A calamitic symmetric liquid crystalline consisting of an azo group containing 5H-Thiazolo[3,4-b][1,3,4]thiadiazole moiety compound[III] was synthesized via sequence reactions starting from reaction terephthaldehyde with mercaptoacetic acid and thiosemicarbazide in the presence of concentrated sulfuric acid to synthesized 5,5'-(1,4-phenylene)bis(5Hthiazolo[4,3-b][1,3,4]thiadiazol-2-amine)[I] then the azo compound [II] synthesized by coupling between diazonium salt of the compound [I] with phenol at (0-4) ̊C., after that the compound [III] was synthesized by the reaction of the compound [II] with methyl bromide in alkaline media. The compounds are characterized by melting points, FTIR and 1HNMR spectroscopy. The mesomorphic behavior was stu

Two series of bent and liner core mesogen containing 1,2,4-traizole ring [VI]a,g and series were synthesized by many steps starting from esterification of isophthalic acid and terephathalic acid with methanol to yield diester compound [I]a,b which was converted to their acid hydrazide [II]a,b and the acid hydrazide reacted with ammonium thiocyanate or diester reacted with thiosemicarbazide to yield compounds [III]a,b. Then cyclization by 4% NaOH to yielded 1,2,4 traizole-3- thiol compounds [IV]a,b , afterword adding hydrazine hydrate to yield compounds [V]a,b. These compounds condensated with different substituted aldehyde to give new Schiff bases[VI]a,b ,[VII]a,b . Also , reaction acid hydrazide [II]a,b with aldehyde [VII] to yielded Schif

Aluminum doped zinc oxide nanoparticles (AZO) with different doping concentrations were prepared by Nd-YAG laser ablation of target in deionized water. The characterization of these nanoparticles was performed using Fourier transform infrared (FTIR)  spectroscopy,  scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and photoluminance spectroscopy (PL).  FTIR spectra confirmed the formation  of vibrational bonds for ZnO NPs and AZO NPs. SEM images illustrated that the size and shape of the NPs changed with changing the number of laser pulses. Photoluminescence peaks exhibited two emission peaks, one at the UV region and the second in the visible region, which were modified as the number of laser pulses and doping concentration were ch

This research includes the synthesis, characterization, and investigation of liquid crystalline properties of new rod-shaped liquid crystal compounds 1,4- phenylene bis(2-(5-(four-alkoxybenzylidene)-2,4-dioxothiazolidin-3- yl)acetate), prepared thiazolidine-2,4-dione (I) by the thiourea reaction with chloroacetic acid and water in the presence of the concentrated hydrochloric acid. The n-alkoxy benzaldehyde (II)n synthesized from the reacted 4- hydreoxybenzaldehyde and n-alkyl bromide with potassium hydroxide, and then the compound (I) was reacted with (II)n in the presence of piperidine to produce compounds (III)n. Also, hydroquinone was converted into a corresponding compound (IV) by refluxing with two moles of chloracetyl chloride in pyr

Single crystal of CsHSO4 component was grown by slow evaporation method of aqueous solution with normality N=1 . The study shows that the importance of the process of Recrystal growth of CsHSO4 crystals. The results show the improve of the characteristics of crystals (transparent, size, shape, number and quality) . By X-Ray diffraction, the crystal structure of these crystals have been confirmed by measurement constants of unit cell of crystal lattice. The vibration modes of crystals were studied by FTIR (Fourier Transform Infrared) technique. Finally, achieving the study of microstructure of crystals by polarization of microscopy that is supported with hot stage at different temperatures. The changes occur on these crystals by changing

Liquid – liquid interface reaction is one of the method to prepare nanoparticles, the preparation of nanoparticles depends on the super saturation of ions which can satisfy by layered two immiscible liquid (toluene and deionized (DI) water). The XRD-diffraction analysis give a mix structure from hexagonal and cubic and the average grain size is 7.73 nm using Sherrer relation and 9.54 nm using Williamson –Hall method. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) Showed that the size of particles around 3 nm which is comparable with Bohr radius of CdS.
From UV-Visible spectrum analysis which use two model to estimate the radius of particles , the first one is effective mass approximate (EMA) model and the second one is tight binding model

The work involves synthesis of a new homologous series of hydrogen bonding
