We report the controlled synthesis of dumbbell shaped ZnO micro/nanostructures using anionic surfactant sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS) by simple one-step hydrothermal method. The morphology changes of ZnO were characterized by using scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, and energy dispersive spectroscopy. It is found that the size of the dumbbell increased with increase in concentration of SDS. Systematic growth mechanism with increase of concentration of SDS polymer is studied. Our results will help in the growing face selective ZnO for many functional applications.

Hairball-like bismuth trisulphide microcrystallines has been successfully prepared via one step solvothermal process and characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) techniques. The morphologies of the Bi2S3 microcrystallines were influenced by reaction time, temperature, the mole ratio of the reactants and concentration of starting materials, and the growth process has been proposed. The electrochemical behavior of Bi2S3 was investigated using the cyclic voltammetry.

A one-step carbon thermal method was used to prepare LiFePO4/C particles by using normal Fe2O3, LiH2PO4and sucrose as raw materials. The effect of H2content in the sintering atmosphere of N2on the morphology and the electrochemical performance were investigated. LiFePO4/C materials were characterized by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy and the elemental analyzer. The results show that the precursor sintering under the atmosphere of 8%H2+N2exhibits the highest electrochemical capacity (162.3 mAh/g at 0.1C) .

AbstractThe evolution of sulfide morphology in the Fe- (0.3 to 18) mass% Cr -0.3 mass% S alloys during solidification and its modification by additions of elements such as Mn, Ti, Zr and C have been investigated by means of optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction. The sulfide morphologies in the Fe-Cr-S ternary alloy are classified under three types: (i) cellwall (ii) fine particle and (iii) globular sulfides. The iron-rich cellwall sulfide is formed in the Fe-(0.3-1) %Cr-0.3 %S alloys. This sulfide morphology changes to the globular type with increasing Cr content and the size of that is more than 51gm. Fine sulfide particles of size smaller than 2 gtm also coexist in the Fe-(0.3-5) %Cr-0.3 %S alloys. Zr or Ti additions change this morphology from the globular type to the rod-like type in the Fe-18 %Cr-0.3 %S alloy, but Mn addition does not have the same effect. The mechanism of the formation of different sulfide morphologies is discussed on the basis of phase diagram information.

LaPO4nanorods have been selectively synthesized via a hydrothermal route, using La (NO3)3·6H2O and NaH2PO4as raw materials, without using any catalyst or template. X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), IR spectra (IR) and photo-luminescence (PL) spectra were used to characterize the as-prepared samples. The morphological changes of the products due to the different mole ratios of La (NO3)3·6H2O and NaH2PO4were studied. The effect of the thermal treatment on the structure of the LaPO4nanorods was also investigated. In addition, the emission intensity of LaPO4nanorods with different Eu doped concentration was compared and discussed.

This paper describes a one-step hydrothermal synthesis of rod-shaped HgTe nanocrystals (NCs). X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), field scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), transition electron microscopy (TEM) and energy-dispersive X-ray analysis (EDX) have been used to characterize the HgTe NCs. The length, diameter, surface roughness and the aspect ratio of the HgTe nanorods are well controlled through Te precursor, reaction time and reductant.

Mn2+, Co2+, or Ni2+monodoped CdS (or ZnS) and Mn2+-Co2+-Ni2+tridoped CdS (or ZnS) have been successfully synthesized by novel one-step thermolysis method using thiourea as a sulphur source. The synthesized nanomaterials were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). It is found that the average diameter and morphology of the synthesized samples varied with the nature of dopant ion. The successful doping of Mn2+-Co2+-Ni2+tridoped ions into the host CdS (or ZnS) was proved by the EDX spectra. The luminescence of CdS is only enhanced when monodoped with Mn2+whereas it is enhanced when ZnS is either monodoped with Mn2+, Co2+, or Ni2+or tridoped with Mn2+-Co2+-Ni2+. The synthesized samples could therefore offer opportunities for further fundamental research and technological applications.

Calcium is an important element in the growth and development of plants and one form of calcium is calcium oxalate. Calcium oxalate has been found in leaf seed, stem material plant tissue culture, fungi and lichen using one or more of the following methods—polarized light microscopy (PLM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and x-ray diffraction.Two methods are presented here for qualitatively estimating calcium oxalate in dried or fixed tobacco (Nicotiana) leaf from different stalk positions using PLM. SEM, coupled with energy dispersive x-ray spectrometry (EDS), and powder x-ray diffraction were used to verify that the crystals observed in the dried leaf with PLM were calcium oxalate.

Gallstones contain precipitated cholesterol, calcium salts, and proteins. Calcium (Ca) bilirubinate, palmitate, phosphate, and carbonate occurring in gallstones have variable morphologies but characteristic windowless energy dispersive x-ray (EDX) spectra. Previous studies of gallstone microstructure and composition using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) with EDX have been limited to dehydrated samples. In this state, Ca bilirubinates appear as either glassy masses, which predominate in black pigment stones, or as clusters, which are found mostly in cholesterol gallstones. The three polymorphs of Ca carbonate, calcite, vaterite, and aragonite, have been identified in gallstones by x-ray diffraction, however; the morphologies of these crystals vary in the literature. The purpose of this experiment was to study fresh gallstones by environmental SEM (ESEM) to determine if dehydration affects gallstone Ca salt morphology.Gallstones and bile were obtained fresh at cholecystectomy from 6 patients. To prevent dehydration, stones were stored in bile at 37°C. All samples were studied within 4 days of procurement.

Sebuah penelitian tentang sistem dispersi padat dari asiklovir dengan poloxamer 188 telah dilakukan formulasi dengan pencampuran secara fisika dengan rasio 1 : 1, 1 : 3, 1 : 5 dan dispersi padat 1 : 1, 1 : 3, 1 : 5 dan penggilingan 1:1 sebagai pembanding. Dispersi padat dibuat menggunakan metode pencairan (fusi), yang digabung dengan poloxamer 188 pada hotplate kemudian asiklovir dimasukkan ke dalam hasil poloxamer 188 lalu di kocok hingga membentuk masa homogen. Semua formula yang terbentuk termasuk asiklovir poloxamer 188 murni dianalisis karakterisasinya dengan Differential Thermal Analysis (DTA), X-ray Diffraction, Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), dan Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR), kemudian pengambilan dilakukan  (penentuan kadar) mengunakan spektrofotometer UV pada panjang gelombang 257,08 nm dan uji laju disolusi dengan aquadest bebas CO2 menggunakan metode dayung. Hasil pengambilan  (penentuan kadar) menunjukkan bahwa semua formula memenuhi persyaratan farmakope Amerika edisi 30 dan farmakope Indonesia edisi 4 yaitu 95-110%. Sedangkan hasil uji laju disolusi untuk campuran fisik 1: 1, dan dispersi padat 1: 1, dan penggilingan 1: 1 menunjukkan peningkatan yang nyata dibandingkan asiklovir murni. Hal ini juga dapat dilihat dari hasil perhitungan statistik  menggunakan analisis varian satu arah  SPSS 17.
