Abstract

Titanium dioxide (TiO2) has been considered as one of the most promising photocatalysts for photoelectrochemical (PEC) water splitting. Therefore, numerous efforts have been devoted to improving its PEC water splitting performance. In this study, TiO2 nanorod/nanoflower (NRF) films with controlled morphology were synthesized on fluorine-doped tin oxide (FTO) glass substrates by following a facile one-step hydrothermal method. The TiO2 NRF films were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman spectroscopy, field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), atomic force microscopy (AFM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectrometer (EDS), and ultraviolet-visible (UV-Vis) spectrophotometer. FE-SEM showed that the TiO2 films are composed of a simultaneous growth of a primary layer of TiO2 nanorod arrays (NRAs) and a second layer of TiO2 nanoflowers (NFs). The proposed growth mechanism highlighted the influence of precursor concentration on nucleation sites, affecting the preferred crystallographic plane growth of rutile TiO2 and nanorod alignment on the FTO substrate. Intriguingly, TiO2 NRF films prepared with 1.0 mL of titanium butoxide exhibited a maximum photocurrent density of 3.58 mA.cm−2 at 1.23 V versus (vs.) the reversible hydrogen electrode (RHE), along with a maximum photoconversion efficiency of 0.69%. The enhanced photocurrent density and photoconversion efficiency were attributed to the optimum thickness in the range of 4.52-7.31 µm, which caused the film to be formed with a unique morphology of the primary layer with well-vertically aligned nanorods and the second layer of flowers consisting of numerous rods stacked on top of one another. This study demonstrates the importance of designing semiconductors with 1D nanorod/3D nanoflower structures as high-performance photoelectrodes for PEC water splitting.

Abstract

Islamic boarding schools are Islamic educational institutions in Indonesia that are unique among other educational institutions and have a strong religious habitus. This research aims to find out what the religious habitus of Islamic boarding schools looks like and what the construction process of religious habitus is in the Al-Islam Islamic boarding school in Ponorogo, East Java. Qualitative methods were used in this research, including observation, interview, and documentation techniques, as tools for collecting data. This research shows that the habitus characteristics of the Al-Islam Islamic boarding school include three aspects. Firstly, hysteresis lasts long and is not easily changed; it is difficult to change once formed. Secondly, transposability can be inherited and can be learned. Thirdly, it is a generator that encourages the growth of new social practices. The construction of the habitus of the Al-Islam Islamic boarding school at the beginning of its establishment went through a long dialectical process by the founders of the Islamic boarding school. Then, it was instilled in the students in various ways, including in the curriculum, role models from Kyai (the head of Islamic boarding schools), and instilling the Islamic boarding school’s philosophy of the five souls. The results of this research can contribute to strengthening religious habitus in Islamic boarding schools as religious education institutions regarding the importance of role models and a conducive environment in forming the religious habitus of students.

Abstract

This study was carried out with the intention of discovering the minimalist lifestyle of members of the Liyfe With Less Community in their everyday activities and their efforts to protect the environment. The research approach utilized is netnography, which involves examining the culture of a specific group or community virtually by leveraging information gathered through digital platforms. Data gathering was conducted through netnographic observation, interviews, and documentation, while data analysis employed Max Weber's social action theory. The findings of the study indicate that members of the Lyfe With Less Community practice a minimalist lifestyle through decluttering, utilizing items until they are finished or worn out, making thoughtful consumption choices, and opting for products made from eco-friendly materials. A minimalist approach positively influences the environment. First, it decreases waste generation by adopting mindful consumption habits. Second, it fosters a sustainable lifestyle through the use of eco-friendly products. Third, it minimizes the carbon footprint by embracing the principle of living "just enough. Fourth, it encourages the shift from a linear economy to a circular economy, which emphasizes the use of sustainable and environmentally considerate materials.

Abstract

We fabricated a ZnO nanostructures based TFT on plastic substrate by solution method under low temperature. ZnO nanostructures were prepared by zinc nitrate hexahydrate, and hexamethylenetetramine. The device shows hard saturation characteristics and exhibits a high off-resistance. The output characteristics devices also shows current saturation and pinch off behavior, in which the high of current saturation obtained 266 mA at VGS = 40 V and VDS = 42.5 V. The pH response on the electrical properties was also studied. It was found that the threshold voltage shifted from 10.21 V to 13 V as pH solution gradually increased. The Ion/Ioff for as grown TFTs and TFTs with pH response of 10.21 shifted from 1.86 x 105 to 7.03 x 106 at VDS = 20 V. The obtained sensitivity of devices was 1.05 V/pH.
