چکیده
This communication presents a novel kind of silicon nanomaterial: freestanding Si nanowire arrays (Si NWAs), which are synthesized facilely by one-step template-free electro-deoxidation of SiO2 in molten CaCl2. The self-assembling growth process of this material is also investigated preliminarily.

Electro-Synthesis of Cu-Nb Nanocomposites; Toward Novel Alloying of Immiscible Bimetals
Immiscible metals due to their inherent specs are insoluble over the steady state. Developing an innovative approach to this issue would be fascinating and challenge the overriding rules. Herein, we proffer the principles of synthesis of Cu-Nb nanocomposites using electrochemical deoxidation route. This method consists of the cathodic electrolysis of the nanoparticles Cu-Nb2O5 through the...
متن کاملRole of gel aging in template-free synthesis of micro and nano-crystalline sodalites
A facile effective stirring aging at room temperature prior to conventional hydrothermal treatment was employed in the template-free synthesis of micro- and nano-crystalline sodalites with two different initial gel compositions. The effect of initial Si/Al molar ratio, NaOH concentration and stirring aging time were investigated on the morphology and particle size of the...
متن کاملLow temperature synthesis of CaZrO3 nanoceramics from CaCl2–NaCl molten eutectic salt
CaZrO3 nanoceramics were successfully synthesized at 700 C using the molten salt method, and the effects of processing parameters, such as temperature, holding time, and amount of salt on the crystallization of CaZrO3 were investigated. CaCl2, Na2CO3, and nano-ZrO2 were used as starting materials. On heating, CaCl2–NaCl molten eutectic salt provided a liquid medium for the reaction of CaCO3 an...
متن کاملSelf-Organized Freestanding One-Dimensional Au Nanoparticle Arrays.
One-dimensional Au nanoparticle arrays encapsulated within freestanding SiO2 nanowires are fabricated by thermal oxidation of Au-coated Si nanowires with controlled diameter and surface modulation. The nanoparticle diameter is determined by the Si nanowire diameter and Au film thickness, while the interparticle spacing is independently controlled by the Si nanowire modulation. The optical absor...

Abstract: composition of MgO and nano boehmite. The reactant and potassium chloride, as the reaction media, were fired at800-1000 °C at different dwell times (0.5-5 h) in the ambient atmosphere. After washing and filtration, the spinel nanopowder was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) techniques. It was demonstrated tha...
