This reduces the resonant frequency, improves stress distribution and generates more output voltage and power. Both analytical and finite element method (FEM) analyses have been performed to investigate the effect of tapered substrate thickness on the PZ cantilever beam. The tapered substrate thickness has been used in rectangular and trapezoidal cantilever structures. All the designed cantilever structures have the same fabrication area, and their performance has been evaluated and compared using an excitation acceleration of 1g (9.8 m/s2). The tapered-down trapezoidal cantilever can achieve the minimum resonant frequency of 62.41 Hz, which is 48.83 % less than the resonant frequency of the uniform rectangular cantilever beam. The output peak voltage and average power of the proposed tapered-down trapezoidal cantilever beam are 12.36 V and 21 µW, respectively, which are improved by 44 % and 74.48 %, respectively to the uniform rectangular cantilever structure.","PeriodicalId":44365,"journal":{"name":"Nanomaterials and Energy","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2022-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45796063","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}

In this research it was found that doping of transition and rare-earth metals is suitable for tuning the optical bandgap and dielectric parameters of SnO2 Nanoparticles to meet the requirement for high conductive semiconductors Via one-step hydrothermal synthesis Doping of Sm causes SnO2NP to have a narrower bandgap (2.54 eV) than pure SnO2NPs (3.36 eV), and increased conductivity at higher frequencies and temperature, which is crucial for the potential applications like light-emitting diodes, biological labels, optoelectronic devices, and other technologies. The particle size of the doped and co-doped sample was found to be smaller than pure SnO2 which effectively pronounced the quantum confinement effect in these metal oxides. Co-doping of Sm-Cu ions in the SnO2 lattice was done for the first time to increase the dielectric strength, with absorption shift towards visible blue region suggest the use of this particular sample for photocatalytic application.","PeriodicalId":44365,"journal":{"name":"Nanomaterials and Energy","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2022-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41822206","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}

Carbonaceous materials derived from WPB were prepared using an ionothermal carbonization (ITC) method in choline chloride urea-deep eutectic solvent system. The ITC-derived materials were subsequently annealed in air to obtain carbonaceous materials. The ITC-derived carbon displayed ultra-high nitrogen doping but lesser carbonization and graphitic ordering compared to the reference carbon material obtained using hydrothermal carbonization (HTC). Therefore, higher temperature annealing/pyrolysis was recommended for the ITC-derived carbon. The HTC-derived carbon was investigated as anode material in LIB with promising electrochemical performance. The LIB displayed stable reversible capacity of about 130 mAh/g at a current density of 0.1 A/g after 20 cycles and an increasing Coulombic efficiency that reached 98% after the 50th cycle. This work shows that a facile and sustainable synthesis method could be used to produce PET-derived activated carbons with potential applications in energy storage systems such as LIBs.","PeriodicalId":44365,"journal":{"name":"Nanomaterials and Energy","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2022-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46247233","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}

In the electronic properties, total density of states (TDOS) and band gap are investigated which confirms the magnetic attributes induced after doping of p-type (B, Al, Ga) materials in the system. Further, the optical properties are extracted for the studied system in terms of dielectric function (real (ε1), imaginary (ε2)), absorption index (α) and refractive index (n) systematically. The real part of ε1 is showing negative values which means to opaque for light through that region. The imaginary part of ε2 shows that B-doped WSSe ML is a probable aspirant with higher light absorbing capacity along with the absorption index shows the peaks align in the ultraviolet (UV) range for both pristine and p-type doped system dominating in the absorption spectrum. The refractive index (n) is investigated, and the peaks located in the UV region. Again, the B-doped system has the maximum value and is in trend with the reported results.

Governments all over the world have set a national policy target for the transition to a zero or low carbon dioxide economy. As a result, scientists and engineers in industry and academia are working to develop cleaner, alternative and sustainable energy production technologies. One technology that has potential in this green technology transition is thermoelectric generators (TEGs), traditionally used off-grid and isolated from things such as stand-alone solar–thermal cells for military and aerospace applications such as missile-testing systems and space telescope cameras. However, future applications based on home entertainment, security systems and smart metering applications are imminent. Key limitations to this are low efficiency, high costs and self-heating with low thermal conductivity. Hence, this study aims to examine the current state of the art of TEGs and identify future research directions to achieve support for the green technology transition. The key findings of this study show that present successes will fulfill the future advancement of thermoelectric technology by supporting a low carbon dioxide economy.","PeriodicalId":44365,"journal":{"name":"Nanomaterials and Energy","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2022-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44991535","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 composite nanorods were characterized by X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, solid diffuse reflectance spectrum, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and photoluminescence spectra. The composite nanorods consist of monoclinic BaSn(OH)6, orthorhombic SnO2, monoclinic Ba(OH)2, cubic Nd2O3 and hexagonal Nd phases.

Comparing with the BSCNRs, the band gap of the NdBSCNRs decreases to 3.34 eV increasing the light absorption ability. The NdBSCNRs exhibit enhanced photocatalytic performance towards gentian violet (GV) under ultraviolet (UV) light illumination owing to Nd modification. The photocatalytic activity of the NdBSCNRs is closely relative to the dosage of the composite nanorods and Nd content. The reaction rate constant k value of the NdBSCNRs for GV degradation increases obviously with the highest k value (0.037 min−1) which is 7.4 times of that (0.005 min−1) of the BSCNRs.
