Emission of greenhouse gases and infectious diseases caused by improper agro-waste disposal has gained significant attention in recent years. To overcome these hurdles, agro-waste can be valorized into valuable bioactive compounds that act as reducing or stabilizing agents in the synthesis of nanomaterials. Herein, we report a simple circular appro...

Advanced packaging solutions require insulation and passivation materials with exceptional properties which can also fulfill the reliability needs of electronics devices such as MEMS, sensors or power modules. Since bonding (cohesive/adhesive) properties of packaging coatings are very important for reliable functioning of electronics devices, the b...

Regardless of the technology, additive or subtractive, the miniaturization trend is constantly pushing for smaller resolutions. The rise of global challenges in material availability, fabrication in three dimensions (3D), design flexibility and rapid prototyping have pushed additive manufacturing (AM) into the spotlight. Addressing the miniaturizat...

Grain size and porosity are two of the key parameters which are strongly affecting and dictating the sensitivity of tin oxide and gas sensors in general. Grain size and porosity are dependent on the firing temperature profile and in this study the emphasis is on investigation of grain size dependence on the sintering temperature. It is well known t...

This research is focused on structural and electrical characterisation of tin oxide (SnO2) applied as a thick film and investigation of its properties as gas sensitive material. Micron sized SnO2 powder was milled in an agate mill for six hours to fabricate SnO2 nanopowder, which was afterwards sieved by 325 mesh sieve and characterized by XRD and...

Surface acoustic wave (SAW) temperature sensor devices have been developed for operating temperatures up to and above 1000 °C. A challenging task to make these devices available on the market is to develop an appropriate housing concept. A concept based on low-temperature cofired ceramics (LTCC) has been investigated and tested under elevated tempe...

If the material is being sintered, grain size of its particles will depend on the sintering temperature, time of the sintering and the pressure applied on the material while sintering. It is well known that on the lower sintering temperatures grain size of the nano material is relatively small and thus the active area is large. Due to the low sinte...
