Electrochemical Synthesis of CeB6 Nanotubes

Size-controlled electrochemical synthesis and properties of SnO2 nanotubes.

SnO(2) nanotubes with controlled diameter and length were synthesized using an electrochemical method at room temperature. The length and wall thickness of the nanotubes increased monotonically with the deposition time and the diameter of the nanotubes was altered by varying the pore size of the scaffolds. Post-annealing at 400 degrees C in dry air significantly improved the crystallinity while...

Electrochemical Biosensing with Carbon Nanotubes

Carbon Nanotubes in Electrochemical Sensors

Nanoscale materials, defined as having at least one dimension less than 100 nm, have received steadily growing interest due to their unique properties and application potential. Typical examples include zero-dimensional nanoparticles, one-dimensional nanowires, and two-dimensional graphenes. Because of the quantum confinement of electrons in one or more dimensions, novel electrical, optical, an...

Synthesis and Electrochemical Lithium Storage Behavior of Carbon Nanotubes Filled with Iron Sulfide Nanoparticles

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) filled with iron sulfide nanoparticles (NPs) are prepared by inserting sulfur and ferrocene into the hollow core of CNTs followed by heat treatment. It is found that pyrrhotite-11T iron sulfide (Fe-S) NPs with an average size of ≈15 nm are encapsulated in the tubular cavity of the CNTs (Fe-S@CNTs), and each particle is a single crystal. When used as the anode material of...

Facile synthesis of nickel oxide nanotubes and their antibacterial, electrochemical and magnetic properties.

Nickel oxide nanotubes with great antibacterial activities, electrochemical capacitance, and magnetic properties have been synthesized through a precursor method with dimethylglyoxime as precipitant for the precursor, and the method has been developed for the synthesis of Ni/C nanorods.
