Article Abstract

The current study has been conducted to assess the influence of the morphology of bismuth ferrite perovskite (BiFeO) on its photocatalytic performance. Nanorod and nanoparticle morphologies of BiFeO were prepared using the hydrothermal process and analyzed with several techniques. The photocatalysts' effectiveness was appraised by MB photo-degradation in the presence of visible light. Various techniques were applied to analyze the structure, morphology, together with photoelectrochemical and optical properties of the photocatalyst. Optimum photo-degradation parameters were recognized via RSM, resulting in a maximum MB degradation efficiency of 98.2% (0.2021 min) in 20 min for nanorods. Whereas, the degradation yield for nanoparticles was achieved at 76% (0.075 min).From the radical trapping experiments, superoxide reactive radicals played a main role in MB photo-degradation. Also, BiFeO nanorods displayed superb stability during the five cycles of the photo-reaction procedure. This current survey suggests that the appropriate selection of nanomaterial morphology is crucial for achieving efficient photocatalysts.

Room-temperature multiferroic BiFeO (BFO) is a promising candidate for next-generation memory and spintronic devices, but its synthesis is hindered by metastability and complex phase evolution pathways. Achieving atomic-scale control over these pathways is critical for unlocking BFO's functional potential. Here, we integrate atomic-resolution scanning transmission electron microscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy and density functional theory to dissect the BFO formation mechanism using annealed Bi/Fe thin-film model systems.

Globally, cardiovascular disease (CVD) constitute a primary source of morbidity and mortality. Timely and precise diagnosis of pertinent biomarkers and function parameters can provide valuable insight into the physiological and pathological processes associated with CVD. This research aims to develop a new sensing platform for C-reactive protein (CRP) to detect cardiovascular disease, utilizing an indium tin oxide (ITO) electrode modified with hydrothermally synthesized bismuth-doped cobalt ferrite (BiCoFeO) nanoparticles (NPs) by varying bismuth concentrations of ( = 0.

Ferroelectric vortices have received much attention in the past decade due to their functionalities and potential applications in nanoelectronics. However, most of the vortices fabricated in the nanoislands have a size of more than a hundred nanometers, which limits the miniaturization of electronic devices. Here, we show the realization of a high-density vortex lattice with ~10- to 20-nanometer size in ultrathin bismuth ferrite/barium titanate bilayer by strain engineering.

The poor magnetic and magneto-optical properties of BiFeO, along with its significant lattice mismatch with silicon, have limited its application in silicon-based integrated magneto-optical devices. In this study, co-doping with Sr and Ti ions effectively transformed the trigonal structure of BiFeO into a cubic phase, thereby reducing the lattice mismatch with silicon to 2.8%.
