Redox Behavior of Nanostructured Molybdenum Oxide-Mesoporous Silica Hybrid Materials

Encapsulation of molybdenum oxide MoO3 into ordered mesoporous silica materials is demonstrated using different synthetic routes. Either supramolecular polyoxometalates of the “Müller type” or Na2MoO4 were used as precursors. Molybdenum oxide (MoO3)-silica hybrid materials were characterized using nitrogen-sorption experiments, transmission electron microscopy, small-angle X-ray scattering, and...

Functional Nanostructured Molecular Materials

The Electrochemical Society Interface • Fall 2001 here has been tremendous recent interest in the design and assembly of porous nanostructured materials.1 Synthetic approaches range from coordination-polymer formation to surfactant-templated alumino-silicate growth to semiconductor nanoparticle aggregation, while functions include chemical catalysis, chemical sensing, energy storage, and energy...

Nanostructured Materials, and Nanodevices

Nanostructured materials for photon detection.

The detection of photons underpins imaging, spectroscopy, fibre-optic communications and time-gated distance measurements. Nanostructured materials are attractive for detection applications because they can be integrated with conventional silicon electronics and flexible, large-area substrates, and can be processed from the solution phase using established techniques such as spin casting, spray...
