X-ray and Raman study of CH3NH3PbI3 perovskite nanocrystals
Organic-inorganic hybrid perovskite nanocrystals have gained considerable attention for optoelectronics applications due to their unique properties like high light absorption coefficient, band gap tunability, and larger diffusion length. In this work, the ligand-assisted re-precipitation method (LARP) was employed to synthesize CH3NH3PbI3 nanocrystals (NCs). The optical and structural properties of nanocrystals depend on their size. X-ray…

Graphene – properties, production and rising applications: A review
Out of all the 2D materials discovered until now, Graphene has been the hot topic to date. Graphene is a two dimensional-sp2 bonded, single-layer membrane of a carbon atom tightly bonded in a hexagonal honeycomb lattice. The layers of graphene are piled up to form graphite. The single layers of graphene are held together by…
