Sonochemical Green Method for Preparation of Mg-Doped ZnO Nanostructures in Water with Enhanced Photocatalytic Activity
In this work, Mg-doped ZnO nanostructures were prepared in water under ultrasonic irradiation for 60 min without using any organic compounds or post preparation treatments. The prepared samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), energy dispersive analysis of X-ray (EDX), diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (DRS...
متن کاملIn situ growth of Au nanocrystals on graphene oxide sheets.
Au nanocrystals (AuNCs) with a size of 10-20 nm decorated on graphene oxide (GO) were fabricated successfully through a hydrothermal reduction and crystallization route without any extra reductants and capping agents. The hydrophobic areas of GO benefit the formation of nanocrystals (NCs) with {111} facets totally exposed; however, the hydrophilic areas are detrimental to the crystallization. T...
متن کاملGraphitic Carbon Nitride/Reduced Graphene Oxide/Silver Oxide Nanostructures with Enhanced Photocatalytic Activity in Visible Light
Visible light active graphitic carbon nitride/reduced graphene oxide/silver oxide nanocomposites with a p-n heterojunction structure were synthesized by chemical deposition methods. Prepared samples were characterized by different physico-chemical technics such as XRD, FTIR, SEM, TEM and DRS. Photocatalytic activity investigated by analyzing the Acid blue 92 (AB92) concentration during the time...
متن کاملPlasmonic Ge-doped ZnO nanocrystals.
We present the first colloidal synthesis of Ge-doped ZnO nanocrystals, which are produced by a scalable method that uses only air and moisture stable precursors. The incorporation of tetravalent Ge ions within ZnO nanocrystals generates a surface plasmon resonance in the near-mid infrared, and induces a change in morphology, from isotropic spheroidal nanocrystals to rod-like, elongated structur...
متن کاملNew insight into the enhanced visible light photocatalytic activity over boron-doped reduced graphene oxide.
Boron-doped reduced graphene oxide (B-RGO) synthesized by a facile one-step reflux route is able to exhibit significantly higher photocatalytic activity than non-doped RGO under visible light irradiation. New insights accounting for this photocatalytic activity improvement are discussed, which is distinctly different from the case of B-RGO nanoribbons under UV light irradiation.
