چکیده

Aqueous based controlled decoration of platinum nanoparticles on plasma treated carbon nano-onions (CNOs) occurs within the shear flow generated by a vortex fluidic device (VFD), using ascorbic acid as the reducing agent, with the electrocatalytic potential of the resulting Pt-NPs@CNOs nano-composites demonstrated.

Production and Analysis of Clusters and Nanoparticles

Laser desorption mass spectrometry was used in the production and analysis of gas phase metal sulfur clusters. Clusters of gas phase aluminum, gallium, and indium sulfur were produced and analyzed using a time-of-flight mass spectrometer. Also, carbon nano-onions produced by an arc between graphite electrodes in water and the annealing of nanodiamonds were analyzed. The sulfur experiments were ...

Simulations of graphitic nanoparticles at air-water interfaces.

The free energy associated with transferring a set of fullerene particles through a finite water layer is calculated using explicit solvent molecular dynamic simulations. Each fullerene particle is a carbon network of one or more spheroidal shells of graphitic carbon, and include single-shell (single-wall) or nested multi-shelled (nano-onions) structures ranging from 6 to 28 Å in radius. Corres...

Electrodeposition of platinum nanoparticles on reduced graphene oxide as an efficient catalyst for oxygen reduction reaction

Reduced graphene oxide film was synthesized on a glassy carbon electrode by electro reduction of graphene oxide powders in aqueous solution. Then platinum nano particles were deposited on reduced graphene oxide film that was deposited on the glassy carbon electrode via electro reduction of platinum salt. The Physical morphology of the platinum on reduced graphene oxide film was evaluated by sca...

Synthesis and Characterization of Far-Red/NIR-Fluorescent BODIPY Dyes, Solid-State Fluorescence, and Application as Fluorescent Tags Attached to Carbon Nano-onions.

A series of π-extended distyryl-substituted boron dipyrromethene (BODIPY) derivatives with intense far-red/near-infrared (NIR) fluorescence was synthesized and characterized, with a view to enhance the dye's performance for fluorescence labeling. An enhanced brightness was achieved by the introduction of two methyl substituents in the meso positions on the phenyl group of the BODIPY molecule; t...
