Studies on antibacterial activity of ZnO nanoparticles by ROS induced lipid peroxidation

TL;DR: It is confirmed that the antibacterial effect of bare as well as TG capped ZnO NPs were due to membrane lipid peroxidation caused by the ROS generated during Zn O NPs interaction in culture medium.

NiFe Hydroxide Lattice Tensile Strain: Enhancement of Adsorption of Oxygenated Intermediates for Efficient Water Oxidation Catalysis

TL;DR: A facile ball-milling method was developed to enhance binding strength of NiFe hydroxide to oxygenated intermediates via generating tensile strain, which reduced the anti-bonding filling states in the d orbital and thus facilitated oxygenated intermediaryates adsorption.
Journal ArticleDOI

Intrinsic Instability of Inorganic-Organic Hybrid Halide Perovskite Materials.

TL;DR: It is suggested that FA should be used for lead halide perovskites for chemical stability instead of MA, and additives that stabilize the crystal phase with α-FAPbI3 should eschew MA.

Visible Luminescence and Surface Properties of Nanosized ZnO Colloids Prepared by Hydrolyzing Zinc Acetate

TL;DR: In this paper, the surface properties of nanosized zinc oxide (ZnO) colloids were studied using thermal gravimetric and infrared techniques, and the luminescence properties were evaluated by the energy difference, ΔE, between the band gap and the emission energy which were obtained from the onset of the absorption spectrum and the peak wavelength of the emission spectrum, respectively.

An X-ray diffraction study of the effects of heat treatment on bone mineral microstructure.

TL;DR: The small, rod-like mineral crystallites changed from a highly anisotropically strained state to one with significantly larger equidimensional crystals possessing little microstrain when heated to > 800 degrees C, discussing in the context of graft bone substitutes and surgical heating of bone.

Microemulsion mediated synthesis of zinc-oxide nanoparticles for varistor studies

TL;DR: In this paper, a microemulsion-mediated synthesis of zinc oxide nanoparticles for varistor studies and possible applications is described, and the microstructure, high density and electrical conductivity of sintered disks of pure and doped ZnO nanoparticles resulting from clean interfaces of particles and scaled down size of grains are found to result in higher critical electric field and a higher coefficient of nonlinearity in the logE versus logJ curve.

General compliance transformation relation and applications for anisotropic hexagonal metals

TL;DR: In this paper, a general compliance transformation relation is given for hexagonal crystals and useful expressions of the Young's modulus, Poisson's ratio υ ( h k l ) and X-ray elastic constants (XREC) are also given in terms of the Miller indices of the lattice plane in the crystal axes ( X, Y, Z ) used commonly.

Strain-driven (002) preferred orientation of ZnO nanoparticles in ion-implanted silica

TL;DR: In this article, the structural properties of ZnO nanoparticles embedded in silica were studied by using glancing incidence X-ray diffraction, and it was shown that the formation of the zinc crystalline nanoclusters with an average diameter of 13nm can be explained by the minimization of the strain energy of the nanoparticles placed in proximity of the surface of the matrix.
