In this study, the effect of benzenethiol ligand on CdSe/ZnS core/shell quantum dots was investigated. Conventional long-chain oleic acid (OA) and trioctylphosphine (TOP) capping ligands were partially replaced by short benzenethiol ligands, and the improvement in the luminescence performance was observed in quantum dot light emitting diodes (QD-LED). Approximately 1.8 fold improvement was achieved for both the maximum luminance and maximum current efficiency for the QD-LEDs fabricated with…

operations. The successful course of the desulfurization process is provided by fire refining slag with specific chemical composition, usually based on calcium oxide. The duration of mixing of the metal with the slag in inert gas, the early formation of refining slag, then optimization of the metal oxidation providing the formation of iron oxide FeO in the slag to be less than 0.5 % able process of desulfurization. Using of rare earth metals for desulphurization of steel is very promising.…

prove and discern the empirical formula of copper oxide using the Law of Conservation of Mass. This states that in measuring the mass of each component of copper oxide and determining the percent composition of each the copper and the oxygen within copper oxide it is possible to find the ratio of the elements within the compound. Procedure: In order to conduct this lab, 25.1mL of distilled water then 25.5mL of 3M HCl must be added 2.11g of copper oxide. This solution must be stirred until…

Nitrous Oxide in Dentistry Tooth ache is one of the most painful experiences to go through for a person. However, some people avoid going to their dentist because of the fear of pain and anxiety. They bear the dental pain just so that they do not have to go to the dental clinic and have their issue resolved. The reason for this anxiety is largely down to the fear that they are going to feel a great deal of pain during the dental procedure. Dentistry has evolved quite a bit in the last few years…

propylene oxide and water. This involve the process of the hydrolysis of propylene oxide (C3H6O, PO) with the presence of excess water and a small concentration of catalyst. The catalyst that plays the role in this reaction is the sulphuric acid. The reaction occurs in the reactor at the reasonable rate which near the ambient temperatures. The temperature of the solution can rises due to the continuous reaction process. The heat reaction because of the temperature of propylene oxide which is…

The propylene glycol is considered to be one of the common organic compounds which can be used in many life applications. It can be used in antifreeze, pharmaceuticals and many applications as well. It can be produced by hydrolysis of propylene oxide that is accelerated by the catalysis of base or acid. The goal of the experiment is to produce propylene glycol using water and propylene glycol as a reactant to synthesis propylene glycol. The purpose of doing this experiment is to converge and…

org). The penny was the first U.S. Cent to include the words “in God we trust” (pennies.org). Now how do they become dull and dingy? Pennies become dirty because their copper. The copper and oxygen mixes to form copper oxide. Copper oxide is also known as cuprous oxide. Cuprous oxide occurs naturally in some parts of the world as cuprite (wisegeek.org). Cuprite is used in many other substance such as glucose and some types of sugars. Have you ever wondered why the…

cryosphere (ice sheets, oceans, and atmosphere) and geosphere (rocks, soils, and sediments).All these factors influence the changes in the movement of heat on the environment, which leads to climate change. The oceans and lakes absorb carbon (IV) oxide, and the atmosphere is where the different gasses mix. Global climate change is the change in the typical pattern of the climates already established in various environment zones, for instances increase in the length…

1.0) The Ellingham Diagram 1.1) Introduction The Gibbs free energy (∆G) of a reaction is defined as the measure of the thermodynamic force that drives a reaction to occur. When ∆G is positive, it indicates that a reaction will not occur spontaneously while when ∆G is negative, the reaction is spontaneous. The Gibbs free energy equation is given by : ∆G = ∆H –T∆S ∆H refers to the enthalpy and is a measure of the actual energy that is released when the reaction occurs. A negative…

interaction between NO and cytochrome oxidase is possible because geochemical studies have demonstrated that nitric oxide could have been present in early earth(15). Interestingly, studies have shown that many cytochrome oxidase subunits are/can be associated with the denitrification process: a process that involves the reduction of nitric oxide(16). Interactions between nitric oxide and cytochrome oxidase have been observed with NO used as an inhibitor of cytochrome oxidase for regulatory…
