Fabrication of two-dimensional staggered silver nanosheets on an aluminium foil
نویسندگان
چکیده
Two-dimensional staggered silver nanosheets (NSs) immobilized on a flat aluminium foil have been synthesized by keeping the underside surface of the foil in contact with the solution of normal silver mirror reaction. The NSs are hundreds of nanometres to several micrometres in dimensions and tens of nanometres in thickness. The effects of the aluminium foil, a chemically active substrate, on the orientation growth of silver nanosheets has been revealed. The results demonstrated that the growth and the morphology control of the silver nanostructure were simply realized in one process by the introduction of a chemically active substrate.

Fabrication of single-layer MS2 (M=Mo, W) nanosheets using Li battery setup
Lithium intercalation is a convenient method to prepare few-layer and single-layer MS2 (M=Mo, W) nanosheets. This method is, however, very time-consuming (few days) and it is difficult to control the reaction parameters. To overcome these drawbacks, we have proposed a method to use an Li battery set-up to significantly reduce the reaction time (few hours) and electrochemically intercalate lithi...

Two dimensional silver(I) coordination polymer, [Ag(μ5-T4S)]n (1), (T4S- = toluene-4-sulfonate), has been synthesized and characterized by Inductively Coupled Plasma (ICP) and elemental analyses, IR spectroscopy and powder X-ray diffraction. This compound was calcined at 450, 500 and 700 °C in a furnace and static atmosphere of air. The resultin...
متن کاملFoil assisted replica molding for fabrication of microfluidic devices and their application in vitro.
We present a simple, rapid, benchtop, Foil Assisted Rapid Molding (FARM) method for the fabrication of microfluidic devices. This novel technique involves the use of aluminium foil, pen and an X-Y plotter to create semi-circular or plano-concave, shallow microchannels. It is an easy do-it-yourself (DIY) technique for creating a microfluidic device in three simple steps: (1) create a channel des...
متن کاملSimple, low cost MHz-order acoustomicrofluidics using aluminium foil electrodes.
It is now possible to circumvent costly and complex cleanroom fabrication procedures to produce MHz-order acoustically-driven microfluidic platforms through the use of electrode strips cut simply from kitchen aluminium foil and pressed against piezoelectric substrates. Cleanroom deposition, lithographic patterning, and etching are entirely avoided in favor of this cut-and-place technique, which...
متن کاملChanges in crystallographic orientation of thin foils of palladium and palladium alloys after the absorption of hydrogen
The adsorption/absorption of hydrogen at room temperature by palladium, 16% silver-palladium and 5% ruthenium-palladium foils was studied using thermal desorption spectroscopy. Hydrogen readily diffused in the palladium and desorbed as one broad peak at about 650 K. Hydrogen also diffuses in the 16% silver-palladium foil and in the 5% rutheniumpalladium foil but with a smaller diffusion constan...
