In this study, nanosized of Pr0.67Sr0.33MnO3 prepared via sol-gel method followed by heat treatment at 600–1000 °C in intervals 100 were synthesized. The structure, surface morphology, electrical, magneto-transport and magnetic properties the samples investigated. Rietveld refinements X-ray diffraction patterns confirm that single phase orthorhombic crystal structure with space group Pnma (62) is formed 600 °C. A strong dependence electrical on grain size have been observed manganites...
La0.7Sr0.3MnO3 (LSMO) and Nd0.7Sr0.3MnO3 (NSMO) possess excellent colossal magnetoresistance (CMR). However, research work on the neodymium-based system is limited to date. A comparative study between LSMO NSMO prepared by sol–gel solid-state reaction methods was undertaken assess their structural, microstructural, magnetic, electrical, magneto-transport properties. X-ray diffraction structure refinement showed formation of a single-phase composition. Sol–gel-synthesised revealed be sample...
Water pollution has emerged as a critical global challenge, particularly the contamination of water bodies with persistent organic pollutants such Bisphenol S (BPS), known endocrine disruptor. This study presents synthesis and application eco-friendly bio-based coconut shell magnetic biochar (CSMB) for efficient sequestration BPS from aqueous environments. Utilizing pyrolysis co-precipitation techniques, was characterized through various methods including surface chemistry (pHpzc), electron...
In contrast to most transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs), which are usually semiconducting, the 1T phase of vanadium disulfide (VS2) exhibits conductive characteristics, provide efficient electrical conductivity for rapid electron transit. Its outstanding physical and chemical properties make it a promising nanodevice candidate. This work addresses limited research on mechanical characteristics 1T-VS2 (space group P-3m1) facilitates analysis many aspects from an atomic perspective. this...
Sintering significantly influences the phase composition and crystal structure of high-temperature superconductors, such as yttrium barium copper oxide (YBa2Cu3O7-δ, YBCO) bulk ceramics, thereby impacting their superconductivity. This study investigates effects various sintering temperatures (920 °C, 950 980 °C) on formation, AC susceptibility, superconducting transition temperature (Tc) in pure YBCO ceramics synthesized via traditional solid-state reaction method (SSR). Characterization...
