Since 2011, 2D transition metal carbides, carbonitrides and nitrides known as MXenes have gained huge attention due to their attractive chemical electronic properties. The diverse functionalities of make them a promising candidate for multitude applications. Recently, doping MXene with metallic non-metallic elements has emerged an exciting new approach endow properties this systems, opening paradigm theoretical experimental studies. In review, we present comprehensive overview on the recent...
Abstract Poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene):poly(styrene sulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS) is most commonly used as an anode buffer layer in bulk-heterojunction (BHJ) polymer solar cells (PSCs). However, its hygroscopic and acidic nature contributes to the insufficient electrical conductivity, air stability restricted photovoltaic (PV) performance for fabricated PSCs. In this study, a new multifunctional additive, 2,3-dihydroxypyridine (DOH), has been PEDOT: PSS obtain modified properties PSS@DOH achieve...
Abstract Ailment related to pathogenic bacteria and toxins remains a significant threat the human body. Specifically, are main source of epidemic diseases infectious beings owing their appearance in food, water, other biological samples. Over past several years, advanced nanomaterials-based sensing has been considered as an efficient unique platform for rapid, selective, ultrasensitive, qualitative, quantitative detection single or multiple bacteria. Towards this end, various emerging...
Abstract Nanoporous carbon materials have been widely utilized for myriad applications owing to their intriguing physicochemical properties. Development of green and clean synthetic techniques/procedures generate nanoporous especially derived from inexpensive waste precursors/resources has rejuvenated the chemistry abundant nature low cost these sources ability unique surface/porous structures. These heavily explored in multiple sectors such as soil/water remediation, adsorption separation,...
In this research work, a non-enzymatic amperometric sensor for the determination of glucose was designed based on carbon nanodots (C-dots) and copper oxide (CuO) nanocomposites (CuO-C-dots). The CuO-C-dots were modified surface screen-printed electrode (SPCE) to increase sensitivity selectivity sensor. as-synthesized materials further analyzed physico-chemical properties through characterization tools such as transmission electron microscopy (TEM) Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy...
Global plastic waste is increasing rapidly. In general, densely populated regions generate tons of daily, which sometimes disposed on land or diverged to sea. Most the plastics created in form have complex degradation behavior and are non-biodegradable by nature. These remain intact environment for a long time span potentially originate complications within terrestrial marine life ecosystems. The strategic management recycling can preserve environmental species associated costs. key...
Conducting polymers (CPs) have been proved to be instrumental in enhancing photocatalytic efficacy owing their unique physicochemical properties and energy levels. In this regard, titanium dioxide (TiO2) has investigated transdisciplinary research areas (like catalysis, technologies, health, environment) due its desirable characteristics. the process of developing advanced photocatalysts, novel inorganic–organic heterojunction design based materials explored developed contrast conventional,...
In this paper, we provide a comprehensive survey of recent energy-efficient medium access control (MAC) protocols for wireless body area networks (WBANs) and presents comparison the various approaches pursued. At outset, outline crucial attributes good MAC. Several sources that contribute to energy inefficiency are identified. Then, investigate few MAC devised WBAN by emphasizing their salient features. As conclusion, put forward number open research challenges with regard prospects...

We are directly exposed to microplastic contamination via indoor air that we breathe daily, for which the characterisation of microplastics is still a challenge. Herein, two typical filter samples were collected, one from an air-conditioner and another personal computer, both have been working around half year collect accumulate in air, like banks. After sample preparation remove mineral dusts, Raman imaging was employed simultaneously identify visualise polyethylene terephthalate (PET)...
We demonstrate the first-ever surface modification of green CdSe/ZnS quantum dots (QDs) using bromide anions (Br-) in cetyl trimethylammonium (CTAB). The Br- ions reduced interparticle spacing between QDs and induced an effective charge balance QD light-emitting devices (QLEDs). fabricated QLEDs exhibited efficient injection because emission quenching effect their enhanced thin film morphology. As a result, they maximum luminance 71,000 cd/m2 external current efficiency 6.4 cd/A, both...
