In this work, using the spin coating method to create polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF)/polyethylene oxide (PEO) thin films, the effects of nano-tungsten oxide (WO₂) doping were investigated. The novelty of this research lies in its investigation of varying weight concentrations of WO₂ nanoparticles (NPs) within the composite films. Comprehensive characterization techniques were employed, including structural analysis via X-ray diffraction (XRD), which revealed a clear and prominent peak in the XRD of the PVDF/PEO films, and the films' polycrystalline nature with tetragonal structures. The grain size was noted to increase with higher WO₂ NPs doping. Field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) showed

This study investigates the electrical and optical properties of polyaniline (PANI) composites incorporating graphene oxide (GO) and metal oxides such as tin dioxide (SnO₂) and tungsten trioxide (WO₃). The addition of GO improves charge transport due to its high surface area and conductive nature. Moreover, SnO₂ contributes to stabilizing the electrical conductivity of the composites over time, while WO₃ introduces frequency-dependent charge-trapping behavior that influences dynamic electrical responses. Optically, GO modifies the bandgap and enhances UV-visible light absorption through improved photon interaction. SnO₂ improves the spectral stability of the composites, and WO₃ fine-tunes the wavelength-dependent optical resp

In this work, gold/ titanium oxide: cadmium sulfide (Au/TiO₂:CdS) thin film nanocomposites as photocatalysts were synthesized using the sol-gel technique and deposited on glass substrates using the dipping method for the degradation of Methylene Blue (MB) dye in water. The CdS doping with TiO2 at ratios 1:1, 0.25, and 0.5 wt%. Au/TiO₂: CdS thin film characterization was achieved using X-ray diffraction (XRD), atomic force microscopy (AFM), Raman spectroscopy, field effect electron scanning microscopy (FESEM), and UV-Vis spectroscopy. The results of XRD showed that the obtained phase of TiO₂: CdS was cubic. The results of AFM showed that the distribution of grain sizes increased with increasing CdS concentration, as did the roughnes

Dust storms frequent in Iraq can have far-reaching consequences for the distribution and abundance of heavy and trace elements within the soil, ultimately influencing the dynamics of ecosystems. This study aims to identify the sources of the severe dust storm in Iraq on May 16, 2022, and assess the heavy element pollution and their environmental impacts.

This study includes the direct influence of (single & multi) dose of Cold Atmospheric Plasma (CAP) on the no. of platelets for mice for different exposure time (15, 30, 60, and 120) sec. the influence of CAP on mice was measured after 1, 2, 3, 7, and 14 day from exposure.
The results obtained in this study indicate that the effect of low doses of CAP on platelets was stimulatory effect in the first few hours from exposure (1day) but the high dose was inhibitory, It was found that after two weeks of exposure that the number of platelets became normal comparable to the control one, and this indicates that plasma effect was removed after this period.

This research shows how to prepare polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) films with silver nanoparticles and how different amounts of these nanoparticles affect the films' properties. The silver nanoparticles (AgNPs), featuring a uniform spherical shape, were synthesised using the chemical reduction method. The concentration of AgNPs and the amount of the reducing agent were found to influence the structural and optical characteristics of the prepared films. Higher volumes of the reducing agent have resulted in the formation of larger silver nanoparticles. These factors affected the size of the silver nanoparticles and the specific absorption peak, which was between 420 and 435 nm, with the nanoparticles measuring between 20 and 32 nm in size

Nuclear emission rates for nucleon-induced reactions are theoretically calculated based on the one-component exciton model that uses state density with non-Equidistance Spacing Model (non-ESM). Fair comparison is made from different state density values that assumed various degrees of approximation formulae, beside the zeroth-order formula corresponding to the ESM. Calculations were made for 96Mo nucleus subjected to (N,N) reaction at Emax=50 MeV. The results showed that the non-ESM treatment for the state density will significantly improve the emission rates calculated for various exciton configurations. Three terms might suffice a proper calculation, but the results kept changing even for ten terms. However, five terms is found to give

In an earlier paper, the basic analytical formula for particle-hole nuclear state densities was derived for non-Equidistant Spacing Model (non-ESM) approach. In this paper, an extension of the former equation was made to include pairing. Also a suggestion was made to derive the exact formula for the particle-hole state densities that depends exactly on Fermi energy and nuclear binding energies. The results indicated that the effects of pairing reduce the state density values, with similar dependence in the ESM system but with less strength. The results of the suggested exact formula indicated some modification from earlier non-ESM approximate treatment, on the cost of more calculation time

The Neutron Fermi Age, t, and the neutron slowing down density,   q (r, t) , have been measured for some materials such as Graphite and Iron by using gamma spectrometry system UCS-30 with NaI (Tl) detector.

AlO-doped ZnO nanocrystalline thin films from with nano crystallite size in the range (19-15 nm) were fabricated by pulsed laser deposition technique. The reduction of crystallite size by increasing of doping ratio shift the bandgap to IR region the optical band gap decreases in a consistent manner, from 3.21to 2.1 eV by increasing AlO doping ratio from 0 to 7wt% but then returns to grow up to 3.21 eV by a further increase the doping ratio. The bandgap increment obtained for 9% AlO dopant concentration can be clarified in terms of the Burstein–Moss effect whereas the aluminum donor atom increased the carrier's concentration which in turn shifts the Fermi level and widened the bandgap (blue-shift). The engineering of the bandgap by low
