چکیده

Unusual morphologies of silica, gold and carbon were obtained by using ZnO nanostructures as templates. Microdrums and pencil-shaped ZnO nanostructures are successfully replicated into silica, gold and carbon analogues which are otherwise difficult to make.

Selective growth of metal particles on ZnO nanopyramids via a one-pot synthesis.

Hybrid nanostructures of metal (Cu, Au, Ag)-ZnO nanopyramids were synthesized. These hybrid nanostructures possess two distinct morphologies where the metal can be selectively attached to either the base or the tip of the ZnO pyramids. This is the first time that such morphologies are reported for Cu-ZnO and Ag-ZnO hybrid nanostructures.

Control of ZnO morphologies on carbon nanotube electrodes and electrocatalytic characteristics toward hydrazine.

We controlled the morphologies of zinc oxide (ZnO) nanostructures on single-walled carbon nanotube electrodes by an electrochemical deposition method and investigated the dependence of the electrocatalytic characteristics toward hydrazine on the different morphologies. ZnO nanorods provided high electrocatalytic activity with unique electrochemical behaviours, associated with the H(+) ion gener...

Fabrication of Semiconductor ZnO Nanostructures for Versatile SERS Application

Since the initial discovery of surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) in the 1970s, it has exhibited a huge potential application in many fields due to its outstanding advantages. Since the ultra-sensitive noble metallic nanostructures have increasingly exposed themselves as having some problems during application, semiconductors have been gradually exploited as one of the critical SERS subst...

Synthesis and Characterization of Silver and Gold Nano-Structures on Chitosan-Porous Anodic Alumina Nano-Composite

This study was designed to probe the fabrication of unique silver and gold nano-structures engaging a self-designed chitosan-porous anodic alumina nano-composite as a template. Porous anodic alumina has been manufactured by di-step aluminum anodization in an oxalic acid electrolytic bath. The surface properties of porous anodic alumina were reinforced by chitosan neutralized in sodium hydro...
