A novel piezoelectricity based nano energy conversion device using vertically aligned ZnO nanowires/PVVH matrix as the working unit is proposed. Thermal energy is converted to electricity via the interaction of the PV...
We report on a first observation of a floating- spherical Hg (density 13g/cm3) drop on top of a glycerin (density 1.26g/cm3) drop, the latter is hemispherical and about four times larger in volume. This observatio...
The effect of annealing on the microstructure and electrical characteristics of poly (3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) films doped with very small amounts of the electron acceptor 2,3,5,6-tetrafluoro-7,7,8,8-tetracyanoqui...

We study the dynamic behavior of marginal metallic glass-forming liquids Al-Ni-M (M=La, Pr, Nd) in terms of liquid fragility in high and low temperature regions. The liquids are extremely fragile above the liquidus ...
Effects of dopant properties on microstructures and the electrical characteristics of poly (3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) films are studied by doping 0.1 wt% 2,3,5,6-tetrafluoro-7,7,8,8-tetracyanoquinodimethane (F4?T...

We prepare NiZnFe2O4 soft magnetic ferrites with different molar ratios with the layered precursor method and investigate their magnetic properties. In the layered precursor, metal ions are scattered on the layer plat...
We study the effects of viscous dissipation on flow and heat transfer in a thin liquid film on an unsteady stretching sheet. A general surface temperature is taken into consideration. The velocity and temperature fiel...
