The mono filament wire was prepared using Mg+2B powder mixture by powder-in-tube method without any intermediate heat treatment. The powder mixture of the amorphous nano boron (PVZ Nano Boron, purity of 98.5%, particle sizes < 250 nm) and high purity Mg powder (PVZ Mg, purity of 99%, particle size 74µm) were used. The multifilament wire was produced using groove rolling and cold drawing machines. The geometrical form of the filaments was examined using wire pieces taken from the wire at different steps throughout the production process. Finally, the multifilament wires produced in two different diameters of 1.02 mm and 0.82 mm were investigated in terms of filament uniformity, crack formation, surface roughness, and electrical transport properties. The structural examination was done on Nb filaments after the Fe and Cu sheaths were etched using HCl and HNO3 solution. The I – V measurements of the multifilament wires heat treated at 650 °C for 15, 30, 45, 60, and 240 minutes, and 700 °C for 60 minutes were carried out for the applied current up to 1 A at 25 K under various external magnetic field.\u0000","PeriodicalId":507374,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Advanced Applied Sciences","volume":"58 41","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-05-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141009388","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 designed structure consists of placing ZnS–Si APD and PIN photodiodes at the ends of conventional crystals such as NaI(Tl) and CsI(Tl). Since ZnS is transparent to photons with wavelengths between 340 and 10000 nm, photons coming from the crystals are absorbed directly in the depletion region and generate primary particles. With an increase in the number of generated primary particles, a stronger and cleaner signal is obtained. In the simulation work, the light generated by 30 keV–3 MeV gamma rays in the crystals was obtained using the Geant4 simulation code. The single-particle Monte Carlo technique was used to calculate the photodiode output signal for the crystal emission spectrum. The simulation results showed that the crystals and ZnS–Si photodiode structures formed a good combination. The high quantum efficiency and low excess noise factor make the ZnS–Si structure an excellent choice for scintillating light detection.","PeriodicalId":507374,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Advanced Applied Sciences","volume":"43 ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139176218","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 surface microstructures of these films were investigated by Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) technique, and their optical properties and bond structures were investigated by Photoluminescence (PL) spectra and Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) measurements, respectively. Especially XRD and Raman results revealed that heat treatments with high temperature values transformed the films into VO2 and V2O5 mixed-phase crystal structures. Due to the heat treatment carried out in the atmosphere and the high oxygen affinity of the vanadium metal, crystallization took place in both VO2 and V2O5 forms.

This demand is a significant driver for innovation and development in the energy sector. Clean and sustainable energy research focuses on two areas: renewable resources and high-performance energy storage systems. Today’s energy systems provide large amounts of electricity generation, but the desired results cannot be achieved in the energy storage process. There is an urgent need for high-capacity and efficient energy storage devices. Supercapacitors are one of the most promising technologies for energy storage. They have competitive features such as high power density, excellent cycle stability, and short charge/discharge time. This study demonstrates the potential usage of NiSe2 in supercapacitor applications as cathode material. In an experimentally novel approach, NiSe2 on nickel foam was synthesized by a fast, simple, and inexpensive microwave-assisted method in the presence of selenium salt. In this route, nickel foam was employed as both nickel source and substrate. Furthermore, the electrochemical properties of the prepared NiSe2 cathodes were investigated in three electrodes system. As a result, NiSe2 obtained in 45 minutes delivers a high capacitance of 3.3 F/cm2 at a high current density of 5 mA/cm2.","PeriodicalId":507374,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Advanced Applied Sciences","volume":"67 10","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139175737","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}
