RESUMO
A complexation route mediated synthesis of orthorhombic antimony sulfide nanoparticles is described in this report where uniformly distributed particles within the size range of 2-12 nm are stabilized within the aniline matrix. The organic-inorganic hybrid system was investigated for dielectric capacitance and electric field-induced polarization performances under varying temperature and frequency conditions. The AC-conductivity revealed a correlated barrier hopping conduction mechanism in the hybrid system. A fatigue free polarization was achieved under the electric field of 9 kV mm-1 for the preformed antimony sulfide system with a stable value of 0.18 µC cm-2. The in situ dielectric capacitance and field dependent polarization measurements were also performed for the in situ synthesized antimony sulfide using the antimony-aniline complex as the precursor.
RESUMO
A single pot, wet chemical route has been applied for the synthesis of polymer supported copper azide, CuN3, nanoparticles (CANP). The hybrid system was used as 'catalyst-cum-reagent' for the azide-alkyne cyclo-addition reaction to construct triazole molecules using substituted benzyl bromide and terminal alkyne. The electron donating group containing terminal alkyne produced 5-alkynyl 1,4-disubstituded triazole product whereas for alkyne molecule with terminal electron withdrawing group facilitate the formation of 1,4-disubstituted triazole molecule.
RESUMO
As part of a program to investigate the materials for resistive random access memory (ReRam) applications, a study has been conducted using embedded manganese oxysulfide (MOS) nanoparticles on the thin film of carbon nitride (CN). A high-temperature in-situ route was employed to synthesis CN-MOS composite where thiourea and manganese chloride was used as the precursor. The electrical property of the CN-MOS composite system (active layer), sandwiched between two gold electrodes, was measured under different sweeping (voltage) conditions. The device displayed different types of switching patterns, unipolar, and bipolar, by changing the sweep direction. The CN-MOS based device also exhibited good endurance and memory retention performances for the period of 104 cycles and 104 s, respectively, for both the polarities.
RESUMO
A single-pot, wet chemical method has been reported for the synthesis of bismuth fluoride nanoparticles (BF) and functionalized BF within the network of carbon nitride (BFCN). In BFCN, a structural transformation of BF, from cubic to pseudo-cubic (as evidenced by Rietveld refinement analysis), confirmed the contribution of carbon nitride (CN) on functionalization. The effect of functionalization of BF has been investigated through dielectric and field-induced polarization studies under different temperature and frequency conditions. Enhancement of dielectric constant values was noticed in BFCN as compared with BF system, in the order of 2.5 (30 °C) and 8.0 (100 °C) at 100 Hz. Fatigue-free maximum polarization values of 0.041 µC/cm2 and 0.054 µC/cm2, under the electric field of 5 kV/mm, were achieved for BF and BFCN samples, respectively, for 5 × 103 cycles.
RESUMO
An organic-inorganic complexation method was applied for the synthesis of bismuth-manganese bimetallic oxide (BMO) nanoparticles where highly dispersed oxide particles were stabilized in an organic matrix (hexamethylenediamine). The as-synthesized hybrid material was subjected to microscopic, optical, and structural studies to gain comprehensive insights into the system. In the X-ray diffraction pattern, the majority of the diffracted peaks are matched to the orthorhombic phase of the Bi3Mn2O7 structure. To extract the electrochemical property, the hybrid system was applied as an anode material and investigated for supercapacitive performance under alkaline conditions. The specific capacitance obtained was 612 F·g-1 at the current density of 1 A·g-1, and under the same current density, the energy density and power density achieved were 137.78 W·h·kg-1 and 0.90 kW·kg-1, respectively.
RESUMO
An organic-inorganic hybrid system of aniline stabilized bismuth iodide nanoparticles (ABI) was synthesized and investigated for its dielectric properties, AC-conductivity, polarization hysteresis and non-volatile memory performances. The X-ray diffraction result indicates the single phase crystalline nature of the nanoparticles and a microscopic image shows the homogeneous distribution of the bismuth iodide nanoparticles within the organic matrix. The material has exhibited a moderate dielectric performance via an interfacial polarization mechanism. The decrease in dielectric constant with frequency is correlated with the carrier concentration and diffusion potential, and the behaviour revealed that the halide ion mediated polaron migration controls the overall relaxation and conductivity properties of the material. Octahedral distortion of bismuth iodide, through halide ion migration, induced a hysteresis loop in polarization-electric field (P-E) characteristics. The device fabricated with the aniline stabilized bismuth iodide nanoparticles exhibited a space-charge limited current and trap assisted tunneling mechanism for the charge transport process. The non-volatile property reveals that the device has the ability to store binary information and has potential for memory applications.
