چکیده

A facile and template-free reverse micelle-based method can be employed to synthesize highly crystalline and pure stoichiometric bismuth titanate (Bi(2)Ti(2)O(7)) pyrochlore nanorods 400-500 nm long and 40-50 nm in diameter which demonstrate promising photoactivity.

Investigation the Effect of Niobium Oxide Additive on the Dielectric Properties of Bismuth Titanate

Bismuth titanate ceramic has been attracted as a lead-free ferroelectric due to its high Curie temperature in high temperature applications as well as high frequency applications. In this study, the effect of niobium oxide as an additive on the microstructure and dielectric properties of bismuth titanate ceramic was investigated. For this purpose, niobium oxide was added to bismuth titanate, sy...

Microwave-assisted rapid synthesis of Co3O4 nanorods from CoC2O4.2H2O nanorods and its application in photocatalytic degradation of methylene blue under visible light irradiation

In this work, Co3O4 nanorods were successfully prepared by microwave-assisted solid state decomposition of rod-like CoC2O4.2H2O precursor within a very short reaction time (6 min) without the use of a solvent/surfactant and complicated equipment. The as-obtained Co3O4 nanorods were fully characterized by X-ray diffract...

Facile synthesis of V(4+) self-doped, [010] oriented BiVO4 nanorods with highly efficient visible light-induced photocatalytic activity.

Monodispersed monoclinic BiVO4 nanorods grown along the [010] direction were prepared using a one-step low temperature hydrothermal method in the presence of the low-cost, nontoxic sodium oleate serving as a chelating agent. The BiVO4 nanorods with diameters of 15-20 nm possess a huge specific surface area as large as 28.2 m(2) g(-1), which can endow them with high photocatalytic activity and s...

Efficient Sunlight-Induced Methylene Blue Removal over One-Dimensional Mesoporous Monoclinic BiVO4 Nanorods

Sunlight-driven mesoporous BiVO(4) nanorods with monoclinic structure have been successfully synthesized via a simple hydrothermal method. The as-prepared one-dimensional BiVO(4) nanorods exhibited high specific surface area due to their unique mesoporous structure. The mesoporous BiVO(4) nanorods possessed strong photoabsorption properties in the visible light region as well as the ultravisibl...
