Crystal plane-dependent gas-sensing performance of ZnO nanostructures toward ethanol has been investigated experimentally and theoretically through DFT simulation.
This study discusses the function of citrate ions in synthesis silver nanoplates through a synergetic reduction approach ambient conditions. It was found that can play multiple roles process, including reducing agent, stabilizer, and complex they show some unique features under reported The ability these shown to be weaker than sodium borohydride and/or l-ascorbic acid used same system. stability shape/size control particles is other surfactants tested present system, such as...
This study reports a facile and efficient one-step hydrothermal method for the synthesis of zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoflakes with exposed ZnO(101̅0) surfaces. The as-prepared exhibit excellent sensitivity, selectivity, stability toward volatile n-butanol gas at optimized operating temperature 330 °C. gas-sensing results further indicate that chemisorbed oxygen species on surfaces ZnO are dominated by O2– rather than O– ions molecular dynamics (MD) was also employed to understand underlying...
A facile solvothermal method has been developed for the synthesis of α-Fe<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>/ZnO nanocomposites that show enhanced sensitivity, selectivity and fast response–recovery toward<italic>n</italic>-butanol at a working temperature 225 °C.
This paper demonstrates a simple sensing method to detect inorganic anions by silver nanoplates (edge length of approximately 70 nm and thickness 2 nm) in aqueous solution. By this method, the solution system containing shows high sensitivity on order 1 x 10(-6) M detecting halides, phosphate, thiocyanate ions water at room temperature. The could be identified shift surface plasmon resonance (SPR) band UV-vis spectrum. selectivity such toward various was also studied, it found that...
Layered double hydroxides (LDHs) containing first-row transition metals such as Fe, Co, and Ni have attracted significant interest for electrocatalysis owing to their abundance excellent performance the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in alkaline media. Herein, assembly of holey iron-doped nickel-cobalt layered hydroxide (NiCo-LDH) nanosheets ('holey nanosheets') is demonstrated by employing uniform Ni-Co glycerate spheres self-templates. Iron doping was found increase rate hydrolysis induce...
This work reports the fabrication of bimetallic nickel–cobalt hydrogen phosphate with unique nanotube-assembled 1D and 2D architectures for electrocatalytic OER.
Green hydrogen bonded networks, which were conductive, healable, reshapable and eco-friendly, fabricated for circuit repair, wearable sensor flexible electronic devices.
Dual-phase transformation has been developed as a template-free surface patterning technique in this study. Ordered VO2 honeycomb structures with complex hierarchy have fabricated via method, and the microstructures of obtained VO2(M) coatings are tunable by tailoring pertinent variables. The honeycomb-structured excellent visible light transmittance at 700 nm (Tvis) up to 95.4% decent solar modulating ability (ΔTsol) 5.5%, creating potential ultratransparent smart coatings. Its performance...
Self-deconstruction/reconstruction strategy for fabricating 2-D mesoporous mixed oxide nanosheets is described.
Se@CdSe nanocables and CdSe nanotubes with diameters of around 50 nm (see Figure) can be directly synthesized via a template‐ engaged approach in aqueous solution. The walls these are composed nanoparticles 5–10 size. It is believed this potentially extended to process many other chalcogenides into tubular nanostructures.
Silver-gold (Ag-Au) bimetallic nanowires were controllably synthesized by a newly developed wet-chemical method at room temperature. The Ag and Au nanoparticles sequentially formed reduction with vanadium oxide (V2O3) so as to form Ag-Au bimetal, in which the show diameter of ~20 nm length up 10 μm. A few unique features noted our new approach: it was rapid (within minutes), controllable shape size, reproducible, there no need for any surface modifiers. formation growth mechanisms these...
A 3D macroporous honeycomb-like ZnO/ZnCo<sub>2</sub>O<sub>4</sub> hybrid for CO sensing is reported.
This work reports a newly developed synthesis method, i.e., self-seeding coreduction for shape control of silver nanoparticles such as triangular nanoplates and circular nanodiscs. By this high surface-to-volume (∼2.3 nm in thickness) were successfully generated. The distinct advantages method include no need to add external seeds, use organic solvents that are environmentally unfriendly, being able perform at room temperature, synergetic few reducing agents better growth two-dimensional...
