Controllable Synthesis of Single-Crystalline CdO and Cd(OH)2Nanowires by a Simple Hydrothermal Approach
نویسندگان
چکیده
Single-crystalline Cd(OH)2 or CdO nanowires can be selectively synthesized at 150 °C by a simple hydrothermal method using aqueous Cd(NO3)2 as precursor. The method is biosafe, and compared to the conventional oil-water surfactant approach, more environmental-benign. As revealed by the XRD results, CdO or Cd(OH)2 nanowires can be generated in high purity by varying the time of synthesis. The results of FESEM and HRTEM analysis show that the CdO nanowires are formed in bundles. Over the CdO-nanowire bundles, photoluminescence at ~517 nm attributable to near band-edge emission of CdO was recorded. Based on the experimental results, a possible growth mechanism of the products is proposed.

Controllable Synthesis of Flower-Like ZnO Nanostructure with Hydrothermal Method (RESEARCH NOTE)
Flower-like ZnO nanostructures were synthesized by decomposing Zn(OH)2 in 1,4- butanediol at 105 °C for 36 h. Size of flower-like ZnO nanostructure can be controlled by pH of the aqueous solution. In the preparation of flower-like ZnO nanostructure, zinc nitrate was used as a precursor. The morphology and microstructure of flower-like ZnO nanostructure have been characterized by scanning electr...

Using Cd(NO(3))(2)·4H(2)O as a precursor and ethanol/water as the solvent, we synthesized Cd(5)(OH)(8)(NO(3))(2)(H(2)O)(2) nanowires and nanobelts through a simple solvothermal method. Unlike the conventional oil-water surfactant approach, the adopted method is biologically safe, simple and environmentally benign. The morphology and size of the obtained materials were studied by FESEM. The resu...
