"Dirty nanostructures": aerosol-assisted synthesis of temperature stable mesoporous metal oxide semiconductor spheres comprising hierarchically assembled zinc oxide nanocrystals controlled via impurities.
Structural disintegration or the loss of accessible surfaces of functional nanostructures due to processes involving mass transport (e.g. sintering) is a serious problem for any application of these materials at elevated temperatures, like in heterogeneous catalysis or chemical sensing. Phases with low sintering temperatures, e.g. some metals or metal oxides like zinc oxide (ZnO), are very sens...
متن کاملFacet-selective epitaxial growth of heterogeneous nanostructures of semiconductor and metal: ZnO nanorods on Ag nanocrystals.
We demonstrate a new approach for synthesizing Ag-ZnO heterogeneous nanostructures in which single-crystalline ZnO nanorods were selectively grown on {111} rather than {100} facets of single-crystalline Ag truncated nanocubes. We have identified the fine structure of the Ag-ZnO heterostructures and proposed a mechanism indicating that structure match plays a critically important role in this ty...
متن کاملSol-gel Synthesis of ZnO Nanoparticles and ZnO-TiO2-SiO2 Nanocomposites and Their Photo-catalyst Investigation in Methylene Blue Degradation
In this work firstly ZnO nanoparticles were synthesized via a simple precipitation method. At the second step titanium dioxide and silicon dioxide shell were synthesized on the core. For preparation ZnO-TiO2-SiO2 the sol product was calcinated at 500 ºC for 2h. Properties of the product were examined by X-raydiffraction pattern (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM) and Fourier transform inf...
متن کاملMicrowave-assisted Synthesis of MgFe2O4-ZnO Nanocomposite and Its Photo-catalyst Investigation in Methyl Orange Degradation
In this work firstly MgFe2O4 nanoparticles were synthesized via a microwave-assisted method. The product was calcinated at 900 ºC for 2h. At the second step zinc oxide shell was synthesized on the ferrite under ultrasonic waves. Properties of the product were examined by X-ray diffraction pattern (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM) and Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy. Vibr...
متن کاملSurface Polarity and Shape-Controlled Synthesis of ZnO Nanostructures on GaN Thin Films Based on Catalyst-Free Metalorganic Vapor Phase Epitaxy
With the rapid developments in nanotechnology, there has been tremendous interest in ZnO-related nanomaterials because ZnO is a wide band-gap semiconductor and a piezoelectric oxide. As a result, it is useful for optoelectronics, transparent electronics, sensors, and transducers. ZnO crystals have a noncentral symmetric wurtzite structure and are composed of close packed O and Zn2þ layers piled...
