High pressure in-situ X-ray diffraction study on Zn-doped magnetite nanoparticles
2018
We have performed high pressure synchrotron X-ray powder diffraction experiments on two different samples of Zn-doped magnetite nanoparticles (formula Fe(3-x)ZnxO4; x = 0.2, 0.5). The structural behavior of then a noparticles was studied up to 13.5 GPa for x = 0.2, and up to 17.4 GPa for x = 0.5. We have found that both systems remain in the cubic spinel structure as expected for this range of applied pressures. The analysis of the unit cell volume vs. pressure results in bulk modulus values lower than in both end-members, magnetite (Fe3O4) and zinc ferrite (ZnFe2O4), suggesting that chemical disorder may favor compressibility, which is expected to improve the increase of the Neel temperatu…
External quantum efficiency measurements used to study the stability of differently deposited perovskite solar cells
2020
The instability exhibited by perovskite solar cells when exposed to the environment under illumination is one of the major obstacles for the entry of perovskite technology in the photovoltaic market. In this work, we use the external quantum efficiency (EQE) technique to study the photoinduced degradation of two types of solar cells having CH3NH3PbI3 as an absorber layer: one deposited by spin coating with an n-i-p architecture and the other deposited by evaporation with an inverted p-i-n structure. We also study the effect of different encapsulants to protect the cells against atmospheric agents. We find that EQE provides information regarding the areas of the cell most susceptible to degr…
Current-induced fingering instability in magnetic domain walls
2015
The shape instability of magnetic domain walls under current is investigated in a ferromagnetic (Ga,Mn)(As,P) film with perpendicular anisotropy. Domain wall motion is driven by the spin transfer torque mechanism. A current density gradient is found either to stabilize domains with walls perpendicular to current lines or to produce finger-like patterns, depending on the domain wall motion direction. The instability mechanism is shown to result from the non-adiabatic contribution of the spin transfer torque mechanism.
Light-responsive hybrid material based on luminescent core-shell quantum dots and steroidal organogel
2016
We report the synthesis of a smart novel hybrid with reversible photoswitchable luminescence properties modulated by light. The combination of a low molecular weight organogelator (LMOG) and CdSe/ZnS core-shell semiconductor nanoparticles capped with trioctylphosphine oxide ligands produces a luminescent, stable and transparent material. Modulation of the luminescence properties was successfully achieved using a diarylethene photochromic compound, with good resistance to fatigue ca. 22 cycles. Interestingly, the morphology of the organogel fibers was preserved in the hybrid, while a partial luminescence quenching of the nanoparticle was observed. This material could have implication for on-…
Defect spectroscopy of single ZnO microwires
2014
The point defects of single ZnO microwires grown by carbothermal reduction were studied by microphotoluminescence, photoresistance excitation spectra, and resistance as a function of the temperature. We found the deep level defect density profile along the microwire showing that the concentration of defects decreases from the base to the tip of the microwires and this effect correlates with a band gap narrowing. The results show a characteristic deep defect levels inside the gap at 0.88 eV from the top of the VB. The resistance as a function of the temperature shows defect levels next to the bottom of the CB at 110 meV and a mean defect concentration of 4 1018 cm3 . This combination of tech…
Fe3O4@Au@mSiO2 as an enhancing nanoplatform for Rose Bengal photodynamic activity
2017
A novel nanoplatform composed of three types of materials with different functionalities, specifically core-shell Fe3O4@Au nanoparticles encapsulated near the outer surface of mesoporous silica (mSiO2) nanoparticles, has been successfully synthesised and used to enhance the efficiency of a photosensitiser, namely Rose Bengal, in singlet oxygen generation. Fe3O4 is responsible for the unusual location of the Fe3O4@Au nanoparticle, while the plasmonic shell acts as an optical antenna. In addition, the mesoporous silica matrix firmly encapsulates Rose Bengal by chemical bonding inside the pores, thus guaranteeing its photostability, and in turn making the nanosystem biocompatible. Moreover, th…
Nucleant layer effect on nanocolumnar ZnO films grown by electrodeposition
2013
Different ZnO nanostructured films were electrochemically grown, using an aqueous solution based on ZnCl2, on three types of transparent conductive oxides grow on commercial ITO (In2O3:Sn)-covered glass substrates: (1) ZnO prepared by spin coating, (2) ZnO prepared by direct current magnetron sputtering, and (3) commercial ITO-covered glass substrates. Although thin, these primary oxide layers play an important role on the properties of the nanostructured films grown on top of them. Additionally, these primary oxide layers prevent direct hole combination when used in optoelectronic devices. Structural and optical characterizations were carried out by scanning electron microscopy, atomic for…
Cobalt ferrite nanoparticles under high pressure
2015
We report by the first time a high pressure X-ray diffraction and Raman spectroscopy study of cobalt ferrite (CoFe2O4) nanoparticles carried out at room temperature up to 17 GPa. In contrast with previous studies of nanoparticles, which proposed the transition pressure to be reduced from 20–27 GPa to 7.5–12.5 GPa (depending on particle size), we found that cobalt ferrite nanoparticles remain in the spinel structure up to the highest pressure covered by our experiments. In addition, we report the pressure dependence of the unit-cell parameter and Raman modes of the studied sample. We found that under quasi-hydrostatic conditions, the bulk modulus of the nanoparticles (B0 = 204 GPa) is consid…
Terveyskasvatus tutkimus- ja koulutusalana sekä arjen käytäntöinä
1992
Artikkelissa esitellään terveyskasvatuksen yliopistollista asiantuntijakoulutusta, terveyskasvatustutkimuksen osa-alueita ja tutkimuskohteita sekä käytännön terveyskasvatuksen tehtäviä ja päämääriä. Terveyskasvatuksen neljä suurta tehtävää ovat sivistävä tehtävä, virittävä tehtävä, mielenterveystehtävä ja muutosta avustava tehtävä. Terveyskasvatustutkimuksen osa-alueina nähtiin terveyskasvatuksen teoreettinen tutkimus, terveyskäyttäytymistutkimus, terveyskasvatuksen arviointitutkimus sekä terveyskasvatuksen yhteiskunnallinen tutkimus. Terveyskasvatuksen kokonaisvaltaiseksi määritelmänä esitettiin seuraava: ”Terveyskasvatuksen tavoitteena on kasvatuksellisin ja viestinnällisin keinoin tukea …
