Search for efficient materials for application in the fields of optoelectronics and photovoltaics are some of the most active areas of research across the world. The potential of compounds such as K3Cu3P2 is not yet fully ...

The structural electronic, elastic, mechanical and optical properties of the ternary compounds K4ZnP2 and K4CdP2 have been studied by means of density functional theory (DFT) using the plane waves method. The generalized ...

A novel Cs2ScAgI6 double perovskite semiconductor material has been investigated on electronic, mechanical, elastic and optical properties using the plane wave self-consistent field method by using generalised gradient ...

Heat stress is a major limiting factor for crop productivity. Tomato is highly sensitive to heat stress, which can result in a total yield loss. To adapt to current and future heat stress, there is a dire need to develop ...

In response to the persistent challenges posed by fall armyworm (FAW) outbreaks in Rwanda’s maize production since 2017, this research introduces an innovative strategy integrating fuzzy logic and neural network methodologies, ...

The sequestration of heavy metals from multicomponent sorption media has become critical due to the noxious effects of heavy metals on the natural environment and subsequently on human health as well as all life forms. The ...

Recently, anthropogenic activities have evolved into sources of pollution, particularly when it comes to the discharge of harmful heavy metals into the natural environment. As a result, the concentration of diverse heavy ...

African animal trypanosomiasis (AAT) a parasitic disease of livestock in sub-Saharan Africa causing tremendous loses. Sub-Saharan continental estimation of mean prevalence in both large and small domestic animals, risk ...

International students have faced unique challenges during the COVID-19 Pandemic. This essay shares three stories from African women doctoral students who are scholarship recipients under the Regional Scholarship and ...

In this study, Zintl phased tetrapotassium diarsenidozincate K4ZnAs2 semiconductor compound was analysed using ab initio methods for structural, electronic, mechanical, elastic, and optical properties using six exchange ...
