Influence of Nano Powder Mixed Dielectric Fluid on Surface Finish in Micro Electro Discharge Machining of Zirconia
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Background: Powder mixed dielectric fluid is being used recently to cut difficult to cut ceramic materials such as aluminium oxide (Al2O3) and zirconium oxide (ZrO2) where process development and optimization are found to be critical issues. Object: This paper investigates and compares the average surface roughness (Ra) in micro electrical discharg

Quality of Polarization Entanglement in Spontaneous Parametric Down Conversion
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

We experimentally demonstrated a high degree of polarization entanglement known as entanglement visibility through spontaneous parametric down conversion process pumped by a femtosecond laser. The entangled-photon pair was obtained using two type-I BBO crystal. The down-converted photons from these crystals demonstrates a high visibility of 98.7% (

Heating or Cooling: Temperature Effects on the Synthesis of Atomically Precise Gold Nanoclusters
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Developing an efficient, well-controlled synthesis strategy for gold nanoclusters (Au NCs) is crucial for delivering their expected applications in many fields; and such development requires fundamental understandings on the synthetic chemistry. The synthesis of Au NCs typically consists of a pair of reversible reactions: a fast reduction-growth re

Teachers’ Challenges in Teaching and Learning for Higher Order Thinking Skills (Hots) in Primary School
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Malaysian Education Blueprint 2013-2025 aspires to develop Malaysian students who are able to master higher order thinking skills (HOTS) including critical thinking, reasoning, creative thinking, and innovation. The achievement in this area is discouraging, that is, research findings indicated that majority of students were not able to transfer the

New Recourse to Flood Victims in Malaysia: a Proposal on Permanent Waqf Flood Evacuation Centre
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

A flood phenomena in Malaysia is considered as a yearly event that most of the time hit the east coast area of Malaysia (Kelantan, Terengganu, and Pahang). It is also understood that when the flood happen, government would spent certain amount of money to cover damages and losses because of the flood. As the flood may affect the society on the whol

Protecting the Children’s Right to Nationality in Malaysia: an Appraisal
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Article 7 of the Convention on the Rights of the Child 1989 (CRC) obliges states to realise every child‘s right to acquire a nationality. Even though most human rights should be enjoyed by all persons, regardless of whether they have a nationality or not, in our modern world, nationality often operates as a legal or practical gateway to the enjoy

The Income and Demographic Determinants of Physical Activity Intensity: Evidence from a Developing Country
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Estimating the factors affecting participation decisions of physical activity has continuously received significant research attention. However, the effects of income and demographic factors on physical activity intensity have seldom been studied thoroughly, especially in developing countries. To fill this research gap, the income and demographic d

Physicochemical Characteristics of Magnesium Hydroxyapatite (Mgha) Derived via Wet Precipitation Method
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Hydroxyapatite (HA) has been known for so many decades as an implant material for medical applications due to its chemical composition that is very similar to the inorganic component of human bone. However, synthetic HA possesses relatively low mechanical strength characteristic, making it less suitable to be used in load bearing applications. Thus

Malaysia Healthcare System = Malezya Saglik Sistemi
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Malaysia is an upper middle-income country that enjoys political and economic stability. Malaysian population is young, growing or ageing. In recent years, the life expectancy at birth is 73 years. Malaysia has fostered various collaborations and partnerships with international associations, such as the WHO, Association of Southeast Asian Nations (

Nose to Brain Drug Delivery: a Recent Update
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Drugs used to treat brain or central nervous system disorder suffer from shortfall of absorption and reaching brain due to blood brain barrier and cerebro spinal fluid barrier. Intra nasal administration of brain targeted drug delivery system is gaining popularity to circumvent blood brain barrier and enhance drug availability in brain. It also sho
