چکیده

Size-dependent nanostructural transformations occurring during the H(2)-mediated reduction of hollow and porous NiO nanoparticles were investigated for controlled nanoparticle sizes of ~10 to 100 nm. Transmission electron microscopy reveals that the location and number of reduction sites strongly depend on the nanoparticle size and structure.

Influence of particle size on Magnetic behavior of nickel oxide nanoparticles

The influence of the particle size on magnetic behaviors of nickeloxide nanoparticles (NiO NPs) was reported. NiO NPs with a uniform particlesize were synthesized via a facile sol-gel method, and various sizes of NiO NPs(11, to 49 nm) were achieved by calcination at various temperatures (400, to 700°C). X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis revealed that increasing the calcinationtemperature increas...
