Efficient Photocatalytic Degradation of Crystal Violet Dye Using a Synthesized CdO:V2O5 Nanocomposite in the Presence of Sunlight

Sajid M. Mansoori

New Environmentally-Friendly Materials · 23-34 · 10.55121/nefm.v4i1.413

Materials containing two or more separate phases, at least one of which has nanoscale dimensions, are called nano composites. Coupled semiconductor metal oxides have drawn a lot of interest among these because of their special and improved physicochemical characteristics. These characteristics frequently result from changes in t

Discovery of Structural Elements that Form Amorphous Materials

Olexandr Kucherov, Alexandr D. Rud

New Environmentally-Friendly Materials · 48-56 · 10.55121/nefm.v4i1.400

One of the important and unresolved problems of materials science is the structure of amorphous solids. This paper reveals the secret of the structure of amorphous materials through picoscopic visualization of electron orbitals. Picoscopy is a precision experimental method for measuring the thickness of a real electron orbital b

A Novel Approach to Fabricate a Polyamide-Copper TENG in Vertical Contact-Separation Mode

Hitesh Kumar Sharma, Atul Kumar Sharma, Vijay Janyani, Dharmendra Boolchandani

New Environmentally-Friendly Materials · 57-66 · 10.55121/nefm.v4i1.411

In this study, a novel design concept for a contact-separation Triboelectric Nanogenerator (TENG) utilizing polyimide (PI) film and copper (Cu) tape is presented. The innovation lies in enhancing the surface area and roughness of the PI film using 1000-grit sandpaper, which is manually rubbed over the film. This surface treatmen

Resonance Transitions in the Cylindrical Barrier as Related Carbon Nanotube States

Yury. I. Bokhan

New Environmentally-Friendly Materials · 67-73 · 10.55121/nefm.v4i1.388

The solution of the Schrödinger equation in a cylindrical coordinate system is considered. The carbon nanotube is modeled by a cylindrical tunnel barrier with periodic boundary conditions. An expression is obtained for the charge current depending on the radius and length of the nanotube. Shown that the current vector has a radi
