Abstract:The laws governing the formation of residual stresses in copper oxide nanoparticles in the process of their direct plasma-chemical synthesis in a low-pressure arc discharge plasma are studied. Correlation dependences of the residual stress and the magnetization of nanoparticles on the pressure of the gas mixture of 10% O 2 + 90% Ar are presented. The problems associated with the bifurcation of the magnetization curves during cooling in zero (ZFC) and non-zero (FC) magnetic field, non-equilibrium behavior, rela… Show more
“…The percentage of oxygen had no effect on the CSR values. Here, the value of the total pressure plays a decisive role, as can be seen in more detail in previous works [15,[17][18][19]. In addition, these papers compare the results calculated from X-ray radiographs of the average size of the CSR with the results of transmission electron microscopy.…”

“…The experimental setup and the dependence of powder properties on atomization conditions are discussed in detail in [15][16][17][18]. Copper oxide nanoparticles were deposited on a stainless steel substrate by arc sputtering using a M0 copper cathode.…”
Copper oxide nanoparticles were obtained in the plasma of a low-pressure arc discharge. The effect of the partial pressure of oxygen (10-40%) on the physical properties of the deposited nanoparticles has been studied. X-ray diffraction analysis shows that the cubic structure of Cu2O changes to monoclinic CuO with increasing O2 pressure. The results of Raman spectroscopy further confirmed the phase variations of copper-based oxide nanoparticles. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy confirmed the change in the binding energy in the oxidation state of nanoparticles. The optical band gap of the deposited Cu2O is 2.12 eV, while that of CuO is 1.79-1.82 eV. Keywords: vacuum arc, oxides, nanoparticles, plasma-chemical reactions.

For a safe environment, harmful-gas sensors of low cost and high performance are essential. For CO2 gas sensing applications, Ba-doped CuO thin films with 4 mol% and 6 mol% Ba were produced on glass substrates using the successive ionic layer adsorption and reaction approach. Utilizing various techniques, crystallographic structures, nanomorphologies, and elemental compositions were examined to assess the impact of doping on the characteristics of the films. According to the structural and morphological analyses, the nanocrystalline films consisted of irregularly shaped nanoparticles, which assembled to form a rough surface with unequal grain sizes. Because of its nanoporous nature, the CuO:6% Ba thin film exhibited the most substantial nanomorphological change and the highest gas sensing capability. At varied CO2 gas flow rates, the maximum sensor response (9.4%) and Rair/RCO2 ratio (1.12) at room temperature (RT = 30 °C) were observed at 100 SCCM. By optimizing the sensor’s operating temperature, the sensor response value reached 82.2% at 150 °C, which is approximately eight times the value at RT. Selectivity, reusability, repeatability, detection limit, and quantification limit were all tested. It shows excellent response and recovery times of 5.6 and 5.44 s. In comparison to prior literature, the improved sensor is suited for use in industrial applications.
