Abstract-The talk will concentrate on various approaches being used to engineer materials at the nanoscale for various applications in future technologies. In particular, the case of clay, carbon nanostructures (e.g. nanotubes, graphene), metal oxides, bionanomaterials (cellulose, starch and chitin) will be used to highlight the challenges and progress. Several polymer systems will be considered such as rubbers, thermoplastics, thermoetts and their blends for the fabrication of functional polymer nanocomposites. The interfacial activity of nanomaterials in compatibilising binary polymer blends will also be discussed. Various self-assembled architectures of hybrid nanostructures can be made using relatively simple processes. Some of these structures offer excellent opportunity to probe novel nanoscale behavior and can impart unusual macroscopic end properties. I will talk about various applications of these materials, taking into account their multifunctional properties. Some of the promising applications of clay, metal oxides, nano cellulose, chitin, carbon nanomaterials and their hybrids will be reviewed. Finally the effect of dewetting up on solvent rinsing on nano scale thin films will also be discussed.

Queensland, Australia & Chairman and Technical Consultant
Bharat Energy Storage Technology (BEST) Pty E-mail: [email protected]
Abstract We have developed an energy storage system utilising the latent heat of molten silicon metalloid at 14140C that has a very high latent heat energy density of 499 Watts per kg and due to the high temperature of molten silicon the stored energy is extracted through solid state high thermal conductivity sintered graphite using a Stirling engine at a Carnot efficiency of 78%. The electrical energy efficiency will be approximately 58% and if used in a combined heat and power (CHP) application the overall efficiency energy input to energy output will be greater than 90%.
As a manufacturing and power utility company with the purpose of developing power generation CO2 elimination technologies and licensing those technologies to stored energy application specific companies such as mobile phone cell-towers, utilities, bus, rail, ferries and any other applications where stored energy is applicable. Further research and development of efficient power cycle technology will be undertaken to increase the energy density and efficiency of operation of the BEST thermal cell. There is a 10-year research and development program which will increase the thermal cell efficiency electrical energy storage from initially >58% (Comparable to Lead Acid Battery) utilising Stirling engines to >90% efficiency utilising closed cycle gas turbine technology (Comparable to Li-Ion Batteries). The Combined Heat and Power efficiency of the BEST thermal cell is 92% with a projected life of over 25 years is a market leader at this stage of development.
The implementation of the BEST thermal cell is different to conventional battery technology. HDTEC is placed between the energy generator and the energy consumption on a 24-hour basis sometimes referred to as base load power. This guarantees an uninterruptable conditioned electrical power output as the HDTEC can be charged and discharged simultaneously this is regardless of how dirty the supplied electrical energy is.

Abstract
Magnetoelectric multiferroics, because of their coupled electric and magnetic ordering in a single phase, are eminent for applications in logic and non-volatile memory devices. During last several years, our group at the university of Puerto Rico (UPR) has been involved in synthesizing novel single phase room temperature multiferroics that included not only solid solutions of lead zirconate titanate with lead iron tungstate, lead iron niobate, and lead iron tantalate, but also recently discovered palladium substituted room temperature multiferroics, namely PbPd0.3Ti0.7O3 and Pb(Zr0.2Ti0.8)Pd0.3O3. In this presentation, we will report recent progress in synthesizing thin films of the above materials utilizing pulsed laser deposition technique on various substrates at Speclab. We will also report results on recently grown Pd substituted lead titanate and lead zirconate titanate thin films showing room temperature multiferroic behavior. The origin of magnetic ordering in these materials was attributed to the existence of Pd2+ and Pd4+ mixed oxidation states of palladium dispersed in the polar matrices. Such multiferroics may have potential applications in nonvolatile memory and other multifunctional devices.

PL-5 Functional magnetic nanoparticles for biomedical applications
Hari Srikanth
Distinguished University Professor & Fellow -American Physical Society
Department of Physics, University of South Florida, Tampa, Florida USA
Abstract Magnetic nanoparticles have been building blocks in applications ranging from high density recording to spintronics and nanomedicine. Magnetic anisotropies in nanoparticles arising from surfaces, shapes and interfaces in hybrid structures are important in determining the functional response in various applications. In this talk I will first introduce the basic aspects of anisotropy and how to tune it in nanostructures. Tuning anisotropy has a direct impact on the performance of functional magnetic nanoparticles in biomedical applications such as improving contrast enhancement in MRI and enhanced magnetic hyperthermia cancer therapy. There is a need to improve the surface functionalization and specific absorption rate (SAR) or heating efficiency of nanoparticles for cancer diagnostics and therapy. Strategies going beyond simple spherical structures such as exchange coupled core-shell nanoparticles, nanowire, nanotube geometries can be exploited to increase saturation magnetization, effective anisotropy and heating efficiency in magnetic hyperthermia. This lecture will combine insights into fundamental physics of magnetic nanostructures along with recent research advances in their application in cancer therapy and diagnostics in nanomedicine.

Energy Storage Technology Present & Future Prospects
R. L. Shrama Managing Director,
Spel Pvt. Ltd., Pune, India Abstract Growing concerns about the environmental impacts of fossil fuels, thrust on adoption of Electric mobility, push for development and utilization of large-scale renewable energies like Solar and wind, and with the development of smart grid, supported by investment and government policies, the prospect of energy storage application has gone up multifold. Potential applications of Energy Storage could be found in the entire spectrum of power systems such as generation, transmission, distribution, and utilization. Energy storage is not new. Batteries have been used since the early 1800s, and the rapid development of energy storage technology and it’s commercialization has created significant impact on power system in terms of future system model. Modern electronic devices/gadgets have developed at extremely high pace, but energy storage devices have not been able to keep pace with these Power-Hungry devices/gadgets. Presently options for energy storage is revolving around batteries particularly the lithium-ion battery, but due recent development in Supercapacitor technology, advancement in materials and reduction in cost of materials, Supercapacitors are fast catching up, and can potentially bridge the gap for critical commercial applications. In fact, Supercapacitors have caught attention due to their unique environment friendly properties, fast charging, wide temperature window, safety, and extremely high power density. Casual overview of these two technologies Batteries and Supercapacitors may give impression that these are competing technologies, but the fact remains that they are complementing technologies. In fact, the development/research trends in these two technologies translates that in quest of further development/advancements batteries wants to inherit supercapacitor capabilities, and supercapacitors want to inherit battery capabilities. This trend is indicative of is converging technology…………

PL-7 Low-temperature synthesized ZnO nanostructures and their integration into
nanosystems
Dr. Guylaine POULIN-VITTRANT GREMAN UMR 7347, CNRS, Université de Tours, INSA-CVL
E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Recent advancements in nanotechnology has led to the development of diverse electronics devices such as nanowire (NW) based transistors1, sensors2 or energy harvesters3. Such electronic devices are of great interest to academia as well as for industries. ZnO NWs are potential candidates for such applications, due to their excellent electrical and optical properties. However, a low cost and scalable fabrication technique is essential for the synthesis of ZnO NWs, in order for them to be used in industry. Hydrothermal (HT) synthesis of ZnO NWs have shown to operate at low temperatures (< 100°C)4,5 in comparison with the VLS growth techniques (>700°C)6, thus making them compatible with flexible substrates. First I will present a facile, cost-effective and industrially scalable process flow for the fabrication of high performance stretchable nanogenerators (NG) on polydimethylsiloxane substrate. The NG device exhibits excellent performance with a 35 μW peak output power achieved from a 8 cm2 device under a pressure of 100 kPa. Moreover, we investigated ZnO nanostructures for FETs on both conventional rigid (Si/SiO2) and unconventional flexible substrates (polyethylene terephthalate PET). The electrical characterization results (field-effect mobility, on/off current ratio, sub-threshold slope) reveal the potential of the present nanomaterials for high performance electronics. The key issues of efficient NGs and FETs will be presented, taking into account the technological constraints. This opens horizons for integrating high quality ZnO nanostructures as active semiconducting elements for autonomous flexible electronic circuits.

WINV-3 Understanding the Optical Properties of Luminescent Semiconductor
Nanocrystals

Abstract Nanoscale semiconductor materials typically show behaviour which is intermediate between that of a macroscopic solid and that of an atomic or molecular system. In order to rationalize (and predict) the physical properties of nanoscale materials, such as their electrical and thermal conductivity, or their absorption and emission spectra, their energy level structure needs first to be determined. Many properties specific to nanosized materials are related to the type of motion the charge carriers are allowed to execute when they are forced to dwell in confined structures. The unusual characteristics of these systems can only be explained by the laws of quantum mechanics [1,2]; the behaviour of the particles inside them being obtainable by solving the related Schrödinger equation. To understand, we take a simple example of quantum confinement, namely, ‘electron in a box’. This kind of quantum confinement can also be created in real structures by exercising sufficient control of the dimension of the particles by the appropriate processes. To achieve a discrete evolution of energy levels, the length scale of a semiconductor particle should become comparable to exciton Bohr diameter. If a semiconductor nanostructure is prepared such that only one dimension satisfies the size requirement, one has a quantum-well structure, two dimensions –a quantum wire and if all the three dimensions are sufficiently small, one has a quantum dots. The spatial confinement of charge carriers is maximized in quantum dot, where no dimension is available for the excitons to execute a free motion, therefore they are also called 0D materials and the term ‘dot’ also symbolizes the lost dimensions. The quantum confinement is clearly evidenced by the blue shift in the absorption edge with decreasing size[3]. As compared to bulk material, the radiative recombination of electron-and hole is more pronounced because of decreased electron-phonon coupling in quantum dots. These nanocrystals also exhibit size dependent luminescence with narrow emission spectra and broad excitation [4]. For some of the semiconductors like CdSe and CdTe, particle size can be tuned to get any desired emission in the visible range with photoluminescence quantum efficiency (PLQE) as high as 70-85%[1-3] This makes them invaluable for several biological and device applications.

WINV-4 Quantum Dots and their diverse applications
Mr. Sovan Kumar Patra
Ferro Alloys Minerals Research Group, Tata Steel R&D, Jamshedpur, India Abstract Unique Size dependent Quantum Dots are fascinating and finds widespread commercial application especially in the field of optoelectronics such as light emitting diode and photovoltaic cells. They were of great interest as the photo luminescent properties can be significantly enhanced by optimization their synthetization processes. The emission wavelength depends on the size of the QDs, fluorescence during the synthesis process can easily be regulated by change of size. The tunable bandgap makes it well prominent in the application of photocatalysis and electrocatalysis. They also performed significantly well in comparison to traditional organic dyes used in modern biological analysis. However, the control of their size is still a challenge when scaled up industrially for synthesis of high quality quantum dots. Key problems need to be addressed in terms of producing tools, the modifying of QDs optical properties and technological faults in QDs interfaces to improve performance. References: 1.

Abstract The next generation of electronic devices mainly depends on the flexibility, adaptability, portability, cost-effective fabrication approaches along with the better functional properties of nanomaterials. The smart electronic device, sensor technology relay on the four major components, such as active sensing material, processing channel, interfacing unit, and a battery source. The extensive use of piezoelectric nanogenerator (PNG), actuator, transducer and sensor devices in the commercial market highly depend on the type of material used, functional properties, synthesis conditions, and device modeling parameters. Over the last decade, significant progress happens on the growth of piezoelectric nanostructures or sensing materials (Nanowires, Nanosheets, Nanowalls, etc.) by cost-effective synthesis routes, which are useful to develop the flexible PNG and self-powered sensors (SPSs). The advancements in the design of flexible PNG and its output power performance, suggesting that it can act as a sustainable micro-power source to power up low power electronic devices or can work as SPS. The PNG/SPS technology has many benefits over conventional energy harvesting technology. The advantages are saving the usage of natural resources (coal, gas, and fossil fuels), converting the abundant waste mechanical motions (wind/water flow, vehicle/human body motions) into green electricity, and removal of battery components. This talk mainly discussed the growth approaches, device modeling techniques, and the critical fabrication parameters to develop multiple smart applications in electronic, biomedical, and surveillance applications.

Worldwide COVID19 has changed the prospect of human life. There are always two sides to a coin, i.e. positive and negative. So COVID19 also comes with some positive and some negative notes, human beings are confined in a limited place and have limited access to medical and essential facilities due to COVID and NON-COVID patients. However, due to confinement, online service is an essential and easy way to reach the common people, in terms of scientific knowledge or commodities. In this regard, I will discuss the development of non-contact IR sensors based on piezoelectric materials/devices which are used to measure the human body temperature almost everywhere to prevent the COVID cases and its contagious effects. The low-cost portable IR sensors are very useful for fast, accurate, and precise detection of human body temperature. I will also discuss the development of blood pressure sensors which are made of a dielectric and flexible polymer which may further extend the understanding of the physiological phenomena of COVID19 patients as well as the healthy and cheerful soul.

INV-1 Emerging Two-Dimensional Lateral Heterostructures for Optoelectronic
Devices

Abstract
Two-dimensional (2D) transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) and their heterostructures have opened a new and rich field of research with exciting properties and novel applications in ultra-smart and flexible optoelectronic devices, including tunneling transistors, diodes, memory devices, LEDs, solar cells, photodetectors, quantum emitters and sensors. There are enormous possibilities to combine different types of 2D TMDs in vertical and in-plane directions for controlling and manipulating carriers such as electrons, holes, excitons, polariton, and for fundamentally new discoveries. To dates, several proof-of-principle 2D devices mostly relay on mechanical exfoliation of different van der Waals materials. This approach can result in interfacial contamination during the transfer process, and lacks scalability. In addition, the optoelectronic performance of most 2D heterostructure based devices falls far below the theoretical predicted values. Hence, direct fabrication of 2D heterostructure is the need of the hours. Unlike vertical heterostructures, lateral heterostructures are possible only via direct growth, which can offer tremendous opportunities for engineering the formation, confinement and transport of charge carriers at the ultimate thickness limits. Even though several TMDs heterostructure growth strategies have been reported, however, rational understanding of the growth mechanism of TMDs based heterostructures is still in its fancy, looking towards controlled physical property manipulation and large-scale applications. These major challenges will be discussed. Recently, we demonstrated a novel and scalable protocol for the direct growth of wide range of high-quality in-plane TMDs heterostructures in the form of MoX2-WX2 (where X= Se and/or S) with controlled number of layers (monolayer and bilayer) via water-assisted chemical-vapor-deposition process.1,2 Our method offers greater flexibility for the in-situ creation of multiple heterojunctions as well as manipulating degree of alloying across hetero-interfaces.1-5
Electrical transport measurements revealed diode-like responses across the 2D lateral junctions. We found that bilayer heterostrcures are as robust as monolayer, in terms of optoelectronic characteristics such as observation of room temperature electroluminescance.2 Future challenges using 2D heterostructures for optoelectronic device applications will be discussed.

Non-linear absorption behavior of carbonaceous nanomaterials for laser
safety application Balaram Sahoo
Materials Research Centre, Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore-560012 India Abstract Optical communication in optoelectronics is one among the emerging areas, where laser based devices are extensively used. Exposure to the high intensity laser has many hazardous effects on human health. Hence, laser safety is considered to be very important nationally and internationally. Laser shields, at present, have highly absorbing non-linear optical materials. Absorption of laser beam in these materials is related to various non-linear inelastic processes such as multi-photon absorption (2-photon absorption (2PA), 3-photon absorption (3PA), etc.), free carrier absorption (FCA), excited state absorption (ESA) and saturated absorption (SA) etc. [1-4]. With the emergence of nanotechnology, the electronic properties of non-linearly absorbing nanomaterials can be tuned to further enhance the non-linear absorption (NLA) behavior. Among the available nanomaterials carbon based materials are of excellent choice due to their light-weightiness, corrosion resistance, high electrical conductivity, ease of tuning the concentration of defects and related electronics properties. In this talk, I will demonstrate the science and technology related to synthesis of carbonaceous nanomaterials and study of their NLA behavior towards laser safety applications. Among the carbonaceous materials, the carbon globules and carbon nanotubes embedded with iron (Fe), cobalt and nickel nanoparticles cores-graphitic shells are exceptionally important. These materials were synthesized by a single-step pyrolysis technique. The effect of degree of graphitization and thickness of the graphitic shell on the metallic nanoparticles, were found to be the important parameters controlling and enhancing the NLA property in these materials. The attractiveness of our studied materials lies in their excellent NLA behavior, making them preferable candidates for their direct use in laser safety application. References:

Email: [email protected] Abstract: Multiferroics is a special and rare class of unique materials that exhibits the coexistence of two or more ferroic order parameter particularly in single phase materials at specific temperature. In an attempt to enhance multiferricity in BiFeO3, rare earth (Gd, Ho and Ce) doped with BiFeO3 bulk ceramics are prepared by novel slow step sintering schedule. The doped material shows monophasic character with significant reduction of leakage current. Incorporation of rare earth ion (for example Gd) nucleates and develops orthorhombic grain growth habit by suppressing the original rhomohedral phase. We observed room temperature enhanced P-E as well as M-H loop. These developed materials have the potential ability to couple both ferroelectric and magnetic order parameter which is the basic blocks of future generation spintronics devices. Detail comparative study along with important experimental findings wll be present during presentation. Key words: Multiferroics, Doping, BiFeO3, Ferroelectric, Magnetic

It is the duty of doctors, researchers, and civic societies to extend awareness among the common people as well as intellectuals to understand the importance of blood pressure for their fitness and a healthy economy. Early and accurate detection of blood pressure may prevent heart failure, kidney dysfunction, and impairment in other vital human organs. More than 30% of the deaths are due to the wrong and untimely measurement of hypertension in India. This talk relates to the path for the discovery of human blood pressure and its measuring devices. A low-cost affordable blood pressure measuring devices will be discussed which may further extend to various physiological applications.

INV-6 Soft Chemistry Routes for tunable plasmonic nanomaterials and some interesting
applications thereof
Amiya Priyam Dept. of Chemistry, School of Physical and Chemical Sciences, Central University of South
Bihar, SH-7, Gaya-Panchanpur Road, Gaya- 824236
Abstract Silver and gold nanocrystals have caught the imagination of scientific community worldwide due to the unique optical phenomenon called “Surface Plasmon Resonance (SPR)”. The talk describes the soft chemistry approaches that we have developed to obtain plasmonic nanocrystals of silver having tunable size, shape and structure. Application of such nansostructures in surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS), solar-catalysis and enhanced luminescence bio-imaging and cancer therapy will also be discussed. The choice of silver stems from the fact that it has highest quality factor for surface plasmons and greater photothermal efficiency in the spectral region of 400-1200 nm. Thus, it presents an opportunity to study the plasmonic properties over wide wavelength region and harness them for suitable applications.
Hollow silver nanoshells with tunable plasmon bands were synthesized by employing a combination of mild reductant (hydrazine hydrate) and a mild stabilizer (sodium citrate). The plasmon peak was tuned in a wide range from 460 nm to 605 nm. In the second part, hydrogen-bonding interaction driven single-step synthesis route was developed to obtain spectrally narrow, tunable anisotropic silver nanocrystals. Shapes have been varied from nanospheres to nanoplates to nanopyramids. Concomitantly, a versatile tunability of plasmon peaks from visible (500 nm) to near-IR (1010 nm) region has been achieved by tailoring the hydrogen bonding interaction between mild stabilizer, citrate, and mild reductant, hydrazine hydrate. Furthermore, the Anisotropic Silver NCs vis-à-vis spherical have been found to act as an excellent SERS tool for the detection of metal ion contaminants such as of As (III), Cr(III) and Cr(VI) Hollow silver nanocubes were found to be very good solar photocatalyst in the entire visible range at sub-picomolar level. In another application, the plasmonic gold nanoshell was overcoated onto luminescence upconversion nanocrystals (UCNs). These the nanoparticles were then developed as a dual mode imaging probe for cancer cells.

Abstract Multiferroics, exhibiting simultaneous co-existence of long-range electrical, magnetic, and elastic order in a single phase have been studied extensively due to their potential in futuristic magnetoelectric memory, spintronic as well as energy harvesting applications. Apart from these possible technological applications multiferroics also present intriguing physics related to the coexistence of multiple ferroic orders with the contradictory origin and their coupling. Among the existing, very few single-phase room temperature multiferroics Gallium ferrite (GaFeO3) is a technologically exciting system that demonstrates ferroelectricity with polar orthorhombic Pc21n symmetry and tunable ferrimagnetism. GaFeO3 single crystals suffer from poor leakage characteristics and are unable to demonstrate ferroelectric polarization switching. Our studies on epitaxial GaFeO3 thin films grown by pulsed laser deposition, PLD showed 180◦ phase-shifted piezoelectric nanodomains at room temperature. PLD epitaxial growth is an expensive technique of growing highquality thin films of a small area on costly single crystalline substrates unfavorable for technological applications. Therefore, we grew highly oriented GaFeO3 thin films on commercially available platinized-silicon substrates using a cost-effective solution deposition technique that demonstrate room temperature multiferroism with polarization switching at the poled ferroelectric domains. However, the polarization reversal costs a very high coercive field inappropriate for memory device applications. In recent days, novel functionalities of nanocrystalline systems have been achieved by varying geometries, size, and crystallographic structure of the exposed surfaces. In this context, GFO nanocrystals were synthesized with another polar crystal symmetry, rhombohedral R3c using facile hydrothermal conditions for the first time followed by heat treatment. Structural phase evolution is characterized using X-ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy, electron microscopy, and temperaturedependent impedance spectroscopy. The ferroelectric nature of the novel R3c phase has been studied using piezo-response force microscopy and macroscopic polarization hysteresis measurement. Polar rhombohedral R3c GaFeO3 opens up the possibility of the usage of gallium ferrite nanocrystals in ferroelectric memories. Keywords: Ferroelectrics, Gallium Ferrite, Thin film and nanostructure

Abstract The modern society’s foremost parameter is to make things in amore accessiblemanner, saving natural resources, andeco-friendly operation. Also,the criticalpoint is to remove the toxic, complex battery sources by the alternative energy sources, which arecoming from the surrounding environments.Multifunctional piezoelectric materials gained great attention due to a broad range of scopes such as flexibility, adaptability to measure non-linear surface motions, large scale fabrication, and high output power, accepting high mechanical force and low leakage current losses. The present work discussed the development of sustainable energy harvesting piezoelectric materials, composite structures, and human hair-sized wires with cost-effective, lower time consuming and eco-friendly techniques. Single hemispherical shape-flexible composite strip piezoelectric nanogenerator (HS-CSPNG) generates 130 V/800 nA upon hand force. Similarly, flexible wire shaped-PNG (FW-PNGs) produces a peak-to-peak voltage/current 7 V/600 nA upon 2 N. HS-CSPNG device can work as a self-powered muscle monitoring system (SP-MMS) to measure maximum human body part movements, i.e., spinal cord, throat, jaw, elbow, knee, foot stress, palm hand/finger force and inhale/exhale breath conditions at a time or at variable time intervals. FW-PNG used as a power source to drive the TiO2 NSs/Ti-wire based-UV sensor via a parallel connection between them. This type of adaptable, flexible strip/wire based PNGs are highly suitable to measure any non-linear surface motions/rotations compared to traditional planar PNG devices can be a potential micro-power source to drive low power consumed electronics.

Abstract
A simple and low-cost solution combustion method was used to prepare Eu3+ (1-11 mol%) doped
Mg2SiO4 nanophosphors at 350 0 C using metal nitrates as precursors and ODH
(Oxali di-hydrazine) as fuel. The final products were well characterized by powder x-ray
diffraction (PXRD), fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), scanning electron
microscopy (SEM) and UV-visible absorption (UV-Vis). The PXRD patterns of the as-formed
products show single orthorhombic phase. The crystallite size was estimated using Scherrer’s
method and found to be in the range 20-25 nm. The effect of Eu3+ cations on the luminescence
properties of Mg2SiO4:Eu3+ nanoparticles were understood from the luminescence studies. The
phosphors exhibit bright red emission upon 393 nm excitation. The characteristic emission peaks
recorded at ~577, 590, 612, 650 and 703 nm (5D0→7Fj=0,1,2,3,4) were attributed to the 4f–4f intra
shell transitions of Eu3+ ions. The intensity of red emission was found to be related with the
concentration of intrinsic defects, especially oxygen-vacancies, which could assist the energy
transfer from the Mg2SiO4 host to the Eu3+ ions. The Commission International De I-Eclairage
(CIE) chromaticity co-ordinates were calculated from emission spectra, the values (x,y) were very
close to National Television System Committee (NTSC) standard value of red emission.
Therefore, the present phosphor was highly useful for display applications.

Abstract: The focus of this paper aims at addressing the contemporary issues, i.e., agglomeration
and non-uniform dispersion of reinforcement particles prevailing with stir casting method of
fabricating metal matrix composites. Although it has been dealt with different approaches, viable
optimal technique has not evolved so far. A novel encapsulate feeding technique aimed to
accomplish uniform dispersion of ceramic reinforcement particles. In this research, we have
chosen Aluminum Alloy 6061 (AA 6061) as a matrix material and cubic boron nitride (c-BN) as
a reinforcement companion to form a unique combination of advanced aluminum composites to
prove this innovative feeding technique. Two percent of Mg added in every casting as a wetting
agent to improve binding nature between metals and ceramics. The Aluminum Boron Nitride
(Al/BN) composites are fabricated through bottom type of pouring stir casting machine.
Metallographic characterization ensures uniform particle dispersion. The composites are tested
using pin-fin apparatus and Xe-flash laser setup and found enhanced (12%) thermal properties
than pure AA 6061.

Abstract — We report the effects of the magnetic field on resistive switching behavior in
Ag/BiFeO3/FTO RRAM device through conventional I-V characteristics. The switching of device
from high resistance state (HRS) to low resistance state (LRS) at a certain threshold voltage (Vt)
evident a shift under the magnetic influence. The shifting of Vt towards higher voltage is due to
the appearance of the Lorentz force and magnetoelectric effect when the magnetic field is applied
perpendicular to the flow of current. The resistance of HRS and LRS increases simultaneously
under the application of the magnetic field due to the induced Hall resistance effect. The OFF/ON
ratio ~12, which is repeatable for 100 multiple cycles. The discrete RESET state of the device is
achieved by pulse-width and pulse-height modulation. Substantially, the resistance of these states
increases systematically under the action of the magnetic field. The control of resistance states
with pulse-height and magnetic field in Ag/BiFeO3/FTO promise for future multilevel non-
volatile memory technology.

email:[email protected], Mob-9437603327 Multiferroics belong to the family of multifunctional oxides in which ferroelectric, ferromagnetic and ferroelastic behaviors coexist in the same materials system. Among them, BiFeO3 (BFO) is a noticeable multifunctional candidate for possible technological applications because of its room temperature magnetic and ferroelectric properties having high Curie (1103K) and Neel (643K) temperature. Furthermore BFO shows photocatalytic performance in UV light rather than visible light which can be used for degradation of various organic dyes. However, there are some drawbacks like appearance of secondary phase, low magnetization value, high dielectric loss value and small remnant polarization, obstruct the exploitation of BFO in its practical application. Therefore, several attempts such as doping of suitable elements both at A- and B-site of BFO or modifications in process parameters or reduction of particle size to nano scale, have been adopted by researchers to improve the multiferroic as well as photocatalytic properties of BFO. In this report, pure phase BiFeO3 and Bi0.98Sr0.02Fe1-xCoxO3 (x=0.01, 0.03, 0.05 and 0.07) nanoparticles were successfully synthesized by facile sol-gel route. A significant reduction of average particle size (64 to 41 nm) was observed co-doped BFO nanoparticles due to slower growth rate. Mössbauer spectra confirmed the change in oxidation state of iron from Fe3+ to Fe2+ for higher doping concentration of Co. Further, doping of Sr and Co into A- and B- site of BiFeO3 lattice remarkably enhanced the saturation magnetization value from 0.8 emu/g to 2.3 emu/g and remnant magnetization from 0.08 emu/g to 0.532 emu/g. The improvement of magnetic properties was attributed to the breaking of cycloidal spin structure, more number of uncompensated spin on the surface, and oxygen vacancies. Moreover, the specific surface area was found to be highest 53 m2/g for 7% Co doped BFO as compared to pure BFO, due to its smaller average particle size. A tuning of optical band gap from 2.37 eV to 1.87eV was observed by co-doping of Sr, Co which confirms the enhancement of the photocatalytic performance of the synthesized samples. 7% Co doped sample exhibited a high photocatalytic degradation of RhB dye as compared to other samples. This was due to larger specific surface area, smaller average particle size and lower band gap. The recycling ability of the material was tested and found to be negligible (~1%) decrease in degradation efficiency after ten cycles, suggesting highly stable for practical application. The current investigation illustrates the importance of Sr, Co co-doped BFO nanoparticles for the application in various devices and degradation of hazardous organic dye.

Abstract
The magnetoelectric (ME) effect in composites, a strain mediated coupling phenomenon between
piezoelectric and magnetostrictive phases, has a wide range of technological applications. In this
article, the ME coupling phenomena are explored in Pb-free piezoelectric, 0.5Ba(Zr0.2Ti0.8)O3-
0.5(Ba0.7Ca0.3)TiO3 (BZT-BCT) and piezomagnetic NiFe2O4 bilayer laminate composites. The
direct and converse ME coupling strengths found to be enhanced at the electromechanical
resonance modes than the off-resonance frequencies. Here, it is proposed to further enhance the
ME coupling strength at electromechanical resonance modes by the in-phase superimposition of
the radial and second bending modes via varying the bilayer thickness, which in turn vary the
volume fraction of the bilayer. The proposed enhanced ME coupling is experimentally
demonstrated at theoretically envisaged bilayer thickness of ~ 1.8 mm. This results in a large direct
ME coupling coefficient of 22.5 , which is around 100% more than the values
observed at individual resonance modes. The results are further validated by the calculations from
the theoretical models. The method adopted in this work gives a roadmap to the significant
enhancement of ME effect in laminate composites. value

Abstract: Shape- and structure- directing ability of capping agents, namely, acetic acid and folic
acid (FA) has been analyzed in the synthesis of hollow plasmonic nanostructures via nanoscale
Kirkendall effect. FA was found to possess both the abilities as spherical solid Ag2O
nanoparticles (NPs) transformed into hollow silver nanocubes (HAgNCs). In contrast, acetic acid
(AA) acted as a structure-directing agent only as the transformation from solid Ag2O nanospheres
to hollow Ag nanospheres is observed. FA capping leads to enhanced plasmon tunability range
from 535-640 nm in the hollow silver nanostructures. The size and shape of nanostructures are
analyzed by high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM). HRTEM revealed that
the outer diameter of AA-capped HAgNSs is 50±10 nm while edge-length for FA-capped
HAgNCs is 100±15 nm. The diameter of inner void space was found to be 30±5 nm and 43±5
nm for the HAgNSs and HAgNCs, respectively. The phase purity of the hollow nanostructures
was confirmed by XRD and EDX measurements. Due to unique structural and plasmonic
features, FA-capped HAgNCs are well-suited for biomedical applications.

In this work, we have shown the application and grain size effect on the fundamental properties of the Rb substituted eco-friendly Na0.5Bi0.5TiO3 ferroelectric (Na0.5-xRbxBi0.5TiO3, where x=0, 1, 2, 3, 4 mol % and abbreviated as RB0, RB1, RB2, RB3, and RB4, respectively). By considering the practical implementation of the material, the recoverable energy storage densities of all compositions are analyzed. Simultaneously, to ensure the suitability of the compounds as an orthopedic implant, biocompatibility of all compositions is checked. The grain size is reduced with the substitution of Rb at the cation-site of the Na0.5Bi0.5TiO3. We have observed the variation in the interactions among the polar nano regions and decrement in the remanent polarization with the grain size refinement. This property helps to improve the recoverable energy storage density. This study also shows the development in the hardness property with the increment of the substitution. It is expected that the grain size plays a key role in the enhancement of the mechanical property. The excellent hardness of RB3 and RB4 (10.36 and 11.75 GPa, respectively) shows the pathway to use these materials as an orthopedic implant. To examine the biocompatibility of RB1, RB2, RB3, and RB4, the normal fibroblast cells were exposed to these compounds. The cells were seeded in a 6 well plate (1×105 cells/well) and were allowed to attach overnight. The non-toxic nature and good hardness of RB3 and RB4 exhibit the possibility to use these materials as an orthopedic implant. Being a piezoceramic, RB3 and RB4 have an advantage over a normal ceramic as an implant. Due to the piezoelectric property, the activity of the piezo-implant can be detected externally, so the anomaly of the implant can be diagnosed non-invasively. Usually, toxic lead based piezoelectric material is embedded in the normal ceramic implant to diagnose the activities of the implant. This process avoids the revision surgery. Due to having piezoelectric and hardness property, our examined eco-friendly materials can be used as a whole implant; no lead based ceramic is required to embed in it. Hence, RB3 has the potential to become a non-toxic alternate to the current existing toxic lead based piezoceramics implants.

Abstract The current research communities have been focused intensively toward alternative of lead
based functional materials due to its toxic in nature. Already some of the countries have initiated to restrict the use of lead based compounds. Therefore, research and development (R&D) on lead free compounds is growing significantly from last few years. Out of the several lead free compounds, Bismuth Sodium Titanate (Bi0.5Na0.5TiO3/BNT) is well known for its comparable dielectric, ferroelectric and piezoelectric properties with respect to lead zirconate titanate (PZT). It is because, the bismuth (Bi3+: 6s2) has lone pair electrons similar to Pb2+ which impacts greatly on the electrical properties of the perovskite compounds. To further improve the physical properties, BNT based solid solutions (binary as well as ternary) have been reported by the different research groups such as BNT-BaTiO3, BNT-Bi0.5K0.5TiO3, BNT-Ba0.7Sr0.3TiO3, BNT-K0.5N0.5NbO3, BNT-BTO-KNN, etc. As per the experimental results, BNT based solid solutions exhibit relaxor ferroelectric properties rather normal ferroelectric. Relaxor ferroelectrics show enhanced piezoelectric properties with high electrical energy storage density due to its pinched/constricted ferroelectric hysteresis loop. In the present work, effect of A-site nonstoichiometric in La3+ modified Bi0.5(Na0.80K0.20)0.5TiO3/BNKT solid solution on crystal structure and electrical properties have been investigated. Evolution of crystal structure from rhombohedral (R3c) to tetragonal (P4bm) symmetry with reduction of the lattice distortion has been observed. The Raman spectra analysis is well supported to the crystal structure study from the XRD patterns analysis. The presence of charge defects due to non-stoichiometric composition and the reduction of oxygen vacancies have been confirmed by the X-ray photoelectron spectra (XPS) of the respective elements. The FESEM (Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy) micrographs clearly show the reduction of grain size with the incorporation of La3+ in A-site of BNKT. The multiple dielectric anomalies near depolarization temperature (Td) & temperature at maximum dielectric value (Tm) in the temperature dependent dielectric curves ascribe the diffuse phase transition with relaxor ferroelectric nature. The dielectric anomalies at Td and Tm become more pronounce with the increase in addition of La3+ into BNKT lattice. The presence of charge defects with A-sites complexity leads to interrupt the long range polar ferroelectric domains and, forms the polar nanoregions (PNRs). The competition between ferroelectric R3c symmetry and non-polar P4bm symmetry with the addition of La3+ into the BNKT lattice induces an intermediate modulated phase, which exhibits the antiferroelectric in nature having pinched ferroelectric hysteresis loop and can be apply for energy storage applications. Keywords: Rietveld Refinement, Lattice distortion, Diffuse phase transition, Depolarization temperature and Polar nanoregions (PNRs).

(BTV), a member of Aurivillius family, has been fabricated by a mixed-oxide route at
high temperature. Room temperature structural analysis using X-ray diffraction data confirms the
crystallization of ceramic in the orthorhombic crystal structure. Surface morphological analysis
using field-emission scanning electron microscopic (FESEM) images and elemental study with
energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) reveal the uniform distribution of grains and
compositional elements of the prepared material, respectively. Based on the temperature and
frequency dependence of capacitive and resistive parameters, the electrical phenomena underlying
the sample are discussed. The contribution of grain and grain boundary towards the conduction
and relaxation mechanism is described by the complex impedance spectroscopy. The semi-
conducting property (negative temperature coefficient of resistance (NTCR)) behavior is observed
from the temperature dependent bulk resistance and J~E characteristics of the sample. The
frequency dependent ac conductivity of the system obeys the universal Jonscher’s power law with
conduction mechanism based on overlapping-large polaron tunneling model and correlated barrier
hopping model. Measurement of room temperature hysteresis loop confirms the existence of
ferroelectricity in the sample.

WhatsUp number: 918480899053 Abstract: Soft/hard magnetic bilayers are studied widely for its application in permanent magnets and thermally assisted recording devices. Other than this, the fundamental study of the bilayers is emerging now a days. In this context, we have studied the static dynamic magnetic properties of soft (Co)/ hard (Co40Fe40B20) magnetic bilayers. The effect of interfacial exchange coupling of the magnetic layers on hysteresis loops, domain imaging, anisotropy energy and Gilbert damping is studied in the Co/CoFeB bilayers. Modulation of magnetic domains are found by the direct exchange coupling. We have deposited the magnetic bilayers in parallel and perpendicular configuration in order to study the effect of interface on the magnetic properties. We observed the tuning of Gilbert damping constant, coercive field (HC) by this new deposition methodology. Uniaxial magnetic anisotropy is found in these samples which is due to oblique angle of deposition in case of our deposition system. Also, we deposited the magnetic layers of different thicknesses and alternate the order for tuning of magnetic properties. We found higher values of HC when CoFeB is at the bottom. Thus, the interfacial exchange coupling is more when CoFeB is deposited at the bottom. Combination of uniaxial and six-fold anisotropies is found in these samples. Tuning of magnetic domain images is observed by alternating the order of magnetic bilayers. We observed the enhancement of Gilbert damping constant when CoFeB is deposited at the bottom due to the enhancement of interfacial exchange coupling. Thus, interfacial exchange coupling affects a lot to the static and dynamic magnetic properties and we investigated new deposition methodologies which is good both for application and fundamental study.

number: +91 9062066209 Abstract Lightweight tactile sensor with multimodal capabilities such as, wearability, self-powered
operation, and mechanical robustness are of paramount importance in emerging portable
electronics that involves human–machine integration. In this effort, an all-fiber wearable
nanogenerator (NG) is designed, where, platinum (Pt) nano-particles (NPs) interfaced highly
aligned 1D ferroelectric poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) nano-fibers arrays (Pt-PVDF NFs) is
sandwiched between flexible conducting fabrics, consisting of interlocking micro-fibers arrays.
In-situ ternary synergistic enhancement of piezoelectricity in nano-dimensionally confined 1D Pt-
PVDF NFs arises from extensional force exertion on electrified solution jets, mechanical
stretching on rapid collection and Pt-NPs interfacing with macromolecular PVDF chain. As a
consequence, mechanically robust structure of Pt-PVDF NFs possess 5 times enhanced
piezoelectric figure of merit (FoMp ≈ 5×10−11 Pa−1) in comparison to pure PVDF nanofibers (FoMp
≈ 9.7×10−12 Pa−1). In addition, owing to the geometrical stress confinement effect, the Pt-PVDF
NFs based piezoelectric nanogenerator (PtPENG) is proven to be a high-performance (output
voltage, Voc~ 30 V and current, Isc~ 6 mA cm−2) and durable (~ 90,000 cycles) power generating
device (output power, 22 μW cm−2) for small power consumer electronics. Importantly, PtPENG
is demonstrated as a static strain-sensitive wearable tactile sensor without any bias electrical
power that paves the way to improve human personalized self-powered healthcare monitoring
system.

[email protected], +91-8876428180 Abstract — Rechargeable batteries based on largely earth abundant elements are generally regarded as one of the most promising candidates in achieving high energy/power and ultra-durable energy storage device. A recent example is the chloroaluminate electrolyte based Al-ion battery with graphene cathode. However, certain demerits of chloroaluminate electrolytes such as high reactivity to most of the metals, moisture sensitivity and high cost will be impediments for mass-scale production of Al-ion battery. Therefore, utilization of water based electrolyte in rechargeable Al battery is expected to mitigate these challenges. Herein, the working of a rechargeable aqueous aluminum-metal battery is demonstrated for the first time by electrochemically pairing metallic aluminum as anode with graphite as cathode. A discharge voltage of 1.8 V is obtained with an initial discharge capacity of 213 mAhg-1 at a current density of 0.5 Ag-1 over several cycles. The uniqueness of the outlined Al-graphite battery is that it takes the benefit of amazingly minimal effort assets and could be effectively amassed at ambient environment.

Abstract: Graphene is a 2d one atom thick layered material composed of sp2 hybridized carbon
atoms. It has evolved as a promising material for various applications viz., catalysis, energy,
environmental, automobile, electrical, biological, etc. owing to its tremendous thermal & electrical
conductivities, increased electron mobility, excellent young’s modulus, etc. The demand for
graphene has increased drastically from the date of its discovery. Hence, extracting graphene from
discharged dry cell battery electrodes could be a sustainable approach that serves two purposes at
a time i.e. waste management and environmental safety.
To put forward, the waste dry cell battery electrodes were collected and cleaned. The
electrochemical exfoliation (ECE) in acidic media was adopted for the synthesis. Two thoroughly
cleaned graphite electrodes were employed in the process. The obtained product at the end of the
process was graphene oxide (GO) with an 88% yield. Furthermore, the GO was subjected to a
thermal reduction treatment in an argon atmosphere at suitable temperature and time to achieve
reduced graphene oxide (rGO) i.e. graphene. The materials were thoroughly characterized at each
stage to understand the process and quality of graphene produced [1].

Abstract — Rapidly quenched Co and Fe based monolayer and their bilayer prepared through double nozzle technique have been characterized to investigate its microstructural and magnetic properties and their possibility as high temperature magnetocaloric material. The Co and Fe-based monolayer ribbons displayed Curie temperatures (TC) of 463 K and 700 K respectively. Magnetic entropy change ∆SM of the bilayer was measured at a low magnetizing field of 1 T in the temperature spans covering separately for TC of Co and Fe-based ribbons corresponding to separate entropy at low and high temperature regime. The ∆SM value at TC of Fe based ribbon displayed values in the span of 1.13 to 1.71 J.Kg-1K-1 in their monolayer and bilayer state. On incipient nanocrystallisation at 773 K, the ∆SM and refrigerant capacity (RC) around TC of cobalt based bilayer ribbon, revealed comparable values as in their as-quenched state. However, nanocrystallisation elevated the ∆SM of bilayer across TC of the Fe-based regime to a high value close to 4.6 J.Kg-1K-1 with a fairly elevated RC of 96 J.Kg-1. The enhanced ∆SM associated with the formation of Fe-based nanocrystallites is evidenced through transmission electron microscopy. The inter-diffusion of ferromagnetic elements Fe, Co is also supposed to elevate the ∆SM as well as the RC of the glassy system in the bilayer ribbons.

Email: a*[email protected] ; [email protected] Mob: +91-8765476361 Abstract — Ruddlesden Popper (RP) oxide materials were firstly studied by S. N. Ruddlesden and P Popper and expressed by general chemical formula An+1BnO3n+1. Among studied RP oxides, the alkaline earth based stannates (M2SnO4, M: Ca, Sr, Ba) drawing the more attention of researchers towards phosphor and display devices application. The advantage of these phases over the well-discussed perovskites is that it exhibited in both oxygen-deficient and oxygen efficient. The properties of these RP phases were strongly dependent on the concentration Sn2+/Sn4+ and oxygen stoichiometry, playing a crucial role to enhanced the electrical, optical, and magnetic properties. Based on different kinds of doping such as Ba2+ at Sr2+, Nd3+ at Sr2+, and Eu3+ at Sn4+; sites of Sr2SnO4, the Sr2SnO4 has been projected as a potential candidate for thermally stable capacitor, dilute magnetic semiconductor, display device applications. Study of the properties of these materials is not only for the materials development but also to understand the basic solid-state physics and materials science. All the properties of doped RP oxides were described in terms of charge compensation mechanism. Therefore, we could say the Sr2SnO4 as a functional material and with a dilute amount doping the properties will be drastically modified for dielectric capacitor, dilute magnetic semiconductor, and optical device applications.

Abstract Ni1-xZnxO nanoparticles were synthesized by wet-chemical route. XRD characterization of
these samples indicated that Zn doping in NiO induced neither structural phase transformation nor
any secondary phase. Rietveld refinement of XRD data indicated that the lattice parameter of NiO
increases with increasing of Zn doping concentration. TEM analysis confirms the reduction of
agglomeration and shape transformation from irregular to almost spherical shape up on Zn doping
in NiO. Raman study combined with photoluminescence study suggested that these materials
could be useful for optical applications. Magnetic characterization of Ni1-xZnxO samples indicates
that all samples show weak ferromagnetism at room temperature with the persistence of
unsaturation behaviour even up to very high magnetic field. Our study indicated that our
synthesized samples could be useful for UV emission device, magnetic random access memory
and data storage applications.

Email; [email protected], whatsapp no. +918012945004 Abstract In contrast with the conventional ceramic/oxide humidity sensors (HS), a self-powered piezoelectric biopolymer (SP-PB)-HS with reasonable sensitivity, reliability, non-toxic, and eco-friendly nature is highly desirable. A piezoelectric nanogenerator (PNG) driven biopolymer based HS provides a pathway towards a sustainable and greener environment in the field of smart sensors. For that, a piezoelectric collagen-nanofibrils (PCNF) biopolymer coated on to a cotton fabric has dual functionality (energy harvesting and sensor). Collagen PNG (CPNG) generates a maximum of 45 V/250 nA upon 5 N and can also work as a sensor to measure various percentages of relative humidity (% RH). HS shows a linear response with a good sensitivity (0.1287 A/ % RH) in the range of 50-90 % RH. These results open a field of eco-friendly multifunctional nanomaterials towards the development of non-invasive, implantable smart bio-medical systems.

E-mail: [email protected] Abstract — Mixed-valence manganites were widely studied due to their interesting electronic and magnetic properties [1]. These materials can be used in electronic switches, sensors, and memory devices for their colossal magnetoresistance properties, as cathode in Solid Oxide Fuel Cells, and as catalysts in the visible-light-driven photocatalysis [1]. The effect of hole doping on structural, optical, magnetic, and electrical properties of NdMn0.5Fe0·5O3-δ has been investigated in air. The citrate-nitrate combustion technique was used to synthesize the oxides. Rietveld refinement of XRD patterns of the samples demonstrate that NdMn0.5Fe0.5O3−δ and Nd0.75Ba0.25Mn0.5Fe0.5O3−δ are orthorhombic while Nd0.75Ca0.25Mn0.5Fe0.5O3−δ and Nd0.75Sr0.25Mn0.5Fe0.5O3−δ are monoclinic. The unit cell volume is decreased with the decreasing the size of A-dopant in Nd1-xAxMn0.5Fe0·5O3-
δ. The absorption decreases for the A-site doped samples confirmed form UV–vis absorption spectra. The estimated two optical band-gap energy (Eg) values corresponding to the charge transfer involving iron cations (higher Eg) and the charge transfer via manganese cations (lower Eg) respectively. The significant irreversibility between the zero-field cooled and field-cooled data was observed below Néel temperature (TN) while partial substitution of Nd by alkaline earth metals decreases the TN. The field-dependent magnetization at 3 K indicates antiferromagnetic ordering with a spin canting. The temperature dependent resistivity (T = Tp < TN) indicate the transformation of metallic to semiconductor conduction with increasing temperature while Tp temperature significantly decreases with doping. The introduction of alkaline earth metals in Nd1-
xAxMn0.5Fe0·5O3-δ noticeably reduces the resistivity in the semiconducting region. The small polaron hopping mechanism of conduction is suggested at T > TN. Within the range of Tp < T < TN, the resistivity data are interpreted by the variable range hopping mechanism. A significant value of magnetoresistance ( 44%) was observed only for Nd0.75Sr0·25Mn0·5Fe0·5O3-δ at 120 K. Keywords — Manganite, Optical, Magnetic, Resistivity References

Abstract — In this work, methyl ammonium lead iodide (CH3NH3PbI3) thin films were deposited using spin-coating method. The thin films were investigated as a function of different thermal annealing temperatures with time being constant and as a function of time with constant temperature. The compositional and structural analyses have been studied by EDXRF and XRD respectively. The optical and chemical properties were also studied using UV-Vis spectrophotometer and FTIR spectroscopy. The characterization result shows the change in its properties with increase in temperature and time. From the XRD data, it can be observed that with an increase in temperature, the CH3NH3PbI3 decomposes to PbI2, and with an increase in annealing time, the CH3NH3PbI3 peaks show degradation. A basic comparison has been made in order to study the effect of annealing on the CH3NH3PbI3 thin films.

Abstract — The addition of filler material proved to improve the stiffness of the natural fiber reinforced polymer composite materials (NFRPC). Most filler are used as primary or secondary reinforcement material in making polymer composites. Most important quality the filler must possess is high strength so as to enhance the mechanical, thermal, electrical and tribological behaviour of the polymer composites. Most commonly used fillers include ceramics and glasses such as small mineral particles, metal particles such as aluminium and amorphous materials, including polymers and carbon black. Fillers are used to increase the modulus of the matrix and to decrease the ductility of the matrix. Fillers are also used to reduce the cost of the composites. One such type of innovative filler to be used as potential ones in NFRPC making is the Biochar. Biochar is a charcoal used normally as a soil amendment in agriculture because of its firm and rich carbon content. Because of its rich carbon content, it will be a decent contender as alternate for expensive and higher environment influencing carbon fillers. By using biochar as a filler material, wastes can be renewed into a value-added merchandise of biochar whose application in polymeric composites makes them robust, good fire-resistant, cheaper, and can instantaneously endorse sustainability. Therefore, biochar being inexpensive, renewable, and having attractive physical properties rightly fits into the pattern for new industrial, economic, and social development where it can be used to both mitigate wastes and produce novel and better composite products. The advantages offered by this biochar are reusage of wastes, high load bearing capacity, increase in stiffness, resilience, brittle nature to ductile. This biochar has the potential to be used along with various fibers to produce the composites with excellent performance.

Abstract —Water poisoning due to organic pollutants is befitting a devastating interest right through the world, and how to get freed of these organic pollutants from the water remains a problematic matter for environmental chemists. Keeping this in mind, one-dimensional cobalt(II)-based coordination polymer (Co-CP) was synthesized applying solvothermal condition. On the basis of single-crystal X-ray diffraction and elemental analysis the exact structure of synthesized polymer was elucidated. Additionally, Co-CP has been characterized by magnetic study, FTIR, UV- Visible, PXRD, and TGA analysis. FTIR spectra ascertain the bonding modes of primary and auxiliary ligand. The SEM study reveals the outer morphology of the Co-CP. The Co-CP was employed for its material importance through its magnetic study and photodegradation property. Magnetic information about the Co-CP unveils the existence of the strong antiferromagnetic nature coupled with anisotropy in the system (C = 2.71 cm3 K mol-1 and θ = -6.43 K). Furthermore, the Co-CP itself has been effectively used as a photocatalyst for the degradation of organic pollutants like Methylene blue (MB) and Rhodamine-B (Rh-B) in the waste water. The Co-CP manifested unusual photocatalytic activity toward the decolorization of the organic dyes. Based on scavenging investigation, a mechanism for the excellent photocatalytic activity has been suggested. Moreover, Co-CP has the benefits of excellent catalytic activity and recyclability towards organic pollutants.

Abstract - It uses the fundamental mechanism of actuator technology being supported by shape memory alloy. The creation of high security locking involves the fabrication of a high strength actuator which can withstand long cycles of heating and cooling. Testing of efficiency is done by using the one way and two shape memory alloy property which involves single as well as multiple actuators. It also compares various modes of actuation using electricity or by thermal heating. The comparison of the entire module with different types of design is conveyed with a best fit model. The main advantage of this technology is to create a step forward in the security system providing an advanced mode of protection in various sophisticated industries. In sort the entire comparison is done in three parameters, firstly various types of shape memory alloys are taken into account and one with the lowest hysteresis cycle is being considered fit for the application. Secondly, the deduction of optimum temperature to prevent overheating and abnormal cooling. The temperature plays a crucial role in the entire actuation and further efficiency is relatable to the correct temperature determination. Lastly, the modeling of the entire setup is done in CAD software and the best fit model is determined depending on the condition and mode of operation. This comparison accurately points out challenges and future requirement of materials which can be developed to further increase efficiency.

Department of physics,KIIT University [email protected]
Abstract
Advanced energy storage systems are in urgent demand to satisfy the requirements of fast- growing electrical vehicle applications. The challenge in this realm is to design cost effective catalyst with enhanced functionalities for advance energy storage and conversion. We have designed MoO3 layers on NiCo2S4 surface by hydrothermal process. MoO3 forms flexible protective layers on conductive core material (NiCo2S4). The final material MoO3@NiCo2S4 is obtained in the form
of nanospheres which show high specific capacitance of 1600 F g−1 at 2 A g−1 and a good capacitance retention of 91% after 3000 cycles. This is a novel strategy to design materials for supercapacitor electrodes. The charge storage activity of MoO3@NiCo2S4 is attributed to its high surface area and electrical conductivity, which provides a broad ion diffusion pathway, low charge-transfer resistance, and robust structure at high current density for long-time cycling.

Abstract —This work reports the hybridization of patronite (VS4) sheets with reduced graphene oxide and functionalized carbon nanotubes (RGO/FCNT/VS4) through a simple hydrothermal approach. The synergistic effect imparted by the individual components, i.e., RGO, FCNT, and VS4, significantly improves the efficiency of the ternary (RGO/FCNT/VS4) composite towards the oxygen evolution reaction. The ternary composite needs only 330 mV of overpotential to
deliver the state-of-art current density of 10 mA/cm2 and yields an appreciable lower Tafel slope. Furthermore, the higher electrochemical accessible surface area and the presence of large number of active sites make the composite catalytically more active. Besides, the ternary composite exhibits excellent stability and high faradic efficiency (~96.38%) at an overpotential of 330 mV. These experimental findings are further corroborated by the state-of-the-art density functional theory by presenting adsorption configurations, the density of states, and the overpotential of these hybrid structures. Interestingly, the theoretical overpotential follows the qualitative trend of RGO/FCNT/VS4 < FCNT/VS4 < RGO/VS4, which is in good agreement with our experimental observations.
