Abstract Here, we report functionalized graphene quantum dots (GQDs) for the optical detection of arsenic at room temperature. GQDs with the fluorescence of three fundamental colors (red, green, and blue) were synthesized and functionally capped with L-cysteine (L-cys) to impart selectively towards As (III) by exploiting the affinity of L-cys towards arsenite. The optical characterization of GQDs was carried out using UV-Vis absorption spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and fluorescence spectrometry and the structural characterizations were performed using transmission electron microscopy. The fluorescence results showed instantaneous quenching in intensity when the GQDs came in contact with As (III) for all test concentrations over a range from 0.025 ppb to 25 ppb, which covers the permissible limit of arsenic in drinking water. The experimental results suggested excellent sensitivity and selectivity towards As (III).

Abstract In this study, the Cu-23.37%Zn-13.73%Al-2.92%Mn (at.%) alloy was used. Phase identification was performed with the Scanning electron microscope (SEM), and energy-dispersive X-ray (EDX). We observed in the austenite phase in Cu-23.37%Zn-13.73%Al-2.92%Mn (at.%) alloy. To produce a new Schottky diode, CuZnAlMn alloy was exploited as a Schottky contact on p-type semiconductor silicon substrate. To calculate the characteristics of the produced diode, current-voltage (I-V), capacitance-voltage (C-V) and conductance-voltage (G-V) analyzes were taken at room temperature (300 K), in the dark and under various lights. Using electrical measurements, the diode's ideality factor (n), barrier height (Φb), and other diode parameters were calculated. Besides, the conductance / capacitance-voltage (G/C-V) characteristics of the diode were studied and in a wide frequency interval at room temperature. Also, the capacitance and conductance values strongly ​​ rely on the frequency. From the present experimental results, the obtained diode can be used for optoelectronic devices.

Rapid breakdown anodization (RBA) process was used to fabricate TiO2 sensor to measure pressure and humidity and sense gases at room temperature. This chemical process transformed Ti to its oxide (TiO2) as a powder with amorphous phase as X ray diffraction (XRD) technique confirmed.  This oxide consisted from semi spherical nanoparticles and titania nanotubes (TNTs) as Scanning electron microscope (SEM) technique showed.  TiO2 powder was deposited on Ti substrates by using electrophoretic deposition (EPD) method.   Average pressure sensitivity was 0.34 MΩ/bar and hysteresis area was 1.4 MΩ .bar. Resistance of TiO2 decreased exponentially with the increasing of relative humidity (RH%). The sensitivity% of TiO2 for RH% was greater than 70% in the range of (50-95). TiO2 was tested as a sensor for Ammonia, Ethanol and Methanol. Its sensitivity and selectivity towards Ammonia were the greatest but the shortest response and recovery times were recorded toward Methanol.
