This involves calculating physical properties of these atoms such as effective potential, electron density and radial wave functions in both the ground state and the first three excited states. Thus, taking into account the structural complexity of the system, the calculations were carried out implicitly by the finite element method via the MATLAB software in deterministic mode. At the end of the study, the results obtained are consistent and revealing. They have shown that the effective potential of the helium atom decreases with position both in its ground state and in its first three excited states, so for the carbon atom, they have shown that these two states evolve in the same way. Regarding the electron density, the results revealed that at each radius of an atomic orbital, the electron density passes through a maximum for the helium atom while for carbon, the results show a succession of two and three peaks. Finally, with regard to radial wave functions, the results showed that the 1s orbital is closer to the nucleus than the 2s, 2p and 3s orbitals for the helium atom. For the carbon atom, the results confirm the information provided by the electron density. From the results it can be concluded that the effective potential of a multielectronic atom decreases with position and that the densest orbitals are those near the nucleus.","PeriodicalId":262812,"journal":{"name":"American Journal of Nanomaterials","volume":"50 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-04-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133513881","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The HNTs were also characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Si and Al magic angle spinning nuclear magnetic resonance with magic angle spinning (MAS-NMR) and nitrogen adsorption at 77 K. SEM and TEM micrographs showed that HNTs have lengths of 0.2 to 1.5 μm, an outer diameter of 100 nm and lumen of 20 nm wide. X-ray diffraction patterns showed that the HNTs were totally dehydrated. HNTs may be regarded as a mesoporous material with a pore size distribution in the range of 1.5-150 Å and specific surface area of 34.49 m⋅g. The adsorption kinetics and equilibrium data of the dye, initial dye concentration, temperature, pH and contact time effect on removal efficiency were also investigated. Pseudo-first-order, pseudo-second-order, intraparticle diffusion and Elrich models were evaluated in order to determine the rate parameters. The adsorption rate followed pseudo-second-order kinetic model.

The TiO2 NPs were subjected to crystal phase, vibrational, size, and morphological characterizations. The photocatalytic degradation of MB revealed that anatase TiO2 NPs have a superior catalytic activity in the front of rutile phase. This finding further suggested that low charge resistance and low electron-hole recombination probability lead to the acceleration of the OH• formation on the surface of anatase TiO2 NPs.","PeriodicalId":262812,"journal":{"name":"American Journal of Nanomaterials","volume":"84 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121142236","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
