Item Nano-bio interface study between Fe content TiO2 nanoparticles and adenosine triphosphate biomolecules(John Wiley and Sons Ltd, 2019) Barkhade T.; Phatangare A.; Dahiwale S.; Mahapatra S.K.; Banerjee I.The advent of nano-biotechnology has inspired the interface interaction study between engineered nanoparticles (NPs) and biomolecules. The interaction between Fe content titanium dioxide (TiO2) NPs and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) biomolecules has been envisioned. The effect of Fe content in TiO2 matrix was studied using X-ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The increase in Fe content caused a decrease in particle size with change in morphology from spherical to one-dimensional rod structure. The Fe incorporation in the TiO2 matrix reduced the transition temperature from anatase to rutile (A-R) phase along with formation of haematite phase of iron oxide at 400°C. The interaction of Fe content TiO2 NPs with ATP molecule has been studied using spectroscopic method of Raman scattering and infrared vibration spectrum along with TEM. Fe content in TiO2 has enhanced the interaction efficiency of the NPs with ATP biomolecules. Raman spectroscopy confirms that the NPs interact strongly with nitrogen (N7) site in the adenine ring of ATP biomolecule. Engineering of Fe content TiO2 NP could successfully tune the coordination between metal oxide NPs with biomolecules, which could help in designing devices for biomedical applications.Item Electron beam induced synthesis of Ru-rGO and its super capacitive behavior(IOP Publishing Ltd, 2019) Saykar N.G.; Phatangare A.; Banerjee I.; Bhoraskar V.N.; Ray A.K.; Mahapatra S.K.We report an in situ synthesis of ruthenium-reduced graphene oxide (Ru-rGO) using 6 MeV electron beam assisted radiolytic reduction method and its supercapacitive behavior. X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) explore Ru nanoparticles of size ?2 nm are decorated on rGO sheets. Raman spectroscopy shows I D/I G ratio increased and formation of bilayer rGO after electron beam irradiation. The defect density in Ru-rGO is increased due to the electron beam irradiation as compared to its counterpart GO. The Ru-rGO based supercapacitor exhibits specific capacitance (128.1 ± 5.59) F g-1 at 10 mV s-1 scan rate. The specific capacitance retention of Ru-rGO is up to 99.4% at 900 cycles while it increases to 130% at 5000 cycles. Discharge curve of the supercapacitor involves three current decay processes viz. activation polarization, ohmic polarization and concentration polarization. The highest energy density of (4.125 ± 0.19) W h kg-1 and power density of 1.44 kW kg-1 are achieved with Ru-rGO supercapacitor. This unique electron beam assisted techniques illustrates a promising method of the fabrication of high performance supercapacitor.
