Abstract: Cu₂SnS₃ flower-like nanoparticles consisted of nanoflakes were successfully produced using solvothermal technique at 120°C for 12 h. The precursors used in this process were CuCl₂.2H₂O, SnCl₂.2H₂O, and thiourea with dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) as a solvent. The results showed that the as-obtained product was triclinic Cu₂SnS₃ with secondary phases CuS and SnS, and after annealing process, a pure triclinic was obtained. The crystal structure of the obtained samples was investigated by X-ray diffraction which assured the obtained data and the average crystallite size of as-prepared and annealed CTS was found to be 18.42 and 31.6 nm, respectively. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) showed that the surface morphology has the shape of flower like consisted of nanoflakes. The transmission electron microscope (TEM) displayed the formation of sheets. The band gap was measured using UV-Vis absorption spectroscopy and found that the as-prepared sample has 1.97 eV band gap, which obtained for various phases CuS and SnS. However, this band was changed to 1.26 eV upon the heat treatment at 500°C for 10 minutes. This value of E_g is comparable with the value reported by other literatures.

Abstract: Biopsy precious research has an important relationship with treatment efficiency and side effect complication. Most of the investigation is focus on the non-creatural material which is used to substitute creatural soft tissue for precious research. The aim of this paper is to develop a prescription that can be used for opaque and transparent PVA making which has similar mechanics property to the creatural tissue. The preparation, characteristics, and the results of PVA hydrogel on the composite material are studied as the key investigation. Porcine liver tissue property is also tested as a consultant for PVA material preparation. Comparing with the liver tissue test result, certain component ratio and freezing-thaw circle are determined. This PVA hydrogel material shows big potential in the creatural material substitution application. This research will benefit others who are interested in using non-creatural material to do experiment or surgical technology training.
