Structure, morphology and photoluminescence emissions of ZnMoO4: RE 3+=Tb3+ - Tm3+ - X Eu3+ (x = 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5 and 3 mol%) particles obtained by the sonochemical method 10.1016/j.jallcom.2018.03.394 2018-03-30 ZnMoO4 and ZnMoO4: RE3+ = 1% Tb3+, 1% Tm3+, x Eu3+ (x = 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5 and 3 mol%) particles were prepared by a sonochemical method. The influence of the dopant content on photoluminescent behavior was investigated. The X-ray diffraction results confirmed the...
Evaluation of the effect that the substitution of the ion MA by the ion Cs produces on the properties of thin films of CsxMA1-xPbI3 prepared by spin-coating 10.1016/j.jallcom.2018.03.385 2018-03-30 In this paper we report results concerning the effect that the substitution of the ion methylamonium (MA) by the ion cesium causes on the properties of the hybrid compound CsxMA1-xPbI3, synthesized by spin coating. It was found that this substitution occurs e...
Preparation and comparative evolution of mechanical behavior of Fe and Fe2O3 foams and their polymer composites 10.1016/j.jallcom.2018.03.389 2018-03-30 The open cell foams with reticulated structure are cellular materials which is gaining interest in the recent past not only because of scientific interest but also because of their technological importance.

Direct band gap narrowing and light-harvesting-potential in orthorhombic In-doped-AlFeO3 perovskite: A first principles study 10.1016/j.jallcom.2018.03.388 2018-03-30 Enhancing the structural stability of AlFeO3 is relevant since one of the primary reasons for its lack of engineering appeal lies in the fact that the system shows polytypism. This means that the system would have structural transitions in operation. Hence en...
High energy-storage performance of BNT-BT-NN ferroelectric thin films prepared by RF magnetron sputtering 10.1016/j.jallcom.2018.03.383 2018-03-30 Dielectric materials with high energy-storage density and efficiency have great potential applications in modern electric and electronic devices.
