Summary: The essential aim of this research is to use Phy-X/PSD software to analyze photon attenuation properties of Cu2-II-SnVI4 (II=Mn, Fe; VI =S, Se, Te) quaternary semiconducting compounds at photon energies between 15 keV and 15 MeV. The parameters of photon interaction were determined, and the software was used to compute each sample's R, Zeq, and build-up factors. The HVL and MFP values were compared to previous studies and it was found that Cu2FeSnTe4 is the optimum composite for gamma-ray attenuation and has good neutron attenuation characteristics.

Summary: Cellulose nanofibers (CNFs) derived from rice straw were used to develop effective fluorescent sensors for simultaneous detection of chromium Cr(VI) and mercury Hg(II) ions, addressing the problems of rice straw burning and heavy metal pollution. Modified CNFs with L-histidine (CHIS) exhibited significant fluorescence quenching in response to Cr(VI) and Hg(II) ions, with detection limits of 2.236 nM and 3.97 nM, respectively. XPS studies revealed strong interactions of CHIS with the metal ions, leading to fluorescence quenching. The sensor showed high selectivity, stability, and usability up to 4 cycles.

Summary: Hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) has been recognized as a stable 2D covalent compound, which can be challenging to chemically functionalize, but can be fluorinated using a gas-phase technique to reduce bandgap, exhibit semiconducting behavior, and improve thermal and friction properties. The enhanced friction properties of fluorinated hBN are attributed to reduced inter-planar interaction energy by electrostatic repulsion of intercalated fluorine atoms between hBN layers without disrupting the in-plane lattice, paving the way for applications in magnetism and nanoscale electronic devices.

Summary: Regular rhombic crystals have been synthesized via interface reaction using an 8-hydroxyquinoline derivative coordinated with Zn2+ ions. The crystal size can be controlled by the concentration of the ligand solution. The rhombic crystal exhibits a red-shifted absorption band and orange emission compared to the benzonitrile substituted 8-hydroxyquinoline ligand. Many stacked lamellas were observed in the synthesized crystal, formed by strong interaction forces induced by nitrile groups on the lamella surface.

Summary: This paper reports the enhanced photodetection capabilities of highly flexible polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membranes incorporated with graphene oxide (GO) when illuminated by the solar spectrum. The addition of a small amount of GO into the PVDF matrix improves the dark current and solar photocurrent, leading to increased photoresponsivity and decreased response time. The flexible PVDF/GO composite membranes exhibit better photocurrent in a bending state, attributed to the piezo-phototronic effect.

The resulting hybrid nanostructures showed enhanced power conversion efficiency as photo-anodes in dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) compared to pristine ZnO NW photo-anodes. The improvement in performance was attributed to the improved charge transport, increased contact area, and conductivity modulation of TiO2 by including a conducting GO network. The study also showed that the interfacial effects in the fabricated hybrid nanostructures significantly influenced charge transportation.

Summary: The effect and mechanism of carrier gas velocity, V/III ratio, and carrier gas velocity match on the growth rate of AlN were investigated in this study. The results showed that the growth rate of AlN initially increased with hydrogen flow rate, reached saturation, and then decreased monotonically. The turning point value depended on the equipment and process. By increasing the MO VM, the growth rate of AlN could be improved, but the uniformity deteriorated due to turbulence and loss of uniform boundary layer. High quality AlN films were successfully grown on nano-patterned sapphire substrates with improved crystalline quality and atomic smooth surfaces.

Summary: This study investigates the melting process and nucleation behavior of sodium crystals using molecular dynamics simulation. The results show good agreement between simulated and experimental values for the melting temperature, density, and radial distribution function of sodium. The diffusion coefficient of liquid sodium increases linearly with temperature, and the homogeneous nucleation rate of melting in superheated sodium crystal exponentially increases with temperature. The findings provide theoretical support for applications involving heat and mass transfer in sodium-related systems.

Summary: Epitaxial V2O3 films were fabricated on sapphire substrates using mist chemical vapor deposition (mist CVD) method, eliminating the need for high vacuum conditions. The films can be grown on sapphire substrates even under atmospheric pressure, with the optimal growth temperature at 823 K. The films grown at 823 K exhibit a metal-insulator transition at approximately 155 K. The film on C-plane sapphire exhibits a lower transition temperature compared to those on R- and A-plane sapphire substrates.

The defects in GaN layers grown at different temperatures were studied using photoluminescence technique, and a correlation between leakage currents, structural perfection, and donor concentration in GaN-on-Si layers was established. It was also observed that reduced growth temperature leads to the formation of inversion domains.
