Oblique propagation of dust acoustic solitary waves in a magnetized plasma in the presence of cairns-tsallis distributed ions

We investigate the effects of non-extensivity (q), non-thermality (α), obliqueness (l z), the strength of the magnetic field (ω c), and dust grain temperature (σ d) on the basic features (viz., amplitude, width, velocity, and soliton energy) of obliquely propagating dust-acoustic solitary waves (DASWs) in a magnetized dusty plasma, which consists of highly negatively charged dust grains, Boltzmann-distributed electrons, and nonthermal non-extensive Cairns-Tsallis (CT)-distributed ions. First, we derived the expression of the CT polarization force and analyzed the combined effects of the ions' non-extensivity (q) and non-thermality (α) parameters on the magnitude (R) of this polarization force. Our results show that R strongly depends on both the q-parameter and the α-parameter. Specifically, for q< 1, the ions' non-extensivity and non-thermality weaken the polarization force, whereas for q> 1, R shifts toward higher values …

Influence of Si on the thermal expansion behavior and photo-electrochemical protection of Al-13 wt.% Si binary casting alloy

The coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) of aluminum-based alloys and the corrosion resistance are related to the microstructural parameters. The Al-13 wt.% Si alloy showed a smaller CTE than that of Al, due to the precipitation of a finely dispersed Si phase in the α-Al matrix. The difference of CTE and structures between Al matrix and Si particles produces a stress, thus increasing the dislocation density, while the Si particles improve the alloy hardness. The second part of this work is dedicated to the photo-electrochemical exploitation of CdS, n-type semiconductor for the cathodic protection of Al-13 wt.% Si alloy in seawater, one of the most corrosive media. The corrosion was significantly inhibited by short-circuiting the alloy to CdS irradiated by visible light (λ < 520 nm). The electrode potential of Al-13 wt.% Si is cathodically shifted under illumination, confirming the photo-electrochemical protection where the corrosion current density diminishes from 2.6 (in the dark) to 1.7 µA cm−2 under sunlight (103 mW cm−2).

Effect of ZnO doping co-carried out by Co–Cu on nonlinear optical properties prepared by the spin coating method

In the present work, thin films of ZnO co-doped with Co and Cu cations were obtained on glass substrate, combining the sol gel process and spin-coating technique. For the compound, the general chemical formula used was: Zn1-x-zCoxCuzO, [(x; z) = (0.00; 0.00), (0.02; 0.02), (0.04; 0.04) and (0.06; 0.06)]. For pure ZnO film, the surface morphology is composed by small spherical grains that present interstitial spaces, while the films obtained from the simultaneous Co and Cu insertion in the ZnO structure are more dense and interstitial spaces disappear. For all films, the X-ray diffraction patterns testify the monophasic phase formation, typical of the hexagonal structure of ZnO. In addition, the films presented preferential orientation in the (002) direction. It was demonstrated that the Zn2+ cations by Co2+ and Cu2+ cations replacement, causes relevant modifications in the lattice parameter (c), crystallite size (D)

Study on quaternary diamond-like Li2CaGeO4 properties for optoelectronic applications

The materials properties of quaternary diamond-like Li2CaGeO4 have been studied. The computations are used through the full-potential linearized augmented plane wave method within the local orbitals and ultra-soft pseudo-potentials. Calculated structural parameters are found to be accordant with those of experiment. The elastic anisotropy of the crystal under focus is visualized and discussed. The calculated elastic constants Cij can permit the determination of the macroscopic mechanical parameters of the material under focus. The low-values of bulk modulus and shear modulus indicate that the material under focus should be a soft material. The higher is the value of the Young's modulus, the stiffer is the material of interest. The material under study is found to be an H→Г indirect band gap semiconductor. The main contributions are due to the Li-p and Li-s orbitals. By increasing the temperature results in a slight decrease of the dielectric constant. The authors findings regarding the electronic and optical spectra reveal that the candidates of interest can be a promising materials in optoelectronic devices for visible and ultraviolet domains.

Effect of Annealing of Co-DOPED ZnO Thin Films on Structural and Magnetic Properties Deposited by Sol-Gel Technique

Cobalt-doped ZnO films were grown on the glass substrates using sol-gel/spin-coating technique to investigate the effect of annealing on the structural and magnetic properties. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns of the Co-doped ZnO films are dominated by the (002) peak, suggesting an up-standing array of ZnO structure hexagonal (wurtzite) with a good crystalline quality, however, the secondary phases of Co3O4 and Co are present in the samples. With the annealing temperature increased, the secondary phases tend to disappear completely and the intensity of the (002) peak increased, indicating a high crystallinity of the samples. For the ZnO majority phase, the lattice constant (c) decreases (from 5.232 Å to 5.224 Å), while the crystallite size increases (from 22.040nm to 24.018nm) as the annealing temperature varies from 380∘C to 600∘C. Significant changes in the dislocation density (δ), strain (εc) and stress (σc) of the Co-doped ZnO films were also observed, by increasing the annealing temperature. All samples display a ferromagnetic behavior with variations in the saturation magnetization (Ms=1.31×10−5, 1.19×10−5 and 1.15×10−5 emu/cm3) and coercive field (Hc=82, 104 and 75 Oe) for the temperatures of 380∘C, 500∘C and 600∘C, respectively. The magnetic behavior of Co-doped ZnO films confirms the exchange interaction between the local spin moments produced by the oxygen vacancy. In addition, the ferromagnetic existence of the samples (380∘C, 500∘C and 600∘C) can be attributed to certain nanoparticles or to the binding of Co+2 ions at the Zn+2 location in the ZnO lattice. Finally, it appears that the ferromagnetism at room temperature found in these films, is consistent with endogenous defects (oxygen vacancies) and magnetic ions insertion along the same lines.

Study of structural and optical properties of nanostructure Ni doped ZnO thin films prepared by sol–gel spin coating technique

In this work undoped, thin films and doped ZnO with iron concentrations were deposited on glass substrates by sol-gel spin coating. The doping concentrations of Ni are 0, 2, and 5 (% mol). The structural and optical properties were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XDR) and by UV-visible spectrometry. The results show that all the thin films crystallized in the wurtzaite hexagonal structure with a preferential orientation according to the atomic plane (002). The lattice parameter a has increased and the lattice parameter c decreased as a function of the Ni concentration. We also note that the crystallite size increases with the Ni concentration, with a maximum maximal size was found to be about 24 nm for the film of 5D. As far as optical measurements are concerned, we have found that gap energy (Eg) decreases but Urback energy increases with increasing Ni concentration.

Structural and elastic properties of BiOCu1-xS with Cu vacancies

The structural and mechanical properties of BiOCuS with Cu vacancies (BiOCu0.875S) have been investigated by using the first-principles density functional theory within the generalized gradient approximation. Population analysis suggests that the chemical bonding in BiOCu0.875S has predominantly ionic character with mixed covalent−ionic character. Basic physical properties, such as lattice constant, elastic constants Cij, bulk modulus B, shear modulus G, were calculated. The elastic modulus E and Poisson ratio ν the ratio B/G, shear anisotropy and elastic anisotropy βc/βa were also predicted. The results show that tetragonal phase BiOCu0.875S is mechanically stable and behaves in a ductile manner.

Theoretical investigation of elastic and phononic properties of Zn1-xBexO alloys

Our calculations were conducted within density functional theory (DFT) and density functional perturbation theory (DFPT) using norm-conserving pseudo-potential and the local density approximation. The elastic constants of Zn1−xBexO were calculated, C11, C33 and C44 increase with the increase of Be content, whereas the C12 shows a non-monotonic variation and C13 decreases when Be concentration increases. The values of bulk modulus B, Young’s modulus E and shear modulus G increase with the increase of Be content. Poisson’s ratio σ decreases with increased Be concentration. The ductility decreases with increasing Be concentration and the compressibility for Zn1−xBexO along c-axis is smaller than along a-axis. Phonon dispersion curves show that Zn1−xBexO is dynamically stable (no soft modes). Quantities such as refractive index, Born effective charge, dielectric constants and optical phonon frequencies were calculated as a function of the Be molar fraction x. The agreement between the present results and the known data that are available only for ZnO and BeO is generally satisfactory. Our results for Zn1−xBexO(0<x<1) are predictions.

Robust half-metallic ferromagnet of quaternary Heusler compounds ZrCoTiZ (Z= Si, Ge, Ga and Al)

A first-principles approach is used to study the structural, electronic and magnetic properties of ZrCoTiZ(Z = Si, Ge, Ga and Al) quaternary Heusler compounds, using full-potential linearized augmented plane wave (FP-LAPW) scheme within the GGA. Our calculations predict that ZrCoTiSi, ZrCoTiGe, ZrCoTiGa and ZrCoTiAl are half-metallic ferromagnets (HMFs) with a HM flip gaps of 1.03, 0.90, 0.68 and 0.59 eV, respectively. The half metallicity is found to be robust with respect to the lattice compression and is maintained up to the lattice constant contraction of 6%, 7%, 9% and 8% for ZrCoTiSi, ZrCoTiGe, ZrCoTiGa and ZrCoTiAl respectively. These compounds show a Slater-Pauling behavior and the total spin magnetic moment per unit cell (mtot) scales with the total number of valence electrons (Nv) following the rule mtot = Nv − 18. The formation enthalpies for both structures are negative indicating stability of these
