GaN nanowires have been fabricated successfully on Si (111) substrates coated with NiCl2 thin films by chemical vapor deposition method using Ga2O3 as raw material. The growth of GaN nanowires was investigated as a function of reaction times so as to study the influence of different durations on the components, microstructure, morphologies and optical properties of GaN samples in particular by X-ray diffraction, FT-IR spectrophotometer, scanning electron microscope, and photoluminescence. The results show that the samples after reaction are single crystal GaN with hexagonal wurtzite structure and high-quality crystalline after reaction at 1,100 °C for 60 min, which have good optical properties as revealed by PL spectra. Reaction time greatly influences the growth of GaN nanowires, that is, with the increase in reaction time, the crystalline quality of GaN nanowires is improved accordingly. The growth of the GaN nanowires follows the vapor–liquid-solid mechanism and Ni plays an important role as catalyst, which forms nucleation point in the growth of GaN nanowires.

Nematicidal activity of essential oils: a review
Plant parasitic nematodes are the most destructive group of plant pathogens worldwide and their control is extremely challenging. Plant Essential oils (EOs) and their constituents have a great potential in nematode control since they can be developed for use as nematicides themselves or can ... more
For over a century, ulcer has been a major cause of morbidity and mortality. Its treatment has progressed from vagotomy to proton pump inhibitors. However, the drugs used produce many adverse effects and are less effective than they ought to be. Therefore, there is a growing interest in alt ... more
Endophytic fungi from medicinal plants: a treasure hunt for bioactive metabolites
Endophytic fungi are ubiquitous organisms found in the plants, residing intercellular or intracellular, at least for a portion of their lives without causing apparent symptoms of infection. Almost all plants are known to harbor endophytes. The choice of the plant to be used for exploring en ... more
First machine-generated chemistry book published
Springer Nature published its first machine-generated book, compiled using an algorithm developed by researchers from Goethe University. This collaboration broke new ground with the first machine-generated book to be published by a scholarly publisher. The book is available as a free downl ... more
Is there something up with stinky inflatable pool toys?
Inflatable toys and swimming aids, like bathing rings and arm bands, often have a distinctive smell which could indicate that they contain a range of potentially hazardous substances. Some of these compounds, which include carbonyl compounds, cyclohexanone, phenol and isophorone, might be c ... more
The secrets of vibration-enhanced conductivity in graphene
Graphene, the one-atom-thick material made of carbon atoms, still holds some unexplained qualities, which are important in connection with electronic applications where high-conductivity matters, ranging from smart materials that collectively respond to external stimuli in a coherent, tunab ... more
