The pictured shows a electronic sensors made of tin oxide nanowires grown on gold nanoparticles in monocrystalline silicon substrate. The "electronic nose" sensors based on semiconductor oxides gases are an industrial reality, and the subject of many investigations regarding new materials and sensor technology, data processing, interpretation and validation of results. It is a non-destructive technique used to characterize odorants in various applications related to quality of life, such as food control, the quality of the environment, public safety or clinical diagnosis.

It is Er doped ZnO compound. It was produced by sol-gel method. ZnO is a wide-bandgap semiconductor. As can be seen from the figure, it has hexagonal structure. ZnO has several favorable properties, including good transparency, high electron mobility, wide bandgap strong room-temperature luminescence that used in various applications. And the properties that mentioned above can be improved by adding some kind of dopings Because of these reasons we have tried to produced Er doped ZnO in nanoscale.

Pictured are the atomic-resolution structures of three amyloid polymorphs against a (falsely coloured) background image of the fibrils taken with a transmission electron microscope. Determining the fibril structures, and defining the major structural elements and interactions contributing to their hierarchical self-assembly, provides insight into the formation of polymorphic amyloid in a range of protein deposition disorders including Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases.
