TL;DR: The properties of amorphous 250 nm and 1 μm silicon films deposited by radiofrequency (RF) magnetron sputtering on copper foil are investigated using X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and electrochemical methods as mentioned in this paper.

TL;DR: In this paper, the chalcopyrite compounds CuInS2 and CuInSe2 were synthesized by thermal decomposition of molecular single-source precursors.

TL;DR: In this article, an active:elastic/plastic inactive anode system was proposed to better understand the mechanism of capacity retention and the ultimate failure mode of a model brittle active-elastic and/or plastic inactive system, and the films were subjected to in situ adhesion tests.

TL;DR: A review of the key issues surrounding synthesis, characterization, and processing of carbon nanotubes in relation to device fabrication is highlighted in this article, where results on a variety of prototype devices which are being developed by the NanoPower Research Laboratories (NPRL) at RIT in collaboration with researchers at the NASA Glenn Research Center are presented.

TL;DR: A review of recent research in 1D zinc oxide nanostructures with emphasis on ZnO-based nanowires (NWs or NRs) used as photocatalysts for the degradation of environmental pollutants, particularly textile and industrial dyes, under appropriate light irradiation is presented in this paper.
