Monoclinic vanadium dioxide (VO2 (M)) particles co-doped with niobium and tungsten, with potential application in smart windows, were synthesized by hydrolysis and subsequent thermal decomposition of vanadyl sulfate. All the doped VO2 particles exhibited a monoclinic crystalline phase and the critical phase transition temperature (Tc) of VO2 (M) was adjusted by Nb and W co-doping. The Tc of Nb-doped VO2 (M) decreased at a rate of approximately 10 °C/at% Nb dopant, and the transition temperature could also be accurately controlled to room temperature (about 27 °C) by co-doping with Nb and W. A film prepared using co-doped VO2 (M) particles showed a solar modulation ability of ~18% and a luminous transmittance of 40%, indicating that the co-doped VO2 (M) particles represent suitable candidates for smart window applications.

AbstractSilicon and indium co-doped ZnO thin films with both high optical and electrical performances have been successfully synthesised for the first time by the technique of spray pyrolysis. We find that this co-doping strategy can achieve comparable Figures-of-Merit performances to indium zinc oxide itself, but with, importantly, a significant saving in the indium content. The properties of the co-doped films are compared with those of either single indium or silicon doping.

ABSTRACT(Er, Si) co-doped GaN thin films were grown on Si substrates by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) technique. Electroluminescent devices (ELDs) were fabricated and the effect of Si co-doping on the performance of GaN devices was studied. Previous results with GaN:Er ELDs reported that electroluminescence (EL) was much stronger in reverse bias than in forward bias condition, indicating that the dominant factor in EL intensity was the electric field. The results reported here show the first time GaN:Er ELDs where forward bias EL is very much larger, indicating that the dominant factor is forward bias current. The electrical properties of (Si, Er) co-doped GaN thin films are believed to be responsible for the current control mechanism.

Co doping increases the ZnO resistivity (ρ) at high T (HT), whereas it has an opposite effect at low T (LT). H balances the Co effects by neutralizing the ρ increase at HT and strengthening its decrease at LT.

Hydroxyapatite (Ca10(PO4)6(OH)2, HAp), due to its high biocompatibility, is widely used as biomaterial. Doping with various ions of hydroxyapatite is performed to acquire properties as close as possible to the biological apatite present in bones and teeth. In this research the results of a study performed on thin films of hydroxyapatite co-doped with nitrogen and bromine (NBrHAp) are presented for the first time. The NBrHAp suspension was obtained by performing the adapted co-precipitation method using cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB). The thin layers of NBrHAp were obtained by spin-coating. The stability of the NBrHAp suspension was examined by ultrasound measurements. The thin layers obtained by the spin-coating method were examined by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), optical microscopy (OM), and metallographic microscopy (MM). The presence of nitrogen and bromine were highlighted by energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) studies. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) was used to highlight the chemical status of nitrogen and bromine. In addition, the powder obtained from the NBrHAp suspension was analyzed by XRD. Moreover, the in vitro antimicrobial activity of the NBrHAp suspensions and coatings was investigated using the reference microbial strains Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 25923, Escherichia coli ATCC 25922, and Candida albicans ATCC 10231. The results highlighted the successful obtainment of N and Br co-doped hydroxyapatite suspension for the first time by an adapted co-precipitation method. The obtained suspension was used to produce pure NBrHAp composite thin films with superior morphological properties. The NBrHAp suspensions and coatings exhibited in vitro antimicrobial activity against bacterial and fungal strains and revealed their good antimicrobial activity.
