A Ce-Mn composite oxide possessing a rod-like morphology (with a fixed molar ratio of Ce/Mn=3:7) was synthesized through a hydrothermal method. Mn ions were doped into a CeO2 framework to replace Ce ions, thereby increasing the concentration of oxygen vacancies. The formation energies of O vacancies for the Ce-Mn composite oxide were calculated by applying density functional theory (DFT). The d...

New approaches for the engineering of 3D microstructure, pore modality, and chemical functionality hierarchically porous nanocarbon assemblies are key to develop next generation functional aerogel membrane materials. Here, interfacially driven assembly carbon nanotubes (CNT) is exploited fabricate structurally directed aerogels with highly controlled internal architectures, composed pseudo-mono...

This review compiles the most recent advances described in literature on the preparation of noble metal nanoparticles induced by biological entities. The use of different free or substituted carbohydrates, peptides, proteins, microorganisms or plants have been successfully applied as a new green concept in the development of innovative strategies to prepare these nanoparticles as different nano...
