The presentation is made as part of introducing some novel technologies in Chemical Engineering. It aims at conveying an overall idea about the Sol-Gel Technology, its underlying processes, applications as well as its future possibilities.
Metallic nanoparticles (MNPs) is a type of nanoparticle which have a metal core composed of inorganic metal or metal oxide that is usually covered with a shell made up of organic or inorganic material or metal oxide.
Chemical Vapour Deposition is a Chemical Synthesis route of Nanomaterials. Specially thin films like Graphene and Carbon NanoTubes are grown by this method.
Fabrication and Characterization of 2D Titanium Carbide MXene NanosheetsBecker Budwan
Typically, 2D free-standing crystals exhibit different properties from those of 3D counterparts. In this work, 2D nanosheets of Ti3C2 are synthesized by the room temperature exfoliation of Ti3AlC2 in hydrofluoric acid. Al is extracted from Ti3AlC2 and a new 2D material that we call MXene is formed to emphasize its graphene-like morphology. The treated powders can be used in the fabrication of Li-ion batteries and capacitors. A NSEM image of the treated powder shows the influence of HF treatment on the basal planes. Furthermore, XRD results shows the broadening of the peaks and loss of diffraction signal in the out-of-plane direction owing to exfoliation.

Bismuth is a crystalline, brittle metal and constitutes the most naturally diamagnetic metal. Bismuth has the property that it expands as it freezes and also has unusually high electrical resistance for a metal. Its thermal conductivity is lower than any metal except mercury. Bismuth is a semimetal with rhombohedral crystal structure and Bi shows a semimetal-semiconductor transition in low-dimensional structures, hence making it a candidate for nano-technical applications. We aim to provide an introduction to these technical applications of bismuth nano-particles by way of this presentation.

A large portion of our polymer optics require thin-film coating. Beware, not all caters are created equally and it takes a unique skill set to coat polymer optics. Some would say coating polymer optics is an art form. So, we leave this to the experts.
This is an effort to makemodule and lesson plan for delivering lecture on class room. The unit covered is surface chemistry of class XII Chemistry subject.
Design & Fabrication of a low cost spin coaterSaurabh Pandey
Spin Coating is basically a procedure which is used to deposit uniform thin films to any flat surface of work piece. Usually a small amount of coating material is applied on the centre of the work piece’s surface when the disk is spinning at very low speed. Here in this process we are using the basic principle of centrifugal force. This is applied due to the spinning of Disk.
Colloids are crucial to both ordinary living and pharmacological formulations. the study of both big molecules
and intricately divided multiphase systems is known as colloidal science. the intersection of colloid and
surface science is the multi-phase system. a colloid is a mixture in which one material is suspended within
another substance and has insoluble particles scattered over a tiny scale. between genuine solutions and
suspensions, colloidal solutions or colloidal dispersions represent a middle ground. the dispersed phase of
colloids is distributed throughout the dispersion medium. in many facets of chemistry, colloidal chemistry
knowledge is necessary. this article provides information on what colloids are, their types, sizes, forms,
qualities, and uses.
Novel effects can occur in materials when structures are formed with sizes comparable to any one of many possible length scales, such as the de Broglie wavelength of electrons, or the optical wavelengths of high energy photons. In these cases quantum mechanical effects can dominate material properties. One example is quantum confinement where the electronic properties of solids are altered with great reductions in particle size. The optical properties of nanoparticles, e.g. fluorescence, also become a function of the particle diameter. This effect does not come into play by going from macrosocopic to micrometer dimensions, but becomes pronounced when the nanometer scale is reached.
Here almost full every topics interrelated with colloid chemistry has been discussed.The slides have been made showing question pattern taking Begum Rokeya University Chemistry Department previous year questions to appear the slides easy towards the viewers.Stay join with me.Thank you.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

Thin films in nano particles
1. THIN FILMS
DEFINITION
A thin film is a layer of material ranging from fractions of
a nanometer (monolayer) to several micrometers in
thickness.
2. METHODS OF APPLYING THIN FILMS
• Physical vapor deposition
• Chemical vapor deposition
• Electrodeposition
• Langmuir-Blodgett
• Sol-gel method
3. PHYSICAL VAPOUR DEPOSITION
The objective of these deposition processes is to controllably transfer atoms from
a source to a substrate where film formation and growth proceed atomistically.
IMPORTANT METHODS :
EVAPORATION
SPUTTERING
LASER DEPOSITION
4. EVAPORATION
In evaporation method , atoms are removed from the source by thermal means.
Until the late 1960s, evaporation clearly surpassed sputtering as the preferred film deposition technique.
Higher deposition rates, better vacuum, and, thus, cleaner environments for film formation and growth, and
general applicability to all classes of materials were some of the reasons for the ascendancy of evaporation
methods.
Two modes of evaporation can be distinguished in practice, depending on whether the vapor effectively
emanates from a liquid or solid source. As a rule of thumb, a melt will be required if the element in question
does not achieve a vapor pressure greater than lop3 torr at its melting point. Most metals fall into
this category, and effective film deposition is attained only when the source is heated into the liquid phase.
On the other hand, elements such as Cr, Ti, Mo, Fe, and Si reach sufficiently high vapor pressures below the
melting point and, therefore, sublime.
The vapour composition is usually different from that of the original solid or liquid source.

(LECVD) chemical vapor deposition
9. SOL-GEL METHOD
”Formation of an oxide network through polycondensation reactions of a
molecular precursor in a liquid.”
A sol is a stable dispersion of colloidal particles or polymers in a solvent.
The particles may be amorphous or crystalline. An aerosol is particles in a gas
phase, while a sol is particles in a liquid,
A gel consists of a three dimensional continuous network, which encloses a
liquid phase, In a colloidal gel, the network is built from agglomeration of
colloidal particles. In a polymer gel the particles have a polymeric sub-structure
made by aggregates of sub-colloidal particles. Generally, the sol particles may
interact by van der Waals forces or hydrogen bonds. A gel may also be formed
from linking polymer chains. In most gel systems used for materials synthesis,
the interactions are of a covalent nature and the gel process is irreversible. The
gelation process may be reversible if other interactions are involved.
10. •The idea behind sol-gel synthesis is to “dissolve” the compound in a
liquid in order to bring it back as a solid in a controlled manner.
•Multi component compounds may be prepared with a controlled
stoichiometry by mixing sols of different compounds.
•The sol-gel method prevents the problems with co-precipitation, which
may be inhomogeneous, be a gelation reaction.
•Enables mixing at an atomic level.
•Results in small particles, which are easily sinterable
