By using the casting procedure, (PS-ZrC-SiO₂) nanocomposite films are created. Compared to pure (PS), optical microscope pictures show that the (ZrC-SiO₂) nanoparticles form an ongoing network inside the polymer. Peak location, peak form, and peak intensity are all changing, according to FTIR. Optical experiments showed that when (ZrC-SiO₂) nanoparticle ratios were raised to (5 wt%), the absorbance of (PS-ZrC-SiO₂) nanocomposites rose from 45 to 97%. In the meantime, for the allowed and prohibited indirect transitions, respectively, the energy gap of (PS-ZrC-SiO₂) PNCs reduced from (4.01 to 2.11) eV and from (3.29 to 1.95) eV. These results may have implications for the use of (PS-ZrC-SiO₂) nanostructures in various nanotechnology and optical applications. In furthermore, there will be a rise in the optical parameters absorption coefficient, extinction coefficient, refractive index, real and imaginary dielectric constants, and optical conductivity. As the frequency of the supplied electrical field increases, the dielectric loss (ε″) and dielectric constant (ε′) for nanocomposites decrease, but they rise as the percentage of nanoparticles (NPs) increases. The dielectric constant and A.C. electrical conductivity (σ _a.c) rise by approximately 132% and 95%, respectively, when the content of (ZrC-SiO₂) reaches 5 wt% at a frequency of 100 Hz. The results of the pressure sensor application demonstrate that, in comparison to other sensors, the (PS-ZrC-SiO₂) nanostructures have better environmental durability, extraordinary flexibility, and remarkable pressure sensitivity; it reaches 72.07 at the highest addition rate. In light of the findings, PS-ZrC-SiO₂ nanostructures are attractive materials for a variety of optoelectronic nanodevices because doping PS with (ZrC-SiO₂) NPs improved the optical, structural, and A.C electrical characteristics. Practically it can be used in pressure electrical sensor.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":776,"journal":{"name":"Silicon","volume":"17 2","pages":"391 - 409"},"PeriodicalIF":2.8,"publicationDate":"2024-12-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143361989","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Brown planthopper, BPH, is the most serious pest of rice which can cause epidemic losses. Though deployment of durable resistant variety is the safest and economic method of management, the breakdown of resistance is commonly being observed in several cases forcing farmers to use chemical pesticides. Under the negative effects of these chemical pesticides, Silicon provides a promising option as it is beneficial to plants, in alleviating the biotic and abiotic stress by imparting resistance. In the present investigation, attempt was made to manage the pest using different sources of Silicon mainly, Ca₂SiO₄, KSiO₃ and MgSiO₃. All the three forms of Si were applied as seed priming and soil application at 50 and 100 mg/kg of soil. The results showed that, application of Silicon sources enhanced plant growth promoting traits like germination (7–11.50%), seedling length (29.62–45.42%), seedling vigor (35.25–53.28%), seedling weight (33.57–56.19%), number of tillers (40.66–54.79%), number of grains (12.77–20.69%) and grain yield (32.20–49.67%). Significant reduction in pest incidence was recorded evidenced by lowest nymphs settled/plant, lowest nymphal survival, lowest fecundity, increased developmental period, lowest feeding area, maximum probing marks, lowest Functional Plant Loss Index and lowest percent wilted plants.

Here, a metamaterial-based polarization converter is designed which can be tuned by varying the chemical potential of graphene. Dual band circular polarized (CP) waves are generated by an asymmetric Z-slotted graphene patch on a silicon dioxide constituted substrate. A Z-shaped conductor made of vanadium dioxide (VO₂) is added in the slot to convert the metasurface from a CP converter into a cross-polarization converter. Optimizations in the design have been performed using Actor-Critic method with A3C (Asynchronous Actor-Critic Agents), which is a type of reinforcement learning algorithm. The apparatus is engineered to function based on the idea of refractive index (RI) sensing, which involves detecting the frequency shift of the maximum polarization conversion peak in the presence of the target compound. Insulator to metallic phase conversion of VO₂ alters its dielectric properties like permittivity and conductivity due to variation of the anatomy of electron orbitals. By increasing the temperature of VO₂, tunability in polarization conversion can be achieved due to its phase transition. Two degrees of freedom are thus present for tunability in polarization conversion. The change in maximum polarization conversion frequency is proportional to the RI difference between malignant and healthy cells.
