TL;DR: In this article, the properties, applications, and syntheses of three magnetic iron oxides (hematite, magnetite, and maghemite) are discussed and methods of preparation that allow control over the size, morphology, surface treatment and magnetic properties of their nanoparticles.

TL;DR: In this article, a review of chemical and thermal methods for producing zinc silicate, Zn2SiO4 phosphor on industrial and laboratory scales is presented, with a focus on phase formation and compared with the conventional solid state reaction.

TL;DR: In this paper, progress in the growth of one-dimensional nanomaterials such as carbon nanotubes and inorganic nanowires is reviewed and future directions are provided.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present an overview on silver-based fast ion conducting phosphate glasses with chlorides of some metals viz; Li, Na, Mg, Pb and Cu.

TL;DR: Transmission electron microscope (TEM) based techniques offer superior spatial resolution and highly sensitive elemental analysis capabilities that can be exploited for metrology and materials characterization of sub-nanometer sized device features in advanced semiconductor technologies as mentioned in this paper.
