To synthesize $Gd_{2}O_{3}:Eu$ phosphor powder of nano size and high luminescence efficiency under UV (ultraviolet) and VUV (vacuum ultraviolet) light, organic additives such as citric acid and ethylene glycol and $Na_{2}CO_{3}$ flux were introduced in large-scale spray pyrolysis and critical conditions for forming nano-sized particles were investigated. The $Gd_{2}O_{3}:Eu$ phosphor particles prepared from solutions with organic additives such as citric acid and ethylene glycol had micron size and spherical shape. However, the particles prepared from polymeric precursor solution with $Na_{2}CO_{3}$ flux had nano size and non-aggregation characteristics. The as-prepared spherical particles with micron size turned into nano-sized particles during post-treatment by recrystallization process. The nano-sized $Gd_{2}O_{3}:Eu$ phosphor particles showed higher brightness than the commercial $Y_2O_3:Eu$ phosphor product under both UV light of 254nm and VUV light of 147 nm.

In this work, ZnO shell on mesoporous $SiO_2$ ($ZnO/SiO_2$) was prepared by atomic layer deposition (ALD). Diethylzinc (DEZ) and $H_2O$ were used as precursor of ZnO shell. $ZnO/SiO_2$ sample was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), N2 sorption isotherms, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR). $ZnO/SiO_2$ showed higher adsorption capacity of MB than that of bare mesoporous $SiO_2$ and the adsorption capacities of $ZnO/SiO_2$ could be regenerated by UV exposure through the photocatalytic degradation of the adsorbed MB. This system could be used for removing organic dye from water by adsorption and reused after saturation of adsorption due to its photocatalytic regeneration.

The growth of $Bi_2Te_3$ thin films on (001) GaAs substrates by metal organic chemical vapour deposition (MOCVD) is discussed in this paper. The results of surface morphology, electrical and thermoelectrical properties as a function of growth parameters are given. The surface morphologies of $Bi_2Te_3$ films were strong1y dependent on the deposition temperatures. Surface morphologies varied from step-flow growth mode to island coalescence structures depending on deposition temperature. In-plane carrier concentration and electrical Hall mobility were highly dependent on precursor's ratio of Te/Bi and deposition temperature. The high Seebeck coefficient (of $-160{\mu}VK^{-1}$) and good surface morphology of our result is promising for $Bi_2Te_3$ based thermoelectric thin film and two dimensional supperlattice device applications.

Graphene oxide (GO) has been of particular interest because it provides unique properties due to its high surface area, chemical functionality and ease of mass production. GO is produced by chemical exfoliation of graphite and is decorated with oxygen-containing groups such as phenol hydroxyl, epoxide groups and ionizable carboxylic acid groups. Due to the presence of those functional groups, GO can be utilized as a novel platform for hybrid nanocomposites in chemical synthetic approaches. In this work, GO-$SnO_2$ nanocomposites have been prepared through the spontaneous formation of molecular hybrids. When $SnO_2$ precursor solution and GO suspension were simply mixed, $Sn^{2+}$ was spontaneously formed into $SnO_2$ nanoparticles upon the deoxygenation of GO. Through further chemical reduction by adding hydrazine, reduced GO-$SnO_2$ hybrid was finally created. Our investigation for the electrocapacitive properties of hybrid electrode showed the enhanced performance (389 F/g), compared with rGO-only electrode (241 F/g). Our approach offers a scalable, robust synthetic route to prepare graphene-based nanocomposites for supercapacitor electrode via spontaneous hybridization.

An efficient nucleophilic [$^{18}F$]fluorination has been studied to reduce byproducts and preparation time. Instead of conventional aqueous solution of $K_2CO_3-K_{222}$, several organic solution containing inert organic salts were used to release [$^{18}F$]fluoride ion and anion bases captured in the polymer cartridge, concluding that methanol solution is the best choice. Comparing to azeotropic drying process, one min was sufficient to remove methanol completely, resulting in about 10% radioactivity saving by reducing drying time. The polymer cartridge, Chromafix$^{(R)}$ (PS-$HCO_3$) was pretreated with several anion bases to displace pre-loaded bicarbonate base. Phosphate bases showed better results than carbonate bases in terms of lower basicity. tert-Butanol solvent used as a reaction media played another critical role in nucleophilic [18F]fluorination by suppressing eliminated side product. Consequent [$^{18}F$]fluorination under the present condition afforded fast preparation of reaction solution and high radiochemical yields (98% radio-TLC, 84% RCY) with 94% of precursor remained.

In this review article, we focus on various co-evaporation technologies developed for the fabrication of high performance $REBa_2Cu_3O_{7-{\delta}}$ (RE: Y and Rare earth elements, REBCO) superconducting films. Compared with other manufacturing technologies for REBCO films such as sputtering, pulsed laser deposition (PLD), metal-organic deposition (MOD), and metal organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD), the co-evaporation method has a strong advantage of higher deposition rate because metal sources can be used as precursor materials. After the first attempt to produce REBCO films by the co-evaporation method in 1987, various co-evaporation technologies for high performance REBCO films have been developed during last several decades. The key points of each co-evaporation technology are reviewed in this article, which enables us to have a good insight into a new high throughput process, called as a Reactive Co-Evaporation by Deposition and Reaction (RCE-DR).

Metal organic chemical vapor deposition has been investigated for growth of $Sb_{2-x}Bi_xTe_3$ films on (001) GaAs substrates using diisopropyltelluride, triethylantimony and trimethylbismuth as metal organic sources. The thermoelectric properties were measured at room temperature and include Seebeck coefficient, electrical conductivity and Hall effect. In-plane carrier concentration and electrical Hall mobility were highly dependent on precursor's composition ratio and deposition temperature. The thermoelectric Power factor($={\alpha}^2{\sigma}$) was calculated from theses properties. The best Power factor was $2.6\;{\times}\;10^{-3}W/mK^2$, given by grown $Sb_{1.6}Bi_{0.4}Te_3$ at $450^{\circ}C$. These materials could potentially be incorporated into advanced thermoelectric unicouples for a variety of power generation applications.

A systematic isolation and characterization study for Cassia auriculata (CA) seeds resulted in identifying antidiabetic compounds 1,3,8-trihydroxyanthraquinone and quercetin, quercetin-3-O-rutinoside, gallic acid, caffeic acid, ferulic acid, and ellagic acid. The ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography based triple quadrupole mass spectrometry methodology was developed and validated for simultaneous identification and confirmation of these compounds from CA seeds. Multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) based quantification method was developed with MRM optimizer software for MS1 and MS2 mass analysis. The method was optimized on precursor ions and product ions with the ion ratio of each compound. The calibration curves of seven bioactive analytes showed excellent linearity (r2 ≥ 0.99). The quantitation results found precise (RSD, < 10 %) with good recoveries (84.58 to 101.42%). The matrix effect and extraction recoveries were found within the range (91.66 to 102.11%) for the CA seeds. This is the first MS/MS-based methodology applied to quantifying seven antidiabetic compounds in CA seeds and its extract for quality control purposes.

Clay minerals are natural materials that show widespread applications in various branches of science, including environmental sciences, in particular the remediation of water contaminated with various water pollutants. Modified clays and minerals have attracted the attention of researchers in the recent past since the modified materials are seemingly more useful and efficient for removing emerging water contaminants. Therefore, modified engineered materials having multi-functionalities have received greater interest from researchers. The advanced clay-based materials are highly effective in the remediation of water contaminated with organic and inorganic contaminants, and these materials show enhanced selectivity towards the specific pollutants. The review inherently discusses various methods employed in the modification of clays and addresses the challenges in synthesizing the advanced engineered materials precursor to natural clay minerals. The changes in physical and chemical properties, as investigated by various characterization techniques before and after the modifications, are broadly explained. Further, the implications of these materials for the decontamination of waterbodies as contaminated with potential water pollutants are extensively discussed. Additionally, the insights involved in the removal of organic and inorganic pollutants are discussed in the review. Furthermore, the future perspectives and specific challenges in the scaling up of the treatment methods in technology development are included in this communication.

Photochemical ozone is formed from nitrogen oxides (NOx) and volatile organic compounds(VOCs) through non-linear interactions between chemical reactions and meteorology, and the relationship between precursors and photochemical ozone will be changed to match the emission distribution and meteorological fields. It is generally known that for some conditions the process of ozone formation is controlled almost entirely by NOx and is largely independent of VOC, while for other conditions ozone production increases with increasing VOC and does not increase(or sometimes even decreases) with increasing NOx (omitted)
