Abstract This study is part of the work on the creation of a transparent conductive coating based on oriented nanonetwork and submicron nickel fibres. It is devoted to finding the optimal values of electrical conductivity and optical transparency of the developed coating. In this work, we study the transmission spectra of oriented nickel networks on a glass substrate in the UV, visible and near-IR regions at different amounts of deposited metal. An exciting feature of the coating was discovered: in the range of 950 nm and above, there is a "bend" of the transmission spectrum downward. This bend (increased absorption of radiation in the near-IR region) is observed only in the presence of nickel nanonetwork and is not typical for a pure submicron network.

AbstractWasp-31b is a planet of 0.48 Jupiter masses and 1.55 Jupiter radii, with orbital period of 3.4-days around a metal-poor, late-F-type, V = 11.7 dwarf star. The planet has a large atmospheric scale height that makes it a good target for transmission spectroscopy. Sing et al (2014) presented an optical and near-IR transmission spectrum of the atmosphere of WASP-31b obtained with the HST and show the presence of a strong potassium line. In contrast, Gibson et al. (2017) reports a spectrum of the atmosphere of WASP-31b, obtained with the FORS2 instrument on the VLT and find that there is no strong potassium line. Here, we take those two datasets and, using models, we try to find a case where both solutions are correct by considering different cloud scenarios.

Abstract The paper investigates the optical transparency dependence of a coating based on an oriented network of platinum nanowires on the amount of metal used. Oriented platinum nanowires on a glass surface are produced by chemical deposition from an aqueous hexachloroplatinic acid solution. The topography of the deposited metal layer on glass is visualized using atomic force microscopy. Optical transparency was investigated with a spectrophotometer. In almost the entire region of optical radiation, the transparency is approximately 98%. The absorption spectrum shows that the absorption coefficient increases sharply in the near UV region.

Forsterite single phase powder Mg2SiO4 was synthesized by sol–gel method alongside with heat treatment, using two different cation alkaline salts MCl as mineralizers (M = Na, K) with various mass percentages (2.5, 5, 7.5, and 10 wt.%). In this work, we report on the effect of the cation type and the added amount of used mineralizer on microstructure and electrical conductivity of Mg2SiO4. The formation of forsterite started at 680–740  °C and at 630–700  °C with KCl and NaCl respectively, as shown by TG-DTA and confirmed by XRD. Furthermore, the Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) transmission spectra indicated bands corresponding to vibrations of forsterite structure. The morphology and elemental composition of sintered ceramics were examined by SEM-EDX analyses, while their densities, which were measured by Archimedes method, increased with addition of both alkaline salts. The electrical measurements were performed by Complex Impedance Spectroscopy. The results showed that electrical conductivity increased with the addition of both mineralizers, which was higher for samples prepared with NaCl than those prepared with KCl.

CdHgTe thin films were grown onto glass substrate via the Chemical bath deposition technique. XRD results indicate that a CdHgTe formed with a cubic polycrystalline structure. The crystallinity of CdHgTe thin films is gradually deteriorate with increasing the gamma irradiation. EDS spectrums confirms the presence of Cd, Hg and Te elements. DC electrical conductivity results depicted the conductivity of CdHgTe increase with increasing a gamma ray dosage

The superiority of nanofluid over conventional working fluid has been well researched and proven. Newest on the horizon is the hybrid nanofluid currently being examined due to its improved thermal properties. This paper examined the viscosity and electrical conductivity of deionized water (DIW)-based multiwalled carbon nanotube (MWCNT)-Fe2O3 (20:80) nanofluids at temperatures and volume concentrations ranging from 15 °C to 55 °C and 0.1–1.5%, respectively. The morphology of the suspended hybrid nanofluids was characterized using a transmission electron microscope, and the stability was monitored using visual inspection, UV–visible, and viscosity-checking techniques. With the aid of a viscometer and electrical conductivity meter, the viscosity and electrical conductivity of the hybrid nanofluids were determined, respectively. The MWCNT-Fe2O3/DIW nanofluids were found to be stable and well suspended. Both the electrical conductivity and viscosity of the hybrid nanofluids were augmented with respect to increasing volume concentration. In contrast, the temperature rise was noticed to diminish the viscosity of the nanofluids, but it enhanced electrical conductivity. Maximum increments of 35.7% and 1676.4% were obtained for the viscosity and electrical conductivity of the hybrid nanofluids, respectively, when compared with the base fluid. The obtained results were observed to agree with previous studies in the literature. After fitting the obtained experimental data, high accuracy was achieved with the formulated correlations for estimating the electrical conductivity and viscosity. The examined hybrid nanofluid was noticed to possess a lesser viscosity in comparison with the mono-particle nanofluid of Fe2O3/water, which was good for engineering applications as the pumping power would be reduced.

Native fluorescence, or autofluorescence (AF), consists in the emission of light in the UV-visible, near-IR spectral range when biological substrates are excited with light at suitable wavelength. This is a well-known phenomenon, and the strict relationship of many endogenous fluorophores with morphofunctional properties of the living systems, influencing their AF emission features, offers an extremely powerful resource for directly monitoring the biological substrate condition. Starting from the last century, the technological progresses in microscopy and spectrofluorometry were convoying attention of the scientific community to this phenomenon. In the future, the interest in the autofluorescence will certainly continue. Current instrumentation and analytical procedures will likely be overcome by the unceasing progress in new devices for AF detection and data interpretation, while a progress is expected in the search and characterization of endogenous fluorophores and their roles as intrinsic biomarkers.

Key assets for transparent electric contacts in optoelectronic applications are high conductivity and large transparency over extended spectral range. Indium-Tin-Oxide and Aluminium-doped-Zinc-oxide are commercial examples, with their electrical conductivity resembling those of metals, despite, their transparency being limited up to 1.5µm. This work introduces smooth and compact amorphous thin films of n-type semiconducting WO3-x prepared by RF-sputtering followed by annealing in dry air, as optical layers of tailorable dielectric properties. We evaluate Figure of Merit, combining electrical conductivity and optical transparency, and rate the performances as a transparent conductive layer.

The paper presents the results of studying the spectra of thermally stimulated depolarization of high-pressure polyethylene modified with fillers of biocomposites with fillers of biological origin - fish bone and fish scales. It was revealed that the stability and surface density of space charges can be controlled by varying the volumetric content of biological fillers. The optimal values of bio-fillers that contribute to the stability of the surface density of the studied biocomposites have been determined.
