Optical Heating Ability of Er3+-Yb3+ Embedded TeO2-WO3 Glass for Thermometric Applications
Abstract: The present research work details laser-induced optical heating ability of the Er3+-Yb3+ embedded TeO2-WO3 glass prepared by the melt-quenching process. The green upconversion emission observed through the 2H11/2→4I15/2 and 4S3/2→4I15/2 transitions of Er3+ ion upon 980 nm diode laser excitation was used to employ fluorescence intensity ratio technique. The results obtained from temperature sensing study were utilized to monitor temperature against pump power provided. The internal heating generated up to …

Green Synthesis and Functional Evaluation of Ag–Polypyrrole/TeO2 Nanocomposites for Advanced Electronic Applications
Abstract: Ag–PPy/TeO₂ nanocomposites with TeO₂ loadings ranging from 2% to 10% were synthesized using an in-situ chemical polymerization method. Green tea extract, rich in phytochemicals, acted as both a reducing and stabilizing agent to facilitate the formation of metal oxide nanoparticles. The structural and morphological characteristics of the nanocomposites were analyzed using FTIR, PXRD, and SEM techniques. FTIR confirmed the successful integration of Ag, TeO₂, and PPy functional groups. PXRD patterns …

Spike Detection and Processing of TDEM Signals using Wavelet Transform
Abstract: This paper presents a new method for spike detection, parameterization and processing in ground based Time Domain Electromagnetic (TDEM) signals. Time Domain Electromagnetic methods are used for mineral exploration by sub-surface conductivity measurement of Earth. The Earth’s response measured using inductive sensors are contaminated by spikes in form of sferics and due to load and phase shift in power distribution lines. The spikes present in the measured signal can significantly …

A Comparative Study of the Antimicrobial Activity of Cinnamomum zeylanicum and Thymus vulgaris Essential Oils with Chlorhexidine on Salivary Streptococcus mutans and Candida albicans
Abstract: The antimicrobial effectiveness of essential oils has been broadly investigated in vitro against various pathogens. However, to our knowledge, there is a lack of reports on evaluating the antimicrobial activities of cinnamon essential oil (CEO) and thyme essential oil (TEO) versus chlorhexidine on oral Streptococcus mutans and Candida albicans. Here, we evaluated and compared the in vitro antimicrobial capabilities of CEO and TEO on oral S. mutans and C. albicans …

AEROGELS – A VALUE ADDITION TO HARVEST SOLAR ENERGY
Abstract: Aerogels are a class of synthetic porous ultralight material that was created in 1930 and derived from a gel, in which the liquid component has been replaced with a gas without collapsing the gel structure by freeze-drying. It is made of silica, but carbon, iron oxide, gold, copper, polymer etc. can also be used. During freeze drying the liquid in the gel is slowly dried off without collapsing the solid …

Gelatin-EiO2 (Ei = Si/Ti/Zr) Based Mesoporous Nano-hybrids: Synthesis and Characterization
Abstract: The hybrid materials are mostly prepared by combining the organic or bio-organic part to the inorganic building blocks and are used in many applications. Gelatin as one of the main component of hybrid materials is an attractive option. It is biodegradable; biocompatible; non-toxic; bio-adhesive and contains many active groups such as –NH2, –COOH, in the biopolymer backbone makes these hybrid materials important in various technological applications. The synthesis of a …

Audiological Profiling in identical Twins with Auditory Neuropathy Spectrum Disorder: A Case Report
Abstract: Congenital or late-onset auditory neuropathy spectrum disorder (ANSD) is a severe form of sensorineural hearing loss primarily affects speech perception. However, there are various etiologies, including birth-related risk factors such as prematurity, hyperbilirubinemia, a genetic infant admitted to neonatal intensive care unit (NICU), anoxia, congenital anomalies, consanguinity, and other infections. A genetic predisposition is likely to be the underlying causative factor in about 40% of cases. It can be inherited …
