Silicon (Si) is a naturally occurring beneficial nutrient which modulates plant growth and development events and has been known to improve the crop tolerance to abiotic stresses. A pot experiment was conducted during 2011 at the Postgraduate Research Station (PARS), University of Agriculture Faisalabad, Pakistan. We evaluated growth of two maize hybrids P-33H25 and FH-810 under well watered and water...
A high‐energy‐capacity, flexible lithium‐ion battery is fabricated using a new nanofibril‐structured silicon anode on a flexible current collector. Silicon is known to be the highest capacity anode material. However, its huge volume changes during the lithium insertion and extraction results in pulverization, which is the cause of the rapid capacity fade that occurs as the charge‐discharge cycles...
Electrical characteristic of bottom-up synthesized silicon nanowire FETs is studied for possible pH sensing device applications. Dodecanethiol (DDT) molecules are used for the passivation of gold electrodes. This passivation changes the drain current level and the threshold voltage of the transistor, which could be due to the reaction of native oxide of the silicon surface with DDT molecules. The...
