Abstract The catalytic effect of gold seed particles deposited on a substrate prior to zinc oxide (ZnO) thin film growth by magnetron sputtering was investigated.For this purpose, selected ultra Filter Bio-Media thin gold layers, with thicknesses close to the percolation threshold, are deposited by thermal evaporation in ultra high vacuum (UHV) con
The article covers the concept of "capitaleness" and "geographical identity".Our research will make an attempt to analyze an institute of capitals at functional as well as symbolic levels.In that case capitals serve not only as a place to dispose the governmental bodies, but their functions include national representation to themselves and the envi
A research has been carried out to develop natural rubber (NR) hybrid composites reinforced with marble sludge (MS)/Silica and MS/rice husk derived silica (RHS).The primary aim of this development is to scrutinize the cure characteristics, mechanical and swelling properties of such hybrid composite.The use of both industrial and agricultural waste
