ABSTRACT:
Inverted emulsion polymerization technique was adopted to prepare composite
of conducting polyaniline (PANI) and [Cu2Cl4L3].2H2O complex [L= m-aminophenyl
benzimidazole] by utilizing novel benzoyl peroxide as an oxidizing agent. Polyaniline
ratio was varied between 10 to 90% based on the yield percentage of PANI. The
prepared polyaniline (PANI) - [Cu2Cl4L3].2H2O nanocomposites were characterized
by Fourier-transform infrared spectra, Four probe conductivity, X-ray diffraction,
Thermogravimetric analysis and Scanning electron microscopy.
The FTIR spectrum of pure PANI and its composites with [Cu2Cl4L3].2H2O shows
the vibrational bands due to N-H stretching (2941-3009cm-1
), quinoid (1621cm-1
) and
benzenoid ring stretching (1350cm-1
), etc. Conductivity of pure polyaniline was seen
to be 1.8S/cm and upon the addition of [Cu2Cl4L3].2H2Ocomplex in increasing order
the conductivity decreases. X-ray diffraction of PANI- [Cu2Cl4L3].2H2O nano-
composite showed two crystalline peaks at 20.83 and 25.46 (2Ѳ). TGA thermogram
of PANI- [Cu2Cl4L3].2H2O nano-composites (50/50) undergoes three step weight loss
in the temperature range 32-74, 74-280 and 280-5430
C for first, second and third with
a mass loss of 5, 20 and 21% respectively. Thermograms reveals that the thermal
stability of pure PANI was slightly improved by the incorporation of
[Cu2Cl4L3].2H2O. Coating of polyaniline on [Cu2Cl4L3].2H2O was confirmed by SEM
pictures.
Key words: polyaniline-[Cu2Cl4L3].2H2O nanocomposites; inverted emulsion

Abstract: Compounds with the spinel structure AB2X4 (A and B – metals, X –
O, S, Se, Te) demonstrate a wide variety of compositions due to the wide substitution
possibilities both in cationic A and B and in the anionic sublattice X. This also
determines the variety of physical properties of spinels, which allows us to consider
them as promising functional materials. The diversity of magnetic phenomena in
spinelsmakes promising the search for compounds or solid solutions that are
multiferroic or exhibit a linear magnetoelectric effect (ME),however a relatively small
number of suchspinels have been discovered [1]. A necessary condition for the
occurrence of a magnetoelectric couplingis the absence of a center of inversion of the
crystal structure. In spinels, the presence of different kinds of atoms in cationic
sublattices can suppress the center of inversion due to the possibility of atomic
ordering. Thus, LiFe5O8 spinel has high ferrimagnetic ordering temperatures and
exists in two modifications: disordered (sp.gr. Fd3
̅m) and ordered (sp.gr.P4132 and
P4332). The latternoncentrocymmetric structure is characterized by a 1:3 atomic
ordering of Li and Fe in the B-sublattice, but admits, however, only a quadratic ME.
Previously, the existence of linear ME in spinels of type 𝐴1/2

atomic ordering in the A-sublatticewas predicted, which leads to a decrease in

detected. In this paper, the synthesis of solid solutions (1-x)LiZn2.5Ti2.5O8 –
xLiFe5O8was carried out by the solid-phase method. The crystal structures of the
obtained solid solutions were investigated by X-ray diffraction analysis and refined by
the Rietveld method, the magnetic ordering temperatures and the local crystalline
environment of iron were studied by the Mössbauer spectroscopy method, and
magnetic hysteresis loops were studied at room temperature.

Abstract
The MgB2 compound finds extensive use in superconductor research and
electronic device development. Literature documents the modification of this material
through the introduction of transition metals at the Mg site. This includes employing
MgB2 for cost-effective fabrication of superconductor wires, showing promise for
electronic and magnetic resonance device applications. The material's hexagonal
P6/mmm space group provides adaptability for alterations involving transition metals
at the Mg site [1].
Computational simulations conducted in this study utilized the DFT/HSE06
methodology within the CRYSTAL17 software, complemented by the VESTA
viewer. Specific Gaussian basis sets were assigned to Mg, B, Ni, Fe, and Nb atoms,
denoted as 8-511G, m-6-311G(d), TZVP, s8411p6411d441, and 986-31(631d)G,
respectively. The material Mg0.875X0.125B2 (where X = Nb, Fe, and Ni) was
modeled within a 2x2x2 supercell, focusing on the Mg site. Investigation of the
electronic characteristics relied on the analysis of Electronic Band Structure (EBS)
and Density of States (DOS).
Comparison of quantum simulations for MgB2 with literature's reported cell
parameters (a = b = 3.073 Å and c = 3.553 Å) confirms its robust crystalline structure
calculated. The introduction of Ni, Fe, and Nb dopants causes minor distortions in the
a and b parameters, while a significant distortion occurs in the c parameter.
Specifically, Nb, Ni, and Fe doping leads to a contraction in the c parameter,
indicating layer approximation. Examination of the Electronic Band Structure reveals
that the presence of magnetic cations in Fe and Ni-doped materials induces the
formation of a Dirac Cone in the beta channel at symmetry point A. In contrast, the
Dirac Cone appears in both the alpha and beta channels at Г and A points for Nb-
doped material. Furthermore, the Dirac Cone profile is more pronounced in Fe and
Ni-doped materials, with clearer intersection points among the Bands.](https://image.slidesharecdn.com/abstractsofinternationalconferenceonrecenttrendsinadvancedmaterials-240625192110-27fe9fa7/85/The-Art-of-Science-Combining-Creativity-and-Inquiry-156-320.jpg)

Abstract
The Goodenough-Kanamori-Anderson model(GKA) [1], characterizes
electronic superexchange, illustrating how magnetic coupling between two magnetic
sites occurs through a non-magnetic barrier like an oxygen (O) atom. Understanding
this behavior in a Pm-3m cubic crystallographic arrangement presents a challenge. To
address this, DFT quantum simulations using the HSE06 functional were performed
within the CRYSTAL17 software. Gaussian basis sets, namely HAYWSC-
311(d11f)G, 86-411d41G, and 8-411d11G, were utilized to describe Sr, Fe, and O
atoms respectively.
A supercell of size 1x1x2 was constructed to investigate the magnetic ordering on the
[Fe-O-Fe] connection within two [FeO6] magnetic clusters, both in ferromagnetic
(FM) and antiferromagnetic (AFM) configurations, while considering the presence of
an oxygen vacancy (Vo) as a perturbation. Electronic profiles were evaluated through
analysis of the Electronic Band Structure (EBS) and Density of States (DOS).
Comparing the structural data with experimental literature [2], the crystalline structure
displayed lattice parameters consistent with prior findings. Magnetic ordering in the
simulated SrFeO3 (SFO) structure matched the literature, where an AFM magnetic
ordering was reported. Upon introducing the Vo perturbation to create SFV material,
it was observed that the Vo preserved the AFM ordering. The EBS indicated metallic
behavior for the SFO material, while the SFV material exhibited semiconductor
characteristics due to the Vo presence.
The interaction between these electronic states, characterized by an overlap, revealed
a significant intermetallic bond interaction. This interaction could be understood as a
molecular path for the GKA model. In both SFO and SFV materials, an intense
superexchange effect between Fe atoms occurred, facilitated by the O non-magnetic
atom serving as a bridge to link the two magnetic clusters.](https://image.slidesharecdn.com/abstractsofinternationalconferenceonrecenttrendsinadvancedmaterials-240625192110-27fe9fa7/85/The-Art-of-Science-Combining-Creativity-and-Inquiry-157-320.jpg)

ABSTRACT:
CdWO4with monoclinic wolframite structure is a well-studied material in the
tungstate family with tremendous promise in a variety of applications. This work
shows significant influence of magnetic and optical characteristics of hydrothermally
produced single crystalline CdWO4 nanorods with adjustable replacement of Cu2+
ions at the Cd2+
site.With increasing Cu concentration (0 to 10%), the mean diameter
(62 to 40 nm) and length (341 to 184 nm) decreased dramatically, resulting in an
astounding 16% reduction in the aspect ratio. XRD results confirms the single-phase
monoclinic structure. The development of a gradual shift from diamagnetic to
increased magnetization in terms of Cu content was attributed to replacing [CdO6]
with the small ferromagnetic [CuO6] cluster in the crystal lattice.Cu-doping produced
intermediated energy level was given a redshift of 0.8 eV in bandgap energy and a
relative 46% reduction in internal quantum efficiency, permitting direct transition
between the valence band and conduction band proven by XEOL studies.Our findings
indicate that Cu dopant-induced nucleation in CdWO4 influences energy transfer and
structural modifications rather than direct radiative decay from Cu sites.

Abstract:
Half-metallic compensated ferrimagnets with high Curie temperature are
potential candidates for spintronic applications due to their zero moment and high
spin polarization [1]. Our earlier investigation on the structural and magnetic
properties of Mn2V1-xCoxZ (Z=Ga, Al; x=0, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1) alloys have shown
a high TC compensated ferrimagnetism for x=0.5. But the half-metallic
characteristic was not probed. Here we are presenting an indirect investigation of
the half-metallicity of Mn2V1-xCoxZ using magnetization and electrical resistivity
studies. The magnetic moment values are in close agreement with the values
predicted by S-P rule. variation of spontaneous magnetization showed a local
moment behavior at low temperatures and an itinerant behavior at higher
temperatures for all the samples except x=0.5. The major contribution to the
resistivity at low temperatures arises from two-magnon scattering and the one-
magnon spin-flip scattering was less in magnitude. Indirect evidence for half-
metallicity can be observed except for the x=0.5 sample.](https://image.slidesharecdn.com/abstractsofinternationalconferenceonrecenttrendsinadvancedmaterials-240625192110-27fe9fa7/85/The-Art-of-Science-Combining-Creativity-and-Inquiry-217-320.jpg)

Our research team has devoted more than ten years to the study of aluminate and aluminate based composites, mainly focusing on their photoluminescence, adsorption and photocatalytic activities. The effects of different divalent ions and different contents of mixed components on the photoluminescence and photocatalytic activities of MAl2O4 and MAl2O4based composites were investigated. The internal correlation mechanism between photoluminescence and photocatalytic activity has also been deeply explored. A variety of intelligent algorithms including back propagation neural network algorithms, whale algorithms, genetic algorithms and particle swarm algorithms have been developed to predict the adsorption or photocatalytic activity of aluminate or aluminate based composites. These studies summarized from the single component aluminate to the construction of heterojunction composites, from the degradation of dyes to the degradation of drugs, from the synthesis of mechanical to the synthesis of morphology and performance regulation, combined with the intelligent optimization algorithms to gradually achieve the optimal synthesis of the best catalyst.

International Conference on Recent Trends in Advanced Materials-2023 School of Physical Sciences KLE’s P.C.Jabin Science College, Hubballi Page 2 Encoded Surfaces by Stochastic Processing of Nanoscale Materials Prof. M. Serdar ONSES Department of Materials Science and Engineering ERNAM – Nanotechnology Research and Application Center Erciyes University Abstract: The design and development of novel encoded surfaces are of great research interest in today’s world for use in anti-counterfeiting, authentication, data security and biotechnology applications. A highly promising approach that has gained recent attention involves the exploitation of physically unclonable functions (PUFs). The concept of PUFs refers to the exploitation of a physical system in authentication applications for generating a response as a result of an input challenge. The physical system in the PUF has a unique and unclonable response to a particular challenge. PUFs can be constructed by using intrinsically stochastic processes, which produce random features. The strong interest on these systems emerges from the impossibility of predicting the response by the manufacturer and third parties.The unique characteristics of nanomaterials, in particular, are highly suitable for fabrication of PUF based encoded surfaces. This talk will focus on the instability driven generation of encoded surfaces using different forms of nanoscale materials. We have recently shown that dewetting instabilities in nanoscopic films and stochastic deposition of materials via electro spraying are effective strategies to generate PUFs. Polymers, organic semiconductors, inorganic thin films, graphene, colloidal gold nanoparticles and quantum dots formed randomized domains with distinctive photophysical and structural properties using these processes.Image analysis and feature matching algorithms confirmed that such encoded surfaces are unclonable in nature and provide a suitable platform for authentication and anti-counterfeiting applications.

It is associated with increased androgen receptor (AR) signalingbrought about by elevated intratumoral androgen biosynthesis and AR amplification. Aldo-keto reductase family 1 member C3 (AKR1C3) catalyzes the formation of potent AR ligands from inactive precursors and is one of the most upregulated genes in CRPC.The present study was aimed at determining crystal structure of the ligand by x-ray methods and to perform molecular docking and molecular dynamics studies of the synthesized molecules against AKR1C3. From the results obtained it was found that the MMPBSA binding energies of ligands ADM is -7.3109 kcal/mol and BDM is -4.3277.This has created a new rational approach to drug design, where the structure of drug is designed, based on its fit to structures of receptor site, rather than basing it on analogies to other active structures. The above compounds are binding strongly with Aldo-keto reductase family 1 member C3 protein.

Materials in the nanometer regime display wonderful size-dependent optical, electronic, magnetic, and chemical properties that are remarkably different from their bulk behaviour due to their unique properties of high surface area and exceptional surface activity. We used the chemical reduction method to synthesise silver nanoparticles, which are in the 4–12 nm size range. The optical properties of isolated colloidal particles, and in particular their dependence on particle size effects, have been intensively investigated through Mie’s scattering theory. In the present case, the absorption spectra of silver nanoparticles of size 4–12 nm have a maximum peak in the range 400–410 nm, respectively, related to the plasmon resonance formed due to the nanosized silver nanoparticles. This absorption band (surface plasmon resonance, SPR) results from interactions of free electrons confined to small metallic spherical objects with incident electromagnetic radiation. The observed plasmon resonance band shows the silver nanoparticles are spherical in shape. Optical absorption and fluorescence of the highly fluorescent laser dye Red Mega 480 in alcohol solvents with the attachment of silver nanoparticles show quenching in absorption and fluorescence intensities. This is due to size, shape, coupling between silver nanoparticles and dye, and energy transfer between silver and dye. Quenching of fluorescence in the presence of nanoparticles for Red Mega 480 leads to many applications, especially advancements in biomolecular labelling, fluorescence patterning, and chemotherapy in cancer treatment.

J. N. Christy Department of Physics, Hislop College, Nagpur jnchristyngp@gmail.com Abstract Calcium hexa ferrites offers a promising material for industrial applications because of its good magnetic, electrical, mechanical, and magneto-optical properties along with perfect thermal and chemical stability and has been a subject of interest due to narrow range of particle size distribution. The magnetic properties of these hexa ferrites can be tuned by making suitable metallic substitutions foriron(Fe3+ ) with paramagnetic and diamagnetic cations. So, an attempt was made to study the structural and magnetic properties of Calcium hexa ferrites substituted with Co2+ and Zr4+ and Zn2+ and Zr4+ . However, after an extensive literature survey this composition has never been reported and we have successfully synthesized these two series for the first time.The hexagonal ferrites were prepared bysol-gel auto combustion method and the structural and magnetic properties for the two samples were investigated. The microstructure and morphological studies were also analysed. Coercivity and remanence magnetization can be easily controlled by varying substitution making it useful for recording media.

The influence of CeO2 doping on the microstructure and various electrical properties of BNTBT6 ceramics was investigated. X-ray diffraction patterns and the lattice parameter investigations revealed the formation of phase pure materials with tetragonal structure, with tetragonality parameter c/a increasing from 1.0013 to 1.0306 at x=0.6%and then decreasing to 0.7173 at x=1mol% with increase of concentration till x=1 mol% and Williamson-Hall plots indicated crystallite sizes ranging from 34nm-92nm for Ce4+ concentration from 0.2 to 1 mol%. SEM studies indicated that substitution of Ce4+ for Ti4+ at the B-site led to a significant increase in grain size for 0.4 mol % of CeO2. Thus, CeO2 doping is seen to produce significant grain growth of BNTBT6 ceramic, assumably due to its densification. Various electrical properties such as complex permittivity and conductivity of BNTBT6 ceramics are obviously changed with doping a small amount of CeO2.Temperature dependent real part of complex permittivity showed a peak at 400o C at all the test frequency ranges. Frequency dependent dielectric loss tangent showed peakscorresponding to 200o C, 250o C, and 300o C for almost all the compositions with CeO2 substitution up to 1 mol %. A.C activation energies computed using Arrhenius relation in the temperature range of 325o C-500o C showed maxima at ~100 KHz for the BNTBT6 ceramic composition having Ce4+ concentration from 0.2 to 0.8 mol%.

Most of the waste in the environment can be reutilized very easily via simple physical/chemical treatments. Under this, we have proposed a novel, simple, economical, sustainable, and renewable approach for cleaning polluted water by proper utilization of carbon from the waste water filter cartridges (WFC). The activated carbon (AC) from the environmental WFC was obtained through simple reactivation by a moderate physical treatment in the furnace (500°C; 1hr). The results from XRD,FE-SEM, BET, and RAMAN characterization bear out the successful generation of AC from WFC (AC-WFC). In the proposed work methylene blue (MB) dye was used as a model pollutant. To estimate the maximum adsorption capacity of AC-WFC, a batch adsorption technique was implemented and it was found to be 55.62 mg.g−1 . The influence of various core parameters like solution pH, amount of AC-WFC, MB dye concentration, and the interaction period was carried out. Furthermore, AC-WFC was tested for kinds of traditional as well as emerging contaminants such as dyes, pharmaceuticals, metal ions and it showed interesting results by an unconventional method. Moreover, the study was employed for real wastewater effluents samples from industries. Most importantly, AC-WFC adsorbent showed good results for the kinds of pollutants, and support to carbon reutilization from WFC is possible with nominal treatment and can be used for environmental remediation on a commercial scale.

Corresponding Author*E–mail: ashok1571972@gmail.com (Ashok R Lamani) Abstract: In the current investigation, the influence of silver (Ag) nanoparticles (NPs) on photoluminescence (PL) attributes of trivalent neodymium ions activated glass specimens has been thoroughly examined and described in detail. The optimized concentration of Nd3+ ions was found to be 1 mol %. The Ag NPs were incorporated into this optimized glass composition to tune the PL properties and associated parameters to substantial magnitudes.The presence and distribution of Ag NPs were confirmed using transmission electron microscopic analysis. The contribution of Ag NPs was ascertained utilizing the luminescence enhancement factor (LEF). The LEF for the PL emission peak located at 1055 nm was enhanced from 1.33 to 2.53 when the AgNO3 content increased from 0.2 to 0.6 mol %, although the LEF decreased at 0.8 mol % to 2.38. The Judd Ofelt intensity parameter, the Ω2 increases with respect to AgNO3which suggest the Nd3+ occupies more asymmetrical sites in the Ag NPs containing glasses. All these attenuations were accredited to the local field induced by surface plasmons of Ag NPs when the glass specimens excited with suitable electromagnetic radiation. The quantum efficiency,stimulated emission cross-section, and emission bandwidth magnitudes of PL emission transition of Nd3+ ions located at 1055 nm were increased with increase of Ag NPs inclusion up to 0.6 mol %. This instantiates that the inclusion of Ag NPs to the optimized glass composition by 0.6 mol %, making it a beneficial host for optical amplifier and laser functionalities.

To study the sensitivity (%) of the prepared gas sensingdevices, the experiment was performed as:(i) by varying the gas concentration (ppm) at a fixed temperature (℃) and (ii) by varying the temperature (℃) at a fixed gas concentration (ppm).Among all the samples, MgFe2O4 exhibited the highest sensitivity with 82% even at room temperature. The mixed type of semiconducting trend (n and p-type) was observed by all the gas sensing devices for both gases at different temperatures.The sensitivity increased with the temperature and peaked at its operating temperature for all the prepared ferrite devices.The maximum sensitivity (Smax) of around 99% was exhibited by Mn0.8Ni0.2Fe2O4 and MnFe2O4 at different temperaturesand concentrations of ammonia and ethanol gases, respectively. This study indicates that all the prepared nano-structured ferrites are efficient to detect gases and can be used as gas sensors.

The appearing of quadrupole splitting at 370Kassociatedwith lowering of Sn4+ local symmetry due to the offsets of oxygen ions. The increase in quadrupole splitting value at 200K indicates additional lowering of Sn4+ local environment symmetry. These changes are caused by structural order-disorder phase transition due to displacements of oxygen and lead ions.

Transition metal doped ferrites are an excellent choice for humidity sensors applications. Considering this, the current study involves the preparation of bismuth (Bi3 + ) oxide-substituted zinc ferrites by the solution combustion technique. The typical formula for these ferrites is Bi@ZnFe2O4 (x = 0–0.05). An investigation of the influence of the Bi3+ substitution on the structural, microstructural, and humidity characteristics was carried out. Up to 0.2 mol/% dopants, the X-ray diffraction analysis showed evidence of the creation of a cubic spinel structure. The Scherer technique, which has a range of 20 to 39 nm, was used to determine the average crystallite size of the sample. When nanoparticles are included in samples, the total amount of surface area that is necessary to favour adsorption processes in the samples is significantly increased. Micrographs taken using a scanning electron microscope revealed that the surfaces in question had a porous and irregular structure, as evidenced by the existence of holes and pores. The superparamagnetic behavior of the sample was confirmed by vibrating magnetometer. We noticed a decrease in resistance as the relative humidity increased from 11 to 97%, and we saw an increase in the sensing response as the relative humidity increased. Both of these trends were detected over the whole range of relative humidity. It has been determined that the highest humidity hysteresis occurs when the relative humidity is 54%. The amount of time it took for the sensor to respond was timed at 79 s, and the amount of time it took to recover was timed at 91 s. There is not much of a disparity between the sensing response and recuperation time. The higher concentration of Bi i. e 0.03 mol% exhibits excellent humidity sensing behavior. Because Bismuth is nonmagnetic material, due to this material morphology increases. Morphology increases the humidity behavior of the samples increases in our results.

The synthesized nano-composites were subjected to various characterization techniques for comprehensive analysis. The shape of the synthesized nano-composite was determined using scanning electron microscopy coupled with energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (SEM-EDX). The synthesized nano-composites were then utilized in a photocatalytic dye degradation study, specifically targeting the degradation of Congo red, Crystalline violet, and Methyl red dyes in a solution phase. Batch operations were conducted in the liquid phase to investigate the influence of various experimental parameters such as pH, dose, dye concentrations, and time. By evaluating these parameters, we determined the optimum conditions for the efficient degradation of the dyes.

Madhuri1 *, Gadela Venkata Radha2 1 Department of Pharmaceutics, GITAM School of Pharmacy, Rishikonda, Visakhapatnam, Andhra Pradesh, INDIA – 530045. E-mail: madhuri.vanam1@gmail.com Abstract Buccal drug delivery is the most suited route for local as well as systemic delivery of drugs. Conventional tablet (150mg) Propafenone HCl (PP) is available in market is used three times a day for effective treatment of supraventricular tachyarrhythmiasis. The oral absorption of Propafenone HCl is dose highly variable, with short biological half life 1.0 hr and has high first-pass metabolism leading to low bioavailability. Decrease in frequency of high dose drug via buccal drug release. There is a need to formulate mucoadhesive buccal film of PP that promotes systemic delivery, bypass of hepatic first pass metabolism and improved bioavailability and reduce the repeated administration. PP buccal films were prepared by a solvent- casting technique using various concentrations of mucoadhesive-polymers such as Hydroxyl propyl methyl cellulose (HPMC) K4M, K15M and K100M as film forming as well as rate retarding polymer with different combinations of mucoadhesive polymers like Sodium CMC, Hydroxy Propyl Cellulose (HPC), propylene glycol (PG) was selected as plasticizer and ethyl-cellulose as backing-layer, which acts like a patch providing unidirectional drug release. Prepared films were evaluated for their weight variation, thickness, surface-pH, swelling-index, and drug content uniformity, in vitro residence time, folding endurance, tensile strength and in vitro release and permeability studies. The Fourier Transform Infra-Red (FTIR) spectra and DSC thermogram showed no interaction, and Physico-chemical characteristics were found within the limit. All the developed buccal films exhibited optimal physico mechanical and pharmaceutical characteristics. From the in vitro drug release studies, this study concluded that the buccal film was successfully formulated by using a combination of HPMC K100M and HPC with the potential drug retardant characteristics compared with the polymers HPMCK4M and HPMCK15M by increasing its contact time and controlling the release. The optimized formulation followed zero order kinetics. The formulation of PP mucoadhesive buccal film was found to be satisfactory and

The in vivo pharmacokinetic study was conducted in healthy rabbits and it was observed from the results that the oral bioavailability of optimized formulation (PP18) was increased significantly when compared to the marketed formulations. Relative bioavailability with respect to marketed formulation (Rythmol) was found to be 124.9. The increased bioavailability may be due to the mucoadhesive mechanism of dosage form in buccal area for longer duration.

Herein, the influence of neodymium doping on the structural, morphological, dielectric and magnetic properties of cobalt chromite ceramics synthesized via solution combustion protocol is reported. The cubic spinel phase of CoCr2O4 was confirmed from the x-ray diffraction patterns and the spherical shaped cluster formation was observed from the electron microscopic studies respectively. A remarkably small shift in the frequency of stretching vibrations of CoO4 and CrO6 clusters respectively due to neodymium doping and the formation of Co-O bond was revealed in the fourier transform infrared spectral analysis. The temperature dependent magnetization curves (ZFC and FC curves) are studied to understand the ferrimagnetic – paramagnetic transition behavior. Thus the influence of Nd doping on the M-H curves is analyzed in comparison to the host material. Due to these interesting properties these nanoceramics can be implemented for various photo catalytic /gas sensing applications.

Synthetic and non-biodegradable colours are released into natural bodies of water, harming aquatic ecosystems, human health, and aesthetics. It is vital to use water sources effectively and responsibly as global water scarcity worsens. Numerous industries, particularly the textile industry, make a substantial contribution to the creation and use of different dyes. While manufacturing, about 15% of the world's production of these dyes winds up in natural water sources. The intricacy and durability of these chemical compounds make conventional procedures for dye removal frequently ineffective.As a result, advanced oxidation processes (AOPs), like photo catalysis, have become effective methods for treating wastewater. The ability of nanoparticle (NP) catalysts to remove various organic colours from various types of wastewaters has attracted a lot of interest. The significance of NP-catalysed photo degradation is examined in this paper as a potential strategy to lessen the negative environmental effects of textile dye effluents.

Abstract: Herein, the nonlinear optical (NLO) and optical limiting (OL) properties of silver nanoparticles (NPs) and holmium ions containing borate‒based glasses were deliberatedutilizing nanosecond laser pulses at 532 nm. Initially, we studied the NLO and OL characteristics of AgCl content varied glasses and identified that the Ho3+ ‒doped glasses containing 0.5 mol% of AgCl was found to be optimized one. Then, for further tuning of the NLO traits,thermal treatment on optimized glass was carried out at 450 °C for diverse durations. The NLO absorption (two‒photon absorption) and refraction (positive) features were noted to improve with thermal treatment duration, while the OL threshold followed an opposite trend. The enhanced NLO absorption and refraction features endorse that the Ho3+ ‒doped titled glass containing 0.5 mol% of AgCl heat treated for 35h at 450 °C is beneficial for data storage, signal processing and harmonic generation functionalities. Additionally, the enhance of NLO absorption along with decrease of OL threshold results acknowledge the same glass system is useful for OL applications for suppressing high energy coherent radiationin protecting the sensitive optical components and human eye from laser damage.

Ibragimov RAS, Grozny, Russia 3 Research Institute of Physics, Southern Federal University, Rostov-on-Don, Russia e-mail: kpandryushin@gmail.com ABSTRACT In the formation of the internal (crystalline, grain) structure and macroproperties of BST ceramics, the thermodynamic background plays a predominant role, which manifests itself in a consistent change in the parameters of physical media recorded by various methods, due to the transformation of the known phase diagram of a system with one tetragonal-cubic transition to a form with two morphotropic regions with coexisting tetragonal/pseudocubic and pseudocubic/cubic phases; with features of the grain landscape with secondary recrystallized ideomorphic crystallites; with the dependence of the nature of the dielectric spectra on the degree of reduction-oxidation processes in the samples. By modifying large-sized rare-earth elements (REE) Pr, Nd, Sm and mechanical activation of the solid solutions of the BST system, it is possible to increase the permittivity many times over and enhance the reverse nonlinearity, which is important when using this effect for targeted control of the electrophysical characteristics of the objects. The formation of a strong relaxation maximum ε'/ε0 and a dispersion maximum tgδ, respectively, in the vicinity of (400…600) K and (600…800) K in BiFeO3/REE is similar to the previously discovered phenomena in Bi,-Fe- containing ceramics, the priority mechanism of which is the development of Maxwell-Wagner relaxation due to the accumulation of free charges on the interfaces of components in spatially inhomogeneous media against the background of interlayer, interfacial and intraphase rearrangements. The reason for its development is the natural composite structure of BiFeO3 and BiFeO3/REE, which arises on the basis of at least four (not counting BiFeO3) Bi,-Fe-containing compounds (Bi2O3, Fe2O3, Bi25FeO40, Bi2Fe4O3), which almost always accompany the formation of BiFeO3, remaining in it in the form of ballast phases and undergoing a series of bifurcations in the above temperature ranges.

The grain landscape is heterogeneous with crystallites whose habit is either parallelepiped (“plate”) (larger grains) or formations close to cubic (small grains). The average size of large and small grains differs several times (sometimes by an order of magnitude): from ~1.7 µm (small crystallites) to ~(3...4) µm (large crystallites).It has been observed that at Т>~700K there is a sharp increase in ε'/ε0 and ε''/ε0 in all samples the faster, then lower f. This is associated with the defectiveness of the solid solutions, due, among other things, to the variable valence of Nb and Ti, and associated with this, the formation of a large number of vacancies that “have time” to contribute to the permittivity at low frequencies. At 340K< T<550K, frequency dependent maxima ε'/ε0 (Т) (most pronounced at f>10 kHz) and anomalies at ε''/ε0 (T) are formed, associated with a diffuse phase transition from the paraelectric to the ferroelectric phase. The dependence Tm(f) fallowed the Vogel-Fulcher law in all cases. In the region of cryogenic region, an anomaly in the relative permittivity was observed, probably caused by FE → FE transition.It is shown that an increase in the CdNb2O6 content does not cause any significant changes in the dielectric and elastic properties, and that piezoelectric properties change on average by ~20%. It is useful to use the obtained results of the obtained compositions in the design of electronic devices.

It was identified that the third‒order NLO features were maximum for 30 mol% sodium oxide containing glasses. For tuning the NLO features the optimized glass host bearing gold NPs thermal treatment near glass transition temperature for different dwell times was performed. The NLO characteristics were ascertained through the Z‒scan technique using nanosecond laser pulses fired at a rate of 1 kHz at 532 nm. It was noted that, the nonlinear absorption (two‒photon), refraction (negative) and third‒order nonlinear optical susceptibility magnitudes were improved with an increase of alkali content in the composition on account of increased formation of gold NPs. The NLO coefficients were further improved to higher order with annealing duration owing to the growth of gold NPs. The outcomes endorse the 30 mol% sodium oxide bearing glass embedded with gold NPs annealed for 12 hrs at 450 °C are useful for optical limiting, harmonic generation and bio‒imaging applications to work in the visible region.

Corresponding Author: drmkkokila@gmail.com Abstract: The influence of Ag nanoparticles (NPs) on the improvement in photoluminescence and spectroscopic features of Sm3+ ‒doped alkali borate glasssynthesized by the melt quenching process was systematically studied and analyzed.The increasing particle size of Ag NPs with the increase of AgCl concentration (0.1 – 0.5%) causes the SPR peak to shift to a higher wavelength (red‒shift) side. Electron microscopic investigation confirmed the presence of silver NPs in the SmLAB‒1 glass sample with a median size of 4.64 nm.A significant enhancement in emission was recorded for 0.1 mol% AgCl concentration.Such improved emissionwas attributed to the enhanced local electric fieldby metallic NPs in the vicinity of Sm3+ ions and efficientenergy transfer between Sm3+ ions and silver NPs.The Judd–Ofelt parameter,Ω2 decreased as the concentration of Ag NPs increased, indicating increasedsymmetry and ionicity between the trivalent samarium ions and their ligands.These prepared glass compositions could have applications in solid‒state devices such as LEDs and display applications. Keywords: Borate glasses; Silver nanoparticles; Tri‒positive samarium ions; Photoluminescence; Judd‒Ofelt theory.

Jeevananda2 1 Department of Chemistry, RNS Pre-University college, Bangalore-560 098. 2 R & D Centre, Department of Chemistry, RNS Institute of Technology, Bangalore-560 098. *email: Prabhu.ramanath14@gmail.com ABSTRACT: Inverted emulsion polymerization technique was adopted to prepare composite of conducting polyaniline (PANI) and [Cu2Cl4L3].2H2O complex [L= m-aminophenyl benzimidazole] by utilizing novel benzoyl peroxide as an oxidizing agent. Polyaniline ratio was varied between 10 to 90% based on the yield percentage of PANI. The prepared polyaniline (PANI) - [Cu2Cl4L3].2H2O nanocomposites were characterized by Fourier-transform infrared spectra, Four probe conductivity, X-ray diffraction, Thermogravimetric analysis and Scanning electron microscopy. The FTIR spectrum of pure PANI and its composites with [Cu2Cl4L3].2H2O shows the vibrational bands due to N-H stretching (2941-3009cm-1 ), quinoid (1621cm-1 ) and benzenoid ring stretching (1350cm-1 ), etc. Conductivity of pure polyaniline was seen to be 1.8S/cm and upon the addition of [Cu2Cl4L3].2H2Ocomplex in increasing order the conductivity decreases. X-ray diffraction of PANI- [Cu2Cl4L3].2H2O nano- composite showed two crystalline peaks at 20.83 and 25.46 (2Ѳ). TGA thermogram of PANI- [Cu2Cl4L3].2H2O nano-composites (50/50) undergoes three step weight loss in the temperature range 32-74, 74-280 and 280-5430 C for first, second and third with a mass loss of 5, 20 and 21% respectively. Thermograms reveals that the thermal stability of pure PANI was slightly improved by the incorporation of [Cu2Cl4L3].2H2O. Coating of polyaniline on [Cu2Cl4L3].2H2O was confirmed by SEM pictures.

Jabin Science College, Hubballi, 580031, India Abstract : In this work, we report a systematic study on charge transport and thermo- electric properties of poly (3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene):poly (styrene sulfonate):poly(ethylene glycol) (PEDOT–PSS:PEG) organic thin films doped with silver nanoparticles (AgNPs). Transparent and flexible hybrid nanocomposite films were prepared by a simple strategy via bar coating technique. The effect of PEG treatment and AgNPs nanoparticles distribution in PEDOT–PSS films was examined through various characterization techniques such as scanning electron microscopy (SEM), atomic force microscopy (AFM), Fourier transform infra-red spectroscopy (FTIR), and thermo gravimetric analysis (TGA). The content of AgNPs in PEDOT– PSS: PEG was varied and optimized for 10 wt% as a percolation threshold. The addition of AgNPs and subsequent PEG treatment enhances the conductivity of PEDOT–PSS flms from 2 to 420.33 S/cm due to the removal of non-complexed PSS and synergetic interaction between PEDOT–PSS and AgNPs segments via PEG. These highly conductive nanocomposite flms were employed in an organic thermo- electric (TE) device to investigate the TE properties. These PEG treated PEDOT-PSS: AgNPs nanocomposite organic flms exhibit a enhanced power factor from 6 μW/mK2 to 85 μW/mK2 which is nearly 15 times higher than that of pure PEDOT-PSS thin flms. Due to ease of processing, flexibility, excellent charge transport, and thermo- electric properties, these PEG-treated PEDOT–PSS:AgNPs nanocomposite films can be potential thermo-electric materials for organic electronic devices operated at room temperature.

Currently, pharmaceutical scientific community interest in quantifying and screening the antioxidants from medicinal plants. For the benefit of good health, plant based antioxidants plays an important role, therefore screening for antioxidants properties of plant extracts has been one of the prime interests of scientists in this field. In this present work, Portulaca oleracea medicinal plant extract was used to study the antioxidants by electrochemical workstation through the cyclic voltammetry (CV) curves. Portulaca oleracea has been used as a traditional folk medicine in many other countries, acting as a febrifuge, antiseptic, vermifuge, and so forth. It exhibits a wide range of pharmacological effects, including antibacterial, antiulcerogenic, antiinflammatory, antioxidant, and wound-healing properties etc. Here we have collected the plant extract by two different methods soxhlet extraction and microwave assisted extraction method. We have estimated the redox behavior of Portulaca oleracea medicinal plant by different selected working electrodes (Glossy Carbon (GC), Copper Rod (Cu), Graphite Rod (Gr) and Stainless Steel rod (SS)). The prominent single redox peaks were noticed on Copper and Stainless Steel electrode than the Glossy carbon and Graphite electrodes, this may be due to the more polar nature of the electrodes. Overall, all the electrodes were detected the antioxidants through the CV curves, but Copper and Stainless Steel electrode shown a clear redox behavior.

Experimental evaluations were used to analyse the effect of the dopant onstructural and optical properties of the prepared films. The crystallinity and phase confirmation of face-centered cubic structure was done through XRD.The estimated crystallite size decreases with Gd doping concentration, assuring the appropriate inclusion of Gd dopant into the lattice. Raman spectroscopy was used to confirm the purity of the synthesised materials and the observed peak shift is caused by the increase in dopantconcentration. FTIR shows Ni-O related vibrational bands at 555 to 735 cm-1 , in addition to other absorbed vibrational modeslinked to various functional groups.According to the film's UV-visible spectra, the visible region has the highest transmittance of around average of 90%. Utilising tauc's plot relation, the optical band gap of the films was also evaluated. Due to the quantum confinement effect, a blue shift in the band gap value is seen.The findings indicate that prepared films show potential for applications in opto-electronic devices.

M4 1 Department of Physics, Dayananda Sagar Academy of Technology & Management, Bengaluru 560082 2 Department of Physics,Gokaraju Rangaraju Institute of Engineering & Technology,Hyderabad * Correspondence Author: dr.srilatha.y@gmail.com Keywords: Saturation Magnetization, Curie-Temperature, Anisotropy Abstract Due to its high coercivity and low Curie temperature, Nd2Fe14B is a well- known permanent magnet material. So off-stoichiometric 2:17 systems, Nd2Fe17MB0.05 compounds are chosen in order to further improve the magnetic properties. These are prepared by arc melting the highly pure initial elements. All of the compounds are synthesized in rhombohedral (Th2Zn17) structure with traces of - Fe, according to powder X-ray diffraction patterns. At a field of 12 kOe, the magnetization values exhibit a propensity to saturate. Honda plots were used to determine the saturation magnetization (MS) values. It was found that the MS values increased with the addition of M, which could be explained by the hybridization of the 3p(4p) band of Al, Si (Ga), and the 3d band of Fe. The inclusion of Si produced the highest MS. The Curie temperatures for these compounds were calculated and it was discovered that the addition of M caused a rise, with the addition of Ga causing the largest increase. This might be explained by TC's reliance on the density of states at EF. For the Nd2Fe17MB0.05 compounds, the existence of the (0 0 6) plane in the room-temperature XRD patterns of orientated samples suggests that the Easy Magnetization Direction (EMD) has changed from planar to uni-axial anisotropy, indicating increased anisotropy. The increase in anisotropy with the addition of M is also confirmed by the magnetization curves of the magnetically aligned samples.

Jabin Science College, Hubballi-580031, India *Corresponding authors: jagdeeshbub@gmail.com Abstract In this study, the HoFeO3 and Ho0.2Y0.8FeO3 nanoparticles were made using a solution combustion method. X-ray diffraction data support the orthorhombic structure of HoFeO3 nanoparticles as well as Ho0.2Y0.8FeO3 nanoparticles' major orthorhombic structure and minor hexagonal structure. After HoFeO3 is replaced by Y3+ , the crystallite size decreases. Rarely do peak position and intensity change when Y3+ concentration increases. The survey spectra reveal that the qualitative elemental compositions of the two samples are identical. SEM demonstrates that the materials' morphology is that of porous objects. We investigated the stretched vibration band using FTIR.Comparatively to nanoparticles with a HoFeO3 composition, the valence band components of the Ho0.2Y0.8FeO3 sample that correspond to the densities of Y3d, Fe3d, and Ho4f states are not appreciably changed by the addition of yttrium. The energies of the Fe2p3/2,1/2 X-ray photoelectron spectra of both samples are identical. Additionally, the Fe2p3/2 electron spectra had binding energies of 709.8 eV and 710.3 eV, respectively. Temperatures between 14 and 720 K were used to measure the Mössbauer spectra of YFeO3. Both materials' spectra are paramagnetic doublets with comparable characteristics at 720 K. Both samples' spectra are magnetically separated sextets at the lowest temperature (14 K).The δ(T) values of Ho0.2Y0.8FeO3 components, as well as D1, D2, S1, and S2 components, linearly rise and saturate at temperatures close to 100K. It is important to note that the D2 and S2 components of Ho0.2Y0.8FeO3 shift from 0.410 mm/s to 0.450 mm/s around 30K. The YFeO3 sextet likewise has an anomaly in the vicinity of 150K. This anomaly may potentially be related to an electronic structural rearrangement that results in a modification of the gradient of the electric field. As a result, the partial replacement of Ho3+ ions by Y3+ ions causes an increase in the Curie temperature and temperature of the spin reorientation transition.

Furthermore, its direct correlation with the identification of several diseases such as schizophrenia, anorexia, and Parkinson's disease is well-established. In this research work, a novel approach was taken where graphene quantum dots co-doped with Boron and Sulphur (BS- GQDs) were synthesized and employed for sensitive detection of dopamine. These co-doped quantum dots were utilized as a probe for fluorescence sensing without the need for labeling. This approach proved to be remarkably effective in achieving high sensitivity and specificity in detecting dopamine (DA). As DA was introduced, the fluorescence emitted by the BS-GQDs experienced substantial suppression, spanning a broad range of DA concentrations (0-340 μM). Impressively, the detection limit reached an extraordinarily low value of 3.6 μM. The mechanism behind this fluorescence quenching phenomenon was found to be photoinduced electron transfer from BS-GQDs to dopamine-quinone. This quinone is produced as a result of dopamine's oxidation in alkaline conditions. The specificity of this fluorescent sensor toward dopamine (DA) was found to be exceptionally high, underscoring its selectivity. The implications of this study are significant, as it paves the way for the development of an affordable biosensor with potential applications in analyzing real samples.

In this study, Lu3+ doped Zinc ferrites were prepared by chemical synthesis method by using urea and glucose as fuels for the first time. The prepared powder samples were subjected to several analyses, including X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and Energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), to examine the structural and morphological changes in ZnFe2-xLuxo4 (where x = 0, 0.1, 0.3, 0.5 and 0.7). The XRD results show that a single phase was formed without any impurity peak, as confirmed by XRD. The FTIR spectra exhibited two prominent bands at 532 cm-1 and 360 cm-1 , which are characteristic features of spinel ferrite. SEM micrographs revealed that the nanoparticles were almost spherical in shape, porous in nature, and fairly uniform in size. Further analysis of the nanoparticle with EDAX confirmed the elemental composition. The humidity sensing behavior of Lu doped ZnFe2O4 was tested in the relative humidity range of 11 to 97%.

Tripathi1,* 1 Department of Physics, Centre of Advanced Study in Physics, Panjab University, Chandigarh- 160014, INDIA * Corresponding author: surya@pu.ac.in Abstract Nowadays, researchers are fascinated by non-linear optics (NLO) because of their numerous applications in optoelectronics. Several materials show NL optical behaviour in the presence of highly intense laser beams, but our main emphasis is on the transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) because of their unique optical, electrical and structural properties. We have studied the NLO properties of two- dimensional MoS2/PVA nanocomposite asMoS2 is a promising material due to its tuneable optical properties. In this work, we have synthesized the polymer nanocomposites with three different concentrations of MoS2 within the polymer matrix using in-situ method. Further, a thin film of MoS2/PVA nanocomposites has been deposited onto the glass substrate by the drop-casting method. XRD spectra reveal the structural properties of synthesized nanocomposites. The Linear emission spectra and absorption spectra of the film is studied using photoluminescence (PL) and UV-visible (UV-Vis) spectroscopy respectively. The band gap of the prepared thin film is calculated using the Tauc plot. The Z-scan method is employed to investigate its NLO parameters i.e.; NL absorption coefficient (β), NL refractive index (n2) and the third-order NLO susceptibility (χ(3) ). We have used a continuous-wave He-Ne laser with a wavelength of 633 nm in the Z-scan experiment. We have observed that MoS2/PVA nanocomposite thin film exhibits saturable absorption (SA) and self-defocusing behaviour. The β value is determined using open aperture trace and the n2 value is determined using closed aperture trace. Further, χ(3) is calculated using β and n2 values. We have observed that MoS2/PVA nanocomposites have fascinating linear and NLO properties which make it a suitable material for various applications such as telecommunication, optical switching, etc.

Tripathi1, a) 1 Department of Physics, Center of Advanced Study in Physics, Panjab University, Chandigarh-160014, INDIA a) Corresponding author: surya@pu.ac.in ABSTRACT With a view to creating specialized biomedical applications, the utilization of nanoparticles for anticancer therapies has now emerged as a key research objective. Over the past few decades, I-III-VI has gained more interest than II-VI or IV-VI because these nanoparticles are less toxic, cadmium-free, and possess excellent optical properties. In this paper, we have reported the encapsulation of Quercetin on CIS nanoparticles. The conjugation has been done by using two different approaches. In the first approach, Quercetin is directly added to the CIS nanoparticles and in the second one, Quercetin is added along with the cross-linker like EDC and NHS, which act as a stabilizer, to the CIS nanoparticles. Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) Spectroscopy confirms the conjugation of quercetin with the CIS nanoparticles through the reaction between the carboxyl group of GSH-capped CIS nanoparticles and the hydroxyl group of quercetin. This paper includes the study of change in the optical properties of CIS nanoparticles after the Quercetin is conjugated on them with two different methods, with stabilizer, and without stabilizer. The optical properties include the UV- Visible (UV-Vis) spectroscopy and photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy.There is quenching in the fluorescence intensity of the CIS nanoparticles after the drug Quercetin is conjugated with CIS nanoparticles in both the cases with and without cross-linkers. The outcomespoint to a successful chemical conjugation of quercetin to CIS nanoparticles, which opens the door to future uses in drug delivery.

Our research focuses on the humidity-sensing properties of MgFe2-yLiyO4 (with varying lithium-ion concentrations) synthesized through the solution combustion synthesis method. We analyzed the powder samples using powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) and observed their humidity-sensing behavior. Our results showed that with an increase in lithium-ion concentration, the lattice parameter (8.373 to 8.375Å), unit cell volume (586-588 Å), and crystallite size (16-19 nm) all increased. The PXRD confirmed that the nanomaterial had a single Fd3m space group phase. We used this powder to create a humidity sensor, and our research showed that the addition of Li2+ increased the resistance, with the maximum enhancement observed at Li = 0.05, resulting in the highest average sensitivity. Overall, the synthesized materials show promise for humidity sensor applications with excellent stability and strong repeatability.

The generated powderwas analyzed using the XRD method, and the results showed that a nanocrystalline face-centred cubic spinal structure had been formed. Using Scherrer's method, we got an estimate for the crystallite size of the entire sample. All characterizations were investigated by performing gamma irradiation experiments before and after the Co60 source. After gamma irradiation, the lattice parameter decreases with rising Sm3+ concentration and increases due to the conversion of ferric ions with a smaller radius into ferrous ions with a larger radius. This happens because ferric ions are changed into ferrous ions. The dielectric characteristics were investigated at room temperature over the frequency range of 100 Hz to 5 MHz while the void was present. As the frequency of the measurements increases, the dielectric constant fluctuation with the samples' frequency reduces, eventually attaining a stable value on the higher frequency side. According to the variation, the dispersion can be attributed to an interfacial polarisation of the Maxwell-winger type. This finding is consistent with Koop's phenomenological hypothesis. When the hopping frequency of localized charge carriers is almost equal to that of the externally applied electric field, a phenomenon known as resonance occurs. This allows for observing peaks in the variation of loss tangent with frequency. This may be due to the displacement of Fe3+ ions from the A-site to the B-site. The dielectric constant loss tangent for irradiated samples is more significant than that for unirradiated materials.

Email: vndevi@gmail.com Abstract India is the fourth-largest exporter of fish and fish products. The marine ecology and coastal areas are polluted as a result of the garbage accumulation of marine sources. Chitosan is derived from chitin, which is commonly found in the shells of crustaceans like shrimp and crabs. It has gained attention in various industries due to its unique properties, including biodegradability, non-toxicity, and biocompatibility. Chitosan has applications in areas such as food and pharmaceuticals, agriculture, wastewater treatment, and more. Iron-doped chitosan refers to chitosan that has been modified by incorporating iron ions into its structure. In the present study, crab shells were collected, processed, and chitin and thereby chitosan weresynthesized. Chitosan was prepared and iron oxide was doped with chitosan and iron oxide doped chitosan was prepared. FTIR, XRD, SEM, and EDS were used to characterize the prepared materials. The functional group of chitosan and the incorporation of iron in iron oxide doped chitosan are confirmed by the FTIR. Using the Debye-Scherrer equation and a particle size analyzer, the particle size of iron oxide doped chitosan was determined as 41.112 nm and 41.196 nm, respectively. The presence of iron peaks in the EDS spectrum confirms the successful incorporation of iron oxide nanoparticles into the chitosan matrix. The batch adsorption studies were carried out to determine the removal efficiency of chitosan and iron oxide doped chitosan to remove copper ions from aqueous solution. The adsorption parameters studied includes pH, initial metal ion concentration and dosage of the sorbent. Adsorption isotherms like Langmuir and Freundlich were analysed.

ARUNA *1 , C. M. JOSEPH1 , S. M. NAVEEN1 , K. KESHAVAMURTHY1 1 Department of Applied Physics, Dayananda Sagar college of Engineering, Bangalore-560078 Abstract: Poly (3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) is a semiconducting polymer that has been studied for use in light-activated memory devices. The switching property of P3HT thin films can be improved by doping with fullerenes. Fullerenes are molecules that have a cage- like structure and can act as charge carriers in P3HT. The effect of fullerene doping on the light switching property of P3HT thin films has been studied by a number of researchers. In general, it has been found that the light switching property of P3HT thin films improves with increasing fullerene concentration up to a critical value. Above this critical value, the light switching property decreases. This study investigated the effect of fullerene concentration on the light switching property of P3HT thin films. P3HT thin films were doped with different concentrations of C60 fullerene. The light switching property of the thin films was measured by Agilent high resistance meter. The films were exposed to light ON/OFF states with respect to time for studying the light switching property of the films. The results showed that the light switching property of P3HT thin films improved with increasing fullerene concentration up to a concentration of 10%. Above this concentration, the light switching property decreased. This is because the high concentration of fullerene molecules can interfere with the charge transport in the P3HT molecules. The results of this study showed that the light switching property of P3HT thin films is dependent on concentration of fullerene doping. Further research is needed to fully understand the effect of fullerene doping on the light switching property of P3HT thin films.

In this report, the synthesis of a variety of CoFe-NC materials with controllable atomic dispersion of the two metals has been achieved. We confirm the atomic dispersion of Co and Fe components in CoFe-NC materials and uncover evidence of a strong synergistic interaction between atomic Co and Fe in the context of the electron-donating and electron-withdrawing properties of Co and Fe, respectively. With an ORR half-wave potential (E1/2) of 0.85 V and a low OER overpotential of 467 mV at 10 mA/cm2 (Ej=10), electrochemical measurements showed that CoFe-NC can serve as an excellent bifunctional electrocatalyst for ORR and OER in alkaline medium. The superior ORR/OER activity of CoFe-NC material compared to a mixture of commercial Pt/C and RuO2elcetrocatalysts (ΔE=0.911 V) is further supported by the small potential window in terms of the potential gap (ΔE) between ORR E1/2 and OER Ej=10 (0.849 V).

Singh2 , V.K. Verma1,# 1 Department of Physics, School of Advanced Sciences, VIT-AP University, Amaravati, 522237, India 2 Department of Physics, Central University of South Bihar, Gaya 824236, India ABSTRACT Recently, spinel ferrite(AB2O4) has gained a lot of attention, exhibits excellent magnetic properties including high magnetic permeability and low magnetic losses, making them useful in different applications like in electronics devices,telecommunication, magnetic sensors, transformer etc. due to its high curie temperature, low cost, chemical stability, sufficiently low dielectric loss over a wide range of frequency. Based on its crystal structure spinel ferrites are classified into three types such as normal spinel ferrite, inverse spinel ferrite and complex spinel ferrite. Nickel ferrites have an inverse spinel structure, in which trivalent ion Fe3+ located at the tetrahedral A sites whereas the divalent nickel ions (Ni2+ ) located at the octahedral B sites, Fe3+ ions easily distributed in between A and B sites. This arrangement shows unique magnetic behavior, which useful in various applications like in catalyst, magnetic sensor, microwave devices, also use in biomedical applications. Single-phase multiferroic materials are limited and exhibit weak magnetoelectric coupling (1– 20mV/cm-Oe) at room temperature. On the other hand, composite material made-up of two different ferroic phases e.g., ferroelectric and ferromagnetic materials show strong magnetoelectric coupling.In this work, we proposed a new model to overcome the weak magnetoelectric (ME) coupling effect. Here, we have developed two phase artificial ME composite by alternate planner multilayers of ferroelectric (BaTiO3) and ferromagnetic (NiFe2O4) layers which shows strong magnetoelectric coupling. The ME coupling increases as the interface to volume ratio of the multilayers increases. The enhancement of the ME coupling may be suitable for new device applications and can be controlled both electrically and magnetically.

Modifying and tuning these surface properties to suit the specific demand for better performance is feasible and has been vastly employed in a different aspect of life. This can be achieved by coating the surface via deposition of the thin film. The selection process for the majority of the materials may be founded on the texture, aesthetic and color, but functional engineered materials cannot only depend on the physical appearance and bulk properties but also on the surface characteristics composition especially in the area of applications where surface contact behaviour is of paramount priority. Functional engineered components must be able to satisfactorily perform desired purposes efficiently and successfully. Alteration of the surfaces can be manifested using different techniques of surface engineering of materials. The surfaces of metallic materials are made up of a matrix of individual discrete grains with variation in sizes and bond strength. Surface engineered materials have augmented and improved performance, added functionality, reduced cost, improved material usage efficiency and provided performance which would not be possible with bulk materials.

On the basis of differential Scanning caslorimetry(DSC), the properties of thermal stability and glass transition were described. The explanation for the produced glasses' luminescence behaviour was based on the optical absorption and emission spectra that were captured at various excitation levels. After activation with blue and near-infrared wavelength photons, respectively, intense green and yellowish-green emissions were found. With the use of a power dependency analysis, the upconversion procedure and colour tuning emission characteristics were thoroughly addressed.

Our research focuses on the humidity-sensing properties of MgFe2-yLiyO4 (with varying lithium-ion concentrations) synthesized through the solution combustion synthesis method. We analyzed the powder samples using powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) and observed their humidity-sensing behavior. Our results showed that with an increase in lithium-ion concentration, the lattice parameter (8.373 to 8.375Å), unit cell volume (586-588 Å), and crystallite size (16-19 nm) all increased. The PXRD confirmed that the nanomaterial had a single Fd3m space group phase. We used this powder to create a humidity sensor, and our research showed that the addition of Li2+ increased the resistance, with the maximum enhancement observed at Li = 0.05, resulting in the highest average sensitivity. Overall, the synthesized materials show promise for humidity sensor applications with excellent stability and strong repeatability. Additionally, the thin-film humidity sensor we manufactured had response and recovery durations of 9 and 12 seconds, respectively.

Zabolotnyi, Stanislav P. Kubrin, Nikita V. Ter-Oganessian Research Institute of Physics, Southern Federal University, 344090, Rostov-on-Don, Russian Federation e-mail: zabolotnyi@sfedu.ru Abstract: Compounds with the spinel structure AB2X4 (A and B – metals, X – O, S, Se, Te) demonstrate a wide variety of compositions due to the wide substitution possibilities both in cationic A and B and in the anionic sublattice X. This also determines the variety of physical properties of spinels, which allows us to consider them as promising functional materials. The diversity of magnetic phenomena in spinelsmakes promising the search for compounds or solid solutions that are multiferroic or exhibit a linear magnetoelectric effect (ME),however a relatively small number of suchspinels have been discovered [1]. A necessary condition for the occurrence of a magnetoelectric couplingis the absence of a center of inversion of the crystal structure. In spinels, the presence of different kinds of atoms in cationic sublattices can suppress the center of inversion due to the possibility of atomic ordering. Thus, LiFe5O8 spinel has high ferrimagnetic ordering temperatures and exists in two modifications: disordered (sp.gr. Fd3 ̅m) and ordered (sp.gr.P4132 and P4332). The latternoncentrocymmetric structure is characterized by a 1:3 atomic ordering of Li and Fe in the B-sublattice, but admits, however, only a quadratic ME. Previously, the existence of linear ME in spinels of type 𝐴1/2 ′ 𝐴1/2 ′′ 𝐵2𝑋4 with 1:1 atomic ordering in the A-sublatticewas predicted, which leads to a decrease in symmetry to F4 ̅3m [2], however, such compounds have not yet been experimentally detected. In this paper, the synthesis of solid solutions (1-x)LiZn2.5Ti2.5O8 – xLiFe5O8was carried out by the solid-phase method. The crystal structures of the obtained solid solutions were investigated by X-ray diffraction analysis and refined by the Rietveld method, the magnetic ordering temperatures and the local crystalline environment of iron were studied by the Mössbauer spectroscopy method, and magnetic hysteresis loops were studied at room temperature. The work was carried out with the financial support of the Ministry of Science and Higher Education of the Russian Federation (State assignment in the field of scientific activity, project № FENW-2023-0015).

Advantageously, WO3 films werecoated directly on the glass substrate in hydrothermal reaction at temperature 90°C for 3h.Utilizing X-ray diffractometry (XRD), the crystallographic analysis has definitively verified the emergence of exceedingly crystalline nanostructures of WO3. These structures exhibit an interplanar spacing (d) of 0.32 nm and a crystallite dimension of 18.23 nm.The flower-like WO3 nanostructure is visualized utilizing surface morphological analyses using field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDAX) study has confirmed the existence of W and O. During the Raman spectroscopy assessment, the spectrum portraying the synthesized WO3 nanostructures revealed distinct, well-defined peaks of a crystalline characteristic. Notably, an intense peak at 811 cm-1 corresponds to the stretching mode of the O─W─O bond. Additional features include a relatively less intense peak at 242 cm-1 and a subtle shoulder peak at 329 cm-1 , both indicative of the bending mode associated with the W─O─W bond.The Fourier transform infra-red (FT IR) spectroscopy analysis confirms the result obtained from the Raman spectroscopy. The chemiresistive basedgas sensor wasfabricatedusing the as-prepared WO3film. Theas- fabricated gas sensor was tested for diversetargetgases as NO2, NH3, CO2, H2S, SO2, and CO.The sensor has exhibitedmaximum response for NO2 gas at 200o C.The least concentration has detected by the as-fabricated WO3 sensor was 1 ppm. Remarkable gas sensing performance of WO3 sensor arises from its inherent structural properties, as evidenced by crystallographic and Raman spectroscopy analyses. The interplay between its crystallinity, interplanar spacing, and electronic configurations confers a high degree of sensitivity to NO2 molecules, thus positioning WO3 as a compelling option for advanced gas sensing technologies.

Suhasini V. Kotura , M. Y. Kariduraganavara* Department of Studies in Chemistry, Karnatak University Dharwad-580003,India Email Id: suhamk23@gmail.com Over the last few decades, several industries have been focused much on the development of new membranes for better performance in the separation of azeotropic mixtures, close boiling liquids and isomers.Pervaporation is the most efficient and core technique in membrane separation because of low energy consumption, cheap, ecofriendly, good output results.Itprovidesseveral advantages over typical techniques such as distillation and solvent extraction. Employing a solution - casting technique, chitosan crosslinked with polystyrene sulfonic acid -co- maleic acid and subsequently modified by the incorporation of different wt% of diethyl phthalate as a plasticizer in order to obtain soft and flexible polymeric membranes.Chitosan has a good film forming properties, good mechanical strength and functional groups present in this can be easily modified.Here we made use of polystyrene sulfonic acid -co -maleic acid (PSSMA) as a cross linker to enhance selectivity and to increase hydrophilicity of the membrane. Excess of cross linkers make membranes to be brittle which is not suitable for pervaporation process. So to overcome this problem, we have made use of plasticizer in the membrane preparation.The physico-chemical properties of resulting membranes were characterized by using different techniques like Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, wide-angle X-ray diffraction (WXRD), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), Thermogravimetric analysis(TGA)and Water contact angle. Polyelectrolyte complex membranes weretested for their potentiality to separate water/tert butanol mixture. By the experimental results, flux and selectivity will be calculated.Separation of azeotropic mixtures will become easier one due to flexibility in the membrane matrix Keywords: Chitosan,Pervaporation, Selectivity,Separation

In this study, Zinc acetate dihydrateis converted into ZONPs using aqueous extracts of waste peels viz. onion, potato and tomato peels and characterized by UV spectroscopy.UV–vis spectral studies have been performed to calculate the band gap and nanoparticle size to correlate the particle sizes with theUV–vis absorption wavelength.The optical band gap values of the prepared ZONPs nanoparticle were found to be higher (3.49-3.64 eV) than the standard value (3.37eV) which indicated the presence of blue-shift and increase in absorption of sunlight irradiation by ZONPs. The present study proposed an eco-friendly methodfor ZOPN synthesis as a relatively inexpensive and economical method for their multifaceted possible applications.

In case of a developing country, energy sector assumes a critical importance in view of the ever increasing energy needs requiring huge investment to meet them. Energy planning in our country is not an integrated activity. The plans for electricity, oil, coal and firewood are separate exercises. Secondly, the planning activity considers only the demand and projects the demand over a period of years. The efficiency in utilization has not been investigated. The primary goal of planners is for supply expansions based on the assumption of linkage between energy consumption and the economic growth of a region. With this approach, energy becomes an end in itself and the focus shifts on meeting increased energy consumption through energy supply expansion alone. This supply and demand based planning for each individual energy form has resulted in problems like inefficiency, losses, more conversions and other environmental problems. This conflict between energy demand and environmental quality goals can be solved by an integrated approach to the problem of energy planning with emphasis to minimize the consumption of non-renewable sources of energy such as coal, oil, etc., to maximize the efficiency of end use devices in all sectors and to organize an approach towards optimal use of renewable sources. This path would certainly help in boosting economic growth of a region and equally important, it promotes structural changes that are conductive to overall development. Distributed generation may have a significant impact on the system and equipment operation in terms of steady state operation, dynamic operation, reliability, power quality stability and safety for both customer and electricity suppliers. This impact may manifest itself either positively or negatively, depending on the distribution system, distributed generator and load characteristics.

Zabolotnyi, Stanislav P. Kubrin, Nikita V. Ter-Oganessian Research Institute of Physics, Southern Federal University, 344090, Rostov-on-Don, Russian Federation e-mail: zabolotnyi@sfedu.ru Compounds with the spinel structure AB2X4 (A and B – metals, X – O, S, Se, Te) demonstrate a wide variety of compositions due to the wide substitution possibilities both in cationic A and B and in the anionic sublattice X. This also determines the variety of physical properties of spinels, which allows us to consider them as promising functional materials. The diversity of magnetic phenomena in spinelsmakes promising the search for compounds or solid solutions that are multiferroic or exhibit a linear magnetoelectric effect (ME),however a relatively small number of suchspinels have been discovered [1]. A necessary condition for the occurrence of a magnetoelectric couplingis the absence of a center of inversion of the crystal structure. In spinels, the presence of different kinds of atoms in cationic sublattices can suppress the center of inversion due to the possibility of atomic ordering. Thus, LiFe5O8 spinel has high ferrimagnetic ordering temperatures and exists in two modifications: disordered (sp.gr. Fd3 ̅m) and ordered (sp.gr.P4132 and P4332). The latternoncentrocymmetric structure is characterized by a 1:3 atomic ordering of Li and Fe in the B-sublattice, but admits, however, only a quadratic ME. Previously, the existence of linear ME in spinels of type 𝐴1/2 ′ 𝐴1/2 ′′ 𝐵2𝑋4with 1:1 atomic ordering in the A-sublatticewas predicted, which leads to a decrease in symmetry to F4 ̅3m [2], however, such compounds have not yet been experimentally detected. In this paper, the synthesis of solid solutions (1- x)LiZn2.5Ti2.5O8 – xLiFe5O8was carried out by the solid-phase method. The crystal structures of the obtained solid solutions were investigated by X-ray diffraction analysis and refined by the Rietveld method, the magnetic ordering temperatures and the local crystalline environment of iron were studied by the Mössbauer spectroscopy method, and magnetic hysteresis loops were studied at room temperature. The work was carried out with the financial support of the Ministry of Science and Higher Education of the Russian Federation (State assignment in the field of scientific activity, project № FENW-2023-0015).

In this work we report the humidity sensing characteristics of Dysprosium doped Mg-Rb ferrites synthesized by solution combustion synthesis route. The produced Mg0.9Rb0.1DyxFe2-xO4 powder have been examined using energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), field effect scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR). According to the results of powder XRD, unit cell volume(590-502Ao ) and crystallite size(40-26 nm) decrease when Dysprosium ion concentration increases. The nanomaterial has a single phase with the Fd3m space group, according to the PXRD. The presence of Mg, Rb, Fe, Dy, and O elements is confirmed by EDX. The samples are highly porous nature(8 to 24%) and high surface volume(0.71-0.76). The spinel ferrite structure is clearly visible in the FTIR spectra, and the bands in the high-frequency region illustrate how hygroscopic the produced materials are. The fabricated powder is employed in the creation of a humidity sensor as a sensing component. It is noted that, the composition of Dy3+ increases the enhance in the resistance and is maximum for Mg0.9Rb0.1Dy0.03Fe1.97O4 composite and is determined to have the highest average sensitivity (600 M/%RH). the composition of the Dysprosium (Dy) increases the resistance is enhanced and is maximum for the Mn0.9 Rb0.1 Dy0.03Fe2-0.03O4 composite. Hence our results are good enough for sensor applications. The manufactured thin film humidity sensor has response and recovery durations of 18 and 90 seconds, respectively. The discovered sensing material has outstanding stability and strong repeatability (98%). Key words: Humidity, sensitivity, Recovery time, ferrites.

Kariduraganavar a, * a Department of Chemistry, Karnatak University, Dharwad, 580003, Karnataka, India. * Department of Chemistry, Karnatak University, Dharwad, 580003, Karnataka, India. Abstract The pollution of heavy metal ions seriously threatens environmental health and the human race. Mercury has been recognized as atoxic environmental contaminant. The convenient and affordable method for the detection of Hg(II) is a demand of time. To address this issue, we have synthesized novel cobalt Phthalocyanine (TACoPc) containing a thiol bridge at its periphery and characterized by various spectroscopic techniques. The presence of nanoparticles is confirmed by SEM-EDS and Dynamic light scattering particle size analyzer. The detection of Hg(II) was carried out by coating TACoPc on a Glassy carbon electrode(GCE). The detection of Hg(II) was carried out using different electrochemical techniques like cyclic voltammetry(CV), Differential pulse voltammetry(DPV) and Amperometric i-t curve. The modified TACoPc sensor electrode was found to have a good sensitivity of 7.460 μAnM-1 L-1 and a limit of detection (LOD) of 0.47087 nM for Hg(II) was achieved by DPV. The modified composite electrode is highly selective towards Hg(II) without any interference towards interfering ions such as Co(II), Al(III), Mg(II), Ni(II), Pb(II), Cd(II), Sn(II), Mn(II),Cu(II), and Cr(IV) at higher concentrations. The modified TACoPc sensor electrode possessed good stability and reproducibility. The excellent performance can be attributed to the characteristic nanostructure of TACoPc. This electrochemical sensing technique is predicted to expand the scope of electrochemical determination and perform well in the investigation of environmental pollutants.

ABSTRACT Since from the dawn of civilization, garnets played a key role in microwave applications. Because of their high stress sensitivity, high cost and low Curie temperature, many researchers initiated the study on Li, CO, Mg ferrite groups, due to the low cost, low eddy current losses, high Curie temperature and high magnetization. The spinel structure is physically flexible and leads to a variety of physical properties and hence applications. Ferrites on Nano scale are versatile groups of materials having unique electric and magnetic properties which cannot be achieved by same materials in bulk form. Therefore they are promising materials for energy conversion, energy storage as well as environmental concern, because of their super paramagnetic behaviour. The present work deals with an experimental exercise to investigate the relations between microstructure and physical properties of Al doped Zn-Co Nano ferrites with general chemical formula 𝑍𝑛0.5 𝐶𝑜0.5𝐴𝑙𝑥𝐹𝑒2−𝑥𝑂4 with 0<x<1, using AR grade nitrates, sucrose, PVA in molar proportion, to maintain stoichiometry. X ray diffraction studies confirm the formation of single phase fcc structure, belonging to Fd-3m space group. The shifting of peaks is attributed to the distribution of host elements at A and B sites. The variation in the intensity of peaks with composition is assigned to the capacity of Al ions to dissolve into the spinel lattice. The variation of lattice parameter with dopant obeys Vegard’s law. FTIR studies help to investigate the absorption bands.

B., and B. V .R Tata Centre for Interdisciplinary Research, GITAM (Deemed to be) University, Visakhapatnam,530045, India Abstract Monolayer photonic crystals consisting of self-assembled silica colloidal particles are created using self-assembly. These crystals serve as a platform for detecting the hazardous dye molecule known as Rhodamine 6G (R6G) through the Surface- Enhanced Raman Scattering (SERS) technique. The silica colloidal photonic crystal monolayer is adorned with gold nanoparticles, synthesized using laser ablation, to enable SERS activity. The outcomes demonstrate that this combination of photonic crystal and gold nanoparticles significantly enhances the detection of trace amounts of R6G molecules using SERS. Electromagnetic simulations were conducted to comprehend the impact of photonic crystals on electric field enhancement, both with and without gold nanoparticles. The findings indicate that placing the gold nanoparticles in the high electric field zone of the silica photonic crystal monolayer furtheramplifies the electric field. This augmentation greatly contributes to boosting the SERS signal,thereby facilitating the detection of minuscule quantities of analyte molecules.

E-mail: zyy971218@163.com Abstract: Barium molybdate (BaMoO4) in the scheelite family can be applied as an excellent host crystal for luminescent materials, phosphors conversion light-emitting diodes, optoelectronic devices, anti-interference labeling materials, optical temperature sensors, displays, fluorescent labeling, biological research, photocatalytic degradation of dyes and drugs because of its strong Mo-O bond, wide absorption band, high thermal stability, outstanding physical/chemical stability, relatively low phonon energy, environmentally friendly, high charge transfer and separation efficiency. According to the current known BaMoO4 related studies, it can be found that in the crystal with BaMoO4 as host, most of the rare elements of lanthanide are doped, and doping of excellent host BaMoO4 needs to be carried out at the Ba2+ position. BaMoO4 phosphors doped with different ions of rare earth elements will excite different colors. Rare earth elements doped AMoO4 molybdate (A=Ba2+ , Ca2+ , Pb2+ , Sr2+ ) have a wide range of applications in the preparation of phosphors, so it has potential application prospects in light-emitting diodes and photochemical devices. The introduction of rare earth elements into molybdate can reduce the use of sulfide and nitride phosphors to a certain extent, reduce costs, and reduce the harm caused by volatile, unstable and toxic shortcomings. However, up to now, no correlation has been found with high-entropy alloy (HEA) coupling with the BaMoO4, through the combination of HEA and BaMoO4to construct HEA/BaMoO4 composite phosphors can reduce the use of rare earth elements. On the basis of previous research, our team focuses on the study of HEA/BaMoO4 composite phosphors, mainly in the areas of optical and photoluminescence properties of HEA/BaMoO4 composite phosphors, application in fingerprint recognition, and intelligent algorithms predict photoluminescence properties of HEA/BaMoO4 composite phosphors. In this study, the photoluminescence properties of HEA with different mass ratios of BaMoO4were investigated. By studying the photoluminescence and photocatalytic properties, the correlation mechanism between the two properties was discussed. In the course of
- 148. International Conference on Recent Trends in Advanced Materials-2023 School of Physical Sciences KLE’s P.C.Jabin Science College, Hubballi Page 127 previous studies, no fingerprint recognition phosphors with BaMoO4 as the host crystal were found, and BaMoO4/HEA phosphors were first proposed. Under ultraviolet excitation at 282nm, there are two emission peaks at 400and 440nm. Notably, back propagation (BP) neural network model has been widely used to predict the optical properties and photocatalytic activity of semiconductor materials. However, BP neural networks are prone to local minimization and have certain disadvantages in accurate prediction in the global scope. Therefore, the genetic algorithmoptimized BP neural network has been used to predict the photoluminescence properties of HEA/BaMoO4composite phosphors. The results show that the genetic algorithm can avoid abovedisadvantages and thus have more accurate prediction performance. The results of this research will help to synthesize other types of the composite phosphors and open up their applications in the field of fingerprint recognition.

Membrane technology has emerged as a crucial answer to this challenge, allowing for the recycling and reuse of various contaminated water. However, membrane process enables only the separation of pollutants from water and not their degradation. Alternatively, incorporation of photocatalytic materials in membranes could lead to the degradation of pollutants during or post membrane separation. To achieve this,Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are one of the high surface area materials employed for various applications. Realizing their ability in photocatalytic applications, MOFs have been used as a host photocatalyst, co-catalyst and supporting material. Therefore, many explorations have been done on varying the metals and ligands in MOFs to tune their photocatalytic properties. In this direction, the metal-precursors and methods used for MOF synthesis play an interesting role in tuning the properties of MOFs, especially when it comes to the bimetallic MOFs. In this context, herein, we have synthesized bimetallic FeNi-MOFs fromFeNi-based layered double hydroxides (LDH) and terephthalic acidas ligands. TheseLDH- derived FeNi-MOFs are studied for their structural, morphological, optical and surface properties and pollutant degradation under direct sunlight irradiation in comparison with FeNi-MOFs synthesized using the respective metal precursors.Then, the D-FeNi MOFparticles are integrated into polysulfone (PSF) membranes by phase inversion method with different wt% ratios and investigated their photocatalytic dye degradation and separation efficiencies. Due to the excellent coordination of the organic moieties with membrane polymers, the MOFs integrated membranes show better performance as compared to the bare. Accordingly, the possible photocatalytic mechanism has been proposed based on the structure-property relationships of MOF- membrane tuned for the effective optimization of their scale up photocatalytic membrane applications.

Subsequently, the phase structure, microstructure, valence state, chemical composition, optical and photocatalytic activity of NiAl2O4nano-powders are studied by a series of advanced characterization methods. The results indicated that the phase purity of spinel NiAl2O4 can be affected by different metal salts during the preparation process. When using Al2(SO4)3·18H2O as aluminum salts and anhydrous NiSO4 and NiSO4·6H2O as nickel salts, the phase structure of NiAl2O4nano-powders are unaffected. However, the phase structure will be changed due to the presence of small amounts of NiO by usingAl(NO3)3·9H2O as aluminum salts and anhydrous NiSO4 and NiSO4·6H2O as nickel salts. Then, the photocatalytic activity of NiAl2O4nano-powders for the degradation of tetracycline (TC) hydrochloride under simulated sunlight irradiation is evaluated by photocatalytic experiments and response surface methodology (RSM). When the concentration of TC solution is 50 mg/L and the concentration of catalyst is 1 g/L, the degradation percentage of pure NiAl2O4 is the highest reaching 86.3%. Meanwhile, the degradation percentage of impure NiAl2O4 is lower than pure NiAl2O4 due to NiO only has a high degradation percentage under ultraviolet light and it inhibits the degradation of TC by NiAl2O4. The RSM results show that the NiAl2O4nano-powders has an excellent photocatalytic activity when the pH value is neutral. If the pH value is adjusted to strong acidity or strong alkalinity, the performance of NiAl2O4nano-powders will be reduced. So the pure NiAl2O4 as an environmentally friendly photocatalyst is helpful to the degradation of TC solution at pH=7. A reasonable degradation pathway was proposed by mass spectrometry and toxicity estimation.

International Conference on Recent Trends in Advanced Materials-2023 School of Physical Sciences KLE’s P.C.Jabin Science College, Hubballi Page 135 A theoretical DFT/HSE06 investigation of metallic doping Nb, Fe and Ni doping in MgB2 material and effect on crystalline and electronic structure. Guilherme Bonifácio Rosa1 , Sérgio Ricardo de Lázaro1 , Luis Henrique da Silveira Lacerda2 1 Universidade Estadual de Ponta Grossa (UEPG), 2 Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina email:gbonifacioros@gmail.com / srlazaro@uepg.br Abstract The MgB2 compound finds extensive use in superconductor research and electronic device development. Literature documents the modification of this material through the introduction of transition metals at the Mg site. This includes employing MgB2 for cost-effective fabrication of superconductor wires, showing promise for electronic and magnetic resonance device applications. The material's hexagonal P6/mmm space group provides adaptability for alterations involving transition metals at the Mg site [1]. Computational simulations conducted in this study utilized the DFT/HSE06 methodology within the CRYSTAL17 software, complemented by the VESTA viewer. Specific Gaussian basis sets were assigned to Mg, B, Ni, Fe, and Nb atoms, denoted as 8-511G, m-6-311G(d), TZVP, s8411p6411d441, and 986-31(631d)G, respectively. The material Mg0.875X0.125B2 (where X = Nb, Fe, and Ni) was modeled within a 2x2x2 supercell, focusing on the Mg site. Investigation of the electronic characteristics relied on the analysis of Electronic Band Structure (EBS) and Density of States (DOS). Comparison of quantum simulations for MgB2 with literature's reported cell parameters (a = b = 3.073 Å and c = 3.553 Å) confirms its robust crystalline structure calculated. The introduction of Ni, Fe, and Nb dopants causes minor distortions in the a and b parameters, while a significant distortion occurs in the c parameter. Specifically, Nb, Ni, and Fe doping leads to a contraction in the c parameter, indicating layer approximation. Examination of the Electronic Band Structure reveals that the presence of magnetic cations in Fe and Ni-doped materials induces the formation of a Dirac Cone in the beta channel at symmetry point A. In contrast, the Dirac Cone appears in both the alpha and beta channels at Г and A points for Nb- doped material. Furthermore, the Dirac Cone profile is more pronounced in Fe and Ni-doped materials, with clearer intersection points among the Bands.

Understanding this behavior in a Pm-3m cubic crystallographic arrangement presents a challenge. To address this, DFT quantum simulations using the HSE06 functional were performed within the CRYSTAL17 software. Gaussian basis sets, namely HAYWSC- 311(d11f)G, 86-411d41G, and 8-411d11G, were utilized to describe Sr, Fe, and O atoms respectively. A supercell of size 1x1x2 was constructed to investigate the magnetic ordering on the [Fe-O-Fe] connection within two [FeO6] magnetic clusters, both in ferromagnetic (FM) and antiferromagnetic (AFM) configurations, while considering the presence of an oxygen vacancy (Vo) as a perturbation. Electronic profiles were evaluated through analysis of the Electronic Band Structure (EBS) and Density of States (DOS). Comparing the structural data with experimental literature [2], the crystalline structure displayed lattice parameters consistent with prior findings. Magnetic ordering in the simulated SrFeO3 (SFO) structure matched the literature, where an AFM magnetic ordering was reported. Upon introducing the Vo perturbation to create SFV material, it was observed that the Vo preserved the AFM ordering. The EBS indicated metallic behavior for the SFO material, while the SFV material exhibited semiconductor characteristics due to the Vo presence. The interaction between these electronic states, characterized by an overlap, revealed a significant intermetallic bond interaction. This interaction could be understood as a molecular path for the GKA model. In both SFO and SFV materials, an intense superexchange effect between Fe atoms occurred, facilitated by the O non-magnetic atom serving as a bridge to link the two magnetic clusters.

The optical parameters were investigated for PANI, PANI/nano-fly ash composite using UV-Vis absorption measurements. The measured results revealed a strong absorption peak at 266 nm and 374 nm, which can be explained due to the charge transfer excitation of the quinoid structure. The PANI/nano-flyash composite revealed clear similarity in their UV–vis spectra particularly with the presence of the absorption maxima at 266and 376 nm, which is associated with the stabilization of the composite.

Ibragimov Complex Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences (CI RAS), Russia astafev@sfedu.ru BiFeO3 refers to multiferroic materials that exhibit both ferroelectric and magnetic orderings.This composition shows promise for use in ferroelectric memory devices.Recently, several research groups have been studying the microwave- absorbing properties of BiFeO3, as well as its potential application in tuning microwave devices.However, a potential practical application is impeded by the presence of a spin-modulated structure, which greatly diminishes the magnetization magnitude of this material.To overcome this drawback and improve microwave absorption, different techniques are employed, one of which involves modifying BiFeO3 with various ions of rare earth elements.When modifying, much attention is paid to the dependence of the properties of this multiferroic material on temperature, as it determines the stability of characteristics within specific temperature ranges.Thus, the purpose of this study was to determine the patterns in the development of macroresponses in doped Ho BiFeO3 within the microwave frequency range, as well as to explore the potential for controlling its parameters through thermal action. The objects of study were solid Bi1-xHoxFeO3with x= 0.00….0.20, ∆x=0.05.The measurement samples are made in the form of a cylinder with a diameter of Ø10 mm and a height of 1 mm.Radiophysical studies in the temperature range Т= (300…503) K and frequencies f= (8.2…12.4) GHz were carried out in a waveguide measuring cell using a P9375 “Keysight” vector network analyzer. It has been found that at room temperature, maxima are formed in the absorption coefficient of BiFeO3 SS at f ~8.7 GHz and ~ 10.3 GHz. As the temperature increases, the peaks of the loss factor for the measuring sample shift towards lower frequencies, and their intensity increases.When cooling, the studied characteristics return linearly to their original values, assuming there is no hysteresis in the dynamics of these processes. In addition, the introduction of holmium causes a gradual shift of the maxima found at T=300 K to the low-frequency region. It should be noted that the temperature has a similar effect on samples containing a modifier as observed in pure BiFeO3.The data obtained must be taken into account when designing such materials, as well as devices based on them.

The characterizations for crystallinity of PANI, Fe2O3 and ZnO powder and its composites have studied using XRD. Poly aniline and its composite of Iron Oxide-ZnO at different weight percent have been synthesized by in situ polymerization using chemical oxidation method. The XRD spectrum for the composite of polyaniline with Iron Oxide-ZnO reveals that the composite is crystalline in nature. The peak positions differs from the Fe2O3 compared to that of PANI/ Fe2O3 composite and this indicates the occurrence of modification in the structure of the composite. The values of dielectric constant and dielectric loss have been increased as weight percent of Fe2O3 –ZnO decreased at lower frequency region. A remarkable increase is observed in AC conductivity after the doping of Fe2O3-ZnO the size of the particle is in nanometer range which can found by the XRD.

Upon raising temperature and frequency, Z′(ɷ) of YbMn1-xFexO3 is suppressed, coalescing into a single linear curve within the 103 -105 Hz frequency range. The dependence of Zʺ(ɷ) follows a relaxation pattern. We also explores the magnetodielectric (MD(ω)) and magnetoresistive (MR(ω)) coefficients of nanostructured YbMn0.3Fe0.7O3 and YbMn0.5Fe0.5O3 in alternating current under crossed and parallel electric and magnetic fields (E and H). Interestingly, the curve shapes are highly influenced by the quantity of magnetic field cycles (-H↔+H). Furthermore, upon repeated cycling, MD(ω) and MR(ω) dependencies exhibit mirror symmetry, indicating a magnetoresistive origin for the magnetodielectric coefficient MD(ω). This study contributes valuable insights into the intricate electrical and magnetic properties of YbMn1-xFexO3 compounds and their responses to various external influences.

Experimental evaluations were used to extensively analyse the structural and optical properties of the generated films as well as the effect of the dopant on the NiO host matrix. The face-centered cubic structure, crystallinity, and crystallite size decrease as Gd concentration increases, assuring the appropriate inclusion of Gd dopant into the lattice, were all visible in the x-ray diffraction patterns.

Abstract: Very recently, atomically thin layers of vander Waals bonded MX2 monolayer have gained tremendous scientific interest. Among vast family of MX2 layers, Zirconium diselenide (ZrSe2), with extreme low thermal conductivity has established itself as potential candidate for thermoelectric devices. The performance and reliability of devices rely critically on the efficiency of heat removal from the device- active region. In the present work, we have investigated wide temperature range (4<T<400 K) lattice thermal conductivity, of single layer ZrSe2using Boltzmann transport formalism. The contributions from in-plane longitudinal (LA) and transverse (TA) acoustic phonons and out-of-plane flexural (ZA) phonons are taken into account explicitly. The scattering of phonons by sample boundaries, impurities and other phonons via umklapp process are considered. Numerical results presented show that, at low temperatures (T<20 K), ZA phonon contribution is dominant, whereas at higher temperatures (T>50 K) LA phonon becomes important. It is found that the lattice contribution to TC in µm2 flakes is less than 1W/mK for rough surfaces. The study opens a new door for thermoelectric applications and brings out relative importance of scattering by the three modes of acoustic phonon modes in ZrSe2 monolayers.

The structural and morphological studies are carried out by the various characterization techniques like PXRD, SEM, FTIR, UV-visible spectroscopy. Using the PXRD data and Scherrer formula, the average crystallite size were determined and found to be 24.75 nm which is in accordance with standard JCPDS no. 43- 1015. The FTIR spectra reveals the absorption peak near 540 cm-1 , associated with the vibration of the Gd–O bond. The absorption bands in the range of 1300–1600 cm-1 are responsible for CO2+ anion groups and 3410 cm-1 due to H2O molecules.These bonds become weaker with increasing annealing temperature and nearly disappear after heating at 12000 C. This result indicates that there are no O-H or C-O groups in the Gd2O3 phosphors annealed at 12000 C. The band gap of the pure and RE3+ doped Gd2O3 were determined using Tauc plot and found to be in the range 5.12- 5.76 eV. SEM micrographs revealed the occurrence of spherical, agglomerated particles with non-uniform distribution. PL emission and excitation spectra for pure and rare earth doped Gd2O3 nanophosphors are discussed.In emission spectra (λexi = 276 nm), peaks in the range 450–500 nm with an intense peak centred at 485nm were due to self-trapped luminescence or intrinsic defects of Gd2O3 lattice. The peaks in the range from 525 to 637 nm were due to 6 GJ → 6 PJ transitions of Gd3+ ions. The peaks found in the emission spectra were sharp, distinct and intense.

Breastmilk monitoring methods that are currently used are frequently labor-intensive, challenging and prone to human error. As a result, there is a demand for an automated system that can correctly detect, track, and classify breastmilk. The traditional methods for breastfeeding monitoring entail manually noting the date, time, and amount of milk produced. After that, the milk is refrigerated and labelled with the mother's name. However, this approach is prone to human mistakes, and monitoring the breastmilk expiry is difficult. In this study, we propose an RFID-based breastmilk monitoring and identification system that makes use of temperature and humidity sensors. An RFID tag is attached to each bottle or carton of breastmilk, and it carries data about the mother, the day and time of expression, and the amount of milk produced. To monitor the temperature and humidity of the refrigerator where breastmilk is being stored, the device additionally has a temperature sensor. This technology has the ability to decrease human error, save time, and ensure that infants receive high-quality care.

E-mailaddress:prabharawat.modi@gmail.com. Abstract In terms of productivity and production operation expenses moving from the reservoir to surface facilities, wax deposition in oil production is a serious and challenging problem to control. Because of the complicated chemical makeup of crude oil, pour point depressants are added at ppm levels to solve the transportation issue. Synthesized PPDs enhance flow characteristics, viscosity, and a number of other parameters to enhance crude oil performance. Four polymeric additives were created in the current study by polymerizing various Esters with Styrene and Natural Oil having conjugation. These additives were then used as Viscosity modifier and pour point depressants (PPD) for Indian crude oil. The results are encouraging and demonstrate that the presence of polar groups in the structure allows prepared additives to serve as both wax dispersants and flow enhancers. Studies using cross- polarizing microscopes were carried out to examine changes in wax crystal shape in crude oil with and without addition along with the Rheological studies of the crude with and without additives. A zero friction advanced Rheometer AR-500 was used to determine the viscosity by applying Bingham plastic-flow model.

Overall results show that the PL intensity monitored at 525 nm with 254 nm excitations displays a good green emission from Zn2SiO4:Mn2 + Eu phosphor system The 4T1(4G)→6A1(6S) transition, is directly responsible for the green emission at 525nm. It is concluded the Eu ions sensitizes the 525nm emission in Zn2SiO4: Mn by 100%. The novel idea is to use the developed new samples holders to record the PL emission within the range. This concludes us the PL emission intensity is very high in both the samples Zn2SiO4:Mn2 + and Zn2SiO4:Mn2 + , Eu. The Zn2SiO4:Mn2+ Eu phosphor can be a good phosphor for PDP, CFL devices. By using Zn2SiO4:Mn2 +, Eu phosphors the total quantity in the device may be reduced by 40- 50% which leads cost reduction of the phosphor component in the optoelectronic device.Zn2SiO4 doped with manganese ion was synthesized by solid state reaction under air atmosphere. Their characterizations were systematically analyzed by SEM, X-ray diffraction (XRD) and photoluminescence spectra (PL). Photoluminescence emission spectra having excitations at around 254, 268nm revealed that Mn ions were present in trivalent oxidation states. The emission peaks are found at 525 nm(green) are observed. Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) was implemented to investigate the surface morphology of present phosphor. The obtained results on Zn2SiO4:Mn is suitable for green light source using UV light as the primary excitation, Plasma display panels (PDP’S) , cathode ray tubes, solid state lasers , lamp applications and luminescent phosphors in a series of compositions which have high efficiency and tailorable persistence.

Manjunatha,a Chia-Liang Cheng,a and Sheng Yun Wua,* a Department of Physics, National Dong Hwa University, Hualien 97401, Taiwan * Corresponding authors:sywu@mail.ndhu.edu.tw (SYW) ABSTRACT:In the present work, Mg-doped CoCr2O4 nanoparticles having spinel cubic structure shows different phenomena such as the exchange bias effect, magnetic memory effect and magnetocaloric effect. The refined XRD patterns of all samples reveal normal spinel cubic structure with space group Fd3m. Raman spectra of all samples show five Raman modes, which confirms the formation of spinel structure. The Curie temperature (TC) and spiral transition temperature (TS) decreased with the increase of Mg concentration. For x = 0 and 15 mol % Mg doped CoCr2O4 samples, an exchange bias effect is noticed where the exchange bias field sharply decreases with increasing field cooling (Hcool) from 500 to 25000 Oe. The results show that the exchange bias is caused by intrinsic magnetic inhomogeneity: the action of spiral spin order and collinear ferrimagnetic order below TS. Themagnetic memory effects verifiedbelow spin-glass structure using temperature and time-dependent magnetization measurements. The magnetocaloric effect has been investigated using magnetic fields ranging from 10 to 60 kOeacross the TC. The obtained relativecooling power (RCP) and change in magnetic entropy (-ΔSM) values are significant enough to consider Mg doped CoCr2O4nanoparticles as a magnetic refrigerant above liquid nitrogen temperature. The exchange-coupling constants confirms the existence of spin-glass and magnetic geometrical frustration behavior for both pure and Mg-doped samples, making these materials excellent candidates for technological applications involving magnet-memory and magnetocaloric effect fields.

We have synthesized Sn doped CdWO4 nanorods by hydrothermal method and characterized them using refined x-ray diffraction, FE-SEM, TEM, Raman and photoluminescence analysis. XRD patterns confirms the single-phase monoclinic phase. The crystallite size obtained from XRD were decreases from 62 to 38 nm with an increasing of Sn concentration from 0 to 5%. TEM and FE-SEM images of CdWO4 and Sn-doped CdWO4 clearly show the rod-like morphology. A Raman shift was found with increasing Sn2+ concentration, suggesting lattice distortion in the Sn2+ doped CdWO4 nanorods. Sn doping CdWO4 nanorods promotes surface recombination of electrons and holes, causing the PL intensity to decrease as Sn concentration increases. The chromaticity plot reveals that increasing the Sn concentration induced a shift in the emission colour from sky blue to light green, which was ascribed to increased defect density. This study gives insight into the behaviour of Sn-doped CdWO4 RDs during electron transitions, as well as the physical nature of emission, which might be employed in displays, light sources, and bio-imaging applications.

This work shows significant influence of magnetic and optical characteristics of hydrothermally produced single crystalline CdWO4 nanorods with adjustable replacement of Cu2+ ions at the Cd2+ site.With increasing Cu concentration (0 to 10%), the mean diameter (62 to 40 nm) and length (341 to 184 nm) decreased dramatically, resulting in an astounding 16% reduction in the aspect ratio. XRD results confirms the single-phase monoclinic structure. The development of a gradual shift from diamagnetic to increased magnetization in terms of Cu content was attributed to replacing [CdO6] with the small ferromagnetic [CuO6] cluster in the crystal lattice.Cu-doping produced intermediated energy level was given a redshift of 0.8 eV in bandgap energy and a relative 46% reduction in internal quantum efficiency, permitting direct transition between the valence band and conduction band proven by XEOL studies.Our findings indicate that Cu dopant-induced nucleation in CdWO4 influences energy transfer and structural modifications rather than direct radiative decay from Cu sites.

Ibragimov Complex Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences (CI RAS), Russia astafev@sfedu.ru BiFeO3 refers to multiferroic materials that exhibit both ferroelectric and magnetic orderings.This composition shows promise for use in ferroelectric memory devices.Recently, several research groups have been studying the microwave- absorbing properties of BiFeO3, as well as its potential application in tuning microwave devices.However, a potential practical application is impeded by the presence of a spin-modulated structure, which greatly diminishes the magnetization magnitude of this material.To overcome this drawback and improve microwave absorption, different techniques are employed, one of which involves modifying BiFeO3 with various ions of rare earth elements.When modifying, much attention is paid to the dependence of the properties of this multiferroic material on temperature, as it determines the stability of characteristics within specific temperature ranges.Thus, the purpose of this study was to determine the patterns in the development of macroresponses in doped Ho BiFeO3 within the microwave frequency range, as well as to explore the potential for controlling its parameters through thermal action. The objects of study were solid Bi1-xHoxFeO3with x= 0.00….0.20, ∆x=0.05.The measurement samples are made in the form of a cylinder with a diameter of Ø10 mm and a height of 1 mm.Radiophysical studies in the temperature range Т= (300…503) K and frequencies f= (8.2…12.4) GHz were carried out in a waveguide measuring cell using a P9375 “Keysight” vector network analyzer. It has been found that at room temperature, maxima are formed in the absorption coefficient of BiFeO3 SS at f ~8.7 GHz and ~ 10.3 GHz. As the temperature increases, the peaks of the loss factor for the measuring sample shift towards lower frequencies, and their intensity increases.When cooling, the studied characteristics return linearly to their original values, assuming there is no hysteresis in the dynamics of these processes. In addition, the introduction of holmium causes a gradual shift of the maxima found at T=300 K to the low-frequency region. It should be noted that the temperature has a similar effect on samples containing a modifier as observed in pure BiFeO3. The data obtained must be taken into account when designing such materials, as well as devices based on them.

Fernandes Department Physics & Electronics, Christ University, Bangalore Abstract The development of effective transition metal catalysts that can replace noble metal catalysts for hydrogen production through hydrolysis of chemical hydrides has attracted great interest. In the present work, cobalt boride (Co-B) was synthesized in the form of a metal-organic framework (MOF) by hydrothermal and chemical reduction methods. The prepared catalyst was tested for hydrogen production and was able to deliver an HGR of 1.9 L/min/g, which is twice the HGR of a CoB powder catalyst. SEM images of CoB-MOF revealed the hierarchical morphology of two dimensional nanosheets.XRD pattern of the prepared catalyst suggests the crystalline nature of it. Crystalline Co-MOF was completely transformed into amorphous CoB- MOF after introduction of boron. This amorphous form of CoB-MOF showed an increased H2 generation rate for the hydrolysis of NaBH4, while Co-MOF was inactive for the same reaction. The increased activity recorded by CoB-MOF was mainly attributed to the morphology and the presence of boron along with cobalt. The low activation energy of 53 KJ/mol was determined for CoB-MOF from the Arrhenius diagram, which is lower than most of the reportedvalues.CoB-MOF also exhibited excellent stability even after annealing at high temperature.

Email Address: divyamani.mp@gmail.com Abstract: The hormone cortisol controls human blood pressure, glucose levels, and carbohydrate metabolism. A cortisol imbalance can result in a number of symptoms that are directly related to both psychological and physical health. In this research, we study the development of an electrochemical sensor modified with a ZnO seed solution on an SPCE. The ZnO seed solution is used as a sensing material and was electrochemically synthesized using the drop-casting technique. The surface morphology of the ZnO was characterized using field emission scanning electron microscopy (Fe-SEM) and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS). Further, ZnO was coated on an SPCE to investigate the electrochemical sensing characteristics of the ZnO structure. It was measured using a Kiethley instrument, showing the performance of the sensor that was investigated in the current (ampere) with respect to the voltage ranges of 0.1 V to 15 V. The I-V curve then showed the ohmic nature of the sample. The results show that ZnO seed solution can be successfully used to detect cortisol with good sensitivity in saliva sample analysis.

Presenting authors email: 1*pratap.kumar@res.christuniversity.in 2anil.raj@christuniversity.in Abstract In this investigation, the base metals selected were AA6101 and C11000 alloys of the Aluminium and Copper series. The base metals were joined by friction stir welding using a circular OHNS steel tool. During the welding, the temperature distributions at the welded Al-Cu joint area were determined for each trial. The results show that the microhardness value obtained at the joint area was higher than the base metals AA6101 and C11000. The maximum temperature obtained at the AA6101-C11000 joints for the trial will have the highest ultimate tensile strength (UTS) value. In this work, the highest joint efficiency was found to be 55.28% concerning the AA6101 base metals at high tool rotational speed, feed rate, and 0 mm tool offset.

The cause of solvent on aggregation has been analysed on the basis of hydrophilic and hydrophobic interaction. In addition to this the J-type aggregation can be seen in H2O. By using kinetic models of excited as well as ground state of 1st order, aggregation rate constant has been determined to be 1.2*10-4s-1 (kagg=413nm) & 8* 10-4 s-1 (kagg=312nm).The consequence on the molecular geometry which resulted from the interaction of BISCH and the solvent molecule is discussed based on DFT calculations. Natural bond orbital, Density of state, Non covalent interaction and Molecular electro static potential are done for BISCH in H2O with several topological analysis.The natural bond orbital interaction is seen because of the presence of delocalization of lone pair in N36 and O35 to antibonding of H37-O38 and H40-O41 Localized orbital locator, Atoms in molecules, Average localized ionization energy and Electron localisation function calculation have been used to locate magnitude and site of H-bonding interacion.Ab intro molecular dynamics in H2O the minimum of total energy between 125 and 175 fs and 225–275 fs. The N----H-O bonding interaction like N36-H40 and N35-H37 varies from 1.8 -2.6 Å during AIMD.

Polyaniline is doped with MgO nanoparticles at varying weight percentages. XRD used to characterize the polyaniline and nano-composites. The crystallite sizes are calculated using the Debye-Scherer relation from the XRD spectra of nano-composites with varying weight percentages. The crystallite sizes of nano particles reduced as the weight percentage of MgO increased in polymer matrix. The dislocation density caused due to defects in the crystals of nano-composites is determined. The dislocation density increased as the wt% of MgO in polyaniline increased. Furthermore, the strain produced at the grain boundary is determined using the FWHM of the XRD spectra. The strain of nano- composites at the grain boundary increased as weight percent of MgO increased in the nano-composites of polyaniline.

All industries are under constant pressure to meet current demands for the same monolithic materials by properly alloying and varying microstructures in order to achieve greater performance. Their limitations, like complicated manufacturing requirements and the increased cost of the finished product, have been the biggest obstacles to their widespread use. Better manufacturing techniques for reinforcements are therefore required to increase their usefulness in practical applications. Due to their low density, high strength-to-weight ratio, high toughness, resistance to corrosion, increased stiffness, better wear resistance, improved creep resistance, low coefficient of thermal expansion, and enhanced high-temperature qualities, aluminium and its alloys are in great demand. In order to get the tailored properties, Al alloys are reinforced with organic and inorganic reinforcements. The incorporation of hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) as a reinforcement material in aluminum alloyshas garnered significant attention in recent years. This paper provides an overview of the reinforcement of hBN in aluminum alloys through castingmethod and highlights the mechanical and thermal properties of these alloys. The resultant hBN-reinforced aluminum composites exhibit improved tensile strength, hardness, wear resistance, and thermal conductivity. Furthermore, the impact of hBN content, dispersion, and processing parameters on the properties of the composites is analyzed. The unique structural and thermal properties of hBN, such as its high thermal conductivity and excellent lubricating abilities, make it a promising candidate for reinforcing aluminum composites.

Anjaneyulu1* 1Department of Physics, School of Applied Sciences, REVA University, Bangalore, Karnataka, India. *Email: p.njaneyulu@reva.edu.in Abstract: The nanographene solution was prepared and coated by spin coating technique on fluorine doped tin oxide (FTO) substrate to fabricate thin films. Current-Voltage (I-V) characteristics were performed on the above thin films in metal/insulator/metal (MIM) structure, i.e., FTO/nanographene/silver (Ag). Then heterostructure are fabricated by coating TiO2 nanoparticles on top of the nanographene, and vice versa. Then I-V measurements was carried out on these devices too with FTO as bottom electrode and Ag as top electrode. I-V data shows ohmic behavior for nanographene, and for heterostructures non-ohmic behavior is observed. The I-V hysteresis measurements shows resistive window in positive bias region for heterostructure and shows no resistive switching in the negative bias region. Stable SET and RESET values were observed in heterostructures, the dominant conducting mechanism were ohmic behavior and space charge limited conduction mechanism at high and low resistance state. The resistive switching phenomenon was explained by formation and rupture of the filament in which oxygen ions migration takes place.

Dagestan State University, Gadgieva 43-a, Makhachkala, 367000, Russia *Corresponding author. chl@sfedu.ru Abstract This paper summarizes findings related to the impedance, magnetodielectric and magnetoresistive properties of YbMn1-xFexO3 composition at varying temperatures, frequencies, and mechanical activations.The complex impedance, characterized by Z′(ɷ) and Zʺ(ɷ), exhibits distinct trends: Z′(ɷ) decreases monotonically with frequency, converging into a linear trend at higher frequencies.The temperature dependence of the fitting parameter Rg displays an intriguing exponential non-Debye behavior, diminishing with increasing temperature. Upon raising temperature and frequency, Z′(ɷ) of YbMn1-xFexO3 is suppressed, coalescing into a single linear curve within the 103 -105 Hz frequency range. The dependence of Zʺ(ɷ) follows a relaxation pattern. We also explores the magnetodielectric (MD(ω)) and magnetoresistive (MR(ω)) coefficients of nanostructured YbMn0.3Fe0.7O3 and YbMn0.5Fe0.5O3 in alternating current under crossed and parallel electric and magnetic fields (E and H). Interestingly, the curve shapes are highly influenced by the quantity of magnetic field cycles (-H↔+H). Furthermore, upon repeated cycling, MD(ω) and MR(ω) dependencies exhibit mirror symmetry, indicating a magnetoresistive origin for the magnetodielectric coefficient MD(ω). This study contributes valuable insights into the intricate electrical and magnetic properties of YbMn1-xFexO3 compounds and their responses to various external influences.

Department of Physics, Indian Institute of Technology-Madras, Chennai- 600036, India. Abstract: Half-metallic compensated ferrimagnets with high Curie temperature are potential candidates for spintronic applications due to their zero moment and high spin polarization [1]. Our earlier investigation on the structural and magnetic properties of Mn2V1-xCoxZ (Z=Ga, Al; x=0, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1) alloys have shown a high TC compensated ferrimagnetism for x=0.5. But the half-metallic characteristic was not probed. Here we are presenting an indirect investigation of the half-metallicity of Mn2V1-xCoxZ using magnetization and electrical resistivity studies. The magnetic moment values are in close agreement with the values predicted by S-P rule. variation of spontaneous magnetization showed a local moment behavior at low temperatures and an itinerant behavior at higher temperatures for all the samples except x=0.5. The major contribution to the resistivity at low temperatures arises from two-magnon scattering and the one- magnon spin-flip scattering was less in magnitude. Indirect evidence for half- metallicity can be observed except for the x=0.5 sample.

The produced Mg1-xRbxFe2O4 powder have been examined using energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), field effect scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR). According to the results of powder XRD, unit cell volume(590-502Ao ) and crystallite size(40-26 nm) decrease when Rb ion concentration increases. The nanomaterial has a single phase with the Fd3m space group, according to the PXRD. The presence of Mg, Rb, Fe, and O elements is confirmed by EDX. The samples are highly porous nature (8 to 24%) and high surface volume(0.71-0.76). The spinal ferrite structure is clearly visible in the FTIR spectra, and the bands in the high-frequency region illustrate how hygroscopic the produced materials are.
