetime. It facilitates the discrimination between uncoupled quantum emitters
and those coupled with various types of resonators.

ABSTRACT

Recently, hybrid plasmonic waveguides have attracted intensive research interest for numerous
applications, especially in high density integrated photonic circuits. The coupling length is a
critical parameter used to evaluate the cross-talk between the adjacent waveguides. The coupling
length ultimately limits the integration density of photonic components. In general, the cross-talk
is dependent on the level of the field confinement. The strong field confinement in each single
waveguide will give rise to the long coupling length resulting the low cross-talk. In this tudy, we
investigate coupling between two metal strip hybrid plasmonic waveguides via varying
representive geometrical parameters. The investigated results show that the coupling length
depends strongly on the dimensions of the dielectric waveguide and metal strip.

Keywords: Hybrid plasmonic waveguide, hybrid gap plasmon, finite element method.

ABSTRACT

In this study, we theoretically calculated that the optical absorption of the graphene layer could
be increased nearly twenty-five times compared to the value of 2.3% of the bare layer in the
vacuum environment. This enhancement was achieved through the incorporation of an optical
microcavity comprising two metallic mirrors separated by an LC distance. The obtained results
contribute significantly to the all-optical control of graphene layers, holding significant potential
for optoelectronic applications and opening the way for future advancements in the field.

ABSTRACT

This work presents a numerical study of triangular plasmonic metasurface-based refractive index
sensors that have high sensitivity in the near-infrared region [1-3]. The triangular plasmonic
structure consists of triangular disk silver (Ag) on a special metal-dielectric substrate. This
substrate consists of SiO2/Ag layers on Si solid to strong confinement of incoming light, the Ag
thin film have a thickness of 100 nm to block all transmission through the structure. Two
simulation methods of boundary element method (BEM) and finite-difference time-domain
(FDTD) are used to determine the optical characteristics of the designed structure. As results
have shown, the strong confinement of incident light localized inside the SiO 2 spacer-layer, thus
extremely low reflection closed to 0% corresponding to the absorption of up to 100% and high
quality-factor (Q-factor). Because of operating in the near-infrared range, the proposed triangular
plasmonic structure has low Ohmic loss. The refractive index biosensor based on that
proproposed structure shows the high figure-of-merit (FOM) to have the selectivity better than
that of other established plasmonic biosensors.

ABSTRACT

In this study, a high quality-factor semiconductor-based metasurface is designed and

experimentally realized by breaking the symmetry of bound states in the continuum (BIC)
inherited ring resonators. The optical characteristics and electromagnetic field distributions of
the metasurface are investigated by simulations assuming both ideal and realistic conditions,
before fabrication and optical characterization with Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy
(FTIR). By changing the excitation conditions (incident polarization) and geometrical parameters
of the proposed quasi-BIC structure, we intensively study the dependence of the quasi-BIC
resonance on both internal and external factors. The obtained Q-factors are up to 1025 in ideal
simulation conditions, and reduced to 305 when introducing the fabrication tolerance and
intrinsic loss of materials in realistic condition simulations. Overcoming the difficulties existing
for the mid-infrared regime, the experimental Q-factor is 68, which is relatively high when
compared to the other works, opening up the possibility of improving the performance of optical
devices based on metasurfaces in this regime, such as optical sensing and laser-induced
modulation.

ABSTRACT

Ultra-wideband water-based microwave metasurface absorbers have attracted considerable

interest owing to their promising applications for electromagnetic radiation prevention and
stealth technology. Here, we propose a high-efficiency and ultra-wideband water-based
metasurface absorber, consisting of a periodically truncated cone water-filled containers made by
3D printed polylactic acid resin. The designed structure can obtain an absorption efficiency
above 90% with a relative bandwidth of up to 154.5% in the frequency band from 6.5 GHz to
50.7 GHz. This absorber can work at a wide angle of incidence and polarization insensitivity and
reveals superior thermal stability. Moreover, the proposed absorber is reconfigurable for tunable
absorption by controlling the water content and type of inside liquids. The performance of the
proposed structure is verified by experiment, which shows a good agreement with the simulation
result. Due to the excellent features such as ultra-wideband absorption, low cost, and
environmentally friendly materials, the proposed water-based metasurface absorber can be
applied in the fields of electromagnetic stealth and radiation protection.

Recently, we have examined the optical force on a graphene layer inserted inside an optical
microcavity where it is aligned perpendicular to the propagating direction [1]. Here we study the
force for the case the graphene layer is tilted a certain angle theta (θ). The results could help to
clarify the rotational action of the radiation pressure force on a nanoobject such as graphene
flakes, graphene sheets for micro-object tailoring.

x)B2O3 + 0.5 Ce2O3 + xTb2O3 (with x = 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 2.5) have been studied. The lattice
structure and some physical properties of the CLAB glass co-doped with Ce3+ and Tb3+ ions were
determined through X-ray diffraction spectrum, transmittance spectrum and absorption spectrum
analysis. The emission properties in the visible region of the CLAB glass were studied. The
process of energy transfer between Ce3+ and RE3+ has been discussed through excitation and
fluorescence spectroscopy. The emission intensity and CIE chromaticity coordinates of the Ce 3+
and Tb3+ co-doped glasses could be tuned by varying the ratio of Ce 3+/Tb3+ concentration.

ABSTRACT

The sidewall passivation is essential to achieve high micro light-emitting diode (LED)
efficiency. We investigated different sidewall passivation strategies on InGaN/GaN blue nanorod
LED, including Thermal ALD and PEALD Al2O3. The characterization of temperature and laser
excitation-dependent photoluminescence (PL) and time-resolved photoluminescence (TRPL)
were observed to determine the efficiency. In addition, the dielectrophoresis assembly method
was employed to assemble nanorod LED, followed by the electrical and optical characterization
of the fabricated device (Figure 1). The device exhibits extremely high brightness, even at low
operation current. This study contributes a significant step to the research and development of
next generation of display technology.

ABSTRACT

In recent years, flexible dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) plasma devices have received great
interest due to their versatility compared to conventional rigid-structure DBD plasma [1]. In
general, the fabrication of flexible DBD plasma is realized using conductive ink printing
technologies, such as screen printing or inkjet printing, which require expensive materials [2]. In
this work, we demonstrated the fabrication process of flexible DBD plasma by using the laser
induced graphene (LIG) method to engrave conductive graphene patterns on both sides of a
polyimide substrate. Under the effect of a high applied voltage, the plasma can be generated and
last for more than 30 minutes. The flexibility of the polyimide substrate allows the plasma device
to be bent or twisted during treatment, thus extending its potential applications.

ABSTRACT

Developing new methods for synthesizing noble metal and alloy nanoparticles with controlled
morphology, size, and composition presents a significant opportunity to address challenges in
various fields. Notably, Numerous non-invasive assays have been developed to support CT
imaging, consequently increasing the precision of diagnosis. The goal is to replace conventional
contrast agents with more potent ones. In this work, Ag-Au alloy nanoparticles were fabricated
by substitution method between the precursor Au 3+ and the previously prepared Ag
nanoparticles. This study demonstrates the successful fabrication of monodisperse, spherical Ag
nanoparticles, and Ag-Au alloy nanoparticles in organic solvents. By optimizing reaction
conditions, we achieved control over the nanoparticles size and composition. Characterization of
the fabricated nanoparticles revealed a size range of 5 - 12 nm for Ag nanoparticles with a
corresponding SPR position of 398 - 403 nm. Ag-Au alloy nanoparticles exhibited a spherical
shape with average grain sizes between 8.0-17 nm and a wider SPR absorption range (477 - 523
nm). Further analysis of the 60-minute Ag-Au sample revealed a 2.5:1 Ag: Au ratio at the atomic
level. In-vitro CT imaging demonstrated a good X-ray adsorption coefficient, and the hounsfield
units (HU) was noticeably increased. As a promising CT contrast agent, the X-ray attenuation of
nano Ag-Au solutions correlated linearly with concentrations. These findings led to a potential
application in the biomedical field, particularly in computed tomography (CT) imaging
diagnosis.

ABSTRACT

Recently, rare earth luminescent materials have been widely used in solar cells to increase the
efficiency of converting solar energy into electricity. Normally, silicon-based solar cells can only
absorb and convert part of the light in the sunlight spectrum (wavelength range from 400 nm to
1100 nm). Most of the light energy in the ultraviolet and infrared regions is not absorbed and
converted into electricity. Therefore, the research direction of synthesizing luminescent materials
capable of converting light from the UV region to the visible and NIR regions has attracted the
attention of many researchers. For silicon-based solar cells, the research direction of using rare-
earth-doped luminescent materials coated on the outer protective glass layer is highly feasible.
Among glass materials, fluorite glass has very high transmittance, approximately 100% in a very
wide wavelength range from the ultraviolet to the near-infrared region [1]. Therefore, fluorite is
widely used as a host material so as not to affect the performance of solar cells. In this study, the
influence of rare earth doping on the crystalline properties and optical properties of fluorite
materials is studied and clarified.

ABSTRACT

Recently, biolasers made of biological materials have attracted significant research interest due
to their biocompatibility and biodegradability, offering promising applications in biosensing and
biointegration [1-3]. However, existing methods for fabricating these biolasers face various
limitations, including complex processing procedures, time consumption, and a lack of control
over laser size. In this work, we present a novel approach employing inkjet technology for the
fabrication of microsphere biolasers. By utilizing a dye-doped protein solution as the printing
ink, we achieve the deposition of uniformly sized droplets into a polydimethylsiloxane base,
subsequently transforming them into solid-state microspheres through controlled heating. The
size of these microspheres is controlled by adjusting the protein concentration in the initial
solution. Upon optical pumping, these dye-doped microspheres demonstrate efficient laser action
with a relatively low lasing threshold and a quality factor exceeding 2000. In particular, our
technique can be employed for a wide range of aqueous solutions, making it a unique and
versatile method for fabricating biolasers from alternative materials.

ABSTRACT

Transition metal and rare earth ions doped silica glass materials have a great attention for a
variety of potential applications, including laser, optical waveguide, bioimaging and sensor …
The erbium(iii) and nickel(ii) co-doped silica glasses was synthesized by using a simple sol-gel
method. Their morphology, composition, structural characterization, thermal and optical
properties were investigated, respectively, by using field emission scanning electron microscopy
(FESEM), energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy (EDX), x-ray diffraction (XRD) measurement,
thermogravimetric analysis, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, uv-vis absorption and
photoluminescence spectra… The erbium(iii) and nickel(ii) co-doped silica glasses shows good
transparent, no impurity. Their characteristics absorption peaks depend on ratio of erbium(iii)
and nickel(ii) concentration. The phase structures of studied material were influenced by heating
treatments that are related to their optical properties.

ABSTRACT

Recently, photodetectors based on perovskite materials have shown excellent performance due to
the significant properties of the material. CsPbI3 material has obvious advantages in constructing
stable all-inorganic perovskite photodetectors in the visible region. Using the numerical
simulation method, numerous studies have been performed to optimize the performance of the
devices. In this study, a theoretical study of inverted p-i-n structure photodetector based on
CsPbI3 as an absorber layer was carried out using the 1D-Solar Cell Capacitance Simulator
(SCAPS-1D) software. The effect of the internal factor of the CsPbI 3 layer (thickness, doping
concentration, defect density), work function of electrode and ambient temperature was
investigated. After optimizing, we get the maximum values of responsivity and detectivity in the
visible range to be ~ 0.5 A/W and 1010 J respectively, at -0.5 V. These results provide a
methodology and approach for the construction of high-performance perovskite-based
photodetector.

ABSTRACT

Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) is a widely used elastomer with excellent optical and mechanical
properties. However, its transparency and mechanical strength can be further improved by
incorporating nanoparticles. This paper reviews the recent progress in engineering the optical and
mechanical properties of PDMS nanocomposites.The incorporation of nanoparticles into PDMS
can lead to significant changes in its optical properties. For example, the addition of silver
nanoparticles can result in the formation of localized surface plasmon resonances (LSPR), which
can be used to tune the absorption and scattering of light. This effect can be exploited to create
optical devices such as metamaterials and sensors.In addition to their optical properties,
nanoparticles can also improve the mechanical properties of PDMS. For example, the addition of
silica nanoparticles can increase the Young's modulus and tensile strength of PDMS. This effect is
due to the formation of a strong interface between the nanoparticles and the PDMS matrix.The
combination of optical and mechanical properties makes PDMS nanocomposites promising
materials for a wide range of applications, including photonics, electronics, and biomedical
devices.

Keywords: PDMS, nanoparticles, optical properties, mechanical properties, nanocomposites.

ABSTRACT

In this study, our analytical simulating model has been developed to investigate electrical
characteristics of AlGaN/GaN MOS-HEMTs (Metal Oxide Semiconductor-High Electron
Mobility Transistors). Al2O3, ZrO2 and Al2O3/ZrO2 gate stacks were used as the insulator in the
MOS-HEMT structures. I-V characteristics, current transfer characteristics, and
transconductance of the structure have been investigated depending on oxide thickness. The
effect of interface traps at oxide/semiconductor interface and oxide traps was also considered.
We obtained a maximum drain current density of ~840 mA/mm, which is 15% higher than that
of reference HEMT and peak transconductance of ~ 180 mS/mm, which is 47% higher than that
of reference HEMT. Our simulated results are consistent with the ones experimentally obtained
recently.

ABSTRACT

Differential geometry is a field of mathematics with a long history, while photonics, a branch of
optics, emerged more recently in the 1980s. The connection between these two fields was
unclear until the concept of photonic band structure emerged, linking the mathematical study of
smooth manifolds to the scientific exploration of light-matter interactions in closely spaced
structures. In this article, we demonstrate that by considering the photonic band as a 2-
dimensional manifold and applying the fundamental theorems of differential geometry, we can
manipulate the properties of photonic structures. This leads to advancements in controlling light
behavior in photonic crystals, driving progress in photonics technology.

ABSTRACT

Rare-earth doped fluorides compounds, possessing the lowest phonon energy, are currently been
regarded as some of the most efficient upconversion nanomaterials. These rare-earth ions exhibit
strong luminescence and excellent photostability. Especially, they are composed of materials that
are non-toxic to biological organisms. In this report, we present the results of the synthesis and
optical characterization of upconversion emission from NaYF4:Yb3+, Er3+/Tm3+ for application in
labeling and imaging cancer cells. The NaYF4:Yb3+, Er3+/Tm3+ nanoparticles have been
successfully synthesized via a hydrothermal route, further protected with a silica shell, and
functionalized with aminosilanes [1]. The micromorphologies and structures of the
functionalized NaYF4:Yb3+, Er3+/Tm3+ nanoparticles were investigated by Field-emission
scanning electronic microscopy, X-ray diffraction, the Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy
and photoluminescence spectroscopy. The experimental results indicate that the sizes of the
functionalized NaYF4:Yb3+, Er3+/Tm3+ nanoparticles could be controlled in the range from 100
nm to 500 nm. Upconversion luminescence spectra of nanoparticles upon 980 nm excitation
contain characteristic intra-configurational f-f bands of Er3+/Tm3+ ions [2]. These results suggest
that the functionalized NaYF4:Yb3+, Er3+/Tm3+ nanoparticles can be a promising candidate/probe
for biomedical labeling and diagnostics.

ABSTRACT

Here, we present a simple method to decorate graphene oxide/carbon nanotubes (GO/CNTs)

composite material onto the surface of silver nanodendrites (AgNDs) for surface enhanced
Raman scattering (SERS). The AgNDs were synthesized on silicon (Si) substrate through an
electrochemical deposition method using a solution mixture of silver nitrate (AgNO 3) and
hydrofluoric acid (HF). The AgNDs were decorated with GO/CNTs by plasma technique. The
GO/CNTs-decorated AgNDs exhibited a much higher SERS activity in terms of sensitivity, and
stability compared with AgNDs or GO/CNTs. Experimental results show that the
GO/CNTs/AgNDs/Si substrates could be potentially useful for efficient and rapid detection of
toxic substances in the environment.

ABSTRACT

Here, we present a facile synthesis to grow graphene (Gr) shell layer on the surface of three
dimensional (3D) urchin-like titanium dioxide (TiO2) core layer (TiO2@Gr) on silicon (Si/SiO2)
substrate as a surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) substrate to detect and decompose
rhodamine B (RhB) under ultraviolet (UV) irradiation. The core layer of 3D urchin-like TiO2
was fabricated by hydrothermal method and Gr shell layer was grown on the surface of TiO 2
core layer by thermal chemical vapor deposition (CVD) method with sodium deoxycholate
(SDC) surfactant as a carbon source. The surface morphologies, crystal structure and component
of 3D urchin-like TiO2 were characterized by field emission scanning electron microscopy
(FESEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Raman spectra, X-ray diffraction (XRD)
and energy dispersive X-ray spectra (EDS) mapping. The obtained results indicated that
TiO2@Gr SERS substrates can detect RhB as low as 1 × 10 -9 M with enhancement factor (EF) of
1.1 x 105. The TiO2@Gr SERS substrate can almost completely decompose RhB with a
degradation rate of 0.069 min-1 under UV irradiation 254 nm within 80 min.

ABSTRACT

In this study, the curing characteristics of polyurethane acrylate were analyzed using four
different wavelengths of UV LED light sources to secure the optimal process conditions. The
four wavelengths applied were 365nm, 385nm, 395nm, and 405nm within the UV-A range.
Chemical analysis and physical analysis of the curing characteristics of polyurethane acrylate
using the four light sources were conducted. FT-IR was used for chemical analysis, and photo-
DSC was utilized for physical analysis. The FT-IR analysis revealed a decrease in the intensity
of absorption as the curing proceeded, indicating the progress of photopolymerization. The
analysis from Photo-DSC showed that higher concentrations of the initiator led to a higher
conversion rate. Therefore, it was observed that the curing reaction was faster with an increase in
the concentration of phenybis phosphine oxide in polyurethane acrylate under 395nm light,
leading to the identification of optimal process conditions.

ABSTRACT

The NaGdF4:Yb,Er@ZIF-8 nanoparticles with average size of about 120 nm was successfully
synthesized via hydrothermal route, that have the ability to upconversion luminescence in the
visible and near-infrared regions under first and second biological windows excitations (NIR-I
and NIR-II). Furthermore, the NIR-I and NIR-II region excitation sources can be used to adjust
the up and down-conversion emission area of the NaGdF4:Yb,Er@ZIF-8 nanoparticles (Fig 1a).
In addition, the temperature-dependent upconversion luminescence measurements also showed
that the sample has good response ability under temperature changes in the range of 83-743K of
the NaGdF4:Yb,Er@ZIF-8 upconversion nanoparticles (Fig. 1b). The obtained Raman
spectroscopy results also demonstrate the presence of phonon mode of NaGdF 4:Yb,Er core as
well as C=N groups of the zeolitic imidazolate frameworks (ZIF-8) shell at raman shift from
200-400 cm-1 and 450-650 cm-1, respectively (Hình 1c).

ABSTRACT

The II-VI semiconductor materials with nanostructures have attracted strong research interests
due to their powerful applications in various advanced fields such as electronics, biology,
medicine, and quantum sensing. To meet the practical demand for safe and heavy-metal-free
fluorescent materials, ZnSe is considered as a promising candidate in optoelectronic disciplines.
In this study, we successfully synthesized ZnSe nanocrystals using the hydrothermal method
from two easily purchased precursor materials: Na 2SeO3 and Zn(CH3COO)2.2H2O, SEM, XRD,
Raman, and PL techniques were employed to analyze the morphology, structure, chemical
composition, and optical properties of the synthesized material. Their photoluminescence (PL)
spectra at room temperature exhibited a characteristic peak at 465nm with a relatively narrow
full-width at half-maximum of approximately 18nm (see Figure 1). Then, we conducted a
detailed study on reaction conditions including the Zn:Se ratio, reaction time, and temperature to
optimize the quality of these nanocrystals. Finally, we completed the ZnSe/ZnS(ZnO) core/shell
structure for stronger and more stable photoluminescence.

ABSTRACT

In this work, AgBr@WO3 nanocomposites with different AgBr contents (from 0 to 10 wt.%)
were prepared via facile hydrothermal method using NaBr, AgNO 3, and Na2WO4.2H2O as
precursors. The physicochemical properties of nanocomposites were examined using a field
emission scanning electron microscope, X-ray diffraction spectrometer, diffuse reflectance
spectroscopy, and Raman scattering analysis. The analysis implies that AgBr was well decorated
on WO3 nanostructure and there is interaction between AgBr and WO 3 in nanocomposites. The
applicability of nanocomposites in environment remediation was evaluated through the
methylene blue (MB) adsorption activity. The adsorption results show that all samples have good
MB adsorption activity with adsorption efficiency and adsorption capacity higher than 55% and
60mg/g, respectively (Figure 1). Samples composited/decorated with low AgBr contents
(1÷7wt.%) show a remarkable enhancement in MB adsorption activity while sample composited
with high AgBr content (10% wt.%) show lower MB adsorption activity in comparison with
pristine sample (WO3). Sample composited with 3 wt.% AgBr show the highest MB adsorption
activity with ~ 80% adsorption efficiency and ~80-mg/g adsorption capacity. These results imply
that AgBr@WO3 nanocomposites are promising materials for environment remediation
applications.

ABSTRACT

In this work, tungsten oxide (WO3) nanostructures were decorated with graphene quantum dots
(GQDs) via a one-step hydrothermal method using GQDs and Na2WO4·2H2O as precursors.
Here, QGDs were previously prepared from D-glucose by the hydrothermal process, and the
GQDs contents were varied in the range of 0.0 ÷ 1.0 wt.%. The physicochemical properties of
the nanocomposites were examined using X-ray diffraction (XRD), field-emission scanning
electron microscope (FESEM), diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (DRS), Raman scattering, and
Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. The organic dye removal activity of
GQDs@WO3 nanocomposites was evaluated through adsorption experiments with different
organic dyes (methylene blue - MB, Congo red - CR, Rhodamine B - RhB, and Violet). The
initial results show that all the samples show an excellent MB removal activity with an
adsorption capacity higher than 77 mg/g after only 30 min of the adsorption process. Notably, all
composited samples exhibited higher adsorption capacity than the pristine ones, in which the
sample decorated with 0.7 wt% GQDs shows the highest adsorption capacity of ~93 mg/g (Fig.
1). These results imply that the GQDs@WO3 is a promising material for environmental
remediation applications.

ABSTRACT

Electrical metal-semiconductor (M-S) contacts between metals and semiconductors are widely
used in modern electronic devices. These contacts form the basis of many device architectures
and are crucial for the operation of many electronic devices. At the interface of the M-S contact,
an interfacial potential barrier, referred to as the Schottky barrier (SB), is typically formed. In
electronic devices, a significant Schottky barrier height (SBH) can significantly hinder the
charge injection efficiency. Since the SBH is closely associated with the contact resistance at the
M-S contact, reducing the SBH at the M-S contact has become a significant challenge in
achieving next-generation electronics technology. Therefore, it is crucial to develop effective
contact engineering approaches to form either Ohmic contacts or ultralow Schottky contacts,
which are highly preferred for approaching the intrinsic characteristics of 2D devices. In this
work, by performing first-principles calculations we designed several M-S heterostructures
between 2D metals (MoSH, Graphene) and 2D semiconductors (MoSi 2N4, BSe) [1,2]. Our
findings could provide a new pathway for the design of high-performance electronic devices
based on these 2D M-S heterostructures.

ABSTRACT

This work presents simulation findings of plasmonic effects in gold nanoparticles and hybrid
nanoparticle-based metasurfaces using the finite-difference frequency domain method. The
accuracy of our approach is verified by reproducing results published on literatures. The study
focused solely on the optical response of these structures in the visible and near-infrared spectral
regions. We investigate the plasmonic behaviour of gold nanoparticles (varying in size from 20
nm to 100 nm) deposited uniformly on a dielectric substrate (silica). Furthermore, we proceed
the investigation with plasmonic properties of increasingly intricate structures, beginning with
the cutwire configuration. Thorough investigation has been conducted on this structure in both
nanorods and metasurfaces. The spectral shift observed when adjusting the geometrical
parameters of dipolar resonators is accompanied by a distinct gap-effect. Probing the electric
field distribution at the plasmonic resonance reveals that the local electric fields in the regions
between particles are significantly amplified. The precision of this approach offers a basis for
further investigations with more complicated effects and structures.

ABSTRACT

We investigate the coupling range and magnetic ordering of the Ruderman-Kittel-Kasuya-

Yosida (RKKY) interaction on the (001) surface of SnTe which is a topological crystalline
insulator. We aim to enable the transition between ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic
couplings, as well as between collinear and noncollinear magnetic spins by manipulating doping
and the gap structure. Here, the gap is achieved through electron-phonon coupling and gate
voltage. The spin susceptibility is calculated by Green’s functions in real space. The modulation
of RKKY interactions via doping occurs specifically over short (large) impurity separations,
with the influence of electron-phonon coupling (gate) only manifesting when the doped Fermi
level lies outside the gap. Additionally, electron-phonon coupling leads to weaker adjustments in
magnetic orderings, attributed to the renormalized Fermi velocities, while gate voltage induces
stronger modifications. This inquiry is of considerable interest due to the potential applications
in the realm of spintronics.

ABSTRACT

This study investigates a method for exfoliating graphite into graphene using continuous high-
power ultrasonic equipment. The equipment operates at a frequency of 40 kHz and delivers a
power density of up to 2.2 kW/l. Graphene was successfully produced from graphite dispersed in
distilled water following ultrasonic treatment for 1 to 5 hours. SEM and TEM analyses revealed
the uniformity and approximately 9 nm thickness of the obtained graphene. Raman spectroscopy
confirmed the presence of characteristic peaks for graphene, validating the effectiveness of the
continuous ultrasonic equipment for graphene production from graphite.

ABSTRACT

In this study, the corrosion resistance of graphene-reinforced zinc-nickel electrodeposited

coatings was evaluated using a neutral salt spray test for 48 hours. Graphene material was
prepared using a continuous hight power ultrasonic equipment for 5 hours. Zn-Ni
electrodeposited coatings with different graphene reinforcement contents resulted in
electrodeposited coatings with different surface morphologies. The neutral salt spray test results
unequivocally demonstrate that the incorporation of graphene into Zn-Ni electrodeposited
coatings significantly enhances their corrosion resistance.

Ni2+-DOPED PHOSPHORS FOR OPTICAL PRESSURE SENSING

ABSTRACT

Parameter sensing through the exploitation of the spectral properties of phosphors has
demonstrated substantial potential in luminescence thermometry [1]. This temperature
monitoring technique enables remote readouts and facilitating real-time analysis of temperature
fluctuations. Equally critical to many processes is the pressure of the system, yet studies on
luminescence pressure sensors are significantly fewer. The predominant optical pressure
monitoring technique thus far has involved observing the spectral position of the emission band
as a function of applied pressure. However, this method is not ideal due to the low sensitivity of
such sensors. Consequently, alternative techniques are being explored, with the ratiometric
approach emerging as a promising candidate. The efficacy of this approach in luminescence
manometry was illustrated using phosphors doped with Cr³⁺ ions, leveraging their broadband
emission associated with the 4T2g → 4A2g electronic transition [2]. This pronounced response to
pressure changes is attributed to the strong dependence of the 4T2g excited level energy on the
crystal field strength, which is altered by pressure-induced reduction in the metal-oxygen
distance. Thus, phosphors whose spectroscopic properties are influenced by the crystal field
strength are sought. An example is the Ni²⁺ ion, whose emission from the ³T₂g level is highly
dependent on crystal field strength, as depicted in the Tanabe-Sugano diagram [3]. Intriguingly,
only a limited number of studies have explored the pressure-dependent spectroscopic properties
of Ni²⁺ ions, and none have investigated these properties in the context of pressure sensing.
Therefore, we present the use of Ni²⁺ ions luminescence in doped gallate spinels as luminescent
pressure sensors. Our research revealed that the strong dependence of the energy of the ³T₂ g level
on crystal field strength cause a significant pressure-induced spectral shift of the broad emission
band associated with the ³T₂g→³A₂g electronic transition, exceeding 10 nm/GPa. This substantial
spectral shift enabled the development of a sensor operating in a ratiometric readout mode
utilizing the luminescence intensity ratio (LIR) parameter, based on the specific spectral ranges
of the broad emission band. This proposed pressure readout mode allowed to achieve a
remarkably high sensitivity of nearly 50%/GPa. Moreover, analogous studies as a function of
temperature demonstrated that the developed luminescence manometer provides pressure
readings that are independent of temperature variations. These findings confirm that Ni²⁺ ions are
promising candidates for pressure sensing, thereby introducing a new class of compounds with
substantial application potential.

ABSTRACT

Nowadays, with the development of science and technology, the application of computer science
and technology to material research is a method that scientists are interested in. In this paper, we
have conducted a study with absorber metamaterials through the method of full surface coding
and simulation in the frequency range from 4-16 GHz. Absorber surfaces in this study have
multi-peak near perfect absorption spectra at frequencies of 5.6 GHz, 7 GHz, 9.8 GHz, 13.5
GHz. This study shows that with appropriate cell defect random creation ratios on the
metasurface, the structures still maintain absorption at the peaks at an allowable level of up to
90%. The study has great significance in practical applications when there may be situations
where the surface is damaged or the basic cells are lost.

ABSTRACT

In this paper, we study the interaction between the electromagnetic fields and electron in
semiconductors based on the GaAs/InAs/GaAs quantum well structures with a three levels lamda
configuration. The lamda configuration includes two lower levels in the valence band and an
upper level in the conduction band. We calculate the absorption coefficient in the semiconductor
quantum well in the presence of two laser fields of different frequencies, one is called the probe
field, the other is called the coupling field. From the obtained results, we determine the values of
the Rabi frequencies, frequency detuning of the probe field and the coupling field. The results
show that with an energy spectrum of the lamda-configuration appears a transparent window for
the probe laser beam. The depth and width or position of the window can be altered by changing
the intensity of the coupling laser field.

Keywords: semiconductor quantum well, absorption coefficient, electromagnetically induced

ABSTRACT

This report presents our results on the design of coupled L3 slotted photonic crystal (PhC)
cavities on a silicon-on-insulator (SOI) platform using Finite-Difference Time-Domain method.
A series of L3 slotted PhC cavities operating in telecommunication range have been investigated
by controlling PhC lattice constants in single slot cavities (silicon thickness of 300 nm, radius
hole of 105 nm, slot width of 110 nm and lattice constant varies between 330 nm and 400 nm).
These L3 slotted PhC cavities possess Q factor of several hundreds and confine light in an
extreme small mode volume of wavelength cubic scale. Based on these results, the resonance
wavelengths of coupled L3 slot cavities have been successfully determined. The electric field
distributions (Fig. 1), Q factors of single L3 slotted PhC cavities, and Δλ (the difference between
the two resonance wavelengths) of coupled L3 slotted PhC cavities which are of several tens
nanometer, reveal the behavior of light in the telecommunication range within PhC cavities with
different lattice constants. This work contributes to the advancement of photonic integrated
circuits and these structures can be promising candidates for applications in fields such as
quantum optics, where precise control over resonant modes is crucial.

ABSTRACT

The transition to a hydrogen and fuel cell-based economy presents a compelling opportunity for a
greener energy sector, currently reliant on fossil fuels. Central to this transition is the
development of efficient hydrogen storage methods, crucial for ensuring safety, effectiveness,
and economic viability. Among these methods, solid-state storage has potential to store more
hydrogen per unit volume compared to liquid or gas storage options. Since this approach has
been introduced, significant attention has been devoted to exploring various types of metal
hydrides as solid-state hydrogen storage materials. Research in this area has primarily focused on
enhancing the gravimetric and volumetric capacities of these materials, improving their
thermodynamic and kinetic properties for hydrogen absorption/desorption, and ensuring long-
term cycling stability. Recently, new classes of materials called medium-entropy alloys (MEAs)
and high-entropy alloys (HEAs) have emerged as promising candidates for hydrogen storage.
This excitement was fueled by Sahlberg et al.'s report of a remarkable hydrogen-to-metal ratio
(H/M) of 2.5 (equivalent to 2.7 wt.% hydrogen) achieved upon hydrogenation at moderate
temperatures and pressures (573 K and 5.3 MPa). Two additional alloy systems stand out for their
potential in room-temperature hydrogen storage: TiVNb-Zr and TiVNb-Cr. Both exhibit a
remarkable reversible capacity of H/M = 2, even after repeated cycling. They absorb significant
amounts of hydrogen (equivalent to 3.1–3.2 wt.% H2, or 2 H/M ratio) in less than a minute at
room temperature and 0.2 MPa pressure. Increasing the temperature further enhances absorption
speed, reducing the time needed to 20 s and the initial incubation period to just 35 s. The
disadvantage of these alloys, however, is the relatively high temperature of hydrogen desorption
from their volume approaching 450 °C. Current research is therefore focused on microalloying of
highly absorbing alloys with a small amount of a suitably chosen element, which partially
destabilizes the highly supersaturated solid solution phase, as our latest research has shown, can
lead to a decrease in both the activation temperature for hydrogen absorption and the hydrogen
desorption temperature from the alloy. Another trend in this area is the application of high-
intensity plastic deformation to absorbing alloys, which can further increase the storage capacity
of the alloys themselves and also accelerate the kinetics of absorption and desorption. Both of
these modern approaches to materials engineering of new metal hydride alloys will be discussed
in my invited lecture.

ABSTRACT

The triphenoxazoles [1] offer a unique set of material and photophysical properties (Figure 1. a-
i). Proof-of-concept multilayer OLED devices have been fabricated by spin coating and thermal
evaporation with a device configuration of ITO/PEDOT:PSS/TpOx-Ar/ZnO/Al (Figure h), and
demonstrated relatively low turn-on voltages of approximately 2.5 V and maximum External
Quantum Efficiency (EQE) of 0.25% for the TpOx-Ph-pCN derivative (Figure i). In summary,
these initial findings offer the prospect of a new organo-electronic material for the development
of innovative OLED and other related devices (e.g. photovoltaics (UV photon capture)).

ABSTRACT

Development of thermoelectric (TE) materials is important, for energy saving via waste heat
power generation [1], and IoT power sources [2]. For high TE performance, tradeoffs must be
overcome, between Seebeck coefficient S and electrical conductivity s, and between electrical
and thermal conductivity k [3]. I would like to present some novel mechanisms we have been
working on at NIMS. To combat the latter tradeoff, judicial nano-microstructuring has been
demonstrated as a powerful method which can selectively scatter phonons and lower k [4]. We
have also discovered various intrinsic low k mechanisms: Materials informatics approach [5],
particularly doping leading to lattice softening [6], heterogeneous bonding from mixed anions
[7], etc. To deal with the first tradeoff, magnetism can be utilized to enhance S via magnon drag
in CuFeS2 [8] and metastable Fe2VAl-based thin films [9], paramagnon drag in CuGaTe2, Bi2Te3,
CoSb3, etc. [10], Spin fluctuation [11], Spin entropy [12]. Furthermore, advances in theoretical
treatments have also been made, with the role that orbital interactions play on the TE power
factor investigated by applying sensitivity analysis to material science for the first time [13].
Anderson localization was also utilized to enhance thermoelectrics [14]. Recently, to develop
materials to rival long-time champion Bi2Te3 in the relatively low temperature region, striking Cu
doping effect in Mg3Sb2: interstitial Cu doping lowered the phonon group velocity, while doping
into the grain boundaries led to very high mobilities similar to single crystals, while being low k
polycrystalline. An initial realistic 8-pair module exhibited efficiency of 7.3%@320 oC, while
estimated material efficiency ~11% [15]. Tuning toward RT yielded 8-pair module with
efficiency of 2.8%@100oC and cooling of 56.5 K [16]. Recently, a single element device of
doped Mg3Sb2 achieved efficiency ~12% [17].

ABSTRACT

In recent years, research on thermoelectric materials have gain interest due to requirement for
alternative and sustainable energy sources. We found that among three parameters which control
figure of merit ZT of thermoelectric materials are (1) low thermal conductivity for obtaining a
large temperature gradient between two ends of the material; (2) high electrical conductivity and
(3) large Seebeck coefficient is needed to generate a high voltage per unit temperature gradient,
we found that reduction of thermal conductivity is hot topic for enhancing thermoelectric
performance. Lattice thermal conductivity can be reduced by structural defects such as point
defects, dislocations, interfaces, precipitates, nanostructure engineering... It is noted that the
above strategies create structural distortion resulting in multi-scale defects and residual stress
inside materials. However, the study on those factors, especially strain and stress, has not been
systematically investigated. Therefore, we will report the effects of structural distortion on
thermoelectric properties of oxide materials in terms of (1) Investigating and elucidating
thermoelectric properties of oxide materials prepared from metal organic framework materials
(MOF); (2) Investigating and elucidating the effects of residual stresses on thermoelectric
properties of oxide thin films.

For flexible and wearable applications, small-molecule CNT dispersion

crystals have the problem of being prone to brittle fracture,
and inorganic solids with covalent networks are prone to
forming dangling bonds and defects. Against these problems,
solids of one-dimensional materials, such as carbon nanotubes Methanol

(CNT) and polymers, have great advantages because their CNT yarn

mechanical toughness is ensured by one-dimensional covalent

bonds. At the same time, the weak coupling between adjacent CNT thread/yarn

molecules allows them to elastically dissipate mechanical

stress without generating defects even under strong bending.
We have been studying flexible thermoelectric (TE)
generators utilizing the mechanical robustness and the easy-to-
spin nature of CNTs. (Fig. 1) By sawing CNT yarn into a
piece of fabric after p- and n-doping, a wearable TE generator Thermoelectric fabric
is formed [1]. This is quite an efficient design for large-area,

of molecular junctions have been demonstrated to improve TE performance: genetically modified

polymer material) develop a potential difference when subjected to a temperature gradient [1-4].
The thermoelectric performance of ion gels is reported to vary with humidity, showing
significant enhancements in ion conductivity and the Seebeck coefficient as humidity increases
[5]. However, there is limited research on the direct humidity dependence of ionic liquids and
their interaction with water, despite extensive discussions on thermoelectric mechanisms driven
by ion motion. Therefore, it is crucial to investigate the impact of water on the thermoelectric
performance of ionic liquids themselves. In this study, we compared the thermoelectric
performance of samples exposed to air, which allows them to absorb water, with samples
subjected to high vacuum conditions to eliminate the influence of water. The samples were
heated and stirred under vacuum until thoroughly degassed prior to use. Figure 1 depicts the
structure of one such ionic liquid, [BMIM] +[BF4]-. Thermal conductivity was assessed via the
3ω method, while electrical conductivity was determined employing the AC impedance
technique. For Seebeck coefficient measurement, gold electrodes were deposited onto glass
substrates, and the sample was positioned between these electrodes. Employing two Peltier
elements, a temperature gradient was induced, and the open-circuit voltage across the electrodes
was recorded. All measurements were conducted at room temperature under a vacuum of 10 -5 Pa.

a Seebeck coefficient of 0.69 mV/K. Figure 2(b) presents the results obtained under atmospheric
conditions. When the temperature difference was applied, a voltage marked by ● in the figure

and upon equalizing the temperature difference, a voltage marked by ★ was observed. The
Seebeck coefficient increased to 4.5 mV/K, significantly larger than that observed under vacuum
conditions. Thermal conductivity and ionic conductivity measurements are also reported.

Department of Chemical Engineering, Dankook University, Yongin 16890, Republic of Korea

ABSTRACT

In recent years, quantum dots (QDs) have attracted great attention due to their unique
optoelectronic properties such as tunable band gap, high molar extinction coefficient, and
potential for multiple exciton generation (MEG) effect. Particularly, owing to these attractive
properties, QDs have been recognized as promising materials for photoelectrochemical (PEC)
energy devices, including PEC solar cells and PEC hydrogen production. This presentation will
discuss the application of QDs for PEC energy devices as photosensitizers. Firstly, we conducted
defect engineering of Cu-In-Se (CISe) QDs for highly efficient solar energy conversion.[1]
Lewis acid-base reactions between the precursors were controlled to achieve CISe QDs with the
optimized amount of Cu vacancies without altering their morphology. At the optimized In/Cu
ratio, we obtained the most promising PEC hydrogen production current and the highest solar
energy conversion efficiency of QD-sensitized solar cells. Secondly, the development of
promising overlayers on the surface of CISe QD-sensitized photoanode will be introduced.[2] To
reduce severe surface recombination at the interface of the QD photoanode/electrolyte, several
overlayers at the photoanode surface were proposed, including ZnS/SiO 2 double overlayers and
amorphous aluminosilicate (AAS) overlayer. This talk will discuss the effects of these overlayers
on the PEC performances of QD photoanodes.

ABSTRACT

Hydrogen is regarded as clean and sustainable energy sources due to its advantages of pollution-
free byproducts, renewability and good combustion performance. Photocatalytic water splitting
employing visible light irradiation is one of most promising approaches to produce hydrogen.
Fabrication of two-dimensional thin carbon nitride (g-CN) nanosheet photocatalyst is studied by
chemical vapor deposition method. It is found that the 2D porous structure significantly improves
the surface area, light absorption, and separation efficiency of photogenerated electron-hole
pairs. The multiple ordered porous honeycombed structure of g-CN with carbon ring in-plane
splicing (denoted as Cr-PHCN) was successfully fabricated by co-pyrolysis of melamine and
glucose via one-step CVD method. The morphology regulation of multiple ordered porous
honeycombed structure effectively enhancing light absorption by multiple internal refraction and
scattering and accelerate the speed of electronic transmission, meantime, the large specific
surface area can provide abundant active sites for photocatalytic reaction. Simultaneously, the
electronic structure modulation of carbon ring in-plane splicing extends π-conjugated systems,
which can narrow the band gap, accelerate photoelectron transport and boost electron-hole pair
separation. As a consequence, the HER of Cr-PHCN exhibited 7581 μmol·h-1·g-1, around 47.4
times than that of pure CN (160 μmol·h -1·g-1), and the remarkable AQE achieved to 10.62 % at
420 nm (Fig. 1).

ABSTRACT

The solid materials in contact with water form fascinating interfacial nanostructures that are
ubiquitous in nature and central to countless industrial applications. Their desirable or
undesirable formation can be controlled using surfactants. Also, dissolved air is inherently part of
water (albeit in a minuscule concentration but fish cannot survive in degassed aquariums) and
can significantly impact interfacial nanostructures and properties, particularly, of hydrophobic
surfaces. Atomic force microscopy (AFM) is a powerful tool for in-situ imaging and
characterizing the soft structures of adsorbed/accumulated surfactant molecules and dissolved air
and quantifying the related interaction forces between surfaces in water. The research is also
based on a combination of molecular modeling as well as theoretical and computational fluid
mechanics (Figure 1). The outcomes have led to a better understanding of the underlying
mechanisms and developing innovations in many areas including particle aggregation and
separation processes, and gas hydration for green energy applications.

This presentation focuses on two topics: 1) soft structures of surface nanobubbles and self-
assembled surface micelles of surfactants adsorbed at solid-liquid interfaces, and 2) dissolved

gases in controlling attraction between hydrophobic surfaces. The soft structures greatly depend
on the surfactant head groups and solid-surface charge and wettability. The soft-contact AFM
technique was used to image the soft structures at various interfaces. Different hemi-micellar
arrangements were observed for surfactant concentrations near the critical micelle concentration.
Both nanobubbles and gas nanopancakes were detected at strongly hydrophobic surfaces. The
nanopancakes sit on an interfacial gas enrichment layer (IGE) that covers the entire area of
hydrophobic solid-water interface, thus preventing their instability from dissolution and
mechanical removals. The IGE is responsible for the strong attractive (non-DLVO) force
between hydrophobic surfaces that now can be accounted for by the multilayer (Lifshitz-van der
Waals) dispersion force. The IGE is also important for developing hydrate-based sustainable
technologies for green energy applications [2].

POLYSACCHARIDE-BASED HYDROGEL ELECTROLYTES FOR

USE IN QUASI-SOLID-STATE RECHARGEABLE ZINC BATTEIRES

University, Sakai, Osaka 599-8531, Japan

ABSTRACT

Rechargeable zinc battery is a promising energy device because of its advantages such as high
safety, low cost, environmental friendliness etc. as well as high volumetric energy density [1].
However, the reduction in discharge capacity due to hydrogen evolution reaction and short
circuits caused by dendrite growth during charging hinder the practical application of
rechargeable zinc battery. We have demonstrated the effectiveness of crosslinked polyacrylate-
based hydrogel electrolytes (HEs) as an alternative to aqueous alkaline solutions to improve
these issues (1). Physical gels are formed by crosslinking of host polymers through hydrogen
bonding, ionic interactions and other intermolecular interactions. Polysaccharides easily form
physical gels through hydrogen bonding and are commonly used as food additives. We have
recently concentrated on polysaccharides as host polymers and have prepared various HEs by
holding electrolyte solutions in a loose network of polysaccharides to develop quasi-solid-state
rechargeable zinc batteries. This presentation will cover the preparation and characterization of
several polysaccharide-based HEs as quasi-solid-state electrolytes and the electrochemical
characterization of quasi-solid-state zinc secondary batteries. An HE of Xanthan gum (XG), one
of polysaccharide, was prepared by mixing XG with different concentrations of KOH aqueous
solutions with and without ZnO. Viscoelastic measurements clearly indicated the prepared XG-
based HEs (XG-HEs) had gel structures. The ionic conductivities of HEs were comparable to
those of aqueous solutions, and increased with increasing KOH concentration, and decreased
with increasing with XG content. The quasi-solid-state MnO2/XG-HE/Zn cell exhibited that the
discharge capacity approached the theoretical one at lower C-rates, and demonstrated the ability
to charge and discharge at 2 C-rate. The long-term charge-discharge cycle stability of the
MnO2/XG-HE/Zn cell was observed over 250 cycles at 2 C-rate. In another example, starch-
based HE membranes (SHEMs) that retain alkaline solutions have been successfully prepared.
The prepared SHEM had both flexibility and mechanical strength. The ionic conductivity of the
SHEM was comparable to that of aqueous solution. Charge-discharge measurements using
Zn/SHEM/Zn symmetrical cells showed almost the same overpotential as cells using aqueous
solutions. The MnO2/SHEM/Zn cell was capable of charging and discharging at 2 C-rate.

ABSTRACT

This study investigates the potential of carbon materials derived from recycled zinc–carbon
batteries for use in supercapacitors and batteries. Graphene nanosheets and carbon nanoparticles
were prepared using electrochemical exfoliation and ultrasonication, and characterized via X-ray
diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The
results indicate that these recycled carbon materials possess high specific capacitance, excellent
cyclic stability, and robust electrochemical performance. The research also examines how
synthesis parameters affect material performance, offering valuable insights for optimization.
Advanced computational techniques, including molecular dynamics simulations, density
functional theory calculations, and machine learning algorithms, were employed to gain a deeper
understanding of atomic-scale behavior and to identify key performance parameters. This
multidisciplinary approach not only demonstrates the feasibility of using recycled carbon
materials in energy storage devices but also supports sustainable material utilization and the
development of efficient, environmentally friendly energy technologies.

ABSTRACT

To tackle the environmental climate change, high performance nanocatalysts have been
developed for CO2 reduction and wastewater treatment, aiming to enhance sustainability. In this
presentation, we will first discuss the synthesis and optimization of carbon-supported Ni single-
atom catalysts (SACs), which demonstrate exceptional electrocatalytic performance in CO 2
reduction across a b voltage range (Fig. 1) [1]. Furthermore, we will explore the dynamic
structural transformation of Cu2O superparticles under electrochemical conditions, highlighting
how their unique assembly and localized reaction environments improve the conversion
efficiency of CO2 to C2+ products [2]. We will also covers the in-situ formation of a
CsPbBr3/WO3 heterojunction on WO3 nanosheets, significantly enhancing charge transfer and
CO2 reduction activity under near-infrared illumination. An then we will introduce a Z-scheme
heterojunction composed of single silver atoms anchored to polymeric carbon nitride (PCN)
paired with SnO2−x. This configuration effectively catalyzes the piezo-photocatalytic degradation
of resilient organic pollutants through ultrasound-enhanced charge dynamics [3]. Finally, we will
present the microwave-assisted synthesis of a BiOBr/BiOI heterojunction nanosphere, optimized
for efficient in situ hydrogen peroxide production and activation, demonstrating remarkable
capabilities in photocatalytic wastewater treatment [4]. These studies collectively underscore the
critical role of designed catalysts in driving forward the agendas of environmental remediation
and sustainable chemical processes.

ABSTRACT

Environmental concerns create a severe challenge after swift industrialization to retain the
country’s economy on top of the table. Inevitably, rapid industrial development releases massive
volumes of uncontrolled carbon dioxide (CO 2) emission into the environment, influencing
climatic change. Thus, carbon neutrality is an efficient strategy to balance atmospheric CO2 by
converting it into useful chemicals or fuels with the help of catalysts. Among them,
semiconductor photoelectrocatalysts are recognized as a convenient, economical, and cyclable
technique to generate useful products including hydrogen, methanol, acetone, ethane,
acetaldehyde, etc. Recent studies identified that Cu-based heterojunction structures dominated as
an effective photoelectrode material for generating more C2+ products, despite the competitive
HER evolution. To meet up, a cost-effective method has been developed to fabricate flexible and
scalable Cu-based photoelectrodes consisting of Cu/Cu2O/CuO heterojunction suitable for CO2
reduction. The structural, optical, and electronic properties of the proposed Cu-based
heterojunction are systematically investigated to realize an extended charge carrier transfer
responsible for high performance in CO2 reduction. Besides, the integration of cocatalysts into
the heterojunction impoverished the C2+ product's selectivity. For instance, Ag and Pd
cocatalysts enhanced the selectivity towards more C2+ products, especially n-propanol,
acetaldehyde, and acetate by promoting C-C coupling with the adequate overflow of *CO
intermediates.

ABSTRACT

Rare-earth (RE) oxysulfides are finding wide applications in oxygen storage, catalysis,
luminescence and scintillation, whose traditional synthesis mostly involves toxic reactants and/or
exhaust gases. Particularly, the commercially available RE oxysulfide micro-powders are hard to
sinter into high-quality ceramic scintillators via pressureless sintering, even with LiF or Li 2GeF6
as sintering aid. This presentation will introduce layered hydroxide as a new type of precursor for
the green synthesis of RE oxysulfides (water and sometimes water/CO 2 mixture as the only
exhaust gas) [1-5]. It will be demonstrated that, through engineering the layered hydroxide
precursor, oxysulfide nanopowders of unimodal size distribution and high specific surface area
can be readily obtained in high batch yield. It will also be shown that the nanopowders possess
high activity for sintering, and luminescent ceramics of a dense microstructure can be fabricated
via pressureless sintering at a temperature as low as 1350 °C.

ABSTRACT

The recent advancements in alternative energy sources, as opposed to traditional fossil fuels, hold
a pivotal role in shaping global electricity generation. This shift towards sustainable energy
forms a crucial part of the global strategy to combat CO 2 emissions and mitigate climate change.
Among the solutions, organic and organic/inorganic hybrid semiconductors have emerged as
versatile materials, finding applications in a myriad of devices, including thin-film transistors,
sensors, light-emitting diodes, thermoelectric generators, photodetectors, and solar cells. Their
widespread adoption is primarily attributed to their ease of processing, lightweight nature, and
favorable mechanical properties. Remarkable progress has been witnessed in the performance of
many devices, particularly within the realm of third-generation photovoltaics utilizing solution-
processable semiconductors. These advancements make them highly attractive alternatives for
sustainable energy production in scenarios necessitating features like lightweight construction,
semitransparency, and large-scale implementation. In the pursuit of efficient and competitive
modern electronics for energy conversion and storage, encompassing flexible devices, a deep
understanding of the intricate relationships between molecular architecture, supramolecular
organization, microscopic morphologies, and optoelectronic properties is indispensable.
Leveraging techniques derived from Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM), such as
(photo)Conducting AFM, Kelvin Probe Force Microscopy (KPFM), and Scanning Microwave
Impedance Microscopy (sMIM), enables the precise measurement of electrical properties at the
local scale. These methods, when combined with comprehensive morphological and mechanical
characterization, facilitate the optimization of device performance. For instance, in the context of
photovoltaic organic devices, KPFM allows for the spatial resolution of surface photovoltage
within high-efficiency nanoscale phase-segregated photovoltaic blends of conjugated polymers.
This elucidates the direct visualization of carrier generation at the donor-acceptor interfaces and
their subsequent transport through nanometer-scale percolation pathways. Ultimately, these
insights contribute to the development of more efficient devices. Furthermore, in the growing
field of flexible electronics, particular attention has been directed toward the development of
high-performance Flexible Transparent Conductive Electrodes (TCEs) based on silver nanowires
(AgNWs) percolation networks. With optimized deposition conditions, these AgNW-based
electrodes exhibit a low sheet resistance of 10 Ohm/sq and an impressive optical transmittance of
92.6% at λ = 550 nm. This combination of attributes results in a valuable figure of merit when
compared to other TCE options. Notably, these electrodes have successfully found applications
in flexible organic and perovskite-based solar cells, as well as light-emitting diodes, underscoring
their potential in the realm of sustainable energy technologies.

ABSTRACT

Copper nanowires(CuNWs) are receiving a lot of attention as a key material to be used in next-
generation electronic materials since copper is the second-best electronic material after silver and
has excellent ductility and thermal/electrical conductivity. However, copper oxidation occurs
when exposed to air at room temperature for a long time, and as the temperature increases, this
phenomenon accelerates and conductivity significantly decreases. Thus, there is a need to
develop practical and innovative methods to produce graphene-coated CuNWs with well-defined
shell morphology under low temperatures and non-vacuum conditions [1]. This study uses a
solution-based method to produce high-quality, ultra-thin copper-reduced graphene oxide core-
shell nanowires. By controlling the surface chemistry, graphene oxide (GO) nanosheets are
wrapped around the CuNWs surface, forming a uniform coating approximately 1–5 nm thick,
demonstrating more stable oxidation durability below 80°C for 10 hours. The graphene-coated
CuNWs can be commercialized as a conductive material for solar cell electrodes.

ABSTRACT

The global demand for clean energy materials and sources has surged, driving active research in
fields such as clean fuels and storage, clean materials, hydrogen, and biomass. Among these,
natural and abundant heat conversion stands out as a promising avenue for clean energy
generation. In this study, we present the synthesis of a transparent and self-healable hydrogel
with enhanced conversion efficiency, particularly notable for its compatibility with natural heat
sources.[1,2] The hydrogel film incorporates nonhazardous, biodegradable anions and boasts water
solubility, aligning with eco-friendly principles. Leveraging nanostructured crystalline
conductive polymer rods embedded with ionic polymer dopants, we achieved high carrier
transport within the polymer films. Transparency of the polymer film facilitates a bisulfate-
detecting fluorescence molecule featuring thermodiffusion of bisulfate. Furthermore, the film
readily accepts water-soluble inks for vibrant coloring. As a practical demonstration, we
showcase a colorful and wearable band-type thermoharvester capable of powering a light-
emitting diode at a modest temperature gradient of 5.5 K. Looking ahead, we envision refining
this polymer composite to align with the rigorous requirements of clean hydrogen generation.
This entails fine-tuning the ionic and conjugated units of the film for optimized performance and
scalability.

ABSTRACT

Li-ion batteries are playing a key role from small cellular phone to large energy storage. In spite
of great technological progress in the past several decades, commercialized Li-ion batteries based
on liquid electrolytes still suffer from severe safety issue of flammable organic liquid
electrolytes. The change from liquid electrolytes to solid electrolytes has emerged as a promising
strategy to come true a safe Li-ion battery. Among organic, inorganic, and composite polymer
electrolytes (CPEs), CPEs are good solid-state electrolytes because they have the merits of both
organic and inorganic solid-state electrolytes. Organic polymer electrolytes are easily penetrated
by the dendrite and have a low ionic conductivity. To overcome these problems, inorganic
additives such as inert fillers (SiO2, Al2O3, etc) and active fillers with ionic conductivity
(NASICON- and garnet-type ceramics) are introduced to make CPEs. However, there have been
just few outstanding CPEs. It was observed that zeolites were excellent fillers in CPEs to
improve ionic transport by inhibiting the crystallization of polymer chains and providing easy Li
salt dissociation sites. Here, novel PEO-based CPEs (YNa-CPE, SSZ13-CPE) were introduced.
The Li-ion transference number of YNa-CPE was 0.84. An excellent ionic conductivity of
1.6610-2 S cm-1 was achieved at 60 C. CPE with 5 wt% SSZ-13 provided an outstanding s

ABSTRACT

Carbon nanotube (CNT) yarns have emerged as a promising candidate for flexible and fabric-
type wearable thermoelectric generators. We have developed CNT yarns fabricated by a low-
cost, fast, and environment-friendly CNT dispersion method using glycerol as a dispersant and
polyoxyethylene(50) stearyl ether as a surfactant [1]. A high power factor of 242 μW m -1 K-2 was
obtained, which is ca. three times higher than that of the previous dispersion method using ionic
liquid [2]. The significant contribution is the two-fold increase in electrical conductivity, which
originates from the higher degree of disentanglement in dispersion and better CNT alignment in
the yarn. Another contribution is the suppression of the increase of thermal conductivity as a
possible side effect of the CNT alignment, which is concluded to be due to the surfactant
adsorbed on CNT bundles. As a result, the ZT value was successfully improved by ca. a factor of
three.

ABSTRACT

Designing novel advanced materials hinges on their intended use. High-purity materials are
essential for certain applications to reveal unique properties. However, for energy harvesting and
thermoelectricity, composite materials are often preferred for their flexible physical parameters.
Bergman and Fel (1991) predicted the possibility of overcoming the conventional limitations of
thermoelectric parameters by employing a composite medium [1]. Riss et al. (2024) suggested
that the best composite thermoelectric materials should combine highly conductive metal and
high-performance thermoelectric-based materials [2]. This work reports a novel composite
W18O49/ZnO with a remarkably large power factor of 3.8 mK −2 m−1 , 19 times larger than that of
pristine ZnO ceramic, and among the best in ZnO-related compounds (Fig.1). Combining the
unique properties of W18O49, ZnO, and interface effects, this study reveals that composites
consisting of highly conductive oxides and high thermopower mediums are effective strategies
for enhancing thermoelectric performance. This suggests promising practical applications in
high-temperature regimes and industrial sectors for thermoelectric oxides.

ABSTRACT

MXenes have attracted large research interest since their discovery in 2011 [1]. Among their
potential applications, several theoretical publications have predicted high thermoelectric
performance for semiconducting MXenes [2]. Indeed, high ZT values were calculated and
proposed for Cr2TiC2(OH)2 for instance [3]. Even if these theoretical studies might overestimate
ZT, such results encourage experimentalists to look at these materials for their potential
thermoelectric properties [4]. This presentation aims to display the first results of the synthesis
and film deposition of the Cr2TiC2Tx MXenes. The synthesis was realized by the selective
etching of the parent Cr2TiAlC2 MAX phase. The etching is classically realized with
hydrofluoric acid (HF) which is very harmful. Therefore, a new etching method using hydroxide
molten salts has been developed to avoid HF and get fully hydroxide-terminated Cr2TiC2(OH)2
MXenes. These nanosheets were then transferred onto substrates by the drop casting technique to
obtain dense and uniform films [5]. In parallel, the parent Cr2TiAlC2 MAX phase has been
synthesized by reactive spark plasma sintering (SPS), for the first time, allowing the possibility
to probe the transport properties dependence in temperature of this highly conductive phase as
comparison.

ABSTRACT

Lithium-sulfur (Li-S) batteries are regarded as one of the most promising candidates for the next-
generation energy storage system due to impressively high theoretical specific capacity and
energy density [1]. A typical Li–S battery operates on reversible redox reactions between Li+ ion
and sulfur/polysulfides at the cathode. However, sluggish reaction kinetics and polysulfide
shuttle effects at the cathode and lithium dendrite formation at the anode remain as knotty issues
for the commercialization of Li-S batteries [2]. In this work, via a facile one-pot synthesis using
carbothermic reduction, we prepared a porous and flexible carbon textile uniformly decorated
with VC/V2O3-x hybrid nanoparticles, which was used as a robust and flexible host for both
sulfur cathode and Li metal anode. We observed that the synergic effect of the defective V 2O3-x
and the conductive VC strongly enhances the adsorption and electrocatalytic conversion of
lithium polysulfides in the cathode, thus greatly suppressing shuttle effects and promoting redox
kinetics. It was found that the well-distributed VC/V2O3-x nanoparticles VC/V2O3-x active sites
could reduce the nucleation barrier and guide Li deposition, leading to a dendrite-free lithium
metal anode. Benefitting from the synergistic advantages, the full battery delivered superb rate
performance (882 mAh g-1 at 5 C) and an ultralow decay rate of 0.02% per cycle during 1000
cycles at 1 C. Importantly, with a large sulfur loading of 7.0 mg cm-2, a high areal capacity of
6.29 mAh cm-2 at 0.2 C was achieved. This design could offer an effective remedy to
simultaneously resolve obstacles regarding the shuttle effect and the Li dendrite formation to
realize high-performance flexible Li-S full batteries [3].

ABSTRACT

HORIBA provides unique analysis and measurement technologies and solutions for optimizing
the operation of alternative energy carriers that are hydrogen (H 2), ammonia (NH3) battery and
CCUS by combining "global network" x "measurement technology" x "engineering". In order to
achieve carbon neutrality by 2050, the use of new energy sources such as hydrogen and
ammonia, so-called alternative energies, in place of fossil fuels is being promoted on a global
scale. However, the efficient use of alternative energies poses various challenges for related
industries. We introduce a wide range of analysis and measurement solutions and engineering to
meet those technical challenges in the industrial fields such as Fuel Cell, Hydrogen Station,
Water Electrolysis (Figure 1). Not only to develop and provide analytical and measuring
instruments, but also responding to various needs with combined our skills of engineering and
consulting based on analysis, testing, and evaluation experiences, are expanded deliverables in
our portfolio.

ABSTRACT

Semiconductor heterojunction via surface/ interface engineering seems a prominent approach for
impediment of imperfections to enhance the charge carrier dynamics and thereby procure a
boosted photoelectrochemical (PEC) performance. In the present study, we report a 2D
BiVO4/BiOCl bulk heterojunction photoanode consisted of vertical array of nanosheets (NSs) as
oxygen evolution cocatalyst to improve the PEC performance. The fabrication by simple drop-
casting method especially via a timely controlled precursor solution on conductive substrate was
accomplished. Interestingly, the fraction of BiVO 4 and BiOCl could be controlled by the
chemical reactions in which facilitate the formation of BiVO 4 and BiOCl. Our study shows a
simple way to control the chemical phenomena through mixing time of precursors. The
BiVO4/BiOCl heterojunction photoanode by precursor mixing control shows a maximum
photocurrent of which is nearly 7 times higher than that of pure BiVO 4 photoanode due to the
improved photoabsorption by NSs and photogenerated charge carrier properties owing to the
staggered heterojunction manifested by the optical and electrical measurements. Here, we
demonstrated a facile, one-step, time-dependent synthesis of binary blend of BiVO4/ BiOCl and
its promoted water oxidation kinetics.

ABSTRACT

The global need to address both carbon emission and energy scarcity issues has driven the search
for innovative electrocatalysts capable of efficiently converting CO 2 into valuable fuels and
chemicals. Gas-phase cluster-based electrocatalysts represent a novel class of materials with the
potential for high activity and selectivity in CO2 reduction reactions [1,2]. In this study, Pd
clusters are made in a laser ablation gas aggregation source and deposited, using cluster beam
deposition (CBD) [3], on mesoporous oxygen-rich copper inverse opals (mCuxO) synthesized via
a colloid templating method. It is found that faradaic yields of ethylene and ethanol can be
systematically adjusted by varying the mass loadings of 2 nm Pd clusters from 1 to 7 atomic
monolayer equivalents (MLs). mCuxO modified with 1 ML of Pd showed the best selectivity for
these C2 compounds at a current density of 100 mA cm −2, achieving FEs of 26% for ethylene and
10% for ethanol, which are 6 times higher than the corresponding values of bare mCuxO. Ex-situ
X-ray absorption fine structure spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, and in-situ Raman spectroscopy
revealed that the mCuxO films reduce rapidly and contain metallic Cu0 particles during the CO2
reduction, which reoxidize right after the termination of the reactions. The enhancement in C 2
yield can be rationalized by the synergetic effects of Pd and Cu at the surface, where uniform
accommodation of the metallic Pd clusters provides a favorable surface for the initial CO 2
adsorption. It induces continuous restructuring of the Cu electrode morphology, refreshing the
electrode surface and thereby maintaining the electrochemical CO2 reduction activity [4]. At the
same time, the mesoporous oxygen-rich Cu component facilitates the reduction of CO 2 to CO
and the subsequent hydrogenation of CO to C2 products. As CBD is a versatile technique that
allows the deposition of virtually any type of well-defined clusters on a large variety of support,
this work provides an attractive avenue to achieve stable selective multicarbon products via
rational electrode design.

ABSTRACT

The development of cost-effective and highly active electrocatalysts for the anodic oxygen
evolution reaction (OER) of water splitting is of great significance for the green hydrogen
economy [1]. One of the most promising approaches to improve intrinsic catalytic activity for
further enhanced performance of the OER is to tune the electronic structure via heteroatom
incorporation [2]. In this work, we have developed an advanced electrocatalyst for the OER
based on P-doped NiMnO3 nanosheets (NSs) supported on three-dimensional carbon cloth
(denoted as P-NiMnO3 NSs/3DCC). The P-NiMnO3 NSs/3DCC synergistically combined the
favorable thermodynamics due to the regulation of electronic structure with large numbers of
accessible catalytic active sites via nanostructuring.3 Consequently, the catalyst showed excellent
catalytic activity for alkaline OER, delivering a current density of 100 mA cm -2 at an
overpotential of 713.5 mV, which was lower than those of benchmark RuO 2 catalyst and others
in the literature. In addition, after continuous catalysis under the OER conditions for 30 hours,
the current density retention of the P-NiMnO3 NSs/3DCC was found to be very high, up to 92.5
%, proving its extraordinary electrochemical stability. Our proposed heteroatom-doping strategy
provides inspiration to enhance the catalytic activity of nanostructured materials based on Earth-
abundant transition metals for energy conversion and storage applications.

ABSTRACT

In this study, a simple casting and solvent evaporation method to fabricate cellulose-based
membranes with properties that enhance conductivity (Figure 1). Crosslinkers are also used to
strengthen the structure and maintain stability in high humidity and acidity environment, aligning
with the requirements of fuel cell applications. Through this work, the electrochemical
characteristics of prepared membranes are evaluated to utilize cellulose and its derivatives
toward energy-related applications. The modified cellulose membranes exhibit high conductivity
of 2.22 mS/cm at room temperature and the temperature-relation activation energy is about 11
kJ/mol. Besides, the thermal and mechanical stability of membranes are also improved by the
introduction of crosslinker. The outcomes confirm the great potential of sustainable materials
based on cellulose, the most abundant natural polymer, not only in the field of fuel cell, but also
other electrochemical and energy applications.

ABSTRACT

Environmental pollution caused by waste is emerging as a global issue directly linked to human
survival. Beyond plastic waste, there are growing concerns about electronic waste due to the
excessive use and rapid replacement of electronic devices. In particular, the use of futuristic
wearable or patch-type electronics is expected to accelerate this trend. Typically, these adhesive
electronic devices consist of multi-layered composite structures made of flexible materials,
making the separation and recycling of materials difficult. Additionally, many toxic substances
are used to enhance device performance. Recently proposed transient electronics, which use
biocompatible and biodegradable materials that decompose easily in the natural environment, are
expected to contribute to solving the electronic waste problem. In this presentation, I will
introduce research trends in transient electronics, ranging from biodegradable materials and
devices used in implantable medical devices to various wearable devices that can be disposable
and patch-type.

ABSTRACT

Solar energy is increasingly recognized as a promising alternative energy source due to its
abundance, cost-effectiveness, and minimal environmental impact. Its versatility lends itself to
various applications, including electricity generation and heat production. One traditional
application is solar drying for agricultural products, where significant efforts have been devoted
to developing cost-effective and efficient solar dryers for rural areas. In this study, we focus on
the drying of red chilli, a staple in Vietnamese cuisine and an increasingly important agricultural
export. Despite the abundance of chilli during peak harvest periods, farmers often struggle due to
low market prices. While traditional open sun drying is common due to its simplicity and low
cost, it often results in low product quality and is highly dependent on weather conditions. To
address these challenges, we present a low-cost and user-friendly solar greenhouse dryer model
equipped with black materials specifically designed for red chilli drying. Our experiments
demonstrate that incorporating black materials significantly reduces drying time by
approximately 30% to 56% compared to open sun drying, particularly during peak harvest
periods. Moreover, our findings emphasize that the humidity within the greenhouse consistently
stays lower than the ambient air. This is critical as it prevents moisture reabsorption by the chilli,
thereby extending the drying process.

ABSTRACT

Supercapacitor provides great potential for good energy storage devices application, compared
with other energy storage such as rechargeable batteries, fuel cell, dielectric capacitors and so on.
Freestanding and flexible electrodes are vital for the development of flexible and wearable
devices that store energy. But the significant trade-off between mechanical flexibility and
electrode electrochemical performance limits the fabrication of efficient energy storage systems.
In this research, we report the synthesis of a 2D material Ti3C2Tx and Co NPs on carbon cloth
(CC) substrate [1-3]. Co NPs was synthesized by microplasma reactors which eliminate harmful
reducing agents and are efficient and cost-effective. And the Ti3C2Tx/Co3O4 were synthesized by
hydrothermal method for supercapacitor. These materials were characterized by scanning
electron microscopy (SEM) Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy and X-Ray Diffraction for
morphology and phases analysis. Besides these Transmission electron microscopies (TEM) and
X-ray Photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) were also done. For electrochemical analysis these
materials were applied on the 2.25 cm 2 carbon cloth as active material (working electrode) by
various electrochemical techniques in 1 M H2SO4 electrolyte. The Ti3C2Tx/Co3O4 electrode had a
maximum gravimetric capacity of 52 mAhg -1, specific capacitance of 580 F g-1 and 120 F g-1 at
the current density of 1 A g-1.

endowing it with dielectric and magnetic properties. The electrical properties and magnetic flux
density of the pristine PMMA and the NdFeB-PMMA composites-based TENGs were studied
and compared. The NdFeB-PMMA composites-based TENG exhibited a stable output power of
15 μA (short-circuit current) and 187 V (open-circuit voltage) under a contact frequency of 3Hz,
which is an enhancement of 2.7 times compared to the pristine PMMA-based TENG. This
demonstrates the potential application of the improved TENG in self-powered systems. This
work establishes the coupling mechanism between magnetization flow and the displacement
current of TENG, showing great application potential in the field of self-powered electronic
devices worn on the human body.

ABSTRACT

Ferric oxide (Fe2O3) is a highly efficient adsorbent that effectively removes H 2S impurities,
known for their immensely toxic, rotten egg smell and corrosive properties and commonly
present in biogas. We fabricated iron (III) oxide nanorods from inexpensive precursors by using a
low-cost and easy-to-perform hydrothermal method. The fabricated nanomaterials exhibited high
levels of porosity and specific surface area. The nanostructures have been characterized by X-ray
Diffraction (XRD), Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FE-SEM), Energy-dispersive
X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), and ultraviolet-visible (UV-Vis) spectroscopy. The Fe2O3
nanomaterials were tested for their H2S capture efficiency using a dynamic protocol and the
influence of factors, such as temperature and humidity, was investigated. This nanomaterial may
be a promising and sustainable direction in improving H 2S capture and prolong the longevity of
biogas filters.

ABSTRACT

This work reports solventless low melting alkali liquefied salts as promising electrolytes for
lithium metal batteries (LMBs) [1]. Ternary eutectic mixtures of lithium, potassium, and cesium
bis(fluorosulfonyl)amide salts were prepared, exhibiting low melting points down to 45°C. The
ternary LiKCsFSA electrolyte showed a high ionic conductivity, a wide electrochemical window,
and a high Li+ transference number. When paired with NMC811 cathodes, Li||NMC811 full cells
using the ternary electrolyte achieved 89% capacity retention after 100 cycles, highlighting the
electrolyte compatibility with cathode materials. The study demonstrates the potential of solvent-
free molten salt electrolytes for enabling high performance LMBs.

ABSTRACT

Metal organic frameworks (MOFs) are attractive materials to accomodate multifunctional

catalysts for the electrocatalytic reduction of CO 2 to hydrocarbons. Here we report the synthesis
of Cu and Zn modified Al-fumarate (Al-fum) MOFs, in which Zn promotes the selective
reduction of CO2 to CO and Cu promotes CO reduction to multi-carbon oxygenates and
hydrocarbons in an electrocatalytic cascade. First, Cu and Zn nanoparticles (Cu-Zn NPs) were
impregnated inside the Al-fum MOF by double solvent method; then, the electrode for CO2
electroreduction was prepared by depositing this Cu-Zn@Al-fum on a hydrophobic gas diffusion
electrode. Al-fum MOF plays a key role in preventing aggregation of Cu and Zn during the
electrode operation. By adjusting the amount of Cu and Zn incorporated into Al-fum MOF, the
highest Faradaic efficiency (FE) of 62% was achieved at -1.0 V vs RHE for the total conversion
of CO2 into various products, including CO and other multi-electron reduction ones such as CH4,
C2H4 and C2H5OH. Notably, multi-electron reduction products, namely CH4, C2H4 and C2H5OH
could be obtained with an FE of 28%, which is encouraging for CO 2 electroreduction in a neutral
pH condition.

Keywords: CO2 reduction, electrocatalysis, copper, zinc, Al-fumarate MOF.

ABSTRACT

CO2 conversion into value chemical products has become a hot topic over the past decades. In
that context, electrochemical reduction of CO2 into hydrocarbon is an attractive approach due to
its application in bulk chemicals manufacturing. The unique property of Cu-based materials for
conversion CO2 into multicarbon products via C-C coupling reaction have been extensively
studied. In this work, we developed a simple procedure for synthesis of novel and high surface
area Cu nanowire grown on Cu foam (Figure 1). This procedure includes the first calcination
step of oxidizing Cu foam and leading the formation of CuO nanowires on the surface. Then the
oxide samples are fully reduced via reduction process under hydrogen flow at high temperature.
The final product consists of vertical Cu nanowires growing on Cu foam. Finally, these materials
were studied for electroreduction of CO 2 in aqueous condition. The obtained results shows the
good catalytic performance with high selectivity of CO 2 reduction versus proton reduction.

ABSTRACT

A series of highly crystalline double metal cyanide (DMC) catalysts have been investigated for
the polymerization of propylene oxide and the fixation of CO2 to propylene oxide [1-3]. Notably,
the use of excess heavy metal salts and harmful organic complexing agents during the
preparation of DMC catalysts, which caused environmental concerns, could be eliminated by
solvothermal treatment in the presence of various polymeric templates (molecular weights of
400−4000 g mol−1). The resultant DMC catalysts were characterized by commonly used
techniques (Fig. 1). The effects of polymeric templates on the structures, activities, and
selectivities of DMC catalysts toward propylene oxide polymerization and CO 2 fixation to
propylene oxide were thoroughly investigated (Fig. 2). The as-prepared DMC catalysts exhibited
remarkably high activities, producing high-quality polyether polyols with controlled molecular
weights (4000−10000 g mol−1), narrow dispersity (1.12−1.19), and very low degree of
unsaturation (0.002−0.009 meq g−1). In addition, poly(ether carbonate) polyols with high yields
(70%), average molecular weights (4000−20000 g mol−1), and high carbonate content (up to
50%) were produced via ring-opening copolymerization of CO2 and propylene oxide.
Furthermore, cyclic propylene carbonates with high yields (up to 80%) were obtained via the
cycloaddition of CO2 to propylene oxide.

ABSTRACT

Proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFC) are one of the potential renewable electricity
sources with wide applicability that are being researched around the world. PEMFC fuel cell
converts directly chemical energy into electricity with different input fuels such as hydrogen,
methanol, natural gas, etc. The advantages of PEMFCs include: low temperatures (<100 oC), high
conversion efficiency, fast start-up, environmentally friendly… PEMFC's applications focus
mainly on three main areas: transportation, power sources for residential areas and power sources
for portable electronic devices. However, one of main technical issues to hinder mass
commercialization of PEMFC fuel cell is the hydrogen storage problem. Among the various
hydrogen storage methods such as compressed gas, liquid hydrogen … metal hydrides (MHs) are
considered as a safe and volume efficient hydrogen storage medium, offering low pressure and
high energy density. Based on reversible reaction of hydrogen with metals, alloys and
intermetallic compounds, MH method is a promising option for small-to medium-scale PEMFC
fuel cell applications. In this study, an integration system between a MH commercial bottle 900L
and a PEMFC fuel cell 500W is designed and assembled. Influence of pressure and temperature
on charge and recharge processes during operation of MH bottle is also evaluated. An operation
of PEMFC fuel cell 500W with hydrogen supply from MH bottle is recorded. Finally, the
efficiency of the integration system is given out.

ABSTRACT

Hydrogen is a promising clean fuel, which can be used in electricity generation without CO 2
emission. Hydrogen fuel is also as an energy carrier that stores or converts energy from other
sources. Therefore, the production of hydrogen to solve the energy demands and environmental
pollution issues is very urgent for our planet. One of the promising methods is hydrogen
production by water splitting using renewable energy and electrolyzers. Usually, an electrolyzer
device consists of an anode and a cathode separated by an electrolyte. During the water
electrolysis process, hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER)
occur at the anode and cathode, respectively. Currently, the high cost and stability of electrodes
used in this method are still challenging. Therefore, the development of catalysts or electrodes
for the HER and OER in the water electrolysis device is very important to reduce the hydrogen
cost. In this study, we aim to develop ruthenium-titanium nitride nanohybrids (named as Ru-TiN)
as highly efficient HER electrocatalysts with low cost and high stability. The morphology,
crystalline structure, and electronic structure of Ru-TiN materials were investigated using TEM,
XRD, and XPS techniques. The electrochemical properties of Ru-TiN catalysts were obtained by
measuring linear sweep voltammetry (LSV), cyclic voltammetry (CV), electrochemical
impedance spectra (EIS), and chronoamperometry/chronopotentiometry (CA/CP) using 3
electrode cell connected to a potentiostat. As a result, the Ru-TiN catalyst shows that Ru
nanoparticles with particle sizes from 2-4 nm are uniformly dispersed on the surface of TiN
nanoparticles. In addition, with low Ru loading, Ru-TiN exhibits a high HER activity as well as
high stability during the HER operation.

ABSTRACT

Addressing environmental pollution and the energy crisis stemming from the overreliance on
fossil fuels is imperative. Transitioning to alternative energy sources, such as hydrogen (H 2),
emerges as a pressing solution. Green hydrogen, generated through solar electrolysis facilitated
by photocatalytic materials, holds significant promise. Photoelectrochemical technology, which
combines light absorption by semiconductor materials with oxidation and dehydration processes
at electrodes, offers a pathway to split water into oxygen and hydrogen. In this study, we
investigate the water-splitting catalytic capability of the porphyrin@g-C3N4/Ag hybrid material
[1]. In particular, porphyrin@g-C3N4/Ag nanostructures are synthesized via self-assembly,
resulting in fiber structures measuring 30-50 nanometers in diameter and several micrometers in
length. To assess electrode performance, cyclic scanning potential (CV), electrochemical
impedance spectroscopy (EIS), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and linear scanning
voltammetry (LSV) techniques are employed. By scrutinizing the catalytic activity of this hybrid
material, our research aims to contribute to the development of efficient water-splitting catalysts
for green hydrogen production. The findings hold promise for advancing the viability of solar-
driven hydrogen generation as a sustainable energy solution.

ABSTRACT

Utilizing computational tools to predict and optimize materials, alongside hydrogen technology,
plays a pivotal role in the pursuit of clean and sustainable energy sources, garnering considerable
interest among scientists [1-3]. The interaction between nanomaterial systems and hydrogen has
emerged as a compelling study model, offering valuable insights for designing a diverse array of
materials applicable in nanomaterials, catalysis, and energy storage. In this study, density
functional theory calculations are employed to investigate the interaction between H 2 molecules
and small-size transition metal doped noble metal nanoclusters (Au nTi and AgnCr). Our findings
indicate that the cluster structure remains intact during the adsorption of H+, occurring either
molecularly or dissociatively. Computed results reveal that the electronegativity, coordination
numbers, surface atoms of nanoclusters, and their electronic structure govern their hydrogen
adsorption behavior. These results shed light on the optimal adsorption mechanism and hydrogen
positioning on small-size noble metal nanoclusters, providing insights into adsorption kinetics
for future theoretical and experimental studies on hydrogen storage in nanostructured materials.

ABSTRACT

Hydrogen adsorption capability of [Mo 3S13]2– @TM (TM=transition metal) atomic cluster was
investigated using density functional theory calculations. The stable S-TM-S bridging bond
forms the most stable geometric structure. The relative electronegativity, coordination number,
and charge of the TM atom greatly influence on the preferred adsorption sites. Notably, the
hydrogen adsorption activity was remarkably improved. The dissociation of a single hydrogen
molecule on TM[Mo3S13]2– clusters (TM = Sc, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, and Ni) is thermodynamically
and kinetically favorable compared to their bare counterparts. The extent of favorability
monotonically depends on the TM impurity, with a maximum activation barrier energy ranging
from 0.62 to 1.58 eV, lower than that of the bare cluster (1.69 eV). Findings provide insights for
experimental research on hydrogen adsorption using TM-doped molybdenum sulfide
nanoclusters.

ABSTRACT

In this work, the TiO2/BiVO4 heterojunctions were constructed by BiVO4 treated with TiCl4 50
mM for different times and then annealing at 450 oC for 30 minutes. The FE-SEM and XRD
measurements were taken for morphology and structural analysis of the TiO 2/BiVO4
heterojunctions. The results show that after treatment with TiCl 4 solution, TiO2 nanoparticles
formed on the surface of BiVO4 material to form TiO2/BiVO4 heterojunctions. The enhanced
photo-electrochemical properties of the TiO2/BiVO4 heterojunctions were investigated by photo-
electrochemical current measurements under dark and illuminated conditions. We found that the
TiO2/BiVO4 heterojunctions can increase the separation rate of photo-induced charge separation,
improve the utilization of solar light in the visible spectrum, and thus promote enhanced photo-
electrochemical water splitting.

ABSTRACT

The demand for developing new alternative energy sources that are renewable and
environmentally friendly is increasing sharply in many countries. Hydrogen has been considered
as a promising energy for the future. The idea of a hydrogen economy was first mentioned in the
1970s. As concerns about global pollution became more urgent in the 1990s, there was a growing
interest in hydrogen technology research, in which hydrogen fuel cells play an important role.
Fuel cells are electrochemical devices that convert hydrogen and oxygen into electrical energy.
In this study, a catalyst layer in the membrane electrode assembly (MEA) was prepared by using
ultrasonic spraying method with an active area of 100cm 2. Furthermore, the components of the
fuel cell such as bipolar plates…. were also studied and manufactured. Specifically, a PEMFC
fuel cell stacks was fabricated, which consists of 40 single cells and provided a stable power
output of 1000W - 1200W. This fuel cell stack operated at a voltage of 24V, maintained a steady
current intensity of 42-50A and a maximum power density achieved of 720mW/cm 2.

ABSTRACT

Porous Transport Layers are employed at the anode side of the Proton Exchange Membrane
Water Electrolyzer to maintain the gas/water transport as well as the electric charges transfer. As
a result, the Porous Transport Layer is critical in ensuring the efficiency of the electrolyzing
process. Thus, this work aims to investigate the Titanium Porous Transport Layers fabricated by
the Spark Plasma Sintering process. The sintering temperature was varied from 500 to 650 oC to
determine the characteristics of the Titanium porous samples, while the sintering pressure and
holding time were fixed at 10 MPa and 10 min, respectively. The phase structure and
morphology of the samples were investigated by X-ray Diffraction and Scanning Electron
Microscopy analyses. The compressive strength and the corrosion behavior of the porous Ti were
investigated by the compressive test and the electrochemical corrosion test. Experimental results
indicated that no new phase appeared when the samples were sintered at different temperatures.
With an increase in the sintering temperature, the porosity of the samples considerably decreased
while their compressive strength increased. In addition, porous Ti sintered using the Spark
Plasma Sintering method demonstrated good corrosion resistance.

ABSTRACT

Hydrogen is the most efficient energy carrier and can be produced from many different raw
materials such as fossil fuels, water… Among the many hydrogen production methods, the
environmentally friendly method of obtaining high purity hydrogen is water electrolysis. In terms
of sustainability and environmental impact, PEM water electrolysis is considered the most
promising technique due to its efficiency in producing highly pure green hydrogen from
renewable energy sources and only releasing oxygen as a byproduct without any carbon
emissions. However, hydrogen produced from water splitting in the market accounts for not
much mainly due to its high cost. Therefore, research has been done recently in developing cost-
effective components for PEM water electrolysis. In this study, we present recent developments
on mixed metallic oxides based materials applied to PEM water electrolysis. Firstly, high-
performance and low-cost noble electro-catalysts including: IrO2; RuO2; IrxRu(1-x)O2; IrRuMO2
(M = Ti; Sn; Co) have been successfully prepared. These catalyst particles have nano-size (<30
nm) with high activity and durability for OER. In the second, mixed metallic oxides coatings to
prevent corrosion and increase electrolysis efficiency for components of PEM water electrolyzer
were also investigated. The IrRuO2 coatings on a titanium material substrate are developed and
applied as bipolar plates and porous transport layers in PEMWE. These studies are expected to

ABSTRACT

As a safe fuel that cannot cause any environmental problems, hydrogen has attracted the
attention of scientists over the past decade. Among the various technologies, proton exchange
membrane water electrolyzers (PEMWEs) using electricity from renewable energy sources such
as wind power, solar power shows a huge potential for green hydrogen production. However,
important components of PEMWE such as bipolar plates, porous transfer layers (PTL), and
collector plates must withstand aggressive environments due to high temperature, high acidity,
and high potential during PEMWEs operation. To overcome this, these parts are coated with a
protective film that is highly corrosion resistant and high electrical conductivity. In this study, we
developed a graphene-nickel composite coating by electroplating for corrosion protection of
PEMWEs components. The graphene was prepared by high power ultrasonic method. The
influence of graphene content on the composite coatings was also studied. The properties of the
graphene-nickel composite coatings were investigated and evaluated by means of SEM, tensile
strength, and corrosion resistance in acidic environments. The achieved results show the great
application potential of graphene-nickel composite in corrosion protection of PEMWEs
components.

ABSTRACT

In this study, graphene was directly hybridized with MnO 2 through a modified static oxidation
method of flake graphite. Raman spectroscopy results showed the presence of characteristic
peaks of graphene at 1344 cm-1 and 1591 cm-1, along with two prominent MnO2 peaks at 576 cm-
1
and 638 cm-1. High-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HR-TEM) images revealed
that MnO2 particles were intercalated between the graphene layers. The lattice fringes with an
interlayer spacing of 0.49 nm correspond to the (110) plane of MnO 2, while the fringes with an
interlayer spacing of 0.34 nm are attributed to few-layer graphene. The covalent bonding
between graphene and MnO2 facilitates the formation of vacancies/defects, leading to a
disordered phase of MnO2. This contributes to easier access for Zn2+ to abundant active sites,
making the hybridization of MnO2 with graphene suitable for use as a cathode in zinc-ion
batteries

ABSTRACT

Solid polymer electrolytes (SPEs) have gained significant attention to replace liquid electrolyte
in the conventional Li-metal batteries (LMBs) for the safety issues. However, SPEs with
poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) as the main polymer often encounter low ionic conductivity at room
temperature and weak mechanical properties, which obviously hinder the practical application of
SPEs batteries. Therefore, to address these challenges, a proposed strategy is employing the
composite polymer electrolyte based on blended PEO and polyninylidene fluoride (PVdF)
polymer matrix combined with inorganic filler like silica (SiO 2) nanoparticles and lithium
bis(trifluoromethane sulfonyl)imide (LiTFSI) salt served as plasticizer and ionic conducting
agent. PVdF polymer with high melting temperature and good mechanical strength helps
improve the thermal stability and relative mechanical properties of the SPE membrane. The
inclusion of nano-sized SiO2 necessarily facilitate the homogenous diffusion flux of lithium-ion
and inhibiting lithium dendrites. This study investigates the influence of PVDF concentration on
the composite polymer at a fixed 5% wt. of SiO 2 and 15% wt. LiTFSI. The thickness of SPEs
films is controlled in range of 50 – 120 µm. The surface and cross-sectional morphology of the
GPE membranes revealed that the addition of PVdF enhanced the conection and reduced the
occurrence of defects on the membrane surface. In comparing to PEO based SPEs. The
composite polymer electrolyte achieved an impressive ionic conductivity of 2.32 × 10−4 S.cm-1
(at 60 oC) and higher on-set oxidation voltage ~ 3.9 V vs Li+/Li.
Keywords: Polymer gel electrolytes, Li-ion batteries, PEO/PVdF/SiO2/LiTFSI, PVdF additive.

ABSTRACT

All-solid-state batteries are attracting attention as next-generation batteries due to their higher
stability and energy density compared to existing lithium-ion batteries. Among the solid
electrolytes used in solid-state batteries, solid polymer electrolytes (SPE) have been widely
studied because they have excellent flexibility and are easy to mechanically process. However,
these batteries are difficult to use due to their low ionic conductivity (<10 −4 S cm−1) and poor
thermal and electrochemical stability. Various studies have been conducted to improve low
conductivity and electrical and thermal stability. Composite solid electrolytes (CSE) show
promise as materials that can enhance the ionic conductivity and thermal and electrochemical
stability of solid polymer electrolytes. This study examines the ionic conductivity, lithium
migration characteristics, and electrochemical stability of a "polymer-in-ceramic"-structured
CSE sheet incorporating polyethylene glycol (PEG) polymer. The PEG10 CSE demonstrates
twice the ionic conductivity of PEG0 CSE at 50 °C and maintains a high oxidation potential
stability of 5.2 V. Moreover, PEG10 CSE exhibits excellent interfacial compatibility with lithium
metal. Evaluations of the LiFePO4/PEG10 CSE/Li cell reveal that PEG10 CSE offers high
discharge capacity, C-rate performance, and cycle stability at 45 °C. Figure 1 shows a schematic
diagram of the lithium ion pathway by PEG introduction [1].

ABSTRACT

To enhance the performance of solid-state lithium batteries (SSLB), succinonitrile (SCN) is

integrated into a composite solid electrolyte (CSE) composed of Al-doped LLZO
(Li6.4Al0.2La3Zr2O12), poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO), and lithium salts, imparting flexibility to the
CSE. Acting as a solid-state plasticizer, SCN improves ion conduction and interfacial
compatibility between components. The resulting flexible CSE sheet achieves an ionic
conductivity of 2.5 × 10−4 S cm−1 at 40 °C and exhibits a b electrochemical stability window of
~5.2 V vs. Li/Li+. The incorporation of solid SCN introduces synergistic properties such as an
enhanced ion conduction pathway and suppression of PEO oxidation. Utilizing the CSE with 7
wt% SCN as both the cathode and solid electrolyte layer in SSLBs, a discharge capacity of
approximately 130 mAh g−1 at 45 °C and 0.1C is achieved, alongside a capacity retention rate of
90% and a coulombic efficiency of 99% over 100 cycles. Additionally, a three-stack bipolar cell
is fabricated to assess the mechanical robustness of the flexible CSE sheet, demonstrating stable
cycling performance over 50 cycles without short-circuiting or leakage current. Figure 1 shows
that faster lithium ion transport is possible in CSE incorporating SCN through 7Li NMR analysis
[1].

ABSTRACT

In this study, we developed advanced photothermal materials from aerogels derived from
biomass by integrating hydrogel bonds between cellulose in cotton and hydroxyl groups in PVA,
combined with iron salt complexes and free radicals from the leaves of syzygium nervosum. The
iron salt complexes included significantly enhanced the material's light absorption capacity.
Detailed characterization using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), ultraviolet-near infrared
absorption spectroscopy (UV-Vis-NIR), and Fourier transform infrared absorption spectroscopy
(FTIR) revealed that the synthesized cellulose aerogel is hydrophilic and possesses a 3D porous
structure with pore sizes ranging from 20 μm to 100 μm. This structure functions as a natural
capillary system and effectively reduces thermal conductivity. The material demonstrated
exceptional light absorption, achieving up to 94% efficiency in the infrared and visible regions of
the solar spectrum. The fabricated aerogel exhibited a water evaporation rate of 3.3 kg·m⁻²·h⁻¹
for a sample thickness of 2 cm, which is 11 times faster than seawater without photothermal
material. The structure of synthesized aerogel also proved to be stable, with self-cleaning
capabilities and good salt tolerance, maintaining its performance in seawater for at least 35 days.
These findings highlight the potential of cellulose aerogels for efficient photothermal
applications in solar energy conversion and desalination processes.

ABSTRACT

Solar cells utilizing silicon nanowires have emerged as promising candidates for practical
applications, offering the prospect of cost-effectiveness and heightened efficiency. Nonetheless,
despite over two decades of development, challenges persist, notably in the realms of complex
fabrication processes, leading to elevated costs, and connectivity issues, resulting in diminished
efficiency. In this study, we propose a pioneering 3D solar cell architecture employing metal
nickel silicide nanowires (NiSixNWs) in conjunction with p-i-n core-shell nanowires, boasting a
streamlined fabrication process. Our devised structure attains an impressive efficiency of
approximately 11.04%, accompanied by a photocurrent density of roughly 22.08 mA/cm².
Furthermore, the open-circuit voltage (Voc) is obtained at approximately 0.70 V, with a fill factor
(FF) of around 72.03%. These findings underscore the considerable potential of our approach in
realizing high-efficiency solar cells at a reduced cost, thereby fostering optimism for future
advancements in the field.

ABSTRACT

Most of previous studies on thermoelectric materials have been focused on alloys and
intermetallics. However, recent studies showed that oxides materials may also play an important
role in this regard. LaCoO3, which has a perovskite structure, is one of the oxides displaying such
a potential. However, its band gap is about 1.39 eV, which is too large to give a high enough
carries concentration for good electrical conductivity. On the other hand, LaCoO 3 only keeps a
large Seeback coefficient at room temperature, which decreases to an unacceptable value at high
temperature. It was reported that doping some cations either at La or Co sites improved the
themoeletric properties of LaCoO3. Therefore, we attempted to improve the power factor of
LaCoO3 by doping Bi and Ni at La and Co sites, respectively. All polycrystalline samples of La 1-
xBixCoO3 and LaCo1-xNixO3 (x = 0~0.05) were synthesized by the sol-gel process. The phase
purity of the prepared samples was confirmed by X-ray diffraction (XRD). The results showed
that the lattice constants of both a and c increased as the Bi concentration increased because of
the larger ionic radii of Bi3+ (1.17 Å) than La3+ (1.032 Å). However, for the Co doped samples,
the lattice constants increased as the doping level increased until x=0.04 and then dropped.
Scanning electron microscopy showed that undoped LaCoO3 had a fairly uniform distribution of
particle sizes around 1µm. The Bi doping did not change the particle size notably, while the
particle sizes of Ni doped samples decreased greatly to about 0.2 µm. X-ray photoelectron
spectroscopy (XPS) was carried out to check the oxidation states in La 1-xBixCoO3 and LaCo1-
4+
xNixO3. The results showed that some Co coexisted with Co3+ in undoped LaCoO3. In Bi-doped
LaCoO3, small amount of Bi was found in addition to the majority of Bi 3+ and yet the ratio of
4+

Co4+/Co3+ was increased by the Bi doping. In the Ni-doped LaCoO3, Ni2+ and Ni3+ coexisted and
the samples contained more Co4+ than the Bi doped LaCoO3. Based on XPS results, the charge
compensation mechanisms were proved for La1-xBixCoO3 and LaCo1-xNixO3, which may shed
some light on the origins of charge carriers. Thermoelectric measurements showed that all the
sample had positive Seebeck coefficients, indicating that the charge carriers were p-type. The
magnitude of Seeback coefficient was decreased by either the Bi or Ni doping. However, the
decrement was only large around room temperature and as the temperature increased, it became
increasingly smaller. On the other hand, the electrical conductivities were increased by a factor
of 5 or 100 in the Bi and Ni doped samples (x=0.05), respectively, owing to the increased charge
carriers. Overall, the power fators were improved by both the Bi and Ni doing, which had the
maximal values of 1.5 and 2.9 µV/cmK2 (measured at 550K) for the Bi (x=0.04) and Ni (x=0.05)
doped LaCoO3, respectively.

ABSTRACT

In recent years, triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs) have offered a promising solution to

energy harvesting and self-powered sensing. The most advantages of TENGs are they can be
fabricated from numerous green and cost-effective materials, encompassing natural resources,
household waste, and recyclable materials. Among them, natural film materials recently gained
increasing interest due to their sustainability, biodegradability, biocompatibility, and low cost.
This paper illustrates an eco-friendly triboelectric nanogenerator (E-TENG) fabricated from
Bamboo leaf and charcoal powder. The Bamboo leaf sheet acts as the positive triboelectric layer,
while the charcoal powder plays a role as the electrodes in the contact-separate TENG mode. The
proposed E-TENG device exhibits promising electrical characteristics, with an open-circuit
voltage that reaches approximately 40 V and a short-circuit current of 6.5 µA under mechanical
stimulation at 10 Hz frequency. This device can power low-power electronic equipment or
charge commercial capacitors.

ABSTRACT

Silicon-based anodes have garnered attention for lithium-ion batteries due to their high energy
density potential. However, the substantial volume changes experienced by silicon particles
during lithiation and delithiation processes often result in the detrimental cracking and fracturing
of the solid electrolyte interphase. In this study, we present a facile and scalable approach for
synthesizing silicone-graphite composites using ball milling. Si nanopowders (NPs) in this work
was prepared by thermal plasma method from micrometer size Si flakes. Fabricated Si NPs were
incorporated into the spherical graphite matrix to mitigate the volume expansion effects. The ball
milling process as a cost-effective and environmentally conscientious avenue to achieve a
uniform dispersion of nano Si within the graphite matrix, thereby fostering enhanced interfacial
adhesion and structural homogeneity. Obtained mixture are coated as shown in Figure 1. The
nano Si-graphite material has shown significant improvements in electrical conductivity and
mechanical properties compared to pristine silicon. This research may help to significantly
improve the development of high-performance lithium-ion batteries while addressing challenges
related to silicon-based anode materials.

ABSTRACT

The presence of Sb ion in tin oxide materials (ATO) significantly impacts their doping behavior
and electro-optical properties. Despite extensive research on precursor selection for ATO
nanomaterial synthesis, the semiconductor characteristics remain unclear. ATO (Antimony-
doped Tin Oxide) was synthesized via hydrothermal method using various precursors. Material
characterization via SEM, TEM, and XRD confirmed Sb incorporation into the SnO2 lattice,
replacing Sn ions. ATO particles exhibited spherical morphology with sizes of 7-12 nm, forming
interconnected nanowire chains. Notably, ATO nanoparticles showed favorable specific
capacitance (Cs) and energy density (E) for supercapacitor applications. The hydrothermal
synthesis of ATO presents a promising avenue for industrial-scale production due to its
simplicity and potential.

ABSTRACT

A thermochromic coating layer on greenhouse roofing would allow for passive transmission
control of solar radiation. Vanadium dioxide (VO2) is a thermochromic material that has attracted
great attention due to its unique property of reversible semiconductor-to-metal phase transition at
a temperature of 68℃ (Tc). It is transparent for infrared light in the monoclinic phase below T c
and translucent in the tetragonal rutile phase above T c [1]. Introducing dopants like tungsten (W)
into the VO2 lattice has been shown to effectively lower T c, making VO2-based materials
potential candidates for smart switchable window coatings to create energy-efficient buildings
[2]. We aim to develop thin films of W-doped VO2 nanoparticles (NPs) on glass that can
effectively modulate light transmission across a b spectral range from the infrared to the visible.
The objective is to control the temperature inside a greenhouse using W-VO2 glazing within a
range of approximately 30°C to 40°C, which is suitable for drying agricultural products such as
rice and coffee. In this work, VO2 NPs and W-doped VO2 NPs films on glass were fabricated by
dispersing the VO2 NPs and W-VO2 NPs into a transparent polymer matrix and their
thermochromic performance was investigated. A series of in-situ experiments were carried out to
monitor the structure, conductivity, and transmission evolution during the phase transition
process. Preliminary results indicate that the fabricated films exhibit good thermochromic
behavior in the infrared range.

ABSTRACT

Lithium metal is often regarded as the ultimate anode for lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) due to its
superior specific capacity (3,860 mAh g -1) and density (0.534 g cm-3). However, the real-world
application of Li-metal electrodes is presently hindered by unregulated Li-plating and stripping,
leading to unwanted dendritic growth and significant volume change during cycles. To overcome
these challenges, we suggest a three-dimensional (3D) Li-metal anode, which incorporates 3D Ni
foam as a current collector through a molten Li impregnation process. Our theoretical
simulations and experimental results show that this 3D Li-metal electrode establishes an
extensive contact area between the active Li metal and the current collector. This is
advantageous in enhancing the reversibility by lowering the overpotential for Li-plating and
stripping and suppressing the dendritic growth of Li during charge/discharge cycles. Moreover,
the 3D Ni foam framework effectively mitigates dimensional change of the Li-metal electrode.
For practical applications, we evaluate the viability of the 3D Li-metal electrode in a full-cell in
comparison to a traditional 2D Li-metal electrode. We anticipate that our findings will contribute
to the development of advanced Li-metal batteries.

ABSTRACT

Nickel sulfides are known for their excellent electrical conductivity, thermochemical stability,
and their catalytic performances. In this study, high-energy ball milling has been applied as a
facile synthesis for nickel sulfides. By supplying enough mechanical energy and the exothermic
properties of the elemental nickel and sulfur, the mechanically induced self-propagating reaction
(MSR), a combustion-like process occurs within couple of seconds yielding nickel sulfides [1].
X-ray diffraction (XRD) confirmed the formation of NiS as the major phase with α-Ni7S6 as the
minor phase in when using a Ni:S ratio 1:1. When milling Ni:S 2:1 mixture, a single phase of
hazelwoodite Ni3S2 was formed. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) revealed granular and
agglomerated surfaces with cavities of typical milled materials, and well-distributed sulfur and
nickel. The electrocatalytic performance for hydrogen production was assessed using a rotating
disc electrode (RDE) in alkaline media, revealing that the product obtained when using Ni:S 1:1
ratio exhibited better performance compared to the Ni:S 2:1 ratio.

ABSTRACT

This paper reports on the hydrogen generation from the hydrolysis of NaBH 4 aqueous solutions
using CeOx-NiB/HAP as a catalyst. The CeOx-NiB/HAP catalyst demonstrated exceptional
catalytic activity, achieving a peak hydrogen generation rate (HGR) of 1466 mL.min −1.g−1 at
303K. The improved catalytic performance is attributed to the reduced particle size and the
beneficial effects of the ceria oxide, which enhances the overall efficiency of the reaction.

ABSTRACT

Hydrogen, with its high energy density and environmentally friendly nature, holds great promise
as a future energy. The development of efficient catalysts for the hydrogen evolution reaction
(HER) in water splitting is necessary. In this study, we focused on synthesizing a hybrid material
MoSSe-Graphene (MoSSe-Gr) as a catalyst for HER. The MoSSe-Gr hybrid catalyst was
synthesized through a solvothermal method followed by calcination under an inert atmosphere at
800°C. Morphology and structural analysis of the catalyst was analyzed using SEM, TEM, XRD
and Raman spectroscopy. The MoSSe-Gr hybrid catalyst exhibited remarkable catalytic activity
for HER, showing significantly lower overpotentials of 90mV and 200mV at current densities of
1 and 10 mA cm-2, respectively, comparable to the benchmark Pt/C catalyst. Furthermore, the
MoSSe-Gr catalyst demonstrated long-term electrochemical stability during HER over a 24-hour
period in an acidic medium. Furthermore, the MoSSe-Gr catalyst demonstrated long-term
electrochemical stability during HER over a 24 hour duration in an acidic medium. The MoSSe-
Gr hybrid catalyst shows great potential as an efficient and stable catalyst for HER, promoting
sustainable hydrogen production.

ABSTRACT

Thermal plasma is a method for generating very high temperatures (3000-6000°C) by ionizing
gases through high-power electric current. In this process, precursor materials, upon contact with
the thermal plasma, undergo immediate combustion and vaporization, followed by condensation
leading to the growth of nano-sized particles. This method is direct, chemical-free, eliminates
intermediary steps, and is capable of producing nano particles with small sizes in large scale. In
this study, we successfully synthesized nano carbon using the DC plasma method, employing
three DC plasma jets simultaneously vaporizing raw graphite powder input, which has size of
~20µm. The synthesis process was optimized by investigating the effects of various conditions.
Fabricated nano carbon was then activated in a furnace at 800 oC for 30 minutes under Argon gas
flow. The hydrogen storage capabilities of the fabricated nano powder were then studied.

ABSTRACT

Hydrogen produced from water splitting is a promising technology for green hydrogen
production. The research and development of alternative catalyst materials for the hydrogen
evolution reaction (HER) with high activity, stability, and low cost to replace Pt have received
significant attention. In this study, we introduce transition metal dichalcogenides-graphene
(MoS2-Gr; MoSe2-Gr) hybrid materials as advanced catalysts for HER (Figure 1). These hybrid
materials are synthesized using a hydrothermal method combined with heat treatment in an inert
atmosphere. The MoS2-Gr; MoSe2-Gr catalysts demonstrate remarkable catalytic activity
compared to Pt in both acidic and alkaline media. The superior HER performance of the MoS 2-
Gr; MoSe2-Gr catalysts can be attributed to the incorporation of graphene into the TMDs layers,
resulting in interlayer expansion that enhances the surface area and concentration of HER active
edge sites. Moreover, the increased gaps between the layers of the catalyst might have promoted
the movement of ions and electrons more easily between the layers and the electrolytes, thereby
enhancing its catalytic activity. Additionally, the MoS2-Gr; MoSe2-Gr catalysts exhibited long-
term stability against HER in both acidic and alkaline electrolytes.

ABSTRACT

Nonthermal atmospheric pressure plasma (NAP) and their plasma NO (nitric oxide) water
characteristics operating at atmospheric pressure have been introduced for plasma bioscience,
agricultures and environmentals. The electron temperatures, plasma densities, and rotational gas
temperatures are characterized to be 1.2 ~ 2.1 eV, 3×1014 ~ 5×1015 cm-3, and ~400 K,
respectively, for the dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) plasma sources[1]. Here, the various
applications of these NBP sources to plasma medicine including superbacteria killing and virus
inactivation currently used in vehicle sterilizer, and agricultures would be discussed by RONS
generation mechanism inside the liquid, so called synergistic action of plasma initiated UV
photolysis [1] and molecular-transport diffusion processes. We have investigated synergistical
effect of multi-elctrode cylindrical DBD (ME-cDBD) plasma and its plasma NO water for
treatment of various solid cancers, along with gold and silver nano particles in-vivo, through
enhancement of apoptosis and autophagy [2]. High power microwave (HPM) and ME-cDBD
plasma devices could be also applied to plasma agriculture under air plasma environments for
inactivation of fungi, enhancement of germination and seeding growth rate along with
enhancement of disease resistance and beneficial bacteria [3]. Demonstration project for plasma
agriculture would be also discussed for transfer to field site from laboratory scale. For this
project the ME-cDBD plasma source has been used for the mass production of NO and NO
water, from which some of other ROS could be controlled and adjusted for the respective
applications under low power consumption less than 130 W. Also odor removal issues from
poultry, piggery, and cattle-shed farms would be emerging in many places for applications of
nonthermal atmospheric pressure plasma to field sites in Korea. Also special progress report for
international standard of nonthermal plasma medical equipment (ME) will be introduced to all
plasma experts who are involved in plasma biosciences , medicine, and environmentls, since
2019 upto now. The NWIP (New work item proposal or NP) and working group 41 (WG41) has
been established on December, 2021 for draft preparation of IEC60601-2-91: "Particular
requirements for the basic safety and essential performance of non-thermal plasma wound
treatment equipment". Now we are facing to a stage of the 2nd CDV (committee draft voting) for
FDIS (final draft of international standard) through the 1st CDV. Soonover we will have a
publication of an international standard, IEC60601-2-91, for human plasma health cares for basic
safety and essential performance of plasma ME.

ABSTRACT

A “Biomembrane” is a highly-organized self-assembly of biomolecules (i.e. lipid, protein etc.)

and a key interface for the survival of biological cell. The “Membranome” can be defined as the
properties of vesicle (or liposome), which arise from the bilayer molecular assembly of
amphiphiles, focusing on “emergent properties” which are not present in the individual
components, and is gradually recognized as an important research methodology to investigate the
potential functions of vesicles (or liposome) and to apply them for the bioprocess design. “Self-
Organizing System”, such as liposome or vesicle, possesses several benefits in the recognition of
(bio)molecules, where it can recognize them with (i) electrostatic, (ii) hydrophobic interaction,
and (iii) stabilization effect of hydrogen bonds at its surface. A key of next chemical engineering
is the use of “Self-Organizing System”, where “enthalpy-driven” nature of chemical process
would be converted to “entropy-driven” one. We call this strategy as “Bio-Inspired Chemical
Engineering”. I would like to introduce the basic and applied aspect of the self-organizing
system: (1) Phase Equilibrium and Physicochemical Properties of Self-Organizing System, (2)
Functions of Self-Organizing System (i.e. Chiral Recognition Function etc.), and (3) Its
Application to the Development of the Chemical Process Devices (i.e. Membrane Module for
Optical Resolution etc.). For their application in pharmaceuticals and cosmetics, it is important to
characterize their physicochemical properties from the scientific viewpoint. Their fascinating
diversity derives from their constituent lipids and their self-assembling properties. The properties
can be evaluated by multiple analyses, including fluorescent spectroscopy of multiple molecular
probes, time-resolved emission spectroscopy (TRES), Raman spectroscopy and its surface
enhanced technique, thermal characterization, cryo-transgenic microscopy (cryo-TEM), and X-
ray diffraction/scattering. As some properties, the properties and structures/formulations of lipid
nanoparticles composed with (1) liposome and vesicle, (2) cationic and anionic surfactants
(cataniosome), (3) disk-like lipid bilayer assembly (bicelle), (4) nanostructures lipid carrier
(NLC) composed of solid and liquid lipids, (5) cubic-phase forming lipids have been
investigated. Journey to disclose self-assembly systems will be introduced from the viewpoint of
“Engineering Scientist”.

ABSTRACT

This talk's goal is to highlight some of the research behind nonthermal gas plasma techniques
that are valuable for decontamination, microbial inactivation, viral sterilization, and other
environmental implications. For a disease-free world, we are concentrating on industrial
solutions to inactivate environmental pollutants such as microbes in soil, water, and air.
Fundamental research on green and environmentally friendly methods for the synthesis of
nanomaterials and their various biomedical applications is being done at our laboratory. In this
area, we demonstrate a novel strategy using plasma-liquid interactions to enhance the green
synthesis of metal nanoparticles. Additionally, facile upscaling of the production of these
metallic nanoparticles is attainable using tricky green strategies. Through systematic adjustments
in synthesis parameters, selection appropriate biomaterial for upscaling process, as well as the
composition and structures of the nanoparticles, optimal conditions can be achieved to produce
highly efficacious anticancer and antimicrobial metallic nanoparticles. These green approaches
represent a cost-effective, environmentally conscious, and sustainable method for the fabrication
of biocompatible hybrid nanoparticles with potential applications as therapeutic agents and
industrial products. Additionally, research on plasma-based environmentally friendly benign
methods may lead to future advancements in the fields of agriculture, bioscience,
nanotechnology, and the environment.

DYSLIPIDEMIA MODELS

ABSTRACT

Dyslipidemia refers to abnormal levels of the plasma lipid profile that are major risk factors for
cardiovascular diseases [1]. Drug development to prevent and treat dyslipidemia, combining the
wisdom of traditional medicine from natural herbs with nanotechnology and modern medicine is
the new direction of many scientific research centers worldwide and in Vietnam [2]. With this
scientific direction, scientists at the Institute of Nano Medicine and Pharmaceutical (INP) have
successfully developed a new generation product from Vietnamese natural medicinal herbs using
nanotechnology called CINABET soft capsules with Nano Berberin and Nano Cinnamomum
zeylanicum as its main components. Here, we aimed to assess the effects of CINABET soft
capsules on experimental endogenous dyslipidemia and exogenous dyslipidemia models. In the
exogenous dyslipidemia model, dyslipidemia was induced in rats by oral administration of a
cholesterol mixture (cholesterol 10%, cholic acid 1%, PTU 0.5%, and peanut oil added to
precisely 1 mL)[3]. Wistar Albino rats (180-220g) were divided into 5 groups with 10 rats per
group: Group 1 (control group); Group 2 (model group); Group 3 (atorvastatin with the dose of
10 mg/kg b.w/day); Group 4 (CINABET at the dose of 0.12 g/kg b.w/day); and Group 5
(CINABET at the dose of 0.36 g/kg b.w/day). The cholesterol mixture b.w per day was given
orally to Group 2 to Group 5 with a volume of 10 mL/kg for four weeks. Rat body weight was
recorded at baseline, after 2 weeks and 4 weeks. On day 15th and day 29th, rats fasted overnight
and the blood was collected to measure serum TC, TG, and HDL-C concentrations. LDL-C
concentration was calculated using the Friedewald formula: LDL-C = TC – (HDL-C) – (TG/2.2)
(mmol/L). In the endogenous dyslipidemia model, poloxamer 407 (P-407) induced dyslipidemia
model was described by Millar et al. [4]. Swiss mice were randomly separated into five groups
with 10 rats per group: Group 1 (control group); Group 2 (model group); Group 3 (atorvastatin at
the dose of 100 mg/kg b.w/day); Group 4 (CINABET at the dose of 0.24 g/kg b.w/day); and
Group 5 (CINABET at the dose of 0.72 g/kg b.w/day. On day 7, mice in group 2 to group 5 were
injected i.p 2% P-407 at the dose of 200 mg/kg b.w. 24h later, blood was collected and analyzed
for serum lipids including TG, TC, and HDL-C. Non-HDL-cholesterol (non-HDL-C) was
estimated: Non-HDL-C=TC-(HDL-C). For the exogenous dyslipidemia model, at all time points,
no significant difference in body weight was found among groups. As compared to group 2
(model group), CINABET at both doses of 0.12 g/kg b.w/day and 0.36 g/kg b.w/day significantly
lowered levels of TC and LDL in rats. No substantial change was observed in HDL-C level
between groups treated CINABET and the model group. In terms of liver transaminase,
CINABET at both doses increased levels of AST and ALT. Meanwhile, for the endogenous
dyslipidemia model, there was a substantial reduction in TC level, TG, and non-HDL-C level in
groups treated with CINABET at both doses of 0.24 g/kg b.w/day and 0.72 g/kg b.w/day as
compared with the model group. No significant difference was observed in HDL-C level between
groups treated CINABET soft capsules and the model group. Our results demonstrated that oral
administration of CINABET soft capsules improved hyperlipidemia through lowering levels of

TC and LDL-C in exogenous dyslipidemic rats and reducing levels of TC, TG, and non-HDL-C
in endogenous dyslipidemic mice. CINABET soft capsules did not change HDL-C level
significantly as compared with the model group. Besides, groups treated with CINABET soft
capsules had elevated serum AST and ALT levels, thus, it is careful for patients with liver
diseases when using this product in clinical.

ABSTRACT

Implantable electronic devices (IEDs) are increasingly used in medical treatment and diagnose
for physiological monitoring. However, encapsulation of IDEs still faces significant challenges
as full prevention of body fluid penetration into the coating remains unsolved. To enable an
extended lifecycle for IEDs, water transport impact on failure mechanism of silicone rubber
coating was systematically investigated in this study. Water absorption and morphology
characterization firstly indicate an increased water diffusion into the free coating due to crack
development. Subsequent electrochemical characterizations further verify a three-step water
penetration behavior in the coating/substrate system, and meanwhile quantify the crack growth
and evolution. By further experimental and finite element studies, it is proved that crack
propagation is responsible for coating failure in IEDs, while a comprehensive failure mechanism
of medical silicone rubber coating in simulated body fluid is also uncovered in a detailed manner
for the first time.Next, we develop a high-performance composite coating for IED encapsulation
by introducing SiO2 nanoparticles into silicone rubber, which synergistically enhances
mechanical properties and improves barrier performance. By fabricating composite coatings with
different nanosilica contents, 3% nanosilica is proved to be an optimal additive content with an
excellent combination of improved fracture strength (from 2.5 Mpa to 4.5 Mpa), increased
coating resistance (from 104 Ω·cm2 to 109 Ω·cm2) and ideal coating uniformity. Mechanical and
electrochemical characterizations subsequently confirm substantially enhanced mechanical
properties and barrier performance of the composite coating, which effectively resist crack
propagation and impede penetrations of water and chloride ions through the coating. Theoretical
calculations further uncover that modified SiO2 particles with enriched methyl groups endow a
strong bridging effect to interact with silicone rubber monomer, which, together with anti-
agglomeration property of methyl groups, contributes to a pronounced improvement in
mechanical performance of nanosilica-filled silicone rubber. Benefitting from the enhanced
mechanical and barrier properties, the as-fabricated nanosilica-filled silicone rubber
demonstrates a superior protection for the encapsulated circuits with a significantly improved
lifetime (709.1 h) compared to that of circuits coated by pure silicone rubber (472.8 h) and bare
circuit boards (1 h), which offers great values for packaging material design in future IED
encapsulation.

ABSTRACT

Dual-drug delivery systems for tissue regeneration have recently attracted substantial attention
due to their potency to overcome limitations of conventional anticancer drugs, tackle drug
resistance problems, as well as improve the therapeutic efficacy. In the report, we developed
some novel targeted nanogels and hydrogels based on polysacharide/gelatin derivatives to
simultaneously deliver phytochemicals and anticancer drugs or bioactive compounds which lead
to synergistic effect in tissue regeneration. As a sample, the targeted FA-GP-P123 nanogels will
be focused in detail. The results indicated that the drug loading capacity of FA-GP-P123
nanogels was significantly higher than that of P123 micelles. The kinetic release profiles of QU
and PTX from the nanocarriers were governed by Fickian diffusion and swelling behavior,
respectively. Notably, FA-GP-P123/QU/PTX dual-drug delivery system induced higher toxicity
to MCF-7 and Hela cancer cells than either QU or PTX individual delivery system, and the non-
targeted dugs delivery system (GP-P123/QU/PTX), indicating the synergistic combination of
dual drugs and FA positive targeting effect. Furthermore, FA-GP-P123 could effectively deliver
QU and PTX to tumors in vivo after administration into MCF-7 tumor-bearing mice, which
resulted in 94.20 ± 5.90% of tumor volume reduced at day 14. Another injectable delivery sytem
was developed from alginate-cystamine-pluronic (ACP) hydrogel, in which encapsulated biosafe
nitric oxide (NO) donor L-arginine(A) and resveratrol (R) as an ROS scavenger for sustainable
wound therapy in the diabetic state. The combination of A and R showed a prominent effect on
anti-oxidative activity. The elimination of superoxide anions from the activated immune
cells/oxidative cells by resveratrol maintained the NO-proangiogenic factors generated from L-
arginine. Furthermore, the AR-ACP hydrogel endowed outstanding features such as
haemocompatibility, non-skin irradiation as well as antibacterial activity. In the in vivo diabetic
mice model, complete epidermal regeneration comparable to undamaged skin was observed with
AR-ACP hydrogel. The synergy between A and R in the ACP hydrogel facilitated
neovascularisation in the early stage, resulting in the higher balance in cellularity growth and
collagen deposition in the dermal layer compared to control groups. Taken together, our findings
demonstrate that the use of a customised ACP-based hydrogel, with the additional L-arginine and
resveratrol, resulted in significant skin regeneration in the diabetic state.

ABSTRACT

Drug developement to prevent and treat diseases, especially incurable and chronic diseases, by
combining the wisdom of traditional medicine from natural herbs with nanotechnology and
modern medicine is the new direction of many scientific research centers around the world, as
well as in Vietnam. With this scientific direction, scientists at the Institute of Nano Medicine and
Pharmaceutical (INP) have successfully developed a series of new generation drugs from
Vietnamese natural medicinal herbs. Typical examples of these achievements are a series of
medicinal ingredients- phytochemicals- extracted from nature that have been manufactured using
nanotechnology [1-3]. For examples, Nano Berberin is prepared from the Coscinium
fenestratum; Nano Curcumin is from turmeric root; Nano Gingerol is from Ginger root; Nano
Saponin is from Ngoc Linh ginseng and Panax notoginseng; Nano Artemisin is from Artemisia
annua. From such nano-structured herbal ingredients, drugs to treat incurable and chronic
diseases have been formulated. Typical examples are the drug ANTICAN (1) which aids anti-
cancer treatments; the drug CINABET (2) which helps the treatment of gastrointestinal diseases.
Another example is BINHAN (3), a medicine which relieves migraine pain as well as having
sedative effects. Basic characteristics of pharmaceutical ingredients and drugs:
1. Products from natural Vietnamese ingredients
2. Manufactured using nanotechnology and modern western medicine
3. Scientifically accurate
4.Excellent practical applicability
Keywords: Vietnamese herbal drug, phytochemicals; nanotechnology; traditional medicine.

ABSTRACT

A specific rheumatoid arthritis (RA)-microenvironment-triggered nanocarrier for RA treatment

of a first-line antirheumatic drug (Methotrexate, MTX) has been proposed (Figure 1). Reduced
glutathione (GSH) responsivity, cystamine, was first introduced on the alginate backbone, which
was then used as the bridge to connect pluronic F127 (temperature-responsive factor) and folic
acid (targeting factor for active immune cells), resulting in dual-responsive triggered targeting
carrier, PCAC-FA. In vitro study demonstrated that PCAC-FA was preferentially taken up by
activated macrophage cells rather than normal ones, suggesting the targeting of PCAC-FA to
inflamed tissue. The loading capacity of the designed carrier was 21.23 ± 0.91 %. MTX from the
PCAC-FA carrier was significantly accelerated release in the presentation of glutathione or in
cold shock condition, proposing the efficacy-controlled release. MTX@PCAC-FA showed
excellent hemocompatibility, confirming a suitable application with parenteral administration.
Notably, the acute and subacute toxicity in the mice model showed that the toxicity of MTX had
significantly reduced after encapsulating in the PCAC-FA carrier. These nanoplatforms not only
provide an alternative safe strategy for the clinical treatment of rheumatoid arthritis with MTX
but also deliver MTX selectively and provide on-demand drug release via external and internal
signals, thus emerging as a promising therapeutic option for precise RA therapy.

ABSTRACT

To achieve sufficient targeting efficiency and treatment progress in vivo, the biodistribution
parameters of therapeutic and imaging agents should be controlled. In vivo optical bioimaging
using the emission of near-infrared (NIR) light enables the monitoring and tracking of
nanoparticles (NPs) in deep tissues. Moreover, combining magnetic resonance imaging
(MRI)/NIR fluorescence signals and therapeutic agents can create a multifunctional nanosystem
in cancer diagnosis and treatment. This paper aims to evaluate the chemotherapy and passive
targeting efficiency of PLA-TPGS-Fe3O4-Doxorubicin-Cyanine 5.5 NPs in CT26 murine colon
tumors by in vivo magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), bioluminescence, and NIR optical
bioimaging. The quantitative method of processing MRI signals based on the intensity
distribution in T2*-weighted images at 7 T showed the effective passive accumulation of
nanosystems at the tumor location 4 hours after injection. The percentage of pixels below I0.25
was significantly different (p<0.001) between the control group (3.35%) and the treatment group
(13.82%). The result of this method was validated by NIR optical imaging, with the highest
tumor concentration after 3 hours of injection. The multifunctional nanosystem has good
chemotherapy effects; a statistically significant difference was observed after 72 hours of
treatment using bioluminescence imaging. These results indicate that the nanosystem exhibited a
full benefit of diagnosis and treatment.

ABSTRACT

A A non-invasive photobiomodulation (PBM) method using near-infrared (NIR) light is introduced

in this study, which performs an effective wound healing process in diabetic mice. The NIR color
conversion layer (CCL) with overall thickness of 0.25mm is fabricated by doping CuInS 2/ZnS
quantum dots (QDs) in fibrous polymer structures. The NIR device is constructed from a red
organic light-emitting diode (ROLED) light source at peak wavelength of 630nm coupled with a
NIR CCL at photoluminescence (PL) emission peak of 814nm. Herein, to investigate the effects
of NIR device on wound healing and cellular functions, the diabetes mellitus (DM) mice were
irradiated NIR light with total dose of 2.5 J/cm 2 for 9 consecutive days after wounding. The
exposure to NIR light showed there is no cytotoxicity on cellular metabolic activity.
Additionally, the wound remaining area and the epidermal thickness were sharply reduced
compared to DM control. Thus, in vivo assays comprehensively evaluated the biological effect of
NIR irradiation to accelerate the healing process in diabetic mice (Figure 1). For further PBM
applications, the flexibility, and the power density of NIR device will be studied to match human
skin.

ABSTRACT

LED lighting with an emission spectrum that matches the absorption spectrum of the
phytochrome pigment of plants (violet (400 - 460 nm), red (Pr - 660 nm), and far-red (Pfr - 730
nm)) is the most effective light to control flowering and increasing crop yield. These LEDs are
created by coating red and far-red phosphors onto blue LED chips. However, the far-red
phosphor with high efficiency is more difficult to manufacture and more expensive than the red
one. In this work, the eco-friendly phosphors based on nonrare-earth elements (Zn2SnO4: 3%Cr3+
(ZTO: Cr3+) and Zn2SnO4: 3%Cr3+,0.6%Al3+ (ZTO: Cr3+, Al3+)) having strong absorption in the
blue range (400-450 nm) and strong emission in far-red light around (700-740 nm) were
produced successfully by high energy planetary ball milling technique and post-annealing in air.
The Al3+ ion co-doped Zn2SnO4: 3%Cr3+ causes shifting in the photoemission and
photoabsorption of the single-doped sample due to manipulating the local crystal field around
Cr3+ sites. The ZTO: 3%Cr3+, 0.6%Al3+ presents broad-band peaking at 730 nm, which is a 10
nm blue shift compared to the single-doped one. The same situation happens with the excitation
spectra. Further, the Cr3+ doped ZTO and Cr3+, Al3+ co-doped ZTO phosphors are coated onto
blue LED Chips, which both show near-infrared light with the corresponding energy conversion
efficiency of 6.6% and 16.61 %, respectively. Finally, the ZTO: 3% Cr 3+, 0.6% Al3+ was mixed
with commercial red phosphor 660 nm and coated onto blue LED chips with different mass
percentages to create agricultural LEDs. The LEDs were then packed and tested to control
chrysanthemum plant growth and flowering. The results demonstrate that inexpensive and
efficient ZTO: 3% Cr3+, 0.6% Al3+ are potential materials for agricultural LEDs.

ABSTRACT

Biodegradable electronic systems, called transient electronics impart a framework of minimally

invasive tools for bio-medical therapy by eliminating the necessary of secondary removal
surgery of implants. Bioresorbable inorganic elements such as molybdenum (Mo), tungsten (W),
zinc (Zn), magnesium (Mg), and gallium (Ga) have been satisfying requirements as core
materials for electrical functions in transient electronics including interconnection and electrical
stimulation. Among them, Mg is well-known as a promising candidate material for a
bioresorbable material, as it is high biocompatible and electrical conductivity [1-3].
Nevertheless, Mg generally dissolves on a biofluid in a fast manner and limits the practical
lifetime and operation period for their electronics. Over the few decades, researchers are trying to
develop high dissolution resistance of Mg-based implants and advancing their enhanced
performance. However, a few drawbacks remain as hurdles in a design and process
implementation. Herein, we propose the elemental strategy for increasing dissolution resistance
using Mg-Zn alloy with a homogeneous single phase formed by physical vapor deposition.
MgxZny precipitation as secondary phase in as-cast Mg-Zn ingot causes the accelerated
dissolution in Mg matrix via galvanic corrosion, but single phase of Mg-Zn alloy shows a slower
dissolution rate compared to Mg, because of a relatively higher anodic potential than pure Mg.
Wireless heating trace based on Mg-3Zn alloy thin film electrodes has been demonstrated as a
clinical-relevant application of post-sterilization after operation.

ABSTRACT

Light, with specific wavelengths, plays a crucial role in plants' growth and flowering. In this
work, LED bulbs emit violet (410 nm) and red (630 nm) light, which have been investigated for
controlling the flowering of the Chrysanthemum plant. Next, the experimental test was
designed to determine how the violet and red spectra impact flowering time and the number of
flowers of Chrysanthemum plants. The actual experimental test was set up for plants grown
under controlled conditions with exposure to varying ratios of red and violet light intensities.
Data collected included flowering onset and the number of flowers per plant. Results indicated
that the red/violet ratio significantly affected flowering, accelerating or inhibiting the process.
These findings suggest that a combination of red and violet lights can control the
Chrysanthemum plant's flowering process.

ABSTRACT

Using plant extracts is powerful in the green synthesis of metal or metal oxide nanoparticles
applied for biomedical applications as it is environmentally friendly and contains no toxic
chemicals. In this study, the electrochemical method with Camellia chrysantha flower extract
was used to synthesize green silver nanoparticles. The extract acted as an electrolyte, reducing
agent, and stabilizer. Without chemicals, the synthesized nanoparticles were characterized by
ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy (UV-Vis), X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron
microscopy (TEM), and zeta potential methods. The results show that the silver nanoparticles
have been succeffully synthesized with small sizes and spherical shapes. The silver nanoparticles
are well dispersed with a zeta potential of −29.7 mV. The antibacterial ability of silver
nanoparticles on Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus bacterial strains using minimum
inhibitory concentration (MIC) and minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) methods was
evaluated. The results demonstrated that silver nanoparticles synthesized by the electrochemical
method using C. chrysantha flower extract have highly antibacterial ability against Gram-
positive and Gram-negative bacterial strains. Thanks to the long use of C. chrysantha flowers in
food and cosmetics, therefore, the synthesis of silver nanoparticles from C. chrysantha flower
extract can open up many new aspects in many fields such as cosmetics, food, and medicine.
Keywords: Camellia chrysantha, silver nanoparticles, electrochemical, minimum inhibitory
concentration (MIC), minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC).

ABSTRACT

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is considered as one of the useful techniques for research,
clinical diagnosis, treatment of patients owing to high quality of tissue imaging. Contrast agents
(CAs) are often used in MRI, enhancing image spatial resolution and increasing detection
sensitivity. The CAs efficiency is measured by their longitudinal (r1) and transverse (r2) molar
relaxivities, associated with their capability to shorten the spin-lattice (T1) and spin-spin (T2)
nuclear relaxation times of water protons. At present, as a result of the Gd-based CAs which are
associated with renal fibrosis as well as the inherent dark imaging characteristics of
superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles, Mn-based CAs which have a good biocompatibility
and bright images are considered ideal for MRI. In this study, a simple approach to synthesize
poly (maleic anhydride-alt-1-octadecene) (PMAO)-coated MnO nanoparticles (MnO@PMAO
NPs) with high colloidal stability in physiological conditions (salt concentration of 165 mM and
pH value of 7.4) is described here for potential applications as T1 contrast agents for magnetic
resonance imaging. The thermal decomposition methodology is used to produce uniform
MnONPs, monodispersed with size range of 7-10 nm, and its hydrophobic surface is modified
with PMAO molecules, conferring hydrophilic properties. After PMAO coating, the nanoparticle
presents high colloidal stability in concentrations ranging from 0.5 to 1 mg mL −1, average
hydrodynamic size (Z-average) of 60 nm, and negative surface charge in both simulated body
fluid solutions and pure water with zeta-potential of -30 and -40 mV, respectively. Furthermore,
the obtained nanofluids are still stable over a wide range of salt concentration (from 50 to 250
mM). In addition, the structure, morphology and characteristic properties of the materials are
thoroughly investigated by XRD, FTIR, XPS, TEM, and EDX. The MRI images of in-vitro
samples taken by the T1 status which shows that our MnO nanoparticles can be used as a T1
MRI contrast agent. The suspensions provided strong positive contrast enhancement in T1-
weighted imaging due to high longitudinal relaxivities (r1) (r1 = 5.1 mM -1s-1 at 1.5T). The results
suggest that these nanoparticles display characteristics for potential applications as an MRI T1
contrast agent.

ABSTRACT

Recently, the porous MnCo2O4 nanorods (MCO) have unique properties that make them useful
for electrochemical sensor. In this study, MCO is utilized as surface modified material for
electrochemical sensor based on screen-printed carbon electrode (SPE). MCO/SPE acted as an
electrochemical sensor to dopamine (DPM), paracetamol (PCM), carbendazim (CBZ), and
ascorbic acid (AA) detection. Based on the obtained results, the influence of MCO structure on
electrochemical oxidation of above analyte were investigated in detail and discussed as well, via
electrochemical kinetic parameters as: electron transfer rate constant (k s), adsorption capacity
(Γ), catalytic rate constant (kcat), and diffusion coefficient (D). As a result, the MCO-based

ABSTRACT

The outbreak of COVID-19 raises a certain need for a sanitization method which is both
effective and environmental friendly. Dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) plasma has been
studied for decades to reach out a method to optimize disinfection way for a real life device, yet
none is currently commercially available. In this work, DBD plasma generators with various
electrode pattern, plasma power, ozone concentration are tested in a sanitization box on S.
Aureus and E. Coli bacterias. The humidity inside the box is controlled by Arduino system
equipped with a programmable humidifier and humidity sensor. Ozone contrentration is also
monitored during the experiment by a (Non-Dispersive Infrared) NDIR sensor. Efficiency of the
sanitization process are observed on standard S. aureus and E. Coli samples 24 hours after the
experiment. The results show that with proper humidity level, DBD plasma perform better
disinfection that extreme high and low humidity level (Figure 1). This research contributes
valuable insights for the ongoing refinement and implementation of DBD plasma techniques in
surface disinfection applications tos a compact and efficient device.

ABSTRACT

In recent ages, green nanotechnology has gained attraction in the synthesis of metallic
nanoparticles due to their cost-efectiveness, simple preparation steps, and environmentally-
friendly. In this report, copper nanoparticles (Cu NPs) were prepared using Syzygium nervosum
whole leafs aqueous extract as a reducing, stabilizing, and capping agent. The Cu NPs were
characterized via UV–Vis Spectroscopy, Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR),
powder X-Ray Difraction (XRD), Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM). The UV–Vis
spectra of Cu NPs showed a surface plasmonic resonance band to occur at 550 nm. FTIR
analysis revealed the presence of secondary metabolites on the surface of Cu NPs, with a
characteristic Cu–O stretching band being identifed at 522cm −1. Transmission electron
micrographs showed that Cu NPs were nearly spherical, with an average particle of 20 nm
obtained from the TEM imagine. The CCB crystalline structure of Cu NPs was confrmed using
XRD, and crystallite size calculated using the ScherrerDebye equation was found to be 15 nm.
These copper nanoparticles displayed their efficiency in controlling the growth of human
pathogens, i.e., Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus. All these studies indicated that
CuNPs synthesized by orange extract have the potential to serve as a green nanomaterial for
biomedical applications

ABSTRACT

Currently, there are a number of lateral flow rapid tests that have been developed to detect HBsAg
in human serum or plasma. However, very few ones could be performed on whole blood samples.
In addition, these tests mostly use passive conjugation method to attach antibodies to a bare gold
nanoparticle. By taking advantage of intermolecular forces between molecules and surfaces (e.g.
van der Waals and ionic forces), antibodies will spontaneously bind to the surface of a bare gold
nanoparticle to form a conjugate. Because there is no covalent bond keeping the conjugate intact, it
is possible that the antibodies will detach from the nanoparticle surface under certain conditions
such as changes in salt concentration or solution pH…, this leads to the reduction of specificity of
the test. Furthermore, during passive conjugation, the orientation of the antibodies on the
nanoparticle surface is not well controlled due to the way that the antibodies and the particles can
be simply mixed together leading to decreasing of sensitivity of the test. To overcome the above
limitations, in this study, we have developed a technique using covalent bonds to attach
antibodies to bare gold nanoparticles to create conjugation particles. Furthermore, the blood
separation membrane is integrated onto the sample pad of test strip. This membrane has high
storage volume and high retention efficiency allowing complete stoppage of red blood cells,
helping to perform whole blood testing. The membrane works well with both fingertip blood and
stored blood. Analyte adsorption in the membrane is minimized resulting in highly sensitive test
strips. After being manufactured, the test strip is tested with HBsAg with concentrations varying
from 0 to 500 ng/mL. All 5 groups of test strips, when injected with a solution containing
HBsAg, gave positive results. The results also show that this test strip can detect a concentration
of 1 ng/mL HBsAg. The specificity of the test strip was also tested against the surface antigen of
the hepatitis A virus. The test strip showed a negative result in this case. Comparing the results
for blood samples with the hospital's test results including 42 positive blood samples and 163
negative blood samples, the fabricated test strips have sensitivity, specificity and reliability are
97.7%, 100% and 99.5%, respectively.

ABSTRACT

Klebsiella pneumoniae is one of the most common pathogenic, multidrug-resistant Gram-

negative bacteria that triggers postoperative infections leading to septic shock and fatality.
Therefore, the urgent need is to generate rapid and sensitive diagnosis techniques for timely and
effective intervention. The present work described the fabrication of lateral flow immunoassays
(LFAI) based on antibody-gold nanoparticles conjugation combined to RGB system to
quantitatively detect Klebsiella pneumoniae. The LFAIs have showed the lines after 15 minutes
with a good sensitivity, a low limit of detection in the linear detection range of this
immunosensor from 101 to 108 CFUs/ml when combining with color saturation system. There
were no false positive and cross-reaction observed on the test strips in this study, indicated that
the system was optimized with highly specificity. This finding might provide a well-suited
solution for a quick, inexpensive and easy to use detection method for potential commercial
manufacture.

ABSTRACT

Zinc oxide (ZnO) is one of the important metal oxide nanoparticles that has been focused on
research by the scientific community. The unique of properties of ZnO nanoparticles such as
catalysis, photochemical properties, therapeutic effects, fungicidal, antibacterial and UV filtering
make ZnO nanoparticles a multifunctional agent and more promising for wastewater treatment as
an alternative to conventional physical and chemical nanoparticle production processes. In this
study, green synthesis of nano ZnO using peony leaf extract was investigated. The formation of
ZnO nanoparticles synthesized by the green synthesis method can be summarized as shown in
Figure 1. The influence of synthesis parameters such as extract volume, calcination temperature,
calcination time, and pH value on the formation of ZnO nanoparticles was also investigated. The
morphology and structure of ZnO nanoparticles were analyzed by XRD and SEM methods.
Vibrations of functional groups in the synthesized sample were studied by FTIR and Raman
spectroscopy. The optical band gap energy was calculated from the solid reflection spectrum.
Furthermore, the photocatalytic activity of ZnO nanoparticles for the degradation of RhB dye
under UV and LED lamps was also studied.

ABSTRACT

This study focused on sustainably synthesized hybrid nanomaterials based on lignocellulose

derived from rice husks,and evaluated their efficacy against bacterial and fungal strains.
Lignocellulose was then used to reduce metal cations to the atomic level and also stabilize
nanoparticles. TEM images revealed that the nanoparticles were spherical morphology, with
diameters ranging from 4 to 16 nm. The antibacterial experiment’s results illustrated that hybrid
nanomaterials exhibited an inhibitory capability of up to 99.9% against E. coli and S. aureus
within 72 h. Simultaneously, the antifungal results showed that the nanohybrid materials have a
better ability to inhibit the A. niger than A. flavus fungus. An antimicrobial mechanism of hybrid
nanomaterials was proposed. The outcome indicates that employing biopolymer-based hybrid
nanomaterials with highly efficient antimicrobial properties represents a feasible approach for
sustainable synthesis. This strategy has the potential to reduce environmental pollution from
abundance of resources and yield functional materials endowed with antimicrobial properties.

ABSTRACT

Antifungal biomaterials are gaining interest as an effective strategy for controlling fungal
pathogens because of their nontoxicity, biodegradability, and biocompatibility. The present study
aimed to compare the in vitro antifungal activity of three biocomponents, including neem oil,
squid pen chitosan, and chitosan nanoparticles (SCNs), against Fusarium pseudensiforme
pathogen in durian trees. All biomaterials showed a decrease in mycelial growth as their treated
concentrations increased. However, at the same concentration of 250 ppm after eight days of
incubation at 28°C, SCNs exhibited the highest in totally inhibiting the growth of Fusarium
pseudensiforme, while the lesion diameters were 2.5 cm (neem oil) and 2.1 cm (chitosan).
Besides, the lowest dried biomass was obtained after eight days of incubation in broth culture at
250 ppm of the SCNs. The findings suggested that SCNs could be an effective alternative
biomaterial for controlling the Fusarium pseudensiforme pathogen in durian trees.

ABSTRACT

Non-enzymatic glucose sensors play a critical role across various sectors, including the food
industry, biomedicine, and clinical diagnostics. They offer advantages in stability, sensitivity,
and cost-effectiveness compared to enzymatic counterparts. The synthesis of advanced
nanomaterials for these sensors must be simple and economical for practical deployment. By
avoiding biological components, non-enzymatic glucose sensors, utilizing nanostructured porous
metals, metal oxides, or carbon-based materials, boast extended operational lifespans. Metal
oxide-based sensors, in particular, catalyze glucose oxidation directly through activated metal
oxide contacts. In our study, we developed non-enzymatic glucose sensors by depositing
Ni(OH)2 directly onto nickel foam (NF) substrates. Characterization involved field-emission
scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive X-ray analysis, and Raman spectroscopy.
Electrochemical performance assessment, using cyclic voltammetry (CV), was conducted across
various NaOH concentrations and electrode surface area. Subsequently, the sensors were
employed for glucose concentration measurement in 0.3 M NaOH. The Ni(OH) 2/NF sensor
demonstrated high sensitivity (22.12 mA mM -1 cm-2) with a low detection limit of 287.1 µM,
exhibiting selectivity for glucose detection. Its wide linear range positions it as a promising
candidate for real-world applications.

ABSTRACT

The Giant Magneto Impedance (GMI) effect is a phenomenon where there is a significant change
in impedance when a high permeability conductor is exposed to an external magnetic field. This
effect is commonly observed in various geometries of amorphous magnetic materials such as
magnetic ribbons, thin films, and amorphous wires. Among these materials, Co-based
microwires stand out due to their characteristics of low magnetostriction [1], high saturation
magnetization, high permeability, and low coercivity, resulting in exceptionally high GMI ratios
and remarkable sensitivity to magnetic fields. Inspired by the magneto LC-resonant effect [2],
recent research has shown that adjusting the total length or coil density can effectively modulate
the resonant frequency of GMI sensors that utilize Co-based wires arranged in a micro-sized
planar (2D) spiral architecture. A key advantage of these planar spiral-patterned sensors over
their 3D counterparts is their improved compatibility for integration into microfluidic systems,
particularly in biomedical applications [3]. Experimental results indicate a dominant dependence
of resonant frequency on the total length of the coil. Additionally, the ability to measure the DC
magnetic field reveals an impedance change of approximately 40% across a wide magnetic field
range of ± 360 Oe. The spiral-shaped sensor shows promise as a versatile option for expanding
the utility of GMI sensors, especially in biomedical contexts, due to its simplicity, effectiveness,
and ease of integration into microfluidic systems.

ABSTRACT

The nanoparticles Gd2O3:Eu3+ are functionalized with Avidin, Biotin, and Avidin-Biotin groups
into the luminescent material system. The obtained material is spherical in shape with a diameter
of about 140-200nm, observed through FESEM, TEM measurements. The luminescence
spectrum of Gd2O3:Eu3+ functionalized with Avidin, Biotin, Avidin-Biotin shows a strong
emission peak at the wavelength of 611 nm, corresponding to the electric dipole transition of
Eu3+ ions from 5D0 →7F2. Other peaks at 590, 625, 650, and 705 nm have lower intensities and
they correspond to the transitions 5D0 → 7F1; 5D0 → 7F2; 5D0 → 7F3; 5D0 → 7F4. The infrared
spectrum shows the appearance of characteristic Gd 2O3 bonds such as Gd-O, characteristic bonds
of the hydroxyl group (OH) and hydration water also appear in the structure. The characteristic
vibration region of OH and Si-O-Si bonds. There is a stretching vibration N-H and bending
vibration NH2 of the free NH2 group in the APTES coating layer. There is an increase in free
NH2 groups on the surface of nano particles Gd2O3:Eu3+@SiO2, increasing the peak intensity in
the region of 1627 cm-1 when attaching Avidin-Biotin. However, when only attached with
Avidin or Biotin, the peak intensity in this region is lower. Therefore, when attached with both
Avidin-Biotin, more free NH2 groups will be attached, better biocompatibility. Through this
study, it shows that the material has potential applications in biomedicine.

ABSTRACT

Pesticides play a vital role in modern agriculture by enhancing crop yield and controlling pests.
However, their indiscriminate use poses significant risks to environmental and human health.
Acetamiprid, a widely used neonicotinoid pesticide, has raised concerns due to its persistence
and potential toxicity. Traditional methods for detecting acetamiprid often involve time-
consuming procedures and expensive equipment. In this study, we propose an approach for the
rapid and sensitive detection of acetamiprid using surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy
(SERS) facilitated by silver nanostars. The obtained results show that silver nanostars,
characterized by high surface area and enhanced electromagnetic field at the tips, serve as
effective substrates for SERS. Specifically, SERS substrates made of AgNSs allowed the
detection of acetamipride at concentrations as low as 10 µg/L with good uniformity and
reproducibility.

ABSTRACT

Trauma wound is an inevitable health issue in life. Many researchers have endeavored to develop
multifunctional materials to enhance wound healing after injury. Syzygium resinosum (Gagnep)
Merr. et Perry, the leaves have been used as a traditional medicine for their notable biomedical
activities in bacterial inhibition and cell proliferation. In this study, we synthesized silver
nanoparticles (AgNPs) using the Syzygium resinosum (SR) extract as a reducing and capping
agent due to its rich phenol and polyphenol composition. The SR extraction process was
evaluated to obtain the highest total bioactive content. The phytochemical analysis was
performed to determine the total phenolic contents by using the Folin–Ciocalteu method and the
antioxidant activities were tested using DPPH method. Furthermore, the synthesized Ag NPs was
loaded in alginate-pluronic thermosensitive hydrogels, to create the multifunctional hydrogel
film on the wound surface at body temperature. The physico-chemical properties of the
composite hydrogels, including gelation time, mechanical strength, swelling ratio and
degradation rate were thoroughly investigated as the function of Ag NPs and polymer
composition. The sustained release profiles of Ag NPs and bioactive compounds from the
resulting hydrogels were presented. In addition, the antimicrobial property of the composite
hydrogels was investigated using the Kirby-Bauer test and the biocompatibility of the materials
were tested tos fibroblast cells. The results indicated that Ag NPs-alginate thermosensitive
hydrogels exhibited the high killing effects against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative
bacteria, without compromising the biocompatibility. The findings suggested that Ag NPs-
alginate composite hydrogel represents a promising injectable dressing for the treatment of
infected wounds.

ABSTRACT

In the present study, bacterial cellulose (BC) produced by A. xylinum strains using jackfruit rags
as a carbon source was investigated. BC/PVA was prepared via an in-situ growth process by the
direct adding polyvinyl alcohol into the medium and compared with a composite made by
immersed bacterial cellulose in polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) as shown in Fig. 1. Furthermore,
BC/PVA was impregated with biogenic silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) to develop antimicrobial
films. Moisture content, swelling ratio, water vapor permeability, and mechanical properties
were measured to assess the effect of polyvilnyl alcohol on BC films. The results showed that the
presence of PVA in the BC acted as a plasticizer, leading to increased mechanical strength of
BC/PVA films, while significantly decreasing their water vapor permeability. Fourier transform
infrared and scanning electron microscopy revealed excellent compatibility between PVA,
AgNPs and BC. BC/PVA/AgNPs film exhibited strong antibacterial performance against
Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus subtilis, Klebsiella pneumoniae, and Escherichia coli, with
average zones of inhibition of 18.0 ± 0.3 mm, 15.0 ± 0.1 mm, 14.0 ± 0.3 mm and 11.0 ± 0.2 mm,
respectively. This suggest that it could be a promising candidate for an antibacterial food
packaging.

ABSTRACT

The aggregation of amyloid beta (Aβ) peptides is associated with the development of
Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, there has been a growing belief that the oligomerization of
Aβ species in different environments has a neurotoxic effect on the patient's brain, causing
damage. It is necessary to comprehend the compositions of Aβ oligomers in order to develop
medications that may effectively inhibit these neurotoxic forms that affect the nervous system of
AD patients. Thus, dissociation or inhibition of Aβ aggregation may be able to prevent AD. To
date, the search for traditional agents and biomolecules has largely been unsuccessful. In this
context, nanoparticles have emerged as potential candidates to directly inhibit the formation of
Aβ oligomers. The oligomerization of the dimeric Aβ peptides with or without the influence of a
silver nanoparticle was thus investigated using temperature replica-exchange molecular
dynamics (REMD) simulations. The physical insights into the dimeric Aβ oligomerization were
clarified by analyzing intermolecular contact maps, the free energy landscape of the dimeric
oligomer, secondary structure terms, etc. The difference in obtained metrics between Aβ with or
without a silver nanoparticle provides a picture of the influence of silver nanoparticles on the
oligomerization process. The underlying mechanisms that are involved in altering Aβ
oligomerization will be discussed. The obtained results may play an important role in searching
for Aβ inhibitor pathways.

ABSTRACT

In this study, the synthesis of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) has been performed using aqueous
extract of green tea as a reducing agent and stabilizer, which offers an alternative, efficient,
inexpensive and environmentally friendly method. Reduction of HAuCl 4 by polyphenols present
in tea leaves extract provides AuNPs (Au3+ → Au0). Visual colour change from colourless to
ruby red colour confirms the formation of AuNPs which is further confirmed by maximum
absorption peak at 550 nm by UV-spectra. The reaction rate is fast and completed in 15 minutes.
The effect of green tea extract concentration on the morphology of the nanoparticles is studied. It
is found that as the concentration of tea extract increased, the shape of the nanoparticles changed
and finally became spherical at high concentrations. Formation, functional groups, crystalline
phase, and morphology changes of the synthesized AuNPs are characterized by various
techniques including UV-Vis spectrophotometer, Fourier transforms infrared (FTIR)
spectroscopy, X-Ray diffractometer (XRD), Field emission scanning electron microscopy
(FESEM), Dynamic light scattering (DLS). FESEM images show the spherical shape of the
AuNPs with average size of < 100 nm.

ABSTRACT

The multicore magneto-plasmonic Fe3O4-Au@SiO2 (FAS) particles were successfully

synthesized by the Stöber method. TEM results show that the FAS material exhibits a spherical
morphology and is relatively uniform, with an average particle size of approximately 400 – 500
nm. Additionally, the FAS samples form a structure of porous SiO 2 shells with multiple cores.
These FAS particles exhibit superparamagnetism and absorb visible green light, with a surface
plasmon resonant (SPR) peak around 545 nm. The magnetic and absorption properties of these
particles make them suitable for a wide range of bio-applications, such as magnetophoretically-
enhanced photothermal therapy.

ABSTRACT

A magnetic iron oxide-based biodegradable periodic mesoporous organosilica nanoparticle,

Fe3O4@BPMO, was successfully synthesized through co-precipitation of iron oxide core and
condensation of organosilica precursors for biodegradable periodic mesoporous silica shells. The
physicochemical properties of obtained hybrid nanoparticles were characterized using Fourier
Transform Infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM), atomic force
microscopy (AFM), powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), nitrogen adsorption-desorption
isotherms, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The obtained particles show a spherical shape
with a porous silica layer covering the magnetic Fe3O4 cluster, giving a core-shell structure with
both magnetic and biodegradable mesoporous properties. The superparamagnetic Fe 3O4
composition exhibits cytotoxic effects on cancer cells via the facilitation of radicals’ production
and the porous biodegradable silica shows high loading anti-cancer drugs capacity. These results
indicate the promise of hybrid magnetic iron oxide-based BPMO as a nanoparticle-based
radiosensitizer for simultaneous radiotherapy and anti-cancer drug delivery in chemotherapy and
further ability to be used in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and magnetic hyperthermia.

ABSTRACT

No doubt, the goal of China to achieve carbon neutrality in 2060 is formidable and challenging.
In the context of carbon neutrality, green and low carbon technologies are highly desired.
Photocatalysis is a kind of technology, ideally, converting solar energy into chemical energy,
which has been demonstrated to hold great promise in many fields [1-3]. Considering solar
energy is green and sustainable, its utilization should benefit carbon neutrality. From this
prospect, in this presentation, we focus on converting N-containing molecules with assistance of
solar energy-based photocatalysis. Among various N-containing molecules, we take NO and N2
as representatives. Effective photocatalytic NO conversation and N2-fixation were achieved over
defects-engineered Ti-based perovskites and carbon nitrides etc. (Fig.1). Comparing with
traditional N-containing molecules’ conversion under harsh conditions with high temperature and
pressure, the present photocatalytic conversion is much more beneficial to carbon neutrality.
Furthermore, mechanistic insights into the conversion processes involving the role of defect
engineering were presented. Overall, the present work highlights the vital role of defect
engineering in photocatalysis towards carbon neutrality and sustainability.

ABSTRACT

Major modifications to current materials is necessary in order to attain superior and novel
features for developing smart materials that will be helpful for advanced devices. These materials
can plausibly be employed for sustainable energy applications ranging from generation to
storage. However, developing alternative materials for the conservation and harvesting thereby
maintaining the green environment have significant obstacles and challenges that need to be
overcome. In the current state of the art, materials ranging from inorganic to organic and/or
composite of them are implemented in either energy generation or environmental remediation.
However, smart materials with their functionalities can integrate themselves as a single material
and can be helpful in energy as well as environmental remediation. In view of this, materials like
antimony selenide, bismuth vanadate, iron oxide, and ferrites were identified, explored with the
smart functionalities in order to be used simultaneously in energy generation as well as in
treating contaminated waters. Smart functionalities like selective crystal facets, unique structures
occurring in nature, grafting with suitable carboneous materials helped to integrate a single
material which works efficiently in energy generation as well as wastewater treatments. Further,
these smart materials were seen to be reused, remains stable and are less toxic in nature. Hence,
the talk will be focused on exploring the smart functionalities of the nanomaterials for
simultaneous energy as well as wastewater treatments.

ABSTRACT

Combination of high surface area of nanoparticles and multicomponent system with entropy
stabilization may bring the promise to accelerate material discovery for environment and
energy applications. Here, we report a multi-element design of 2D hydroxides to explore
unique functionality that come from the combination of their high surface area and 2D
chemical disordering. Along with the increase in compositional complexity (i.e., increase
number of multi-elements), the thickness of the nanosheets decreased and was no more than
two times the value of unit cell parameter. The amount of surface defects including electron-
rich metal cations and oxygen vacancies increases with the configurational entropy gain.
These surface defects were proved to be the active sites for anionic dyes adsorption. The
multi-element 2D hydroxides was also a potential electrocatalyst for oxygen evolution
reaction. In addition, we plan to show ammonia storage particles as another case study of a
multi-component system.

ABSTRACT

Fossil fuels generates harmful emissions to the environment such as carbon dioxide (CO 2),
nitrous oxide (N2O), nitric oxide and nitrogen dioxide (together termed NOx), and fluorinated
gases (such as hydrofluorocarbons, perfluorocarbons, sulfur hexafluoride, etc.) are considered the
primary pollution for the environment currently [2]. Global warming potential was used to
compare the global warming effects of different gases, which has been calculated to reflect how
long gases remain in the atmosphere, on average, and how strongly it absorbs energy [3].
Besides, the discharge of persistent organic pollutants (POPs)also contributes to water pollution,
increasing global environmental pollution. Recently, CO 2 removal and conversion into valuable
products have drawn much attention due to its ability to mitigate the amount of CO 2 greenhouse
gas and form alternative energy sources [4]. Many different methods exist to remove
contaminants in the environment, such as electrochemical and thermochemical conversion,
biological fixation, and photocatalytic reduction [5-8]. Photocatalysis is the best choice because
it does not require high temperature, pressure, and high voltage [9-11]. Moreover, this method is
considered a promising and potential solution for sustainable development with zero carbon
emission, no produced secondary pollution, and energy efficiency in the future [12-14]. In this
presentation, we introduce a development of semiconductors (such as WO 3, ZnO, TiO2,
etc.)/g‑C3N4 heterojunction towards the photocatalytic applications in environmental pollution
treatment.

ABSTRACT

Carbon conversion, utilisation, and storage are important strategies to mitigate climate change.
For developing countries, utilising agricultural waste is one of the most cost-effective pathways
to reducing their CO2 emissions [1]. For rice-producing countries in Asia, rice straw is the most
advantageous choice due to its large volume and ease of collection. This study reviews the
current straws-to-chemical methods and their efficiency and limitations. An optimal flowsheet of
rice straw-to-chemical is proposed to evaluate the CO2 abatement potential. Various scenarios are
considered for the farming conditions. Under current conditions, the process can save ~ 10% of
CO2 emissions compared to complete combustion. The utilisation of green energy and advanced
reactors may reduce CO2 emissions by up to 30%. The technical challenges and economic
benefits of chemical conversion are also discussed. Future research directions are recommended
to fully realise the economic and environmental potential of the chemical process.

ABSTRACT

Mechanochemistry represents an environmentally sound alternative to the traditional solution-

based chemistry, as it offers the option to reach desired materials in a one-step solvent-free
fashion without the need of supplying external heat or pressure. It is also recognized by
International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC). It is a very efficient tool for
recycling of rich plethora of waste materials [1]. Its another very popular utilization is the
mechanochemical preparation of nanocrystalline materials, as instead of using organo-metallic
compounds, the products can be obtained through purely solid-state processing of elemental
precursors, very common non-toxic compounds or even natural materials.

Figure 1. Bio-mechanochemical vs. green synthesis of silver nanoparticles using lavender [2].

Among many naomaterials, the silver-based ones are of particular interest due to their well-
known antibacterial activity. During the last couple of years, our research group has developed a
biomechanochemical approach, where by one-step mechanochemical processing of AgNO3 used
as Ag precursor and natural material used as a reducing agent, antibacterially active Ag
nanoparticles embedded in the residual matrix of the natural species were successfully prepared.
As reducing agents, also common plants, such as lavender, can be used, as shown in our study

[2]. The obtained results were shown to be comparable with that obtained by a classical green
synthesis (Fig. 1). In the present contribution, the Design of Experiments (DoE) methodology,
namely using the Taguchi orthogonal array was used to investigate the effect of the experimental
conditions (namely rotation speed of the planetary ball mill, milling time, overall sample mass
and lavender-to-AgNO3 mass ratio) on the size of formed silver nanoparticles, actual Ag content
and also on their antibacterial activity, is investigated in detail.

ABSTRACT

The concentration of heavy metals in water is usually not regularly monitored because the
measurement methods are often expensive and time-consuming. Titration is a cost-effective and
straightforward method; however, the accuracy is relatively low. Other methods, such as AAS,
ICP-MS, and HPLC are capable of detecting levels in the range of a few parts per billion (ppb).
These methods, however, require modern and costly sophisticated equipment, and the analysis
process can take a long time. Therefore, sensors that rely on electrochemical principles have been
recently developed to detect heavy metals. In this report, micro electrodes were fabricated by
micro-fabrication techniques and then working electrodes were modified with nano-structured
layers based on Nafion, thermal reduce graphene, blend of polyvinyl alcohol and chitosan. These
layers can increase the adsorption capacity towards the heavy metals to give a significant
enhancement in sensitivity and selectivity for trace level detection of heavy metals like iron and
lead in water. The electrochemical measurement methods such as cyclic voltammetry (CV),
impedance spectroscopy, anodic stripping voltammetry, linear sweep anodic stripping, square-
wave anodic stripping voltammetry (SWASV), square wave voltammetry (SWV),… were used.
The modified electrodes displayed a significant enhancement in sensitivity and selectivity for the
detection of Pb and Fe. Under optimized conditions, the modified electrode revealed a detection of
ppb range with a high correlation coefficient. The selectivity study revealed that most common
foreign ions did not bring significant interference for Pb and Fe detection. The application of these
micro electrodes is promising as these electrochemical sensors, particularly those with nm-sized
electrodes, are capable of detecting ultra-low concentrations, with a detection limit of less than one
ppb. Additionally, they can be mass-produced, reducing production costs, and making them
suitable for on-site measurements.

ABSTRACT

Water is essential to life and progress. The World Health Organization reports that 3.2 billion
people worldwide face water scarcity, while >420 billion m3 of wastewater is released into rivers,
lakes, and oceans annually, contaminating 5.5 trillion m 3 of freshwater. Therefore, based on the
concept of seawater desalination, the current emerging solar water purification technology
primarily employs clean renewable solar as the primary energy input channel and uses interfacial
photothermal conversion materials to separate water and impurities via evaporation, which has the
benefits of low energy loss and excellent efficiency when compared with other water purification
technologies.

challenges of interfacial evaporation technology e.g. fundamental, and operational issues. By

leveraging the principles of interfacial engineering, this technology optimizes the conversion of
solar radiation into thermal energy for water evaporation, waste heat recovery into
thermoelectricity, and photothermal-induced water splitting, as illustrated in Figure 1. From
fundamental studies elucidating the underlying mechanisms to scalable prototypes tailored for
real-world implementation, this holistic approach offers a pathway toward sustainable water
desalination, energy generation, and fuel production [2-5]. As we navigate toward a more
sustainable future, hybrid interfacial solar evaporation stands as a beacon of hope, bridging the
gap between scientific inquiry and tangible solutions to global challenges.

Keywords: Solar energy, hybrid, interfacial evaporation, water-fuel-energy-crisis.

ABSTRACT

This work investigates the fabrication of novel natural-inspired photothermal materials based on
biomass such asthe leaf, coconut husk, fingered citron, and green tea for application in Solar steam
generation (SSG) systems. It is observed that the light absorbance of fabricated materials exceeds
92% in the wavelength region of 300-250nm. The developed SSG systems result in a water
evaporation rate up to 1.92kgm-2h-1 under 1 sun illumination. With a simple fabrication process,
high water evaporation performance, and excellent structural stability, the SSG based on
fabricated photothermal materials highlights the promising application toward sustainable
seawater desalination.

ABSTRACT

Overcomsumption of conventional fossil energies such as coal, oil, and natural gas causes
inescapably serious crises including energy depletion and global warming resulted from
greenhouse gas emissions. Therefore, it is necessary to look for renewable and environmentally
friendly solutions to replace these non-renewable resources for minimizing the mentioned-above
negative effects. In this concern, design and synthesis of advanced catalytic materials promoting
the efficiency of energy conversion processes have been paying great attention from material
community worldwide. Herein, we give some updated achievements focusing on novel metal

research group that efficiently catalyzing for the (photo)electrochemical water splitting and CO 2

in a controlled manner applicable to water splitting and other energy conversion processes.

ABSTRACT

Inexpensive ZnO is considered a titanium oxide TiO 2-alternative semiconductor photocatalyst for
treating organic pollutants. In this work, the fabrication of ZnO by doping of metallic (Ce, Ta)
and non-metallic (C) elements was conducted by hydrothermal method to enhance the visible-
light photocatalytic activity of methyl orange dye (MO) degradation. While the modification with
metallic dopants (Ce-doped ZnO (CEZ) and Ta-doped ZnO (TAZ)) exhibited rod-shaped
morphologies, the doping of C (CZO) resulted in the ellipsoidal ones. The diffuse reflectance
spectroscopy (DRS) showed a reduction in the bandgap (E g) of obtained materials from 3.06 eV
(undoped ZnO) to 2.90 eV (TAZ), 2.93 eV (CEZ), and 2.96 eV (CZO). The assessment of
visible-light MO photodegradation shows a better degradation efficiency of doped ZnO as all
prepared materials possibly remediated ≥86% of 10 ppm MO in a neutral medium (pH 7) after 2
h, whereas that of undoped ones achieved only 60%. In addition, by employing a pseudo-first-
order kinetic model, it also demonstrates a significant increase in the MO degradation rate of
doped ZnO materials compared to undoped ZnO.

ABSTRACT

Recently, nitrogen fixation has been gaining interest due to the increasing demand for nitrogen
compounds such as NH3 for hydrogen storage. A typical industrial process for nitrogen fixation is
the Haber-Bosch process. Due to nitrogen molecules consisting of extremely strong triple bonds,
the process requires high pressure, high temperature, and considerable energy consumption.
Unlike the Haber-Bosch process, nitrogen fixation by plasma can be conducted under atmospheric
pressure conditions, and the reaction is easily controlled by adjusting dissipated discharge power
and gas flow rate in feed. With these unique features of a plasma process, plasma nitrogen fixation
has the potential to couple with a renewable energy system for storage energy through NH 3
production or other nitrogen products (storage energy value). Here, we will introduce nitrogen
fixation in a rotational gliding arc plasma [1], the dependence of the plasma nitrogen fixation
based on input power, gas component, and flow rate. Moreover, we will also present our recent
results on nitrogen fixation by plasma with a presented water vapor.

ABSTRACT

The fabrication of simple, fast, environmentally friendly, and cost-effective methods is of great
importance for advancing nanotechnology. Herein, we report a novel and potentially scalable
strategy for synthesizing eco-friendly gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) using phytochemicals with the
assistance of plasma technology. A homebuilt system of non-thermal atmospheric pressure plasma
jet is utilized to trigger reactions between Rose extract and gold ions in distilled water, facilitating
the synthesis process without the addition of any toxic chemicals. The results suggest that the
addition of a catalytic amount of rose extract significantly improves the formation rate of gold
nanoparticles. Comprehensive material characterization through UV-Vis spectroscopy,
transmission electron microscopy (TEM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier-transform
infrared (FTIR) analysis, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) techniques demonstrates
the formation of high-purity AuNPs with uniform morphology. These techniques also help to
understand the reaction mechanisms. Moreover, the catalytic properties of the as-prepared AuNPs
for organic dye degradation are demonstrated. This environmentally friendly method provides an
effective strategy for synthesizing green metallic nanoparticles on a larger scale.

ABSTRACT

The process of desulfurizing smelting flue gas to produce industrial by-products such as sulfuric
acid and ammonium sulfate, has irreplaceable significance for environmental protection and
sulfur resource utilization. However, in the actual production process, abnormal color products
such as the blackening of sulfuric acid and the yellowing of ammonium sulfate produced by
smelting flue gas often occur. The quality of flue gas desulfurization products obtained cannot
meet the requirements of the market, resulting in huge economic losses, safety hazards and
environmental protection hazards. To solve the problem of the abnormal color of flue gas
desulfurization products, the reasons for the blackening of sulfuric acid and the yellowing of
ammonium sulfate were revealed, and the technology of strengthening desulfurization products
with ultrasonic synergistic oxidants was developed in our work [1-4]. After treatment, the
organic pollutants in industrial sulfuric acid and the ammonium thiosulfate impurities in the
ammonium sulfate solution were deeply purified. The resulting sulfuric acid was transparent and
colorless, the resulting ammonium sulfate was white, which met the requirements of the market.
In addition, ultrasound promoted the generation of free radicals and strengthened the oxidation
effect of oxidants, thereby significantly improving the quality of flue gas desulfurization
products.

ABSTRACT

Aerogels are becoming promising substrate material for fabricating photothermal material for
application in Solar Steam Generation (SSG) because of its suitable properties such as 3D
interconnected porous structure with high porosity, low thermal conductivity... In this work, novel
micro/nano structure aerogel was fabricated by creating the suspension among cotton, PVA, Fe3+ and
extract of Syzygium nervosum leaves before freeze – drying the suspension to obtain the cellulose
aerogel based photothermal material (CABP). The fabricated (CABP) has with 3D interconnected
porous microstructure, which could enhance water transport ability, reduced thermal conductiviy,
and quickly dissolve salt crystal on the CABP surface. Thank to the formation micro/nanosized
complexes between Fe3+ and phenol free radical on CABP material exhibits high light absorption
ability of 94% and excellent seawater evaporation rate of 2.3 kg.m-2.h-1 under 1 sun illumination. In
particular, thanks to the cross link among PVA and Cellulose, and polyphenol groups in the CABP
material is reinforced, thereby the material could maintain the high evaporation after being exposed
ton seawater for at least 20 days. This research suggest a new type of photothermal material from
natural cellulose for application in solar desalination.

ABSTRACT

During the past few decades, metal oxide nanoparticles (MO NPs) such as TiO 2, SnO2, CeO2 have
been shown to be efficient photocatalysts. In this study, we developed a highly effective method to
enhance the photocatalytic and electrocatalytic properties of MO NPs by controlling the number of
oxygen vacancies (Vos) in MO NPs using Ir-ions dopants. By introducing Ir-ion dopants into the
MO matrix, we synthesized MO NPs with varying degrees of Vos and systematically investigated
their catalytic properties. The controlled introduction of Vos into MO NPs tunes the band
structures and surface chemistry, leading to enhanced activities of the NPs as photocatalysts for
the selective oxidation of 2,5-hydroxymethylfurfural and electrocatalysts for acidic hydrogen
evolution reaction. We believe that Ir-ion doping offers a novel approach for optimizing oxide-
based catalyst defect engineering, thereby enabling more efficient biomass conversion and water
splitting. Our results have a significant contribution to the field of multi-purpose catalysis and hold
the potential to inspire catalyst designs that can drive us toward a more sustainable future.

ABSTRACT

In this study, a material called Fe3O4/GO aerogel was successfully prepared using hydrothermal.
The material was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared
spectroscopy (FTIR), field emission scanning electron microscopy/energy dispersive X-ray
spectroscopy (FESEM/EDX), vibration sample magnetization (VSM), and Brunauer-Emmett-
Teller (BET). The effects of initial concentrations, contact time, and pH values on the 2,4,5-T
adsorption were investigated from batch tests. The experimental data were analyzed using four
adsorption isotherm models: Freundlich, Langmuir, Tempkin, and Dubinin - Redushkevich (D -
R). The effect of different adsorption parameters was fitted to the pseudo-first-order and pseudo-
second-order. The obtained results show that the Fe3O4 have a spherical shape and nanoparticle
size (50-100 nm); the nano Fe3O4 were well dispersed on the GO aerogel base to form the
composite materials of Fe3O4/GO aerogel, the material's magnetism reaches 20.66 emu, which can
easily separate objects material of solution after adsorption. The 2,4,5-T adsorption on the material
was fitted to the Langmuir and Freundlich isotherms, and the maximum adsorption capacity
reached 136.99 mg/g. The kinetics of the adsorption process follows the apparent second-order
model. The primary mechanism of 2,4,5-T adsorption is π-π interaction, hydrogen bonding, and
electrostatic interaction. The nature of adsorption is chemical and physical.

ABSTRACT

Nitrogen fixation plays an important role in plants because it participates in the biosynthesis
pathways. Although the atmosphere is predominantly composed of nitrogen, plants are unable to
directly use it, and the natural process of nitrogen fixation is insufficient for the extensive
nutritional requirements of global agriculture [1,2]. In this report, we present a facile and low-cost
method for the artificial production of nitrate in water using a plasma-ultrasonochemical process.
A hybrid system of a non-thermal atmospheric pressure plasma jet combined with an
ultrasonication bath was assembled for this purpose. The propagation of ultrasonic waves in water
leads to the formation and growth of aqueous microscopic bubbles, which then collapse to produce
highly reactive •H and •OH. Simultaneously, plasma has been proposed to produce reactive
nitrogen species (RNS), which can undergo chemical reaction •H and •OH to generate nitrogen-
enriched water that contains higher levels of nitrate (NO2-) and nitrite (NO3-). This work provides
an alternative strategy toward sustainable and on-site nitrogen fixation in water.

ABSTRACT

Due to their unique microstructural features, increased effectiveness, and decreased weight,
biomass-derived materials are being used more and more in the fabrication of carbon-based
microwave absorbers. Here, carbonization followed by potassium hydroxide activation of coconut
shells was used to generate nano-porous biomass carbon composites [1-4]. The microwave
absorption characteristics were also studied. The resulting samples are very porous, with many
micropores and nanopores and large specific surfaces. The microwave absorption performance is
best improved in the sample that is activated at 700 °C. At 11.2 GHz, it reaches its peak reflection
loss of −48.4 dB, and from 7.6 GHz to 18 GHz, its effective absorption bandwidth (reflection loss
below −10 dB) is 10.4 GHz, which corresponds to a 2 mm thickness. The outstanding microwave
absorption performance is greatly enhanced by the three-dimensional porous design, the dipolar
relaxation loss, and the interfacial polarization relaxation loss. The material is able to absorb
electromagnetic radiation effectively due to its porous structure and large specific surface area.
Our study's results show that carbon from coconuts has great promise as an effective and
lightweight material for electromagnetic absorption.

ABSTRACT

In this work, we present the results of a study on synthesis, characterization and photocatalytic
property of Ag-doped ZnO nanoparticles, which were synthesized by combustion method using
polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) agent. The nanoparticles were charcterizied by powder X-ray
diffraction, and transmission electron micrography. X-ray diffraction (XRD) showed the single
phase of hexagonal structure in all the samples (except for 5% Ag-doped ZnO). Transmission
electron microscopy (TEM) shows that most of the particles have spherical shape and grain size
of nanoparticles is ranging from 10 to 30 nm in diameter. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM)
showed the porous surface of sample. Both of shape and grain size of nanoparticles depended
on both of Ag ratio and annealing temperatures. Rhodamine B was used as a representative dye
pollutant to evaluate the photocatalytic activity. The results showed that the photocatalytic
properties of Ag-doped ZnO nanoparticles are better than pure ZnO nanoparticles. The 3%Ag-
ZnO photocatalyst showed the best photocatalytic performance.

ABSTRACT

The escalating global industrial demands have resulted in water source contamination by
hazardous wastes like organic compounds, dyes, heavy metals, and oils. Consequently, water
pollution has emerged as an increasingly grave concern, making wastewater treatment a
paramount environmental challenge. This necessitates the quest for efficient, cost-effective
materials with large-scale manufacturing capabilities. Graphene, a two-dimensional material,
exhibits exceptional properties including durability, mechanical strength, electrical conductivity,
and thermal stability, rendering it suitable for environmental applications. This paper presents
research on synthesizing multilayer graphene materials from graphite intercalation compounds
(GICs) using the induction heating method. Additionally, experiments were conducted to evaluate
its efficacy in removing dyes such as Methylene blue (Mb), Rhodamine 6G (Rh), and oils (Diesel
Oil - DO) from wastewater. The study findings indicate that the synthesized material can adsorb
dyes almost completely (> 99%) and, with a quantity of 1g, retain up to 50g of Diesel Oil. The
structural properties of the synthesized graphene material were also assessed through SEM, BET,
and XRD measurements. Furthermore, the utilization of the thermal shock synthesis method using
an induction furnace demonstrates its capability to produce a large quantity of material at a low
cost.

ABSTRACT

Biogas, produced from biomass sources, can serve as a renewable fuel to help achieve ambitious
targets of replacing fossil fuels. The main components of biogas are CH 4 and CO2, which are
produced through the biological decomposition of organic matter in anaerobic conditions.
However, biogas also contains toxic gases such as NH 3, CO, and H2S, with the latter being
particularly harmful to the environment, causing metal corrosion, and affecting human health.
Therefore, the capture of hydrogen sulfide (H 2S) gas is crucial for the use of biogas in the
emerging renewable energy market. In this study, Fe-doped ZnO materials were evaluated for
their ability to remove H2S at a lab-scale. These materials were synthesized using a low-cost and
simple hydrothermal method. The morphology and characteristics of the samples were examined
using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), UV-vis
spectra, energy-dispersive x-ray spectroscopy (EDS), and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The
adsorption properties of CH4 and CO2 gases, as well as the ability to capture H2S gas, were tested
using a multi-way toxic gas detector (X-am 8000, Drager). The H2S capture mechanism of the Fe-
doped ZnO material was also discussed. The results indicate that the rod-like structure of the ZnO
material, combined with iron doping and the formation of Fe 2O3 nanoparticles on the surface of
the ZnO rods, make it a promising and feasible material for H 2S capture in biogas filters.

Keywords: Fe doped ZnO structure, H2S capture, biogas, renewable energy.

ABSTRACT

The chemoresistive sensors for VOCs detection based on the noble metal nanoparticles
functionalized ZnFe2O4/ZnO heterojunction nanostructures have been studied in this work. The
ZnFe2O4/ZnO heterojunction nanostructures were fabricated by the low-cost and simple
solvothermal method following heat treatment in the air. Noble metal (Au and Pt)
functionalization of ZnFe2O4/ZnO heterojunction nanostructures was carried out by a wet method
under UV irradiation. VOCs (such as ethanol, methanol, acetone, 2-propanol and toluene)
sensing properties were examined at various working temperatures. The VOCs sensing
mechanisms of the noble metal nanoparticles functionalized ZnFe2O4/ZnO heterojunction
structures based sensing layer were also explained and discussed in detail. The morphology and
properties of the samples were examined by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmitting
electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), UV-vis absorption, photoluminescence
(PL) and electrical measurements.

ABSTRACT

Nanocomposite materials based on g-C3N4/TiO2 are considered highly effective for the
photocatalytic treatment of organic pigments and antibiotics. To improve the photocatalytic
activity of materials, various metals have been doped onto g-C3N4/TiO2 [1,2]. In this study, Fe was
doped onto g-C3N4/TiO2 with varying weight percentages (0 - 10 wt% Fe) by deposition-
precipitation method combined with selective reduction of CO in the gas phase for the zNVI phase
formation. The physicochemical characteristics of the material were analyzed by X-ray diffraction
(XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Fourier
transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), and band-gap energy measurements. The photocatalytic
activity was evaluated by the decomposition of Reactive Black 5 (RB5) under ultraviolet (UV)
light (high-pressure mercury lamp with wavelength 365 nm) and visible light irradiation (Xenon
lamp). The results showed that the catalyst with an optimal weight percentage of Fe was highly
effective in decolorizing this pollutant.

ABSTRACT

Lignin is the second most abundant and common natural polymer in nature, after cellulose, but it
has yet to be used effectively. This report presents the research results on lignin recovery from
corn husks, durian shells, and rice straws, which are ordinary agricultural wastes often dumped or
burned, causing waste and environmental pollution. The obtained lignin was converted into lignin
nanoparticles (LNP). It was initially tested as a heat-stable emulsion stabilizer in an emulsion-
polymer injection fluid system for enhanced oil recovery in the Southern Miocene reservoir of
Bach Ho field. The results show that LNP is easily fabricated under ultrasound support, achieves
high efficiency, and is stably dispersed in seawater for a long time. The oil-in-seawater-LNP
emulsion dispersion is durable and stable over a long period without the addition of surfactants. It
can be a potential injection agent for enhanced oil recovery technology by emulsion-polymer
injection.

ABSTRACT

In the present research, the hydrothermal method synthesizes the magnetic nanoparticles of
NiFe2O4 and the heterogeneous catalyst of (nNiFe2O4 – TiO2). Characteristic structures and
properties were determined by infrared (IR) spectrometry, X-ray diffraction, a scanning electron
microscope (SEM), and a transmission electron microscope (TEM). The photocatalytic activity
of (nNiFe2O4 – TiO2) has been studied, in which NiFeO4 is used as a carrier for TiO 2 to
decompose Methyl Orange (with a concentration of 2M) after 12 hours of treatment in an
aqueous solution, achieving a decomposition rate of over 98%. At the same time, TiO 2 was easily
recovered without generating solid waste, preventing secondary environmental pollution. These
results provide a scientific basis for application in manufacturing technology processes and
industrial textile wastewater treatment.

Keywords: magnetic materials, NiFe2O4, photocatalyst, TiO2, wastewater, methyl orange.

ABSTRACT

In this study, ZnO nanoparticles were decorated with 5-(4’-carboxyphenyl)-10,15,20-triphenyl

porphyrin-zinc (ZnTPPCO2Na) and used for photocatalytic removal of Rhodamine B dye. ZnO
nanoparticles were hydrothermally synthesized and then subjected to heat treatment, and finally
coated with a thin layer of ZnTPPCO2Na derivatives in solution. The resulting
ZnTPPCO2Na/ZnO composite was characterized using scanning electron microscopy (SEM),
high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), energy-
dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), UV–visible absorption spectroscopy (UV-vis), and Fourier
transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). ZnO nanomaterials, initially homogeneous and pure,
form clusters with rough spherical shapes of significantly larger diameter when unannealed
compared to those annealed at 600°C. The morphology of ZnTPPCO2Na-coated ZnO remains
nearly unchanged as the low amount of ZnTPPCO2Na forms an extremely thin layer on the
surface of the ZnO nanoparticles. The composite exhibited promising photocatalytic activity in
the degradation of Rhodamine B (RhB) in aqueous solution, outperforming pure ZnO-based
nanoparticles. The synergistic combination of ZnO nanoparticles and ZnTPPCO2Na showed
significantly enhanced photocatalytic performance, achieving an impressive 97.22% removal rate
of RhB after 120 minutes of UV light irradiation. The photocatalytic mechanism of the
ZnTPPCO2Na/ZnO composite, mainly involving •O2− and OH•, improves charge separation via
exciton-coupled charge-transfer processes, showing promise for efficient degradation of RhB dye
in environmental remediation applications.

Keywords: ZnO nanoparticles, 5-(4’-carboxyphenyl)-10,15,20-triphenyl porphyrin-zinc,

ABSTRACT

The conversion of fish and shrimp wastes to produce value-added products brings economic
benefits and reduces the risk of environmental pollution. This study presents a facile method for
preparing nano-hydroxyapatite/chitosan biocomposites (nHCB) for wastewater treatment and
bacterial immobilization. It is a novelty that hydroxyapatite nanoparticles (nHA) and chitosan
(CTS) were recovered from fishbone and shrimp shell sources. The prepared nHCBs showed a
high porosity, and nHA particles were well distributed in the CTS matrix. Due to these unique
properties as an adsorbent for removing dyes and Cu(II) ions from wastewater, nHCBs exhibited
rapid adsorption, high capacity, and easy separation for cyclic use. The maximum adsorption
capacity values of the nHA/CTS composite were 44.05 mg g −1 (methylene orange), 84.89 mg g−1
(methylene blue), and 236.97 mg g −1(Cu(II) ions). The Langmuir isotherm and the pseudo-
second-order model better describe pollutant adsorption than the Freundlich isotherm and the
pseudo-first-order model. It indicated that the adsorption mechanism is both chemical and
physical sorption. Research is underway to define thermodynamic parameters, scale up the
preparation process, and investigate practical wastewater treatment systems.

ABSTRACT

In this study, a hybrid material based on graphene/carbon nanotubes/gold nanoparticles

(Gr/CNTs/AuNPs) was prepared for further application in detection of fenitrothion at low levels.
Gr/CNTs/AuNPs hybrid film was first fabricated on copper foil by thermal chemical vapor
deposition (CVD) method before being transferred onto the surface of gold working electrode.
The morphological, structural and electrochemical characteristics of the modified electrodes were
characterized by scanning electron microscopy, Raman spectra, cyclic voltammetry and square
wave voltammetry. The developed sensor was used for developing fenitrothion electrochemical
sensor based on inhibition of fenitrothion towards acetylcholinesterase enzyme. The developed
fenitrothion sensor showed a low detection limit (LOD) of 1.16 x 10 -3 ppb in a wide
concentration range of 10-3 ppb - 10 ppb. The results suggested that the developed sensor can be
used for the detection of fenitrothion in water sources.

ABSTRACT

A novel malathion biosensor based on graphene-carbon nanotube-cerium oxide (Gr-CNTs-CeO2)

hybrid material modified gold working electrode was described and its electrochemical behaviors
were investigated. The morphological and structural analysis of as-synthesized hybrid material
were characterized via scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy
(TEM) and Raman spectra. The electrochemical characteristics of the modified electrodes were
characterized by cyclic voltammetry (CV) and square wave voltammetry (SWV). The developed
malathion sensor based on inhibition of malathion towards acetylcholinesterase enzyme showed a
low detection limit (LOD) of 1,18 x 10 -2 ppb in a concentration range of 10 -2 ppb - 1 ppb. The
results confirm that Gr-CNTs-CeO2 hybrid material effects the electrocatalytic activity and the
developed sensor can be applied for the detection of malathion in water samples.

ABSTRACT

Recently, multiferroic materials with strong piezoelectric effects have attracted much attention
because they can decompose organic waste that causes environmental pollution. Multiferroic
composites with composition xNiFe2O4/(1-x) Ba(Zr0.2Ti0.8)O3–0.5(Ba0.7Ca0.3)TiO3 (x = 0, 0.1, 0.2,
0.3, and 0.4) (denoted as NFO/BCT-BZT) have been successfully fabricated by ball milling
combined with treatment heat treatment in a short time, which is considered a potential
piezoelectric catalytic material. The average grain size obtained is about 100 nm, and NFO
ferromagnetic materials and BCT-BZT ferroelectric materials are evenly distributed in all samples.
With increasing content of NFO, the values characterize ferroelectric properties such as the
residual polarization (Pr), and the coercive field (Ec) has changed significantly, namely: the Pr
value gradually increased from approximately 0.005-0.048 µC/cm2, and the Ec values also
increased from 0.65-2.4 kV/cm when the NFO content increased from x = 0.1 to 0.4, in an external
electric field of 10 kV/cm. The presence of a ferromagnetic NFO phase not only significantly
improves the characteristic values for the ferromagnetic properties of multiferroic composites but
also dramatically affects the band gap and the piezo-catalysts ability of composites. The material's
decomposition rate of the synthetic dye methylene orange (MO) has been studied in detail. The
apparent first-order rate was constant for composites containing NFO with x = 0.2, which was
found to be k = 0.0128 min−1. This value is much higher than pure BCT-BZT (k = 0.0106 min−1).
This indicates that the presence of NFO has enhanced the piezo-catalysts activity of BCT-BZT.
This shows that the multiferroic material NFO/BCT-BZT is a good candidate as a piezoelectric
catalyst for decomposing organic substances that cause environmental pollution.

Keywords: Multiferroics, nanocomposites, piezo-catalysts, residual polarization, saturation

magnetization.

ABSTRACT

Low-temperature-assisted co-precipitation was used to generate nano-sized ZnAgO/ZnO/ZnAlO

composite material with Al and Ag impurity concentrations of 0% to 5% and 0% to 2%,
respectively. The composite material characteristics were investigated using XRD, FE-SEM,
optical absorption, and FTIR. The photocatalytic activity was determined by decomposing RhB
under Mercury lamp. Material characteristics were also assessed using SCAPS-1D software. The
shift of the diffraction peaks demonstrated that Al and Ag participated in ZnO crystal lattice.
Diffraction peaks arise at 2 of 32.2o, 39.1o, and 46.3o when Al and Ag impurities exceed 3% and
1% mol, respectively. At 32.2o and 46.3o, the Ag2O peak in the [002] and [220] planes are
responsible. The peak at 39.1° related to Al interstitial in ZnO crystal lattice (32.2°) or Al 2O3
impurity formation. The composite material size is less than 50 nm, and the dispersion is
homogenous, according to FE-SEM pictures. Impurity centers in composite material show optical
absorption at 2.7 eV, broadening the absorption to the visible region. The nano-sized
Zn0.99Ag0.01O/ZnO/Zn0.99Al0.01O composite material decomposes RhB entirely after 15 min of Hg
lamp illumination. SCAPS-1D shows that the most optimal material parameters are ZnAlO layer
donor density and thickness of 5x10 17 cm-3 and 60 nm, respectively, and ZnAgO layer of 1x1016
cm-3 and 150 nm.

ABSTRACT

Magnetic materials play a crucial role in the development of science and technology as well as in
daily life, with perovskite materials such as LaMnO 3 being notable candidates for various
applications. Presently, numerous research groups have studied LaMnO 3. The magnetic properties
of this material can transition from antiferromagnetic to ferromagnetic by doping with Sr 2+, Ba2+,
and Ca2+ at the A-site. When La is substituted with Nd in the material system, with x ranging from
0 to 1.0, the Curie temperature (TC) and the maximum magnetic entropy change (ΔSmax) increase,
reaching up to 4.38 J/kg.K. Substituting La with Pr yields interesting results with a TC near room
temperature. Refrigeration technologies comprise two methods: compressed/expansion air and
magnetic refrigeration (MR). Notably, the advantages of MR include high refrigeration capacity,
compact size, and environmental friendliness. Consequently, our focus is on thermomagnetic
materials to identify the optimal concentration with a TC near room temperature and the highest
entropy change for application in refrigeration. In this study, we investigated the crystal structure
and magnetocaloric properties of (La0.5Nd0.5)1-xSrxMnO3 (x = 0.0 - 0.5) compounds, prepared using
a conventional solid-state reaction method. All samples were single-phase. As the Sr2+ ion
concentration increased from 0 to 0.3, the Curie temperature rose to near room temperature, and
the maximum magnetic entropy change (ΔSmax) also increased, but decreased when x = 0.5. The
optimal concentration was found to be x = 0.3, with (ΔSmax) = 7.1 J.kg-1.K-1 for a magnetic field
change of 5 Tesla. These materials are suitable for refrigeration applications, are environmentally
friendly, and have high economic value.

ABSTRACT

There is a growing focus on sustainably researching and developing polymer materials for
practical applications. Thus, there is significant concern regarding the development of eco-
friendly, highly selective adsorption materials for treating contaminated solutions. The
foundation mandates that materials exhibit attributes including chemical polarity, physical
durability, and eco-friendly properties. In this study, biomass-derived polymer material subjected
to modification is expected to exhibit favorable morphology and structure, alongside efficient
adsorption (Fig. 1). These modifications endow the material with the capability to selectively
adsorb specific pollutants, including polar, non-polar substances, or ion contaminants.
Consequently, this enhanced adsorption capacity increases pollution treatment efficiency,
positioning the material as a promising alternative to traditional methods.

ABSTRACT

The impact of depositing platinum (Pt) nanoparticles at ultralow mass concentrations of 0.05%,
0.15%, 0.25%, 0.5%, 0.75%, 1%, and 1.5% via a low cost polyol method on graphitic carbon
nitride g-C3N4 nanosheets on structural and physical properties as well as photocatalytic
performance has been studied. The formation of Pt crystals was observed in the X-ray diffraction
(XRD) pattern with the appearance of two diffraction peaks of platinium crystals at 39.9 o and
45.9o. SEM images indicated the appearance of small nanometer-sized particles on the surface of
g-C3N4 nanosheets. Besides, Raman scattering spectra and Fourier Transform Infrared
Spectroscopy (FTIR) confirmed the influence of Pt nanoparticles on g-C3N4 crystal. X-ray
photoelectron spectra (XPS) also showed the existence of Pt element in the chemical composition
of as-synthesized samples. These are suitable evidence to explain the change in photocatalytic
performance of Pt-loaded g-C3N4 samples, in which Pt nanoparticles were hoped to serve the role
of an excited electron reservoir, causing an increase in the electron-hole pair lifetime.
Accordingly, all Pt-loaded g-C3N4 samples decompose Rhodamine B (RhB) and Methylene Blue
(MB) faster than the pure g-C3N4 sample. The sample loaded with Pt with 0.25% wt showed the
highest photocatalytic efficiency, completely decomposing 10 ppm RhB solution in 8 minutes of
solar simulation lamp illumination.

ABSTRACT

In this work, we present a study on using cold atmospheric plasma-liquid interactions to decorate
silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) onto a graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) substrate. We confirmed
the successful decoration of AgNPs on g-C3N4through several characterization techniques,
including SEM, UV-vis spectroscopy, and XRD. The obtained AgNPs/g-C3N4 composite exhibits
improved photocatalytic degradation of organic dyes. Specifically, it showed better performance
in Rhodamine B (RhB) removal under visible light compared to g-C3N4 alone. This improvement
is attributed to the combination of AgNPs and g-C3N4, which enhances light absorption and
prevents charge recombination. Our findings demonstrate that CAP can be an effective and eco-
friendly method for creating photocatalysts that can help clean up environmental pollutants.

ABSTRACT

MnO-Au hybrid nanoparticles were developed using a high temperature, wet-chemical method.
This method first prepared oleylamine-capped Au nanoparticles by the reduction method
followed by the thermal decomposition of manganese-based organometallic compounds. The
synthesized MnO-Au hybrid nanoparticles were characterized by X-ray powder diffraction
(XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX)
and high-angle annular dark field scanning transmission electron microscopy (HAADF-STEM).
TEM and HAADF-STEM images demonstrated the formation of MnO-Au hybrid nanoparticles
with diameters of 20-35 nm (MnO) and 10 nm (Au). EDX measurements confirmed the presence
of MnO and Au in the prepared hybrid nanoparticles.

Keywords: hybrid, nanoparticles, MnO, Au.

ABSTRACT

In this study, copper molybdenum sulfide (Cu 2MoS4) with different morphological
characteristics, phases, and crystallinity have been utilized as electrode materials for the
electrochemical oxidation and detection of ofloxacin (OFX) antibiotics. The influence of
crystallinity and morphology on prepared nanomaterials’ electrocatalytic activity has been
thoroughly discussed. As results, highly single-crystalline and plate-shaped morphology
structures of Cu2MoS4 would significantly enhance the electrocatalytic OFX oxidation with wide
linear working range, low detectable concentration, and high electrochemical sensitivity. The
CMS NMs-based electrochemical sensing platform showed excellent analytical performance
toward the CMS detection with two ultra-wide linear detection concentration ranges from 0.25 –
100 and 100 – 1000 μM, a low detection limit of 0.058 μM, and an excellent electrochemical
sensitivity (0.743 µA µM–1 cm–2). Furthermore, the proposed electrochemical sensors showed
satisfactory recovery results toward the analysis of OFX content in commercial pharmaceutical
formulations.

Keywords: copper molybdenum sulfide, Ofloxacin, electrochemical sensors, electrocatalytic.

ABSTRACT

We have been collecting materials data for many years and have built a databases suite called
MatNavi. AtomWork-Adv, an inorganic materials database, contains more than 360,000 crystal
structures, and PoLyInfo, a polymer database, contains more than 29,000 unique polymer
structures. These are curated from academic papers. Another database, KINZOKU, are based on
datasheets that we ourselves have tested to investigate the reliability of metallic materials for
more than 40 years. The data era is upon us. Data-driven research based on large amounts of data
is expected to bring innovation to materials development. MatNavi is a promising data source,
and we need to promote its utilization in response to the data age. It is also important to collect
data generated from daily research activities. The data that can be collected from papers is
limited to data that is fit for purpose and does not contain so-called negative data. Raw
measurement data and details of measurement conditions are also generally difficult to collect
from papers. Therefore, we have been working since 2017 on the development and application of
fundamental technologies to collect daily research data. After various trials and errors, it became
clear that it is effective to implement structuring and registration of data on the spot as they are
generated, which led us to develop a data structuring and registration system named RDE for this
purpose. Currently, research data are accumulated daily from 140 devices pf experimental
equipment in NIMS.

ABSTRACT

Artificial intelligence (AI) and wearable sensors are crucial in achieving the goal of precision
medicine, which is to customize the best treatment for each individual patient. The recent
combination of these two fields is improving patient data acquisition and the design of wearable
sensors for monitoring health, fitness, and surroundings. Wearable sensors aim to address the
limitations of centralized and reactive healthcare by providing individuals with insight into their
own physiology. However, the relationship between disease and therapeutic platforms is very
complex, making it difficult to analyze their output. Integrating AI can bridge this gap by using
pattern analysis and classification algorithms to improve diagnostic and therapeutic accuracy.
The future of AI-biosensors as shown in Fig. 1 (AI wearable sweat biosensors, AI ingestible
biosensors, AI glass biosensors, AI implantable biosensors, etc.) will mainly focus on AI
diagnosis (where the diagnostic algorithm in the microprocessor can verify the sensor output and
present diagnostic information), big data processing (using self-contained space for historical
data and various necessary parameters of data storage, significantly improving the controller’s
performance), and self-learning/adaptation (embedded microprocessors with advanced
programming functions, allowing the AI-biosensor to reconstruct the structure and parameters
according to certain behavioral criteria and have adaptive functions).

ABSTRACT

The community of computational physics and materials science in Vietnam is currently under
rapid development with more and more significant works published recently by domestic
scientists. However, the collaboration between Vietnamese scientists in this field is not as strong
as that from our expectation, and thus the research results are not reused and shared optimally,
partly because we do not have a computational platform to work together. To solve this issue, the
Quantum Materials group of Phenikaa University (https://qmat.phenikaa-uni.edu.vn/) has
initialized a platform to conduct simulations and store data, namely the Informatics for
Molecules and MAterials Discovery (IMMAD) platform. This platform, which is based on the
AiiDA framework, is first aimed to integrate as many as possible material-oriented machine
learning models and simulation tools so that end-users can quickly grasp important information
for the materials of interest and run simulations for validation if necessary. Second, data is stored
consistently, allowing for reproduction, sharing and data mining. Finally, computational
resources can be quickly integrated into the system without much effort. In this talk, we will
present all the details of this initiative and run certain examples for demonstration. We hope, this
platform can be a bridge to connect with a wide range of researchers for a stronger scientific
community in Vietnam.

ABSTRACT

Data-driven studies cannot be conducted without relevant data. What type of data is necessary for
exploring battery materials? The properties of battery materials, such as ionic conductivity and
activation energy, depend on their chemical composition, phase composition, and nano- and
micro-structures. Similarly, their performance in batteries, including charge and discharge
capacities, is influenced by the battery's composition and operating conditions, such as voltage
and current. Therefore, to accurately predict the properties and performance of battery materials,
comprehensive data on atomic properties, crystal structures, material structures, and battery
performance under various operating conditions are essential. In this work, we developed a data
network from which users can obtain comprehensive data necessary for data-driven studies of
battery materials. The battery data network consists of three databases, each dedicated to a
specific area:
- AtomWork-Battery (AWB): A newly developed database in this work, which includes data on
the composition, structure, and properties of battery materials, as well as the performance of
batteries made from these materials.
- AtomWork-Adv (AWA): A substance database developed by NIMS, containing data on the
crystal structure, phase diagram, and properties of single-phase materials.
- CompES-X: Another database developed by NIMS, which contains data on the electronic
structure calculated from the crystal structure data of AWA.
These three databases are interlinked through a well-designed identification system that maps the
relationships between batteries, materials, and substances. In this talk, the detailed process of
data collection, including paper selection, data extraction and curation, and the techniques used
to link the three individual databases together will be introduced.

ABSTRACT

Atmospheric corrosion as an electrochemical system is a very complex, nonlinear system

depending on various climatic and pollution parameters and on variables related to the material.
Therefore, it is of great theoretical and engineering value to build accurate atmospheric
environmental models, corrosion effect models, and corrosion kinetic models. It is helpful for the
establishment of corrosion prediction method for metal materials in various atmospheric
environments. Over the years, many models have been developed to assess the corrosion of
carbon steel in the atmosphere. Among them, the linear models were applied commonly and the
dose response functions were used to express the relationships between atmospheric corrosion
rate and pollution levels in combination with climatic parameters. The most widely accepted is
the stepwise regression model. Thanks to the development of Data Science in recent decades,
many models have been developed to assess the corrosion of carbon steel in the atmosphere
using machine learning or ANN. The results show the good fitness between the predicted values
and the real values. In this paper, the models of predicting atmospheric corrosion of carbon steel
which were developed by the conventional methods and using Machine Learning approach are
reviewed. Some ML algorithms were applied to predict atmospheric corrosion of carbon steel in
Vietnam and in Asian areas. The application of ML to predict the atmospheric corrosion of
carbon steel shows higher accuracy in comparison to the conventional models, among them the
GBRT and RF models showed the better results than that of ANN-LR models.

ABSTRACT

Although first-principles electronic structure calculation methods have high prediction accuracy
and have been used to elucidate various reaction processes, the spatial scale is limited to about
nm and the time scale is limited to about several tens of ps because of the high computational
cost. Recently, it has become possible to overcome this limit by combining DFT with machine
learning methods. Using multi-scale simulations, we have been able to achieve large spatial scale
and long time scale simulations on surfaces and interfaces that were previously impossible. We
aim to elucidate the heterogeneous catalytic reaction process through multi-scale simulations and
to identify factors that govern catalyst reactivity and provide guidelines for designing more
efficient catalysts. Self-regenerative materials are keys to the development of stable catalysts
used under high temperature condition, e.g., three-way catalyst converters in automobiles.
Among others, metal nanoparticles supported on perovskite oxides are promising ones. However,
little is known about their atomistic details, which are crucial for understanding and development
of thermally stable catalysts. Therefore, we investigated a machine-learning enhanced density
functional theory study of PdxOy nanoparticles supported on Sr3Ti2O7(001) surfaces and
demonstrate that supported oxidized Pd particles fulfill the conditions for the self-regenerative
catalysts [1]. We also investigated the influence of CO to the formation of Cu clusters on
Cu(111) surface by doing a set of MD simulations driven by machine-learning force-field. By
using the Cu island deposited on the Cu surface as the model, the simulations show that the CO-
decorated Cu clusters are formed within a hundred of ns at 450 K and 550 K given the exposure
to CO molecules. On the other hand, no cluster is formed on clean Cu surface even at 550 K.
CO-decorated Cu clusters ranging from dimer to hexamer are detected within a hundred of ns at
450 K. Lowering the temperature to 350 K doesn’t result in the formation of clusters due to the
scarce detachments of adatom. Raising the temperature to 550 K results in the formation of
bigger clusters, ranging from dimer to heptamer, but with shorter lifetime. The clusters can be
formed directly through simultaneous detachment of a group of step atoms or indirectly by
agglomeration of wandering Cu(CO)1 and smaller clusters on the surface terrace. The statistical
analysis on the evolution of the clusters shows the Cu(CO) 1 significantly involved in the
formation and decomposition of the clusters due to their high mobility [2].

ABSTRACT

Machine learning and deep learning have become crucial components of Industrial Revolution
4.0, transforming human life in numerous ways. In materials science, these algorithms have
emerged as the fourth paradigm, alongside experiment, theory, and simulation, and are widely
applied to investigate material properties. Leveraging structural parameters and chemical
formulas, machine learning and deep learning can predict complex material properties, such as
the optical spectrum of plasmonic nanostructures and the glass transition temperature and
structural relaxation time of amorphous drugs and other glass formers. This approach allows for
the assessment of material properties with reasonable accuracy, even before synthesizing them,
and has the potential to significantly boost industrial development, save time and resources, and
accelerate scientific understanding of structure-property relationships.

ABSTRACT

Several decades are often required to discover even one optimized material for a specific device.
This traditional trial-and-error-based optimization is known to be a main lead time in the
implementation of key electrochemical technologies, such as water-electrolyzer (WE) or
rechargeable batteries, in our society. Especially, water-splitting materials for WE are demanded
to be platinum-group-metal (PGM) free in order to provide green hydrogen with as low price as
possible. Here, it was shown that a collaboration with researcher and artificial intelligence (AI),
i.e. a human–machine collaboration, can significantly shorten the trial-and-error period to
discover of PGM-free multimetal OER electrocatalysts with on-demand element. We were able
to reach optimized materials only after 2% experimental trials of the entire candidate pool. The
material discovered can show electrochemical properties beyond a PGM of RuO2: the best PGM-
free electrocatalyst discovered exhibited excellent activity comparable to RuO 2 and, surprisingly,
also demonstrated a long stability with a high current density. These results show that human–
machine collaboration is an approach to empower human by liberating from traditional trial-and-
error and to go beyond their capability limiting research activity. It is our aspiration that this
work encourages scientists and engineers to harness the power of AI in material discovery,
transcending the limitations of current human capabilities and thereby accelerating science and
technology in the 21st century.

ABSTRACT

One of the core-works of analyzing Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS) data is to

select an appropriate equivalent circuit model to quantify the parameters of electrochemical
reaction process. However, this process often relies on human experience and judgment, this will
introduce subjectivity and error. In this paper, an intelligent approach is proposed for matching
EIS data to their equivalent circuits based on the Random Forest algorithm. It can automatically
select the most suitable equivalent circuit model based on the characteristics and patterns of EIS
data. Addressing the typical scenario of metal corrosion, an atmospheric corrosion EIS dataset of
low-carbon steel is constructed in this paper, which includes five different corrosion scenarios.
This dataset was used to validate and evaluate the proposed method in this paper. The
contributions of this paper can be summarized in three aspects: (1) This paper proposes a method
for selecting equivalent circuit models for EIS data based on the Random Forest algorithm. (2)
Using authentic EIS data collected from metal atmospheric corrosion, the paper establishes a
dataset encompassing five categories of metal corrosion scenarios. (3) The superiority of the
proposed method is validated through the utilization of the established authentic EIS dataset. The
experiment results demonstrate that, in terms of equivalent circuit matching, this method
surpasses other machine learning algorithms in both precision and robustness. Furthermore, it
shows strong applicability in the analysis of EIS data.

ABSTRACT

Thermal design and thermal management of electronic devices requires thermophysical

properties of thin films with their thickness in the nanoscale. At the nanoscale, thermal
conductivity differs from that at the bulk scale, where heat diffusion, i.e. Fourier law, starts to
shift to ballistic heat transport when the typical length scale decreases by less than a factor of 10
to the mean free path of the heat carriers. The time domain thermoreflectance (TDTR)
measurement method [1] is well known as a tool to reveal the thermal conductivity and transport
phenomena of nanoscale thin film. However, data analysis in which the thermal conductivity is
determined from the TDTR measurement signal has required much time to finish because we
should find a best parameter set from the huge parameter space. In this study, we report our
recent acceleration approach to analyze the data very efficiently using big data and machine
learning. By using machine learning to reduce the size of parameter space, we successfully
determine the thermal conductivity more than 120 times faster than the previous approach
(Figure 1).

ABSTRACT

Refractory high-entropy alloys (RHEAs) exhibit extremely mechanical properties at high

temperature and great potential application in industries. Combination of domain knowledge,
theoretical calculation and machine learning is used to quickly screen the huge composition
space overcoming the strength-ductile tradeoff. By integrating theoretical models, first-principles
calculations, thermodynamic calculations, we obtained a novel L2 1-Ni2TiAl phase-strengthened
refractory high-entropy alloy system, achieving a balance of lightweight, high strength, and
toughness. The candidate alloy was found to have an as-cast density of 6.618 g/cm³, a Vickers
hardness of 600.53±5.46 HV5, compressive yield strength of 2012.85 MPa and fracture strain of
8.42% at room temperature. Additionally, the yield strengths at 850°C and 1000°C are 1322.24
MPa and 783.36 MPa, respectively, with corresponding fracture strains of 14.86% and greater
than 50%. By integrating domain knowledge and machine learning to quickly screening the
composition space of TiZrHfNbVMoTa alloy, the candidate alloy possesses two solid solution
phases of BCC and HCP in the as-cast state, and the compressive yield strength at room
temperature reached 1312MPa and the fracture strain exceeded 60% without fracture. Both cases
indicated the high efficiency of materials design with the methodology of materials genome
engineering.

ABSTRACT

Understanding the influence of reaction conditions (O 2 pressure and temperature) on metal-

support interaction (MSI) is important to improve the thermal stability and catalytic reactivity of
heterogeneous catalysts. However, it is often difficult to reveal the stability and composition of
the catalyst due to the dynamical change (oxidation, reduction, aggregation, etc.) of metal species
under catalytic working conditions even with the advancement of operando spectroscopy [1].
Computer simulation based on density functional theory (DFT) is a powerful tool to investigate
the MSI, but it is still challenging to predict accurate catalyst models due to the structural
complexity and computational cost. Herein, we elucidate the thermal stability of Pd/Sr 3Ti2O7
(STO) [2] by operando computer simulation that combines DFT with machine learning-enhanced
global optimization (GOFEE) [3] and thermodynamics [4]. We apply the GOFEE method based
on an evolutionary algorithm and a Gaussian process regression, which is trained on the fly with
DFT calculations, to the search for the stable structures of Pd xOy on STO-327. Oxidation of
several small Pd clusters is assessed by thermodynamics from a collection of global minimums
of the supported PdxOy sampled by GOFEE. The square-planar PdO4 motif is identified as the
elementary building block of oxidized clusters. We find that oxidative PdxOy clusters are stable
under high-temperature redox conditions. MSI of Pd/Sr3Ti2O7 and Pd/𝛾-Al2O3 catalysts are
elucidated by considering the binding strength between Pd clusters and substrates. We find that
the MSI is further enhanced upon the oxidation of Pd clusters on both STO and 𝛾-Al2O3 surfaces,
indicating that the oxidative pretreatment will increase the thermal stability of the catalyst. More
importantly, compared with 𝛾-Al2O3, the interactions between small PdxOy clusters and STO
surfaces are much stronger due to strong charge transfer interaction, highlighting that the Pd/STO
catalysts have higher thermal stability. Finally, the growth of small oxidized PdxOy clusters is
also studied and some “magic” numbers in terms of stability against atomic ripening are found.

The active learning by machine learning and Bayesian optimization pipeline (ALMLBO) is a
new tool rising in the experimental material development [1,2]. The pipeline is a general
framework that comprises: a “learning” step based on past experiments and during which a
statistical modelization of a system {process parameters/composition, targeted properties} is
attempted by using experimental data to train a machine learning model that capture relationships
between parameters and properties; And an “active” step in which a set of experimental actions,
derived from the learned model of the system, are performed and are supposed to bring the
system closer to an objective. Bayesian optimization leverages this model-building to guide the
choice of parameter sets. Multiple learning-acting cycles constitute an active learning pipeline.
In the present case, the use of the ALMLBO has been developed on a strategic material, the
kesterite [3], to develop a process control and a fine composition adjustment as both key factor
for obtaining a superior thermoelectric (TE) property. On the first hand, it can reduce the number
of experiments required to find the ideal set of process parameters or composition tunning that
improve TE properties and, on the second hand, propose statistical relationships between the
process parameters and the targeted physical properties. Notably, the latter advantage supports
the establishment of dependencies which could appear pertinent to the understanding of a
physicochemical system like in the present study.

ABSTRACT

There are technical constraints to the stable operation of geothermal power plants. One of the
main reasons for it is scaling, caused by the precipitation of mineral phases dissolved deep
underground in hot spring water. The authors have been conducting research and development
from a material perspective to address the scaling issues in a geothermal power plant. In this
presentation, we will comprehensively summarize the scaling problems in the Obama hot spring
binary power plant and the research findings, which have implications for the industry. To
prevent scaling in the geothermal plant, we have been developing a surface treatment to avoid
calcium carbonate, mainly comprising the scale in the Obama hot spring. We tried to utilize
eluted ions from the coating. In laboratory tests, Ni-P coating showed the most scaling prevented
because an eluted phosphate ion exhibited to prevent calcium carbonate crystal growth [1-2]. The
scaling test was conducted in a field environment for around 5 months. Carbon steel, Ni-P plated
on it, and stainless steel pipes were installed as the transport pipe. However, the scaling
propensities among them are similar, and the anti-scaling effect of Ni-P plating did not work in
the field environment. To clear it, the microstructures of scale were analyzed [3]. We proposed
the basic microstructure. The scale constituted a layered structure, and the surface of the steel
pipe was first covered with corrosion product, and it was also covered with magnesium silicate.
The phase of the initial scale was not calcium carbonate but magnesium silicate. Therefore, Ni-P
plated steel does not seem to exhibit an anti-scaling effect. Based on these findings, we have
been studying the mechanism of scaling formation on materials [4] and establishing the method
for imitating scale in the laboratory test to investigate the anti-scaling property of materials [5].

ABSTRACT

Metallic glass (MG) is a type of amorphous metals, which has unique properties not found in
metallic crystalline materials, such as excellent mechanical properties and corrosion resistance
[1,2]. MGs are expected to have a wider range of applications, if larger sized samples than
conventional ones will be provided using the metastability in the supercooled liquid region.
Among many MGs, Zr-Cu MGs have high Glass Forming Ability (GFA) [3]. Particularly around
composition, it has been reported that the addition of dilute noble metals improves the GFA, and
precipitates icosahedral quasicrystal phases [4,5]. However, the effects of the addition of other
noble metals on GFA, the process of quasicrystal formation, and the relationship with the local
glass structure have not yet been well understood. In atomic-scale analysis of MGs, Classical
Molecular Dynamics (CMD) is often used with Embedded Atom Method (EAM) potentials, but
no EAM is available for Zr-Cu-(Pd, Pt and Au). Machine Learning MD (MLMD) is one of the
MD methods that simultaneously creates a potential using first-principles calculations and
performs MD simulations based on the potential, enabling MD simulations even for systems
where no potential exists. In this study, we performed MLMD simulations of Zr-Cu MGs doped
with noble metals to investigate the role of noble metals in the MG and quasicrystal formation
processes using VASP code [6]. Fig. 1 shows comparison of structure factors of between
experiment and simulation by MLMD, which suggests MLMD could well reproduce the
experimental structure factor for . Detailed analysis for the Zr-Cu MGs with dilute noble metals
will be shown in the workshop.

ABSTRACT

In recent years, the machine learning technique has been applied for various fields, in which the
use of machine learning is attracting attentions in materials science, since it promotes a
systematic and data-oriented approaches and provides objective findings [1]. Red phosphors have
traditionally been used as solid-state lasers and wavelength tunable lasers [2], and they have also
been used recently to control plant growth in plant factories [3]. Most of the efficient red
phosphors were made by dopings of rare-earth ions into the host materials with large band gaps
such as nitrides, oxides and fluorides. The development of red phosphors without rare earth
elements is particularly important in terms of cost and stable availability. One of the candidates
to replace rare-earth ions is 3d transition metals with d3 electron configuration, e.g., Cr3+ and
Mn4+, as luminescent centers. In this study, the luminescence properties of red phosphors are
demonstrated by machine learning technique. Predictive models for the luminescence properties,
such as emission energy and 10 Dq, of the materials doped with d3 transition metals were created
using some machine learning algorithms such as linear regression and neural network. As an
example of the current study, relationship between experimental and predicted emission energies
are plotted in Fig. 1. Detailed predictions for other optical properties will be shown on site.

ABSTRACT

Neuromorphic computation draws inspiration from the remarkable features of the human brain
including low energy consumption, parallelism, adaptivity, cognitive, and learning ability.
Therefore, considerable research attention has focused on the potential of synaptic behaviors in
optoelectronic materials as a next-generation neuromorphic material. The long persistent
luminescence (LPL) in rare earth ion doped oxides is a phenomenon in which the emission of
light persists long after the excitation source is turned off (Figure 1). Since the LPL can be
enhanced by serial photoexcitation pulses, luminescent materials utilizing long-lasting
luminescence can be used to develop light-emitting artificial synapses, or reservoir units for
reservoir computing (RC). In this work, we prepared Tb3+ and Al3+ co-doped CaSnO3
(CSO:Tb/Al) perovskite oxides that show a good LPL property under UV-excitation. To
investigate the synaptic plasticity of CSO:Tb/Al, we examined the light-emitting responses while
varying various factors, including pulse number and pulse timing. Major synaptic behaviors such
as paired-pulse facilitation, pulse number/timing dependent potentiation, and pulse
number/timing dependent short-term to long-term plasticity transition were successfully
demonstrated. Finally, using the obtained results from our CSO:Tb/Al, we evidenced the
capability of our sample as a activation function of neural network, and a reservoir layer of RC.

ABSTRACT

Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) is one of the most successful targets for the treatment of
Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Inhibition of AChE can result in preventing AD. In this context, the
machine-learning (ML) model, molecular docking, and molecular dynamics calculations were
employed to characterize the potential inhibitors for AChE from MedChemExpress (MCE)
database. The trained ML model was initially employed for estimating the inhibitory of MCE
compounds. Atomistic simulations including molecular docking and molecular dynamics
simulations were then used to confirm ML outcomes. In particular, the physical insights into the
binding process were clarified over the calculations. Two compounds, PubChem ID of
130467298 and 132020434, were indicated that they can inhibit AChE.

ABSTRACT

Protein coronas spontaneously form on the surface of nanoparticle in protein-rich biofluids,

consequently preventing ligands from binding to their cognate receptors. While most studies have
focussed on antibody and protein ligands, the protein corona is even more problematic for small
molecule ligands. This is significant as small molecule ligands are far more compatible with
upscaled nanoparticle manufacturing compared to antibody/protein ligands. Despite over 2000
publications on the topic, implementable solutions to the protein corona problem are scarce, and
inexistant for small molecule ligands. In collaboration with Cancer Diagnostic company
Ferronova, we have identified specific design-rules for the coating of iron oxide-based
nanoparticles. Specifically, precise control of copolymer composition and small molecule ligand
presentation enables excellent retention of the binding affinity even in full strength serum. This
advanced polymeric coating has now been adopted in the ongoing multicentre MAGMAP trial -
NCT05899985 clinical trial in upper gastrointestinal cancer. The presentation will also discuss
the development and preclinical validation of FerroTrace-FAPi, a novel molecular MRI agent
designed to improve the mapping on MRI of solid tumours. The Fibroblast activation protein
(FAP) is an extracellular transmembrane protein expressed on cells of the tumour
microenvironment, particularly in stromal and perivascular components. FAP has been gaining
momentum as a pan-cancer marker as (1) its overexpression often correlates with invasiveness,
and (2) it has negligible expressed in healthy tissue. To preclinically validate FerroTrace-FAPi,
its performance was tested in an orthotopic murine model of prostate cancer and compared to a
iron oxide nanoparticles targeted to the Prostate specific membrane antigen (PSMA), the current
gold standard for molecular imaging of prostate cancer. FerroTrace-FAPi provided increased
contrast relative to the PSMA nanoparticles (p<0.05), and increased accumulation was observed
on tumour tissue sections. These results suggest that FAP-targeting MNPs could enhance the
MRI of prostate tumours and assist in the delivery of precise focal treatment.

ABSTRACT

Ultra high temperature resistant ceramics based on high entropy carbides (HEC) and borides
(HEB) of transition metals combined in one dual-phase structure are presented. The new type of
microstructure promises enhanced hardness, strength and reliability. Dual-phase HEC/HEB
ceramic matrix composites based on carbides and borides of transition metals [(Ti-Zr-Nb-Ta-
Hf)C/(Ti-Zr-Nb-Ta-Hf)B2] were prepared from pure oxide powders mixed with B4C and pure
carbon. The final materials were synthesized via a boro-carbothermal reduction and sintered by
field assisted sintering (spark plasma sintering - SPS). They were characterized from the point of
view of microstructure and mechanical properties (hardness and fracture toughness), as well as
wear behavior (friction coefficient and specific wear rates) in dry sliding at various loads (5N,
10N) in a ball-on-disk configuration against an SiC ball. Fracture strength of grains and grain
boundaries were measured using micro-cantilever specimens prepared by FIB-SEM. The
developed ceramics had a very high density and relatively homogeneous chemical composition
of HEC and HEB grains with a size of HEC grains from 0.1 μm to 1.5 μm and HEB grains from
0.1 μm to 5 μm. The nanohardness of the individual HEC and HEB grains was high, with values
of 37.4 ± 2.3 GPa and 43.3 ± 2.9 GPa, respectively. The nanohardness in the vicinity of grain
boundaries was 30.0 ± 5.2 GPa. The Young’s modulus of HEC with a mean value of 536.5 ±
34.2 GPa was significantly lower in comparison to Young’s modulus for HEB grain with a mean
value of 766 ± 45.7 GPa. Vickers hardness HV1 of the whole HEC/HEB ceramics was very high,
29.4 ± 2.0 GPa, which is the highest between the up-to-now reported dual-phase high-entropy
ceramics. The developed system showed good indentation fracture resistance with a value of 3.9
± 0.62 MPa m1/2. The most significant toughening mechanism was crack branching in larger HEC
grains. Bending strength of grain/phase boundaries varied in the range of 0.9–6.7 GPa, depending
on the orientation and location of the boundaries in the beam. The fracture of carbide grains was
found to be initiated mainly on submicron size volume defects with strength values of 4.5–9.5
GPa, while the fracture origin in most boride grains was identified as surface defects introduced
by specimen preparation, which resulted in higher fracture strengths of 9.0–12.3 GPa.

ABSTRACT

Throughout history, humans have harnessed matter to perform tasks beyond their biological
limits. Initially, tools relied solely on shape and structure for functionality. We progressed to
responsive matter that reacts to external stimuli and are now challenged by adaptive matter,
which could alter its response based on environmental conditions. A major scientific goal is
creating matter that can learn, where behavior depends on both the present and its history. This
matter would have long-term memory, enabling autonomous interaction with its environment and
self-regulation of actions. We may call such matter ‘intelligent’ [1,2]. Here we introduce a
number of experiments towards ‘intelligent’ disordered nanomaterial systems, where we make
use of “material learning” to realize functionality. We have earlier shown that a ‘designless’
network of gold nanoparticles can be configured into Boolean logic gates using artificial
evolution [3]. We later demonstrated that this principle is generic and can be transferred to other
material systems. By exploiting the nonlinearity of a nanoscale network of dopants in silicon,
referred to as a dopant network processing unit (DNPU), we can significantly facilitate
handwritten digit classification [4]. An alternative material-learning approach is followed by first
mapping our DNPU on a deep-neural-network model, which allows for applying standard
machine-learning techniques in finding functionality [5]. Multi-DNPU networks can solve more
complex tasks than individual DNPUs [6,7]. Finally, we show that our devices are not only
suitable for solving static problems but can also be applied in highly efficient real-time
processing of temporal signals at room temperature [8].

ABSTRACT

Electroplating is an essential technology in various industries, where it enhances the durability

and functionality of metal or alloy surfaces. This process often integrates nanometer-sized
reinforcing materials to increase the hardness, corrosion resistance, adhesion, and other
mechanical properties of the coating. Carbon nanomaterials (CNMs), known for their high
hardness, high chemical and mechanical stability, are particularly promising as reinforcements.
In this invited presentation, we focus on optimizing the reinforcement efficiency of carbon
nanotubes (CNTs) and graphene (Gr) in nickel (Ni) and zinc-nickel (Zn-Ni) coatings. Our results
showed that Ni/CNMs coatings achieved a Vickers hardness of 273 HV, a 46% increase, and an
abrasion rate of 1.32×10-3 mm³/Nm, which is 2.24 times lower than typical coatings. In
particular, the Zn-Ni/CNMs coatings demonstrated a Vickers hardness of 221 HV, a 145%
increase, and an abrasion rate of 1.2×10 -3 mm³/nm, 7.92 times lower than standard Zn-Ni
coatings. Furthermore, CNMs-reinforced coatings exhibited improved crystal structures and
superior corrosion resistance compared to conventional coatings. These findings highlight the
significant advantages of incorporating carbon nanomaterials into metal or alloy coatings,
pointing to their great potential for applications.

ABSTRACT

The use of additive-manufactured components is increasing in jet engines. Single crystals exhibit
excellent creep resistance at high temperatures and are utilized in high-temperature components of
jet engines. However, single-crystal structure formation is difficult in laser powder bed fusion
(LPBF), the predominant process for the additive manufacturing of metallic components. In this
study, the generation of single-crystal structures of pure Ni and Ti alloys in LPBF was
demonstrated without the use of single-crystal seeds. Herein, a flat-top laser beam with a uniform
intensity distribution and a laser scan strategy featuring bidirectional scanning and 90° hatching
rotation were adopted. The optimization of process parameters in LPBF facilitated the formation
of a planar melt pool on the hatch direction (HD)–build direction (BD) plane, promoting the
epitaxial growth of <001>-oriented solidification cells parallel to and perpendicular to the BD.
This resulted in the growth of a single-crystal structure with textures of <001>∥BD and
<101>∥scan direction (SD) for pure Ni and of <001>∥BD and <100>∥SD for the β-grain structure
of Ti alloys. The fabricated single-crystal structures were heated at high temperatures; however,
recrystallization was prevented by the nature of low strain accumulation and low dislocation
density in flat-top-laser-derived objects. Moreover, the α-phase precipitated in the single-crystal β-
grain structure of a Ti alloy exhibited a predominant α variant after β annealing due to variant
selection. The α-phase, being anisotropic in creep deformation, is harder along the c axis of the
hcp lattice than perpendicular to it. We have successfully fabricated single-crystal structures with
predominantly-oriented precipitation using LPBF, expanding the design flexibility of the
microstructure and grain structure in the creep-dominant regions of high-temperature components.

ABSTRACT

Manufacturing and other materials processing technologies of steel components are associated
with the production of the significant quantities of metallic waste. The metallic scrap is melted
again to develop new metallic alloys. However, the scrap that lays in high quantity on scrapyards
is a full of great elements that can be turn into usable material for next gen technologies. Further,
development of the recycling process showed in this work is a great opportunity to secure natural
environment, natural resources (raw elements) and reduce a number of waste produced globally .
The scrap can be turned into the valuable powder to be used in Additive Manufacturing (AM)
Technologies i.e. Selective Laser Melting (SLM), Conventional Laser Cladding (CLC), High
Speed Laser Cladding (HSLC) or into the powder for high tech thermal spray processes i.e. High
Velocity Oxy Fuel. The presented results in this paper indicate that the powder made of recycling
technology, using the optimized process of scrap conversion is a great counterpart to the
commercially available powders on the market. The paper presents the selected results related to
the high temperature exposures of the materials coated with the coating made of powder from
recycled scrap together with commercially available coating. Both coatings were deposited on the
low alloyed steel, C45. The exposures were carried out in temperature higher that 600 oC for up to
1000 h in different atmospheres including steam, natural air and atmosphere containing SO 2 (0.25
% vol. in Ar). The prior and post analyses were conducted using Scanning Electron Microscope
(SEM) coupled with Energy X-ray Dispersive Spectrometry (EDS). The Phases from the surfaces
were analyzed using X-Ray Diffractometer.

ABSTRACT

Polymer-based soft solids, such as gels and elastomers, are widely recognized for their exceptional
mechanical properties, which includes substantial deformability and pronounced viscoelasticity
due to entropic effects. Understanding the fracture mechanics of these materials is crucial, as their
operational lifetime is often limited by the onset and rapid growth of cracks. Our latest research
delves into several pivotal aspects of elastomer fracture. Our investigation spans both stationary
and dynamically propagating cracks. We explore stationary cracks in various geometrical
configurations, as well as the cracks that propagate dynamically at high speeds in rubber,
potentially surpassing the material's sonic threshold. By integrating digital image correlation
(DIC) with high-speed camera recordings, we have identified marked differences in the strain
distribution around the crack tip, especially when contrasting subsonic fractures with supersonic
ones [1,2]. Further, we analyze stationary cracks in rubber under diverse biaxial stretching
conditions [3]. We explore the behavior of natural rubber from the Hevea tree, which is known to
partially crystallize under high strain, thereby enhancing its resistance to crack growth. This
behavior is examined through the combined use of 2D-scanning micro-beam Wide-Angle X-ray
Scattering (WAXS) and micro-scale DIC under microscopic observation [4]. This integrated
approach uncovers direct correlations between the orientation of the c-axis of local strain induced
crystals and the principal strain axis, as well as between local crystallinity and the magnitude of
the dominant strain in the principal strain tensor.

ABSTRACT

NR exhibits high tensile strength, toughness, and resistance to crack growth, while also being cost-
effective to produce. Such mechanical features of NR are attributed to the self-reinforcement
mechanism, which is called strain-induced crystallization (SIC). SIC is the phenomenon where
polymer chains within elastomers crystallize as they deform and align. Recent research suggests that
non-rubber components present in NR may play a role in the occurrence of SIC [1,2]. NR typically
contains around 6% impurities such as proteins, lipids, and metal ions, in addition to cis-1,4-
polyisoprene [3]. In this study, we specifically focused on the role of proteins in facilitating SIC and
investigated the mechanical properties and crystalline behavior under stretching for NR and other
rubbers with the addition of bovine serum albumin (BSA). We examined the cryo-fracture surfaces
using SEM for rubber samples mixed with BSA, which revealed that BSA existed as micro-particles.
Next, we performed DSC measurement to the effect of BSA addition for glass transition temperature
(Tg), where Tg did not change significantly with BSA addition. Further, we evaluated the
mechanical properties of rubbers with a stretching test. The results showed that BSA addition
reinforced rubbers regardless of the kind of rubbers. While Young’s modulus was proportional to the
ratio of BSA addition, the toughness increased only at a relatively higher ratio of BSA addition
(Figure 1). Finally, we analyzed the crystalline structure for rubber samples using in situ WAXS
measurement, which showed that BSA addition induced the crystallization at a smaller strain
compared with intact rubbers with no BSA addition. The detailed discussion will be shown in the
talk.

ABSTRACT

Natural rubber (NR), containing non rubber constituents such as proteins, exhibits exceptional
characteristics including high toughness, tear resistance, and wet skid resistance. Gaining a
thorough understanding of the interplay between proteins and the terminal groups of the cis-1,4-
polyisoprene chains in NR is vital for comprehending the superior properties of NR in
comparison to synthetic polyisoprene rubber. The terminal ends of the cis-1,4-polyisoprene
chains in NR encompass two distinct types of terminal groups:ω terminals andαterminals.
Extensive investigations employing solid-state NMR analysis have revealed the structures of the
ω and α terminals in NR, identifying ω as dimethyl allyl-(trans-1,4-isoprene)2 (DMA), while the
α terminals have been categorized into six types [1]. In this study, our primary focus is to explore
the interaction between phenylalanine dipeptide (PAP) and the terminal groups within six types
of melt systems (ωPIαn + P, n = 1···6, “P” stands for PAP). By utilizing equilibrated systems,
various physicalquantities were estimated, including end-to-end distance (Ree), radius of
gyration (𝑅𝑔 ), end-to-end vector autocorrelation function(𝐶(𝑡)), average rotational relaxation
time τrot, self-diffusion coefficients of polymer chains, radial distribution functions (RDFs) of
terminal groups around PAP, and the survival probability 𝑃(𝜏) for terminal groups surrounding
PAP. Analysis of 𝐶(𝑡) and 𝜏rot unveiled that PAP significantly hinders the dynamics of hydroxy-
terminated and ester-terminated polyisoprene chains in the ωPIα1-to-α6 melt systems. Examination
of RDFs demonstrated a robust association between PAP molecules and α terminals compared to
ω terminal groups. Moreover, the local density of α terminal groups around other α terminal
groups was notably reduced in the presence of PAP. The association between PAP and DMA
was found to be weaker than that of DMA and DMA, indicating a weak correlation between PAP
molecules and ω terminal groups. By employing the potentials of mean force, we conducted an
investigation to calculate the cluster formation fraction of terminal groups associated with PAP
as well as terminal groups forming clusters of various sizes in the 13 melt systems. Our findings
revealed that in the HPIH, ωPIα1, ωPIα3, and ωPIα5 systems, firm cluster formation was not observed
without PAP. However, in the presence of PAP, stable clusters comprising PAP −α1, PAP −α3,
and PAP −α5 were formed. Conversely, in the ωPIα2 + P, ωPIα4 + P, and ωPIα6 + P systems, stable
clusters involving α2 and α2, PAP and α2, α4 and α4, PAP and α4, α6 and α6, and PAP and α6
with sizes ranging from 2 to 9 were observed. These findings provide evidence for the formation
of physical junction points (PJPs) between PAP molecules and hydroxy- or ester-terminated
polyisoprene chains through their respective α1, α2, α3, α4, α5, and α6 terminals. Notably, the
formation of globular PJPs between PAP and ester terminal groups was observed, while
networked PJPs were established between PAP molecules and hydroxy terminal groups. These
PJPs are postulated to be responsible for the superior comprehensive properties exhibited by NR
in comparison to synthetic polyisoprene.

ABSTRACT

Natural rubber (NR) is a biopolymer and an important material utilized for many different kinds
of usage supporting our daily life. One of the most significant applications of NR is tire for
vehicles. Among them, the tire for aircrafts should have the highest safety and reliability to
avoid tragic accidents due to burst of the tires. To contribute to the safety and reliability of the
tire through the prevention of crack growth, strain-induced crystallization (SIC) play a very
important role [1]. Although there are a bunch of research works of the SIC, they are limited in
the case of the uniaxial elongation and very few works are available for the case of the multiaxial
elongation, which is more important to consider the realistic case of the tire deformation.
Therefore, we have studied the SIC behaviors upon the biaxial elongation of NR by measuring
the wide-angle X-ray scattering (WAXS) patterns to detect the crystalline reflection peaks at the
Japanese synchrotron facility (SPring-8).
Figure 1 displays a diagram of SIC in the plot of
the plot of strains eX and eY, found for the case of
the two-step elongation whereby the specimen was
first elongated in Y direction then it was fixed at
the elongated state. Further, it was elongated in X
direction. In the “Melting Region”, the crystal
formed in the first-step elongation in Y direction
completely melted away upon the second-step
elongation in X direction. This complexity may
stem from mismatches of the molecular chain
orientation in the amorphous phase as compared to Figure 1. Diagram of SIC in the plot of
that in the crystallites. Such situation is a eX and eY where the specimen was first
characteristic of the chain molecule, very much elongated in Y direction then it was
unusual compared to the case of low-molecular fixed at the elongated state. Further, it
weight compound. The study of SIC in the case of was elongated in X direction.
the uniaxial elongation is relevant to the complete
matching of the orientation, so that such complexity has never been found.

ABSTRACT

In response to global supply chain challenges, this study investigates the potential of high-
entropy carbides and binders as alternatives to conventional WC-Co materials in cutting tools.
Utilizing a mixture of HfC, TaC, TiC, ZrC, and NbC carbides, ultra-high-energy milling was
employed to produce fine and homogeneous carbide powders. These powders were then sintered
at 1200°C for 5 minutes, forming FCC-phase high-entropy carbides. Additionally, high-entropy
alloy binder powders comprising Fe, Ni, Cr, and Al were synthesized using gas atomization. The
carbide and binder powders were optimally blended at a milling speed of 400 rpm for 60
minutes. The resultant cylindrical sintered bodies, measuring about 10 mm in diameter and 80
mm in length, were produced with a density above 99%, demonstrating excellent mechanical
properties with a hardness of approximately 2360 Hv and fracture toughness exceeding 10
MPa/m. The microstructure and phase composition of these sintered bodies were analyzed using
FE-SEM and XRD, respectively. Furthermore, in-situ synthesis investigations were conducted to
explore the scalability of producing high-entropy carbides and binders, demonstrating the
feasibility of mass production for high-performance high-entropy-based cemented materials. This
research confirms the viability of substituting traditional WC-Co materials with high-entropy-
based materials that meet or exceed mechanical performance benchmarks.

ABSTRACT

The high entropy alloy based on FeCoNi was designed on the thermodynamic criteria, with
microstructure located in the boundary between single-phase solid solution and multiphase region.
To prepare the alloy, 300g of raw materials in correct portions is melted in a vacuum induction
furnace, then poured into a water-cooled copper mold. The as-cast microstructure is characterized
by coarse dendrites, up to 85 μm in length meanwhile the secondary arm spacing is up to 11 µm;
the SEM pictures show that it’s a pure solid solution. The interdendritic structure is eutectic-, even
spinodal-like, that is fine but unevenly dispersed, and whose proportion is about 21 %. XRD
analysis show that the alloy consists of a phase mixture: FCC + BCC + IM, that is quite close to
the thermodynamic predictions. According to the EDX analysis, the solid solution phase is of
cubic lattice and is a mixture of all constituents, that reflects the nature of high entropy alloys. The
interdendritic eutectic-like structure consists of Nb-rich phase, embedded in the solid solution. The
heat treatment observations show that the onset of precipitation is at above 755 0C via solute
redistribution to form two kinds of intermetallic phases, one of that is rich in niobium, probably
Co2Nb (Fm3m) or Fe5Nb3 (hexagonal), and the other is rich in aluminum, probably AlFe 0,23Ni0,77
(Pm3m) or Al72,5Co15Ni8,5, resulting in very high hardness, that can reach the values of 613
kgf/mm2, leading to low friction coefficient but elevated brittleness, that can be depressed by
creation of single-phase solid solution microstructure. Besides, the compressive yield strength can
reach high enough value of 1089 MPa, but decreases sharply when the anneal temperature
increases up to 1000 0C due to the plastic flow phenomenon at grain boundaries, resulting in the
appearance of deep grooves in which.

Keywords: High entropy alloy, FeCoNiAlNb alloy; microstructure, mechanical properties, heat

ABSTRACT

Developing soft magnetic materials is crucial for enhancing the efficiency of power electronics,
electrical motors, and generators. It's essential to adapt to the changing demands of modern
applications for energy conversions. Various new materials such as ferrous alloys, soft ferrites,
nanocrystalline and high entropy alloys have evolved. The main goal is to improve energy
efficiency, decrease size and weight, and increase the power of high-frequency electronics and fast
electrical machines. One subgroup of soft magnetic material are soft magnetic composites (SMC)
based on powdered ferromagnetics surrounded by an electric insulation secondary phase. Intensive
attention was paid to the geometric chemical and physical optimisation of the secondary SMC
phase as well as the size and shape of the ferromagnetic particles. Mechanical methods and
mechanochemistry play essential roles in the research development of new powdered
ferromagnetics [1]. The forecast predicts that the global flake alloy soft magnetic powder
production and trade is set for a significant transformation, characterised by strong growth fueled
by technological advancements [2]. The contribution presents modern mechanical processes based
on ball and non-ball milling, Resonant acoustic mixing and self-milling methods developed for
smoothing, coating and subsurface modifications of ferromagnetic particles.

ABSTRACT

A prototype of the large-scale resistive WEM (Well Electron Multiplier) detector with enhanced
discharge robustness was developed, produced and tested. The WEM detector is composed of a
perforated board (500 µm thick with drilled holes of 200 µm in diameter and 500 µm in pitch) and
resistive anode-readout board with high voltage copper grid on one side (500 µm in pitch and 100
µm in strip width) and readout pads on the other side (Fig. 1). The resistive anode was made by
coating the high voltage grid electrode with diamond-like carbon (DLC) resistive layer of 100 nm
thick with sheet resistance of 30 MOhm/square using Arc-PVD technique [1]. The verified
robustness of WEM detector to electrical discharges induced by highly ionizing 241Am alpha
source [2] reveals excellent potential of the DLC resistive layer for protection of small-scale
detectors while the high energy discharges still able to produce damage in case of large-scale
detectors. To improve the robustness of the large-scale WEM, we insulated the grid electrode with
a 50 μm thick microstructured insulator using a photolithography technique with parameters that
provide the best detector performance according to simulation in Comsol Multiphysics software.
Preliminary tests revealed perfect operation of the developed detector confirming the results of
math simulations. The proposed approach allows developing the robust large-area WEM detectors
for high-energy physics experiments, which simultaneously have great potential for material
sciences, medical imaging, hadron therapy and muon tomography.

ABSTRACT

Efforts aimed at refining ion transport pathways within both organic and inorganic thin films have
emerged as pivotal strategies for enhancing energy efficiency in electrochemical devices. In this
domain, our research introduces a pioneering design framework for polymer electrolytes. By
strategically leveraging liquid crystal self-assembly, we engineer continuous nanochannels
characterized by remarkable long-range order [1]. This innovative approach holds the potential to
revolutionize the development of high-performance electromechanical actuators [2,3], thereby
facilitating advancements in soft robotics and haptic interfaces. Specifically, the creation of
alignment-free 3D periodic micellar and bicontinuous cubic structures within polymer electrolytes
represents a crucial pursuit aimed at enhancing both ion transport efficiency and mechanical
modulus. We have successfully fabricated mechanically tough and highly ion-conductive micellar
cubic polymer films with Pm3̄n symmetry through
the self-assembly of a wedge-shaped vinyl
imidazolium salt and an ionic liquid, followed by in
situ photopolymerization (Fig. 1) [3]. The resulting
300 µm-thick trilayer films, composed of the cubic
polymer electrolyte sandwiched between poly(3,4-
ethylenedioxythiophene)-poly(styrenesulfonate)
electrodes, exhibit remarkable actuation capabilities:
supporting substantial loads of 4 g with a high
blocking force under a DC voltage of 2 V, achieving
a high bending strain, and a response frequency of 70
Hz. In our presentation, we will delve into
discussions on the dimensionality of ion pathways Figure 1. Soft polymer actuator based

ABSTRACT

Flexible and transparent antimicrobial touch/tactile sensors have received considerable attention
on account of their wider applicability in personal electronic devices. For electronic devices,
coated films should have an enough mechanical strength because of many touches in the case of
smart phone applications. Herein, SZO-PTFE and ZnO-PTFE composite thin films with sensorial
capabilities and high mechanical strengths are developed via a co-sputtering technique.
Mechanical strengths of the composite films were investigated via micro-indenter (Figure 1).
Their mechanical strengths showed similar results to that of the glass substrate. Elastic modulus
and hardness of the ZnO-PTFE composite films showed almost 90 GPa (that of glass: 70 GPa)
and 5.5 GPa (that of glass: 6.1 GPa), respectively. They showed a good adhesion between
composite films and glass substrate via adhesive tape test. Furthermore, the linear response of the
TENG to driven pressure indicates its excellent pressure-sensing ability, with an unprecedented
sensitivity of 75.31 V/kPa and a touch sensitivity of 31.36 V/kPa. Further, the real-time
application of ZnO-PTFE as display coating and self-powered touch sensor is demonstrated. This
work demonstrates a simple route towards the design of smart coatings with high mechanical
strengths.

ABSTRACT

Lightweight metal matrix composites (MMCs) have received great attention in modern industries
due to their outstanding properties such as low density, high strength, low coefficient of thermal
expansion, and excellent wear resistance. Powder metallurgy (PM) is commonly employed for
fabricating parts of MMCs with unique microstructures and mechanical properties. This talk
focuses on PM of lightweight MMCs including aluminium and magnesium-matrix composites.
These composites are widely utilized in the aerospace, automotive and biomedical industries. The
silicon carbide (SiC) and carbon nanomaterials (carbon nanotube, graphene) and their hybrid
materials with unique properties such as high strength, high wear resistance, and light weight were
used as reinforcement materials. The impact of process parameters, properties of the mixed powder
system, and surface treatment of reinforcements were extensively investigated to clarify the in-
depth relationship between the reinforcement features, surface treatment of reinforcements, matrix
design and the properties of the lightweight MMCs.

ABSTRACT

High-performance electromagnetic wave (EMW) absorption materials with excellent magnetic

properties, corrosion resistance, and high-temperature oxidation resistance have garnered
significant attention for mitigating microwave pollution. In this study, FeCoMnAlTix alloy powders
were synthesized using mechanical alloying method, followed by annealing at 773 K. Titanium
doping induces lattice distortion, creating numerous defects that serve as polarization sites for
dielectric loss, thereby enhancing impedance matching. By tuning Ti contents, the FeCoMnAlTix
high-entropy alloys (HEAs) achieved a maximum reflection loss (RLmax) of −40.71 dB at 8.24
GHz with a thickness of just 2.2 mm, and the bandwidth reached 4 GHz (6.96-10.96 GHz) as
depicted in Fig. 1. Additionally, the incorporation of Ti results in the formation of a passivation
film, which significantly improves corrosion resistance, making the material suitable for harsh
environments. This research provides a promising approach for developing efficient, lightweight,
and durable HEA-based EMW absorption materials.

ABSTRACT

The most widely flexible technology to enhance the corrosion resistance of metallic materials is the
use of inhibitors that could form the barrier layer to prevent corrosion attack [1-3]. To improve the
elecchochemical corrosion resistance of the copper alloy in this study, lanthanum chloride was used
as a potential inhibitor for mitigate the corrosion of copper alloy in saline environment system. The
potentiodynamic and cathodic polarizations, as well as dynamic electrochemical impedance
spectroscopy (DEIS) informed that lanthanum chloride exhibited a high inhibition performance due
to the preferably cathodic depression of electrochemical corrosion reaction. It also indicated that an
increase in lanthanum chloride concentration increased the inhibition performance up to 1.22 mM.
The high inhibition performance was attributed to the formation of the stable precipitates deposited
on the alloy surface, which was confirm by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) results
via the highest impedance values, film (Rfilm) and charge transfer (Rct) resistances, and lowest
film (CPEfilm) and double layer (CPEdl) constant phase element values. On the other hand, the
addition of lanthanum chloride concentrations was higher than 1.22 mM, the inhibition
performance was reduced due to the less vivaciousness of the lanthanum ions in the investigated
solution. The wire beam electrode also exhibited the random current density distribution of major
cathode and minor anode, resulting in the general corrosion of inhibited copper alloy surface in 0.6
M NaCl. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) showed the pock-marked copper alloy surface after
24 h corrosion in 0.6 M NaCl solution. Fortunately, film formation formed on the inhibited surfaces
with uniform distribution of an incoporation of copper and lanthanum oxides/hydroxides obtained
by energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS). X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) also
suggested that the 3d orbital lanthanum in the form of both oxides and hydroxides existed and
cooperated with copper oxides and hydroxides in the precipitates as the barrier layer deposited on
the alloy surface to improved corrosion. Therefore, the work suggests an inorganic compound as a
greatly potential inhibitor to mitigate the electrochemical corrosion of copper alloys.

Keywords: copper; corrosion inhibitor; lanthanum chloride; barrier layer; localized inhibition.

ABSTRACT

Recently, metamaterials (MMs), a captivating field of research, have revolutionized multiple

domains of science and technology. A significant challenge in the recent development of MMs is
the extension of absorption/transmission bandwidth, particularly towards higher frequencies.
Researchers have developed several strategies to overcome this challenge including the design of
MM structures with multiple resonant modes or using the multilayered structures with varying
materials and external impacts. These approaches lead to a gradient of effective permittivity and
permeability, resulting in an enhanced absorption/transision bandwidth. In this report, by
exploiting integated MM structures, the perfect absorption/negative refractive index properties
can be controlled effectively. The obtained results could potentially contribute to the
development of GHz/THz applications, paving the way for promising groundbreaking
technologies and devices. Also, this report particularly focuses on a new generation of emitters
(MIRS) involving the integration of microheaters and advanced MMs. In this model, the
radiation intensity can be effectively manipulated through the quantity of heating energy
generated by the microheater. This hybrid MM can be integrated in high-sensitivity gas sensors,
making it suitable for future applications in the high-technology farming.

ABSTRACT

Tantalum metal, known for its high melting point, ductility, and corrosion resistance, is frequently
utilized as an alloying element in the defense industry for manufacturing superalloys used in jet
engines, missiles, and other defense applications. Additionally, its high electrical conductivity
makes it a sought-after material in the electronics industry for capacitor manufacturing. Therefore,
preliminary research to secure high-purity tantalum feedstock is essential in industries relying on
components or materials containing tantalum. Typically, tantalum metal is produced through the
reduction of its oxide. Due to the high thermodynamic stability of tantalum oxide, conventional
reduction using carbon or hydrogen is often not feasible. Hence, many studies resort to the use of
metal reducing agents such as calcium, magnesium, or aluminum. In this study, we applied a
magnesium reduction process and investigated the differences in reduction behavior depending on
the initial oxide particle size (0.3 μm, 1.2 μm) and reduction temperature (1073K~1273K). X-ray
analysis of the powder obtained after reduction revealed that regardless of the initial particle size, a
distinct peak corresponding to pure tantalum was obtained at temperatures above 1123K,
indicating successful reduction. Furthermore, oxygen analysis of the powders obtained over the
entire temperature range showed that reduction was more facile with finer particles (0.3 μm). This
particle size-dependent reduction behavior was attributed to the difference in activation energy for
reduction (0.3 μm = 5.234 J/mol, 1.2 μm = 5.917 J/mol). Moreover, the oxygen content of the
powders obtained at the optimum reduction temperature of 1273K was found to be 0.88wt.% for
0.3 μm particles and 0.66wt.% for 1.2 μm particles, indicating that the difference stemmed from
the particle size (specific surface area) after reduction.

ABSTRACT

To date, investigations of strain-induced crystallization are out of reach for most mechanical
laboratories due to costly X-ray diffraction facilities. Making use of the exothermic nature of such
phase transition, infrared thermography based quantitative surface calorimetry has provided an
alternative approach to investigate strain-induced crystallinity in conventional mechanical
laboratories, see e.g. [1, 2]. Moreover, this calorimetric approach provides continuum quantities of
interest for enriching and/or validating constitutive models. Nevertheless, its application has been
confined to the evaluation of crystallinity under only the loading case. In this contribution, strain-
induced crystallization is investigated in various types of natural rubbers by coupling data analysis
with domain knowledge of thermodynamics. It pushes the boundaries of the current quantitative
surface calorimetry methodology to explore not only the crystallinity during loading-unloading
cycles but also different compositions of the internal energy. This discovery enables more
comprehensive understanding of strain-induced crystallization, a perspective not attainable through
any other data acquisition technique.

ABSTRACT

Natural rubber (NR, cis 1-4, polyisoprene) is the most widely adopted bio-sourced polymer in
rubber industry. One of the most significant features of NR is strain induced crystallization (SIC)
resulting superb physical properties, especially high fracture toughness compared to amorphous
rubbers. Fracture toughness of rubber can be explained utilizing fracture mechanics approach base
on energy release rate (G) and it is well known that G is strongly associated with viscoelastic
energy dissipation. However, mechanical strength of NR is governed by not only viscoelastic
energy dissipation but also the SIC effect. This indicates that the experimentally measured strength
of NR is sum of two components, one is viscoelastic component G-VE and the other is SIC
component G-SIC. It should be noted here that the G-SIC has a threshold condition to be generated as
SIC is the kinetic phenomena. In another word, fracture toughness of NR shows transition between
governed by SIC and merely by viscoelastic energy dissipation at certain temperature and strain
rate. It is clearly important to quantitatively determine G-SIC and G-VE separately and fully
understand the threshold condition but was not fully investigated and elucidated. NR shows abrupt
fall of fracture energy, Wb, at critical initial crack lengths, co*, in single side pre-notched tensile
specimen. The mechanism of this abrupt fall is thought to be the change in fracture process from a
cyclic crack growth process to catastrophic tearing. We focused on this failure mechanism
transition to quantitatively determine G-SIC and the threshold condition. Newly established G-SIC
evaluation methodology [1] will be reported.

ABSTRACT

Stress-softening in materials manifests as a significant reduction in stress response following prior

deformation. This phenomenon is prevalent in diverse materials, ranging from soft polymer composites
and biopolymer hydrogels to hard shape-memory alloys [1]. Notably, filler-reinforced elastomers
demonstrate pronounced stress-softening, often referred to as the Mullins effect [2]. The microscopic
origins of stress-softening are attributable to the disintegration of inherent structures such as filler-filler
networks and filler-polymer interfaces. Carbon-black (CB) filled elastomers, which exhibit finite
electrical conductivity due to percolated CB networks at high filler contents, are particularly sensitive
to changes in electrical resistivity (). Variations in  during deformation are indicative of the ongoing
breakdown of CB aggregates and network structures. While most studies have focused on uniaxial
extensions, this study explores the stress-softening in CB-filled elastomers under various biaxial
stretching conditions, utilizing a combination of stress and electrical resistivity measurements. We
present data [3] on dissipated energy and surface electrical resistivity to elucidate the effects of strain
biaxiality on both internal mechanical damage and the disruption of CB connectivity (Fig. 1). These
findings contribute to a deeper understanding of the stress-softening effect in elastomer/filler
composites under multiaxial deformations.

ABSTRACT

This study investigates the impact of aging time on the microstructure and mechanical properties of
welded joints between Ti-6Al-4V and Ti-CP. The welds were subjected to different aging
treatments: annealing at 900°C for 2 hours followed by furnace cooling, quenching at 900°C for 2
hours followed by water cooling, and aging at temperatures ranging from 525°C for 0.65 hours to
7.4 hours followed by air cooling. Hardness measurements were taken across the weld interface,
revealing variations between the base metal Ti and the welded area. At an aging temperature of
525°C for 4 hours, the highest strength value obtained was 427.5 N/mm² with a relative elongation
of 25%. The aging process led to changes in the shape and distribution of α and β phases,
influencing the mechanical properties of the alloy. Additionally, the distribution of alloying
elements V and Al in the α and β phases during heat treatment played a significant role in
strengthening the alloy and the weld.

ABSTRACT

Direct Energy Deposition (DED) is one of the main methods of additive manufacturing, alongside
Powder Bed Fusion (PBF). Fast solidification rate in DED results in the cell structure [1] decorated
by dislocations [2] and microsegregation [3] on the cell boundaries, which lead strengthening
effects. DED has several advantages compared to PBF, such as rapid manufacturing and the ability
to accommodate various substrate shapes, including inclined surfaces [4]. Considering the freedom
of substrate shape, DED can be used for laser welding with powder filler material. Through precise
control of tool path, filler metal composition, and process condition such as laser power, it is
possible to manipulate the composition of fusion zone, microstructure and mechanical properties.

Figure 1. Stress-strain curve of Fe-SMA and schematic of welding process using DED.

In this study, Fe-SMA (Fe – 17Mn – 5Si – 10Cr – 4Ni – 0.7V – 0.3C) plates are welded with high
manganese steel powder made of nominal composition of Fe - 24Mn - 4Cr – 0.4C using DED. The
end of 3 mm thick Fe-SMA plate was machined with 45° against the surface normal direction and
deposited high manganese steel between inclined surfaces. Scan speed, layer thickness and
shielding gas (Ar) flow rate are fixed at values of 840 mm/min, 0.15 mm, and 3 L/min respectively.
We set the laser power to 150 W, 200 W, 250 W, and 300 W to explore appropriate welding
condition. Afterward, the tensile strength, microhardness and microstructure of weldment were
observed. Crack free interface between fusion zone and base metal was obtained at 150 W, which
exhibited 996.8 MPa of tensile strength (17 MPa higher than the base metal) and 23.24 % of
elongation to fracture (Fig.1). Additionally, microhardness obtained from HAZ was higher at 150
W compared to the other laser power conditions. The other laser power condition exhibited lower
tensile strength and elongation due to crack and pore between fusion zone and base metal. As a
result, laser power 150 W was determined to be the optimum welding condition. Recovery stress

values of specimen fabricated under 150 W was measured and it was compared with that of base
material. Microstructure was also observed using Energy Dispersive Spectrometer (EDS) and
Electron Backscatter Diffraction (EBSD) to determine the effect of fusion zone in welded
specimen.

ABSTRACT

The AlCu system in the form of a thin film is usually only investigated in cases of low alloying
concentrations. By applying a combinatorial approach [1], 15 different Al 1-xCux, 1.7 𝜇m thick
films covering the entire compositional range (0≤x≤1) were deposited on a single Si substrate by
DC magnetron sputtering. Results of nanoindentation measurements [2] (Figure 1a,b) have shown
that the films exhibit remarkably high strength, with hardness reaching ~ 16 GPa at ~50 at% Cu
content. In addition, other interesting mechanical phenomena were observed, showing i) the
presence of discontinuous, step-like indentation curves around ~ 50 at% Cu content and ii) the
characteristic appearance of the indentation size effect (ISE) observed only for ~ 40-70 at% Cu
contents. At low alloying concentrations, however, the sample is not sensitive to ISE. In order to
better understand these phenomena, comprehensive TEM studies were performed on the cross-
sectional lamellae of the as-deposited layers, as well as on the lamellae extracted from the
indentation imprints. Figure 1c shows bright field overview images, where the evolution of the
morphology of the layers with increasing Cu content can be observed.

alloying concentrations at 50 mN maximal load. b) Indentation hardness as a function of alloying
concentration for different maximal loads. c) Bright field cross-sectional TEM images of
Al1-xCux films.
The structural analysis results provide a good explanation of the variation in hardness as a function
of composition. The exceptionally high strength is due to the very fine grain size and the presence
of non-equilibrium phases. In the deformed layer containing 52 at% Cu, deformation bands are
observed, indicating amorphous-like deformation consistent with the observed discontinuous
indentation curve. The sample provides an excellent opportunity to speculate on the processes

underlying the ISE phenomenon. There are indications that the disappearance of the ISE at lower
concentration, in pure Al and pure Cu films, corresponds to the more pronounced grain boundary
sliding at lower alloying concentrations.

ABSTRACT

Thermal plasma technology is an innovative approach used in material science and

nanotechnology for fabricating nano materials. By generating and utilizing high-temperature
plasma, which is highly ionized gases, this technology allows the synthesis and manipulation of
nano materials in chemical composition and physical morphology. Unlike combustion process,
thermal plasma is generated in an oxygen-free environment with the temperatures reaching several
thousand degrees Celsius, thus, creating an ideal environment for producing nano materials, such
as nanoparticles, nanowires, and nanotubes, through a process of vaporization, nucleation,
condensation and coagulation. Importantly, thermal plasma technology also exhibits highly
environmental friendly by avoiding the use of toxic chemicals typically employed in conventional
chemical methods. Moreover, it offers the capability for large-scale production, making it suitable
for industrial applications.

In this work, we developed the processes utilizing thermal plasma technology to fabricate various
nano materials including nano carbon, nano copper, nano silicon, nano aluminium, nano silicon
dioxide, nano wolfram oxide. The process is both environmental friendly and capable of producing
kilogram quantities of nano powder per batch. The morphology and optical properties of the
obtained nano powders are characterized to study their dependence on fabrication conditions
including input materials, plasma power and feeding rate.

ABSTRACT

With the proliferation of electronic devices and the advent of 5G technology, electromagnetic
pollution poses a significant radiation challenge in modern society. Effective microwave-absorbing
materials offer a potential solution to mitigate this issue, with spinel ferrite emerging as a
promising candidate. This study investigates the microwave absorption capabilities of
Ni0.4Cu0.2Zn0.2Fe2O4 (NCZF) samples across varying annealing temperatures (Tan), presenting
novel findings. Increasing Tan from 900 to 1000 °C enhances the complex permittivity and
permeability of the samples, thereby boosting their dielectric and magnetic loss properties.
Consequently, microwave absorption performance, as indicated by reflection loss (RL), effective
absorption area, and effective absorption bandwidth (EAB), improves with Tan. For instance, at a
thickness of 2.50 mm, NCZF-900 achieves an RL of –13.85 dB, whereas NCZF-950 and NCZF-
1000 attain RL values of –17.73 dB and –22.04 dB, respectively, at 2.25 mm thickness. Moreover,
thicker NCZF samples exhibit dual-absorption characteristics in the C and Ku bands. NCZF-900
demonstrates a notable RL value of –34.28 dB in the Ku band for a thickness of 7.00 mm, while
NCZF-1000 exhibits an RL value of –27.94 dB in the C band for 6.00 mm thickness. Notably,
NCZF-950 displays favorable RL values of –15.82 dB and –18.10 dB in the C and Ku bands,
respectively, at 6.00 mm thickness. Additionally, these samples demonstrate promising EAB
values of 5.28 GHz, 5.90 GHz, and 5.36 GHz for NCZF-900, NCZF-950, and NCZF-1000,
respectively. The observed dual-band microwave absorption performance of NCZF samples is
attributed to their favorable impedance matching, attenuation constant, and eddy current loss
characteristics.

ABSTRACT

Bulk metallic glasses represent a new class of structural materials with many outstanding properties
such as high yield strength and large elastic limit, along with a number of superior chemical and
physical properties. Despite such high strength levels of the BMGs, they exhibit the lack of the
tensile ductility and unpredictable catastrophic failure during room temperature deformation.
Therefore, the extensive spread of applications as structural materials has been strictly limited.
Recently, as another effort to exploit BMGs in engineering field, new attempts for application of
BMGs have been carried out in functional materials. In general, BMGs consist of three or more
elements and have a highly disordered atomic configuration of constituent elements. It is expected
that the intrinsic characteristics of BMGs could be effectively contributed to the uniform formation
of metal oxide because there is no segregation of atoms, when BMGs are used as a precursor to
fabricate metal oxides using hydrothermal technique. For these reasons, in this study the BMG is
selected as a precursor and treated to synthesis metal oxide on the surface by means of
hydrothermal technique. It is known that most of metal oxides have functional application. This
finding suggests that BMGs with hydrothermal technique can be attractive for the practical
technology as a new area of structural and functional materials. And they provide a promising map
for using the metallic glasses as a potential functional application.

ABSTRACT

In this study, the improvement in the electrical properties of the BaZrO3-modified (K,Na)NbO3 lead-
free ceramics was prepared using two-step sintering technique. The influence of BaZrO3 content on the
structure, microstructure and physical properties of the (K0.48Na0.48Li0.04)(Nb0.95Sb0.05)O3 ceramic system
has been studied in detail. Experimental results showed that BaZrO3 content significantly influenced the
structural phase transition of (K0.48Na0.48Li0.04)(Nb0.95Sb0.05)O3 ceramics in the investigated BaZrO3
concentration range of 0 - 0.04 mol. The crystal structure of KNNST transforms from the orthorhombic
phase to a mixed phase with an increase in the BaZrO3 content. Besides, good physical, dielectric,
ferroelectric, and piezoelectric properties were recorded for the BaZrO3-modified
(K0.48Na0.48Li0.04)(Nb0.95Sb0.05)O3 ceramics when the BaZrO3 concentration was 0.02 mol.

ABSTRACT

In this study, the sintering temperature of the 0.97[Pb0.94Sr0.05La0.01)(Zr0.54Ti0.46)O3]–

0.024[Bi(Mn1/2Ti1/2)O3]–0.006[Pb(Mn1/3Sb2/3)O3] + 0.06 wt.% Li2CO3 ceramics have been
fabricated by the conventional solid-state reaction method. Experimental results show the Li2CO3
improved the sintering behavior and electrical properties of the ceramics. With content of 0.6
wt.% Li2CO3, the sintering temperature of the ceramic was reduced from 1150 C to 1000 C. The
optimal sintering temperature for the Li2CO3 doped TH3 material ceramics is 1000 oC. At this
sintering temperature, the ceramics has the best dielectric, piezoelectric and ferroelectric
properties (kp = 0.60, d33 = 425 pC/N, and the mechanical quality factor (Qm) of 1250). At the
sintering temperature of 1000 oC, dielectric and piezoelectric properties of ceramics are best: the
electromechanical coupling factor (kp) of 0.60, the piezoelectric factor (d33) of 425, the dielectric
loss (tan) of 0.004, the mechanical quality factor (Qm) of 1250.

ABSTRACT

In nowadays, efforts are being made to improve heat resistance due to thermal shock by imparting
residual compressive stress to the surface of molds used in die casting. For this purpose, processes
such as blasting, nitriding and coating are applied to the surface. However, surface-treated
products face the limit of their lifetime as the mold usage environment becomes harsher. In this
study, a surface treatment process with excellent thermal properties was applied to solve this
problems. Thermal fatigue characteristics were conducted by thermal fatigue testing equipment. As
a result, it was confirmed that the thermal fatigue life was improved by more than 50% compared
to the existing surface treatment products.

ABSTRACT

Commercial AA1070 alloy for electrical wire is severely deformed by the drawing process when a
rod with a diameter of 2 mm is greatly reduced to 0.4 mm by multi-pass and subsequently
annealed. Changes in the microstructure and mechanical properties of the Al alloy with increasing
the annealing temperature were investigated in detail. The as-drawn Al wires showed a severely
deformed structure in which the grains are greatly elongated in the drawing direction and a
deformation texture that the fiber texture as {110}<111> and {112}<111> components strongly
develops. The hardness tended to decrease with increasing the annealing temperature due to
softening phenomenon. In particular, an increase of the annealing temperature to 300℃ resulted in
a great decrease in hardness. The strength also tended to decrease as the annealing temperature
increased, very similar to the change in hardness. However, the tensile elongation showed a rapid
increase at annealing temperatures above 275℃. Relationship between strength and microstructure
of the AA1070 alloy severely deformed by wire drawing and subsequently annealed is discussed.

ABSTRACT

Manufactured cellular materials, like polyurethane, ceramic, or metallic foams, are a very alluring
choice because they are designed for a variety of uses in both daily life and industry (i.e.,
reinforced lightweight structures, packaging, and energy absorption systems). To innovate in
material development, it is crucial to gain deeper insights into how foam deformation mechanisms
operate. This work introduces a micromechanical approach to evaluate the overall behavior of
three-dimensional open-cell solid foams. It relies on the material characteristics of the solid phase
and the arrangement of the cell structure. Based on linear elasticity and isotropic assumptions, the
effective elastic constants for open-cell foams are determined as functions of foam relative density
by multi-scale computational homogenization techniques. The obtained results are compared with
existing results for analysis and validation (Figure 1). The proposed framework enables the design
and production of novel foam materials tailored to specific needs.

ABSTRACT

In this study, titanium-boron nitride nanosheet (Ti/BNNS) composite material was successfully
fabricated using the pulsed plasma sintering method. BNNSs were exfoliated and functionalized
from bulk hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) using hydroxide-assisted ball milling. The exfoliated
BNNSs were used as a nanoadditive to reinforce the titanium metal matrix. The pulsed plasma
sintering method was carried out under a pressure of 30 MPa at temperatures of 800°C and 900°C.
The experimental results showed that BNNSs altered the microstructure of the titanium metal
matrix through the formation of the TiN phase. Structural characterizations and mechanical
properties of the Ti/BNNS composite will be elaborately investigated and presented.

ABSTRACT

Recently the vehicles being developed generate more heat as their performance increases, and
widespread research is being done to control this heat and achieve optimal performance. Thermal
management is especially important in green cars, as high-performance electronics not only
generate heat, but also have a significant impact on mileage. Integrated thermal management
systems that use liquid coolants, such as water or oil, to effectively manage temperature are
becoming increasingly common [1]. The use of liquid coolants requires improved corrosion
resistance of automotive components. The commonly used A383 aluminum die-casting alloy is
known to have poor corrosion resistance, which requires the development of improved alloys. In
this study, we aimed to improve the corrosion resistance of Al-Si based die-casting alloys based on
A383 alloy. In addition, two alloys with different magnesium contents were designed to observe
the effect of magnesium content on mechanical properties and corrosion resistance. The results of
this study can contribute to the development of advanced aluminum alloys for automotive
applications, especially with respect to electric vehicles and thermal management requirements.

ABSTRACT

Cu nanoparticles (CuNPs) are well-known for its abundance and applications in infrared
technologies. Thermal plasma is an effective method to fabrication kilograms of nano copper per
day. A comprehensive study to fully understand the infrared properties of the nano copper
fabricated by this method is still not available. In this work, the obtained CuNPs went through a
hydrogen furnace at 200 ~ 300oC to remove the outer oxidized layer. Effect of the reduction
process on the structure and infrared properties of the CuNPs are thoroughly studied by SEM,
FTIR and infrared emission measurements (Figure 1). The results can be greatly contributed for
further applications of CuNPs such as infrared thermal camouflage.

ABSTRACT

Al-Mg based alloys standardized in the 5000 series are widely used in various applications due to
their good corrosion resistance and weldability. Mg as the main alloying element has a great
tendency to be oxidized even when it is alloyed in Al base metal. Al-Mg based alloys include β-
Al3Mg2 phase by eutectic reaction during solidification. However, β-Al3Mg2 phase in grain
boundaries is preferentially oxidized and strongly affect the oxidation behavior of matrix at high
temperatures even in solid state. Therefore, the oxidation of β-Al3Mg2 phase can lead to
continuous oxidation along the grain boundaries. The β-Al3Mg2 phase particles in the base metal
also caused the internal oxidation during a long time exposure to oxidation environments.
Researches on the oxidation of Al-Mg alloys have been reported in various literatures. In general,
phase analysis for oxide scale based on crystallographic information has been done using X-ray
diffraction and transmission electron microscope. However, it is difficult to image the entire oxide
scale based on constituent oxide phases using the above analysis techniques. The complex
structures of the oxide scale on the Al-Mg alloys makes the analysis of the scale microstructures
difficult as the oxide phases cannot be easily identified. In previous studies [1,2], electron back-
scatter diffraction (EBSD) has been used to identify the phases within the oxide scale. The aim of
this study is to investigate the oxide scale behavior of Al-Mg alloys using EBSD technique. This
presentation deals mainly with the internal oxidation in the base metals based on the results of
EBSD.

ABSTRACT

Titanium is a transition metal with low density, high strength, and excellent corrosion resistance.
Titanium and its alloys have use in several industries like aerospace, automotive, electrical,
medical, healthcare, etc… In order to improve the properties for special applications, titanium
matrix composites have been developed by adding some kind of reinforcements. The availability
of a wide variety of reinforcing materials and the development of new processing techniques are
attracting interest in the Ti matrix composites. The unique characteristics and properties of
nanoreinforcement materials make them very attractive for incorporation into host materials,
possibly leading to novel composites with enhanced mechanical, electrical and thermal properties.
The aim of this work is to fabricate and characterize of carbon nanomaterials (CNT, Gr) reinforced
Ti alloy matrix composites with two main issues: (i) the development of fabrication process of Ti
alloy matrix composites with high performance for targeted applications (ii) Understanding the
strengthening mechanisms of the produced composites by establishing the correlation between
microstructure and mechanical properties, such as hardness, tensile strength, and wear resistance.

ABSTRACT

Because of the high hardness, strength, ductility, and excellent casting ability, ductile cast irons
are widely used in manufacturing the complex automotive and machine parts. GCD (Gray cast
iron) 700 as one of widely used spherical graphite cast irons is of considerable interest due to its
excellent strength and machinability. High temperature oxidation behavior of cast iron is
considered to be different from low carbon steel because it contains higher carbon leading to
graphite distribution in the matrix. Above 400°C, graphite is not stable and easily oxidized in an
air atmosphere. Oxidized graphite forms pores and/or cracks, allowing oxygen inward penetration
resulting in further oxidation. Therefore, it is thought that the high temperature oxidation
resistance of cast iron can be affected by the graphite morphology. Additionally, the presence of
alloying elements surrounding graphite particles may also be involved in the oxidation. In a
previous study [1], it was reported that a small and bright phase particle containing a large amount
of Cu was found at the interface of the graphite and matrix in a GCD with 3mass%Cu. Cu is a
most used element to achieve a fully pearlitic microstructure. Thus, this study investigated the role
of Cu segregation during the oxidation of graphite in an oxidizing atmosphere. Isothermal
oxidation behavior of GCD700 with a different amount of Cu between 400 and 700°C under an
ambient atmosphere was observed. The oxidation reaction was predicted based on an examination
of oxides that could be formed through calculated phase diagrams. Effects of graphite distribution
and cu segregation on the high temperature oxidation of cast iron will be discussed in the
presentation.

In this work, TiNbVCr0.5 and TiNbVCr0.5Zr0.5 high entropy alloys were fabricated by the vacuum
arc melting route. The XRD results revealed that the TiNbVCr 0.5 alloy had a single body-centered-
cubic (BCC) solid solution; meanwhile, the TiNbVCr 0.5Zr0.5 alloy contained the main BCC phase
and a minor C14 Laves phase. Both alloys have typical dendrite structure of as-cast state. The
addition of Zr in TiNbVCr0.5Zr0.5 led to the increase of Vickers hardness (275.9 HV10) in
comparison with TiNbVCr0.5 (264.3 HV10) which could be due to the formation of C14 Laves
phase. However, the formation of C14 Laves phase may be also the reason for the lower of the
ultimate strength and fracture strain (by compression test) of TiNbVCr 0.5Zr0.5 compared to those of
TiNbVCr0.5 alloy.

ABSTRACT

Microstructure and mechanical properties of an AA1050/AA6061 layered sheets fabricated by

cold roll-bonding (CRB) are investigated in detail. An annealed AA6061 and 50% cold-rolled
AA1050 sheet with a thickness of 1 mm are stacked to each other, and roll-bonded by multi-pass
cold rolling. The roll-bonded Al sheet is then annealed for 1h at various temperatures of 200 to
400℃. The as roll-bonded Al sheet showed a typical deformation structure that the grains are
elongated to the rolling direction in all regions. However, after annealing treatment, the Al sheet
had a recrystallization structure consisting of the coarse grains in both AA1050 and AA6061
regions in which the grain size is different to each other. The tensile strength of 350℃ specimen is
slightly higher than that of 300℃ one. The specimen annealed at 350℃, among all experimental
conditions, showed promising mechanical properties in viewpoint of balance of strength and
ductility.

ABSTRACT

In recent, aluminum (Al) alloys have been extensively studied because of their benefits including
medium strength, good formability, high electrical conductivity and light weight. It is expected
that substituting Al alloys for high density alloys, such as steels and copper alloys will result in
great improvements in energy economy, recyclability and life-cycle cost. However, in Al alloys,
the low strength, poor workability must be improved for further applications. Accordingly, lots of
research are still needed to develop unique Al alloys to further enhance properties such as strength,
plastic workability for automotive and energy industry. In this study, a newly designed Al alloy
was forged at various experimental conditions including material temperature, preheating time and
forging pressure. The mechanical properties and microstructure of all forged specimens were
investigated in detail, to find out the best forging condition. Relationship between mechanical
properties and microstructure is discussed.

ABSTRACT

Diamond back-grinding wheels are a critical component in the semiconductor manufacturing

process, specifically designed for thinning silicon wafers. These wheels are essential to ensure that
wafers achieve the thickness and quality required for high performance electronic devices. The
back-grinding process is a critical step that has a direct impact on the yield and reliability of
semiconductor devices. Diamond back-grinding wheels must have the following characteristics: a
material composition that can efficiently grind brittle silicon without excessive wear, precision and
uniformity to maintain the integrity of the wafer microstructure, a design that causes little
subsurface damage, and the ability to remove material quickly to speed up the production process.
They are available in a variety of configurations, including different diamond grit sizes, bond
types and porosities to meet different polishing requirements and equipment setups. Among the
bond types - metal, resin and vitrified - vitrified bonds are characterized by high Young's modulus,
low fracture toughness and large pore formation, which enhances the self-dressing capability of
the wheels [1]. In this study, we propose a controlled process to achieve optimal pore size and
distribution by reducing the contact area and improving coolant flow through the pores, thereby
minimizing frictional heat generation during grinding. We aim to densify the vitrified bond by
sintering to achieve a balance between chip removal capability and cooling performance. In
addition, we propose to improve the pore distribution by surface charge modification of pore
fillers and diamonds (as shown in Figure 1) and to control the bond strength by using a low
melting vitreous bond.

the Zeta potential with different additive amount.

ABSTRACT

In engineering applications, especially cutting tools, coatings are applied to improve tool life and
performance. Most tool coating research focuses on TiN or TiAlN single-layer coatings, as well as
multilayer/nanolayer structured TiAlN and TiN/AlTiN coatings. A nanocomposite coating is a
coating that exhibits excellent wear resistance and heat resistance properties, and its composition
can be designed according to the user's environment. In particular, when applied to tool coatings,
it can significantly increase cutting speed by reducing the temperature of the cutting area and the
wear rate of the tool, and improve productivity and efficiency. In this study, an Al-based
nanocomposite coating with excellent wear and heat resistance properties was designed and
deposited as a single alloy target for tool coating applications. The properties of the deposited
nanocomposite coating were compared and analyzed with the AlCrN coating applied as a tool
coating. The nanocomposite coating was deposited in an Ar:N 2 mixed gas atmosphere using
magnetron sputtering, and its properties were compared with existing coatings through SEM,
XRD, nano-indentation, and friction wear tests.

ABSTRACT

Thermal plasma is a method for generating very high temperatures (3000-6000°C) by ionizing
gases through high-power electric current. In this process, precursor materials, upon contact with
the thermal plasma, undergo immediate combustion and vaporization, followed by condensation
leading to the growth of nano-sized particles. Cu nanoparticles (CuNPs) are particularly attractive
because of copper’s high natural abundance and low cost. Recently, Cu-based nanocatalysts have
found many applications in nanotechnology, including catalytic CO 2 reduction, organic
transformations, electrocatalysis, and photocatalysis. In this study, we successfully synthesized
CuNPs using the DC plasma method, employing three DC plasma jets simultaneously vaporizing
raw Cu powder input, which has size of 1 to 10 µm. The synthesis process was optimized by
investigating the effects of various conditions including input materials, plasma power and feeding
rate. The process is both environmental friendly and capable of producing kilogram quantities of
nano powder per batch.

ABSTRACT

Phase change materials (PCMs) are extensively used in thermal energy storage solutions. PCMs
are added into heat reagents that consist mostly of iron powders to manage the exothermal
reaction-induced heat. In this study, microencapsulation of these PCMs is essential for their
successful use. The effectiveness of PCMs was enhanced thanks to being microencapsulated in
vermiculite minerals in advance. By selecting the optimized parameters of vermiculite porosity,
the size of iron powders, activated carbons, and their mixing ratio, authors could manufacture the
heat reagent with good performance. When the heat reagent with the microencapsulated PCMs
was in contact with the ambient atmosphere, iron oxidation reactions occurred. The added PCMs
endotherm the heat and managed the heat reagent stable at a good temperature of about 40°C for
more than 10 hours. The heat reagent with microencapsulated PCMs developed in this study has
great promise in hot pad applications.

ABSTRACT

MAPbI3 perovskites with various morphologies have attracted much attention due to their unique
photophysical properties. It is still challenging to control the morphology and structure of
nanocrystalline perovskite to maximize its photoelectric usage. In this work, the nanowires and
microcubes of MAPbI3 perovskite were synthesized via the drop-casting method. The baking
condition of the PbAc2 film used for drop-casting was found to have a profound effect on the
morphology of the MAPbI3 perovskite film. The structure and morphology of the as-synthesized
material were confirmed by field emission scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction
spectroscopy. Finally, a mechanism describing film formation and growth nanostructures in the
films is also proposed in detail.

Keywords: MAPbI3, drop-casting, nanowires, microcubes.

ABSTRACT

Soft magnetic composites (SMC) are materials based on powdered soft ferromagnetics
surrounded by an electrical insulation secondary phase. The dielectric secondary phase regularly
distributed on ferromagnetic particles after powder consolidation creates an effective barrier for
inter-particle eddy currents through a continual electric insulation network. The subject of the
study is SMC consisting of pure Fe micro-particles coated with 30 nm nanoparticles of MgO
dielectric ceramic. The key factor influencing the functional properties of the composite is the
local microstructure in interphase ferromagnetics/dielectrics regions. The development of the
microstructure can be modified by the pressing pressure and the heat treatment atmosphere if the
particle size and temperature and holding time are constant. Uniaxial pressing pressure from 600
to 1250 MPa was applied for the production of ring-shaped green compacts. Heat treatment was
realised in different atmospheres (Ar/O2, N2, dry air) to reveal the influence of oxygen content in
processing gas on the microstructure and properties of SMC. The magnetic properties were
evaluated based on analysis of the real and imaginary parts of the complex permeability. The
density, coercivity, DC permeability, AC permeability and resonant frequency were studied
depending on the pressing pressure and heat treatment atmosphere. The role of oxygen and
density/porosity is discussed in the context of the microstructure of the interphases and induced
magnetic properties.

ABSTRACT

Additive manufacturing (AM) is an advanced technology used for the manufacture of products
that have intricate shapes and complex inner geometries. In commercial metallic material field,
various metallic materials have been investigated to use AM processing. The microstructural
features such as grain size and precipitates will differ profoundly from those obtained by casting,
heat treatment and forming processing, which is resulted from the rapid heating and cooling rates
during AM. Therefore, the evolution in microstructure of metallic materials fabricated AM can
give an opportunity to discovery the enhanced mechanical properties of the metallic materials. In
this study, the maraging steel powder with mean particle radius of 36 μm have been used in AM
experiment. To achieve optimized AM condition, the specimens with bulk cuboidal shape were
fabricated with the various laser power and scanning rate. With the increase of laser power and
scanning rate, the higher energy density was applied to the powders during AM. The all as-built
specimens were composed of α' martensite phase in applied AM condition. The density of as-
built specimens increased from 7.1 to 8.03 g/cm 3, which is almost similar to the full density of
maraging steel. In microstructural investigation, the micro pores with size of 10-100 μm were
found in low energy density than 73 J/mm 3 in all scanning rate conditions. On the other hand, the
as-built specimens printed with higher energy density than 75 J/mm 3 exhibited full dense
microstructure with grain size of 200 nm ~ 1 μm. The Mechanical properties of as-built
specimens were determined by micro-Vickers hardness test and compressive test. All specimens
exhibited similar Vickers hardness, but the yield strength drastically increases from 606 MPa to
1138 MPa, which was strongly depended on the density of the specimens. Moreover, the as-built
specimens fabricated with energy density of 73 ~ 93 J/mm 3 revealed similar yield strength of
1130 ± 10 MPa. From these results, it is suggested that the optimized microstructure and
mechanical properties of as-build maraging steel can be achieved by modulating the AM
condition considering the applied energy density.

ABSTRACT

The global hydrogen storage market is anticipated to grow significantly, reaching approximately
$21.7 billion by 2030, up from $14.7 billion in 2021. This represents a compound annual growth
rate (CAGR) of 4.4%, fueled by substantial investments in major countries. Concurrently,
hydrogen-related industries are experiencing increased demand due to their environmental
benefits. However, they are encountering challenges associated with hydrogen embrittlement.
This phenomenon occurs when hydrogen molecules diffuse and are stored between the molecules
of metals such as iron, which diminishes the metal's ductility and can lead to premature crack
failures, particularly at low stresses. Given the severe operating conditions faced by steel materials
in the hydrogen industry, there is a significant push for research focused on enhancing hydrogen
stability, especially within relevant industrial sectors. In this study, we investigated the fabrication
of 316L austenitic stainless steel manufactured by HIP (Hot Isostatic Pressing) method to
construct Ni equivalent through N without using expensive Ni as an alloying method to overcome
hydrogen embrittlement. The sintering behavior of the alloy was examined at temperatures above
1300°C 316L composition of different Ni and Mn contents, commercial 316L alloy powder, and
powder containing CrN. EBSD analysis results, as shown in Figure 1, confirmed the presence of
the same three dominant crystallographic orientations of (111), (101), and (001) austenite (FCC),
with changes in the crystal size observed under the same HIP process conditions. Precipitates that
may occur during alloy sintering were identified through TEM analysis. The fabricated alloys
underwent potentiodynamic polarization tests to study corrosion behavior. The changes in
mechanical properties of 316L stainless steel from the perspective of austenite stability were
investigated when Ni and Mn contents were different and CrN was added.

ABSTRACT

The numerous ecological problems caused by the accumulation of secondary aluminum dross
(SAD) as a hazardous waste generated in aluminum castings have necessitated a need for a
sustainable recycling solution. This study proposes a novel and green leaching-based process for
recovery of nano-alumina as a highly valuable material from SAD. The leaching phase was
performed at atmospheric pressure and low temperature. The hydrochloric acid is used to recover
the alumina value from SAD. The effects of various parameters, e.g., temperature, acid
concentration, and leaching time on the extraction of alumina are studied to optimize the
dissolution process. Characterization of nano-alumina is performed using X-ray diffractometry
(XRD), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, field emission scanning electron
microscopy (FESEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDAX), and transmission electron
microscopy (TEM) techniques.

Keywords: Secondary aluminum dross, alumina, nanostructure, leaching.

ABSTRACT

Tungsten nanopowders were synthesized using three different precursors: commercial tungsten
(W), tungsten trioxide (WO3), and ammonium paratungstate (APT). In this study, the
reddinement of refining tungsten oxide powders through hydrogen (H 2) treatment in a gas
refining furnace was employed. The equipment used for this process is the hydrogen
reconstitution furnace. The process consists of two stages. In the first stag, WO 2(OH)2 is formed
by reacting WO3 with water vapour at temperatures of 1000 – 1100 °C. In the second stage,
WO2(OH)2 is reduced by hydrogen at about 1000 °C to form metallic tungsten. The influence of
process parameters such as furnace temperature, humidity and gas flow on the WO 2(OH)2
evaporation and formation of tungsten powder was investigated. The influence of process
parameters such as: furnace temperature from (1000 – 1150) oC; roasting time from (2 - 5 )
hours; the hydrogen flow rates from (700 – 1000) ml/minute; the argon flow rates from (700 -
1000)ml/minute. Powder charaterization was performed by X-ray diffraction (XRD), field
emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) and transmission electron microcopy (TEM).

Keywords: tungsten nanopowders, hydrogen reduction, WO2(OH)2.

ABSTRACT

This research introduces a novel composite material with self-healing and electromagnetic
interference (EMI) shielding capabilities [1]. This approach combines a layer of silver nanowires
(AgNWs) sandwiched between two layers of self-healing polyurethane (SPU). The AgNWs layer
forms an effective interconnected conductive network, with stacked silver nanowires capable of
reflecting and absorbing electromagnetic waves, providing high EMI shielding performance. The
SPU layers contribute to the automatic self-healing process of mechanical damages and restore
the structural integrity and conductive pathways, acting as a matrix to enhance the adhesion of
the composite film. This composite material has demonstrated impressive EMI shielding
performance (up to 64.6 dB), excellent mechanical durability (106.4 MJ/m³), and self-healing
capability, surpassing traditional shielding materials. The combination of AgNWs and SPU
creates a lightweight, flexible, robust material with self-healing properties, offering significant
potential for applications in mobile electronics, aerospace, and automotive industries, where
long-term durability and reliability are paramount.

ABSTRACT

This study prepared the multilayered films by sequentially filtering suspensions of graphene
fluoride (GF)/aramid nanofiber (ANF) and silver nanowires (AgNWs)/ANF. The resultant films
GF@ANF/AgNWs@ANF, demonstrated outstanding mechanical flexibility and strength, with a
tensile strength reaching up to 130 MPa and enduring 5000 bending cycles with minimal
performance decline. They exhibited remarkably high electromagnetic interference (EMI)
shielding effectiveness of up to 54 dB in X-band frequencies, attributed to multiple internal
reflections within the multilayered structure. EMI shielding relied mainly on absorption, allowing
for the reduction of incident microwaves without secondary pollution. Additionally, the films
displayed ultrahigh in-plane thermal conductivity of up to 45 W/mK, owning to the thermally
conductive networks formed by GF and AgNWs. Both EMI shielding effectiveness and thermal
conductivity remained unchanged after temperature and bending cycling. Furthermore, the
nanocomposite films demonstrated excellent flame retardancy. The integration of robust EMI
shielding, mechanical flexibility, thermal management, and fire safety underscores the potential
of rationally designed multilayered nanocomposites for practical applications in 5G wearable
electronics devices, communications, and radar technologies.

ABSTRACT

Natural rubber (NR), in addition to its elastomeric

properties, has the property of not breaking down
even when momentary stress is applied during large
deformation. The phenomenon of strain-induced
crystallization (SIC), in which polymer chains are
oriented and crystallize when rubber is elongated, is
known to play an important role in exhibiting these
properties. It has been noted that crystals formed by
SIC in vulcanized natural rubber cause a significant
increase in tension during uniaxial elongation of NR,
but there are few reports on SIC of NR under
Figure 1. Diagram showing the SIC

onset and melting in the εX – εY space.
environment of NRs, it is important to clarify the
correlation between SIC and mechanical strength under complex deformation modes such as
multiaxial elongation, since strain occurs under conditions similar to those of multiaxial
elongation. Therefore, in this study, the behavior of SIC in two-step biaxial stretching of NR was
investigated using wide-angle X-ray scattering (WAXS). Experiments were conducted under the
condition that the specimen was extended only in the vertical direction (Y-direction) and
subsequently elongated in the horizontal direction (X-direction) with the vertical direction fixed.
The results are shown in Fig. 1, where εX is the strain in the X-direction and εY is that in the Y-
direction. Points A~E (●) are the points where SIC formation was confirmed during elongation.
After elongation, the SIC crystals disappeared at points A’~E’ (○) when the material was
horizontally unloaded from the elongated state. When the first-step elongation was beyond the G
point, the SIC took place. In the existence of the SIC crystallites, the specimen was then
subjected to the second-step elongatio n in the X-direction by keeping εY constant. For this kind
of experiment, it was found that the SIC crystallites were sometimes melted away. The points H
and I pinned down such points. In such stepwise stretching, we consider that the complexity of
SIC behaviors is related to the orientational state of the polymer chains.

ABSTRACT

Natural rubber (NR) exhibits strain-induced crystallization (SIC), in which the rubber crystallizes
and toughens when the sample is stretched and strained. It is believed that tires are kept safe from
bursting by the instantaneous onset of SIC when strain is applied during ground contact.
However, this is not the only reason. Aircraft tires, which reach speeds of 120 km/h during
landing, make one rotation in about 50 milliseconds, and if the crystals generated by the SIC do
not disappear during one cycle of rotation, they will accumulate, which may lead to tire
hardening. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to clarify the behavior of SIC melting during
the high-speed unloading process by wide-angle X-ray scattering (WAXS) measurements using
synchrotron radiation. The intensity of the (200) reflection peak decreased rapidly and reached
almost zero after 25 milliseconds, suggesting complete melting. It was also found that the
crystals did not melt for some time after the complete unloading (Fig. 1).

ABSTRACT

Flexible electronics necessitate thermally conductive materials with exceptional mechanical

flexibility to regulate heat dissipation and ensure optimal operation. This research introduces
metallic ionic cross-linked films, combining thermal conductivity and mechanical flexibility.
Comprised of aramid nanofibers (ANFs) and exfoliated graphene fluoride (EGF) nanosheets,
these films integrate EGF via vacuum filtration liquid exfoliation of fluorinated graphite. A
metallic ion (Al3+) treatment enhances EGF-ANF interaction. Resultant composite films,
reinforced with EGF, exhibit outstanding in-plane thermal conductivity, up to 19.48 W/mK with
50 wt % EGF, attributed to EGFs' intrinsic thermal conductivity and alignment. Additionally,
they demonstrate remarkable mechanical flexibility and durability, with tensile strength
surpassing 150 MPa even at 50 wt % EGF. Efficient stress transfer across the EGF−ANF
interface facilitates this, while thermal conductivity remains stable up to 200°C. The unique
combination of properties underscores ANF/EGF films' potential for effective thermal
management in flexible electronics.

ABSTRACT

The layer-by-layer structured papers, which incorporate boron arsenide (BA) as insulating layers
and two-dimensional copper nanoflake (CuF) as conductive layers based on aramid nanofiber
(ANF) film, were fabricated through alternating vacuum filtration. This resulted in a paper
(BA4/CuF3) composed of three layers of CuF (50 wt %) based ANF (CuF@ANF) conductive
layers sandwiched between four layers of BA (50 wt%) based ANF (BA/ANF) insulating layers.
These papers demonstrate exceptional electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding effectiveness
(SE) of up to 52 dB in the X-band frequency and in-plane thermal conductivity of up to 32.8
W/mK. Furthermore, they exhibit excellent mechanical flexibility, with the BA4/CuF3 papers
boasting a tensile strength of 92.38 MPa and EMI SE above 50 dB. Additionally, the composites
offer thermal stability up to 500°C and reduce flammability. The simultaneous improvement in
EMI shielding, thermal conductivity, and mechanical properties highlights the potential of layer-
by-layer BA/CuF papers for next-generation flexible electronics requiring electromagnetic
protection and thermal management.

ABSTRACT

The SNCM439 alloy steel, a Ni-Cr-Mo alloy, can achieve high tensile strength at the level of
1,000 MPa and toughness through quenching and tempering (QT) heat treatment, despite only
alloying small amounts of expensive Ni, Cr, and Mo elements. Due to these characteristics, it is
primarily used as a material for components that require high strength and wear resistance, such
as gears, piston, screw, nut, and shaft head. Post-processing heat treatment can impart desired
mechanical properties to the material, relieve internal stresses, and achieve a uniform
microstructure. However, excessive heat treatment can induce grain growth, which may, in turn,
reduce the material's durability. One method to address this issue involves the addition of
vanadium (V), which inhibits grain growth by forming fine carbides at the grain boundaries [1].
In this study, we analyzed the effect of V addition on the microstructure formation in SNCM439
alloy after heat treatment using computational analysis. Thermodynamic calculations for
SNCM439 alloy steel, with and without the addition of vanadium (V), were conducted using
commercial software packages ‘JmatPro’ and ‘FactSage’. Additionally, simulation analyses of
phase transformation behavior under various heat treatment conditions were performed using
‘Abaqus’ and ‘Dante’. These analyses focused on the inhibition of grain growth at high
temperatures due to V addition, allowing for the identification of optimal heat treatment process
conditions.

ABSTRACT

In the domain of electromagnetic shielding, creating nanocomposites that fulfill the requirements
for both electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding and efficient heat dissipation, while
maintaining robust mechanical properties and electrical insulation, has been a persistent challenge.
Achieving these goals, especially with thinner thicknesses, poses significant difficulties. To address
this, a study presents a simple method using boron arsenide (BA)-based aramid nanofibers (ANF)
and silver nanowires (AgNWs) to produce composites with an alternating multilayer structure
(AMS) via vacuum filtration. This approach allows exploration of how different structural
configurations impact the mechanical, EMI shielding, and thermal conductivity properties of the
composites [1]. The resulting composite film, BA50@ANF-3/AgNWs-2, consisting of three layers
of BA 50 wt% based ANF and two layers of AgNWs in the AMS, showed a tensile strength of
137.83 MPa and a fracture strain of 5.96%. It also exhibited remarkable EMI shielding efficiency
(EMI SE) of 54 dB at 30 μm thickness and superior thermal conductivity in both cross-plane (10.92
W/mK) and in-plane (28.125 W/mK) directions. This study provides valuable insights into
fabricating high-performance composite materials using innovative pre-designed architectures.

ABSTRACT

The high entropy alloy based on FeCoNi was designed on the thermodynamic criteria, with
microstructure located in the boundary between single-phase solid solution and multiphase region.
To prepare the alloy, 300g of raw materials in correct portions is melted in a vacuum induction
furnace, then poured into a water-cooled copper mold. The as-cast microstructure is characterized
by coarse dendrites, up to 85 μm in length meanwhile the secondary arm spacing is up to 11 µm;
the SEM pictures show that it’s a pure solid solution. The interdendritic structure is eutectic-, even
spinodal-like, that is fine but unevenly dispersed, and whose proportion is about 21 %. XRD
analysis show that the alloy consists of a phase mixture: FCC + BCC + IM, that is quite close to the
thermodynamic predictions. According to the EDX analysis, the solid solution phase is of cubic
lattice and is a mixture of all constituents, that reflects the nature of high entropy alloys. The
interdendritic eutectic-like structure consists of Nb-rich phase, embedded in the solid solution. The
heat treatment observations show that the onset of precipitation is at above 755 0C via solute
redistribution to form two kinds of intermetallic phases, one of that is rich in niobium, probably
Co2Nb (Fm3m) or Fe5Nb3 (hexagonal), and the other is rich in aluminum, probably AlFe 0,23Ni0,77
(Pm3m) or Al72,5Co15Ni8,5, resulting in very high hardness, that can reach the values of 613
kgf/mm2, leading to low friction coefficient but elevated brittleness, that can be depressed by
creation of single-phase solid solution microstructure. Besides, the compressive yield strength can
reach high enough value of 1089 MPa, but decreases sharply when the anneal temperature increases
up to 1000 0C due to the plastic flow phenomenon at grain boundaries, resulting in the appearance
of deep grooves in which.

Keywords: High entropy alloy, FeCoNiAlNb alloy; microstructure, mechanical properties, heat

ABSTRACT

Ductile cast iron outperforms steel in terms of strength, ductility, hardness, and wear resistance,
making it widely utilized in automotive components. Additionally, it has a lower melting point
than steel, which simplifies the casting process and reduces costs. The strength of Ductile cast
iron can be controlled by the ratio of ferrite to pearlite in its matrix. Typically, Ductile cast iron
with a high ferrite-pearlite ratio tends to have higher elongation and lower tensile strength, while
a lower ratio results in higher tensile strength and lower elongation. Such properties make ductile
iron suitable for use in the circular spline of harmonic reducers, a type of reduction gear used in
robotics. To achieve optimized properties for the circular spline in harmonic reducers,
adjustments were made to typical components, such as the pearlite-promoting elements Cu and
Sn, to form a wear-resistant matrix and to evaluate the resulting differences in mechanical
properties. The metallurgical structure was confined to a range that sufficiently pearlitizes while
preventing the formation of detrimental intermetallic compounds, and components A, B, and C
were determined. From A to C, the pearlite-promoting elements were increasingly included,
resulting in progressively higher hardness. However, B exhibited the highest tensile strength and
elongation, likely due to its composition being sufficient to stabilize the highest fraction of
pearlite and the formed pearlite/ferrite being the most stable. A appeared to have insufficient
pearlite formation when considering hardness and tensile strength, whereas C, despite similar
tensile strength to A, showed higher hardness, suggesting adverse effects on elongation due to
fine precipitates. Therefore, the optimal composition for the harmonic reducer's circular spline is
determined to be B.

ABSTRACT

One popular method for intensive plastic deformation of metals and alloys is equal-channel angular pressing
(ECAP), which provides the fabrication of bulk workpieces with grain sizes ranging from microns
(ultrafine-grained) to hundreds or even tens of nanometers [1]. Pressing the workpiece through intersecting
channels of a die with the same cross-sectional area is a fundamental step in the process [1, 2]. The structure
and mechanical characteristics of the processed materials can be effectively controlled by repeatedly
pressing the workpiece via intersecting channels. Structural inhomogeneity of samples and large
deformation forces can be mentioned as one of the major features of ECAP. These drawbacks are attributed
to the frictional force between the workpiece and the die. One of the ways to reduce contact friction force is
to apply ultrasonic vibrations. An original ECAP device (Fig. 1) has been developed at the Institute of
Technical Acoustics of the National Academy of Sciences of Belarus [3]. The attachment components are
positioned in the nodal plane of mechanical displacements of the standing wave, which is directly excited in
the die and workpiece during pressing process. Application of a such design leads to a decrease in the
deformation force of bimetal Zn, Al and Cu-Ag workpieces from 1.5 to 4 times, as well as a change in the
structure and the physical and mechanical properties of the samples.

ABSTRACT

Silicon carbide particle reinforced copper matrix composites (SiC/Cu) are among the advanced
materials in greater demand because of the demanding design specifications in the electronic
packaging, mechanical relay, welding electrode, electrical contact, contactor, switch, and circuit
break industries. SiC/Cu composites have generated a lot of interest because they combine low
production costs, mechanical strength, moldability, and good electrical and thermal conductivity.
In this work, we prepared SiC/Cu composites having high strength, low friction coefficient and
high conductivity for electric and electronics applications by using powder metallurgy method.
The effect of the size of SiC particles on the properties of composites was investigated. Advanced
characterization techniques were employed to clarify the correlation between the microstructure
and properties of the produced composites. The high-energy ball milling process was used to
uniformly disperse SiC within the Cu matrix and then consolidated by spark plasma sintering
(SPS) technique. The obtained results showed that the prepared composites displayed a 2.5-fold
increase in hardness and a 2.2-fold increase in tensile strength. The tribological properties of the
composites were presented and discussed. The composites demonstrated enhanced wear resistance
as a result of a reduction in friction coefficient and wear rate when contrasted with pure Cu. In
addition, the strengthening effect of composites was accurately quantified through the utilization of
numerous strengthening mechanisms.

ABSTRACT

Titanium alloy matrix composites (TMC) are increasingly attracting major research attention
because of their potential uses in industries such as automotive and aerospace. They possess a low
weight and typically exhibit desirable characteristics such as high specific strength, exceptional
chemical resistance, and outstanding biocompatibility. These characteristics make them suitable
for structural, chemical, petrochemical, maritime, and biological applications. In this work,
graphene nanoplatelets (GNPs) were used as a reinforcement material for TMC. The Gr/Ti alloy
composites was prepared by using powder metallurgy method. GNP/Ti alloy powder were mixed
together by using the combination of ultrasonication, magnetic stirring and then vacuum filtration.
The mixed powders were then consolidated by using spark plasma sintering (SPS) technique.
Microstructure and mechanical properties (hardness, tensile strength) of prepared composites were
investigated and presented. The obtained results showed that the GNPs were uniform dispersed
within Ti alloy matrix. The related density of the prepared composites is higher than 98%. The
mechanical properties and wear resistance are increase with the increase of the GNP contents. This
is attributed to the impact of the GNP as reinforcement materials.

ABSTRACT

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are attracting growing interest as they exhibit attractive properties when
used to reinforce metal matrix composites (MMCs). A large number of studies on metallic matrix
– carbon nanotubes composites (MMCs-CNTs) demonstrate that achieving a uniform dispersion
of carbon nanotubes has been the most prominent barrier in the field of composites reinforced with
carbon nanotubes. In this work, we will present an approach to obtaining homogeneously
dispersed CNTs in Ti alloy powders for preparing CNT/Ti alloy composite. The mixing method is
a combination of ultrasonication and vacuum filtration, was used for achieving the uniform
dispersion of CNTs and power metallurgy (PM) technique was used for preparing CNT/Ti alloy
composites. The distribution quality of CNTs in Ti alloy matrix composites was also qualified
based on microstructure analysis technique. The morphologies, structures and mechanical
properties of the CNT/Ti composite were also investigated in detail by SEM, EDX, X-Ray, and
mechanical measurement methods. The experimental results demonstrate that this method not only
effectively produces dispersion, but also prevents damage to the structure of CNTs. The related
density of the composites is higher than 97%. Wear resistance and mechanical properties are
enhanced as the concentration of GNPs increases.

ABSTRACT

The use of MoS2 nanosheets as oil additives has been demonstrated to effectively diminish wear.
In this work, two-dimensional MoS2 nanosheets were successfully fabricated by ball milling
method. The morphologies and structures of the synthesized MoS 2 nanosheets were estimated by
SEM, Raman. The synthesized MoS2 nanosheets revealed a good dispersing stability in paraffin
oil through the surface modification by steric acid. The wear property of lubricant oil based on the
synthesized MoS2 nanosheets were investigated using a ball-on-disk tribotester. The result showed
that the two-dimensional MoS2 nanosheets exhibited enhanced anti-wear behavior.

ABSTRACT

Composite square tubes have many specific uses due to geometry, capacity not only in normal life
applicants but also in industry. However, it’s difficult to produce filament-wound composite
square tubes demands both windability and uniform coverage of winding patterns. In comparison
to round tube, the main difference between round and square tube in filament winding is the
uniformity of fiber tow tension. Particularly, fiber tow tension is high at edges for square tube,
while it’s almost uniform for round tube. One more problem of square tube needed to solve is the
slippage of fiber tow at low winding angle. Hereby, we report carbon-epoxy square tubes
produced by 4-axis filament winding machine. About design, the spatial relation between the feed
eye and the mandrel was outlined and the kinematic equations for coupling the motion of the
mandrel and the feed eye were derived. The relation between fiber tow tension and mandrel
rotation speed was also calculated. With 4-axis filament winding system, small-angle winding of
composite square tubes was proposed, taking the non-slippage condition of winding trajectories
into account. The designed fiber patterns were then applied to the practical production of a
composite square tube with small winding angles. The results show that the present design method
for filament-wound square tubes is accurate and reliable with dimension up to 1200x1200x2000
mm (see Figure 1). The obtained kinematic equations and motion laws of the feed eye and the
mandrel satisfy the basic winding principle and manufacturability of filament-wound composite
square tubes. The present method is able to provide a useful tool for design and production of
composite square tubes, especially large square tube.

ABSTRACT

In this paper, carbon-based materials including carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and electro-conductive
carbon (EC carbon) black were combined with polyurethane resin to produce electromagnetic
(EM) radiation absorbent paints. Different paint formulations were prepared and characterized to
identify the effect of different nanocomposite material content and the paint thickness on the EM
absorbing performance. The paints with different compositions were applied to an aluminum
surface before conducting the EM absorbing performance using vector network analyzer
MS2028B according to ASTM D4935-18. The experimental results showed that the EM absorbing
performance of the paint are greatly improved with the CNTs concentration of 3% and EC carbon
concentration of 2.5%. The reflection loss (R) value of the paint with 3% CNTs and 2.5% EC
carbon was -20 dB at 9.7 GHz and the frequency bandwidth corresponding to the reflection lost
more than 10 dB was in the frequency range of 8 GHz to 12 GHz. The EM absorbing mechanism
of CNTs and EC carbon black was also explained in this research.

Keywords: Electromagnetic absorbing performance, carbon-based materials, carbon nanotubes

(CNTs), electro-conductive carbon black (EC carbon), absorbent paints.

ABSTRACT

Over the past couple of decades, there have been studies about the topic of optimizing different
parts of satellites, allowing them to become smaller, lighter and yet could still perform as well as
their larger counterparts. For example, there is a numerical model [1] to predict the enhanced
thermal conductivity of a mixed cooling fluid incorporated with CNTs. The heat transfer
efficiency of the new fluid is high enough so that the entire active cooling system could be
miniaturized to fit inside a small satellite. In this study, a novel lightweight Carbon-Fiber-
Reinforced-Polymer (CFRP) will be developed to replace traditional aluminum alloys (Aluminum
6061, Aluminum 7075, Aluminum-lithium alloys…). The new material is predicted to be lighter,
have higher tensile and flexural strength, as well as better electromagnetic shielding (EMI) than
aluminum alloys. One of the major challenges when manufacturing this new CFRP is to create the
carbon-nanotube-graphene hybrid material and then disperse it thoroughly into the epoxy matrix at
an ideal volume fraction so that it could outperform aluminum alloys as expected. In this study,
we present some initial results of our new process: to create the hybrid material of CNTs and
graphene that is suitable to be used with epoxy resin, and then to verify its quality using analytical
methods. It could be seen in Figure 1a that before functionalization, there is a lot of agglomeration
inside the hardened epoxy matrix. On the other hand, Figure 1b shows a consistent black colour
throughout the sample, implying a much higher dispersibility of carbon nanomaterials inside the
epoxy matrix after the successful functionalization and mixing.

ABSTRACT

In this work, FeNiCoAl0.8Mo0.2Si0.8B0.2 high entropy alloy was synthesized by high energy ball
milling and consolidated using spark plasma sintering. The phase evolution of the powders and
consolidated samples was investigated by an X-ray diffractometer, while the microstructure was
observed by scanning electron microscopy. Magnetic properties were determined in terms of
magnetic saturation and coercivity by using a vibrating sample magnetometer. After ball milling
for 50 h, the mixture powder has formed a bcc structure, but the trace of Mo is still detected. The
XRD patterns of the sintered samples reveal that the high entropy alloy's main phase is bcc, while
the rising sintering temperature also enhances a minor fcc structure. All samples present soft
magnetic properties, in which the magnetic saturation of samples increased with sintering
temperatures and obtained the highest value of 71.4 A.m 2/kg and a coercivity of 1337 A/m at the
sintering temperature of 960 oC.

ABSTRACT

In this work, the Mg100Ni50 materials was synthesized via a powder metallurgy technique, which
includes mixing elemental powders by ball milling, cold pressing, and finally annealing at
different temperatures: 650 oC, 700 oC, and 750 oC for 30 min under high purity-argon gas. We
investigated the phase formation and microstructure of the annealed samples using an X-ray
diffractometer (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The results show that the
increase in annealing temperature led to greater formation of the Mg 2Ni phase. After sintering at
650 oC, the formation of the Mg-Mg2Ni eutectic compound has been observed co-existing with the
Mg particles in the microstructure of the sample. If the sintering temperatures were raised to 700
and 750 oC, the Mg disappeared and large Mg2Ni particles along with the Mg-Mg2Ni eutectic
compound formed instead. In addition, raising the sintering temperatures improves both the
density and Vickers hardness of the obtained samples.

ABSTRACT

This work investigated the effect of milling time on the phase and microstructure evolution of W-
Ni-Fe-Co (90.5W-7.2Ni-1.8Fe-0.5Co, wt.%) heavy alloy powders. The mixture powders were
drum ball milled at different milling times: 1, 12, 24, 36, 48, 60, 72, and 96 h under n-hexane
media. An X-ray diffractometer was used to investigate the phase formation, while scanning
electron microscopy was used to observe the change in microstructure of the as-milled powders.
The results show that at shorter milling times than 36 h, XRD patterns clearly show diffraction
peaks of W, Ni, and Fe. Extended milling times have the potential to enhance the dissolution of Fe
in Ni. In general, the longer the milling times, the smaller the powder particle size and the greater
the contamination from milling media (balls and jars) into the mixture powders; however, the
contamination was not significant.

ABSTRACT

Recently, Au(III) complexes with thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) mechanism
have been drawing considerable attention in organic light-emitting diodes (OLED). Generally,
the fast reverse intersystem crossing (RISC) owing to a reasonable spin – orbit coupling (SOC)
and a small energy gap between singlet and lowest triplet state is key for rational design of high
internal quantum yield (IQY) TADF – emitter. Herein, we develop a synergic combination of
DFT method and decay rate theory to calculate the ISC/RISC rates of Au(III) complexes. We
explore then the excited – deactivation dynamics of a series Au(III) complexes consisting of
asymmetric C^C^N ligands and carbazole moieties by using our protocol. Our calculations show
that the “intermediate triplet state” has important role in triplet harvesting (Fig. 1). In addition,
we show that through space charge transfer (TSCT) also improves IQY. These results point out
the new factors for rational molecular design of TADF – emitters.
