چکیده

the atmospheric pressure chemical vapor synthesis (apcvs) route is a process that can be used for the synthesis of doped-nanocrystalline powders with very small crystallite sizes having a narrow particle size distribution and high purity. in this study, apcvs technique was used to prepare boron-doped titania nanopowders. the effects of temperature, borate flow rate and water flow rate on the amount of doped boron were studied. the resultant powders were characterized by inductively coupled plasma (icp), x-ray diffraction (xrd), nitrogen adsorption technique (bet), uv-visible drs spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy (sem), and transmission electron microscopy (tem). the optimum boron precursor flow rate was 80 sccm. the highest amount of doped boron was attained when water flow rate was 900 sccm. in comparison to the pristine tio2, the boron-doped tio2 nanoparticles showed blue-shift in band-gap energy of the samples.

Atmospheric pressure chemical vapour deposition of boron doped titanium dioxide for photocatalytic water reduction and oxidation.

Boron-doped titanium dioxide (B-TiO2) films were deposited by atmospheric pressure chemical vapour deposition of titanium(iv) chloride, ethyl acetate and tri-isopropyl borate on steel and fluorine-doped-tin oxide substrates at 500, 550 and 600 °C, respectively. The films were characterised using powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), which showed anatase phase TiO2 at lower deposition temperatures (5...

Large-Scale Fabrication of Boron Nitride Nanotubes via a Facile Chemical Vapor Reaction Route and Their Cathodoluminescence Properties

Cylinder- and bamboo-shaped boron nitride nanotubes (BNNTs) have been synthesized in large scale via a facile chemical vapor reaction route using ammonia borane as a precursor. The structure and chemical composition of the as-synthesized BNNTs are extensively characterized by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy, and selected-area ele...

Facile synthesis of spiny mesoporous titania tubes with enhanced photocatalytic activity.

We demonstrate here for the first time an original and facile approach to synthesizing a novel TiO(2) tube with a spiny mesoporous wall. The photocatalytic activity of the spiny mesoporous tube was greatly enhanced owing to the superior light reflecting ability of the tubular structure as well as the crosslinked spiny nanosheets.

Structural formation and photocatalytic activity of magnetron sputtered titania and doped-titania coatings.

Titania and doped-titania coatings can be deposited by a wide range of techniques; this paper will concentrate on magnetron sputtering techniques, including "conventional" reactive co-sputtering from multiple metal targets and the recently introduced high power impulse magnetron sputtering (HiPIMS). The latter has been shown to deliver a relatively low thermal flux to the substrate, whilst stil...

Continuous growth of hexagonal graphene and boron nitride in-plane heterostructures by atmospheric pressure chemical vapor deposition.

Graphene-boron nitride monolayer heterostructures contain adjacent electrically active and insulating regions in a continuous, single-atom thick layer. To date structures were grown at low pressure, resulting in irregular shapes and edge direction, so studies of the graphene-boron nitride interface were restricted to the microscopy of nanodomains. Here we report templated growth of single cryst...
