Composites of nanometre-sized copper core–copper oxide (Cu-Cu2O) shell with different diameters were synthesized by a facile one step co-solvent technique. By the analysis X-ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscope (TEM) data, resultant particles confirmed to be pure nanocrystalline in nature. The perfect core-shell structure Cu-Cu2O was using high resolution TEM. presence Cu ...

Complex electrical-conductivity experimental data sets for the interfacial amorphous phase in copper-core-copper-oxide-shell nanostructured composites have been analyzed using two Kohlrausch-related frequency response models recently developed for analysis of the dispersive electrical response of conductive materials. Such analysis has been carried out for both the precursor (herein referred to...

in this research controlled coating of magnetite (fe3o4) nanoparticles with sio2 was investigated. the fe3o4 nanoparticles were synthesized via chemical co-precipitation and then coated by silica according to stober method. effects of tetra ethyl ortho silicate (teos) concentration and ethanol to teos on the coating thickness were investigated. x-ray powder diffraction, fourier transform infrar...

We report a facile synthesis of a novel cobalt oxide (Co3O4) hierarchical nanostructure, in which crystalline core-amorphous shell Co3O4 nanoparticles with a bimodal size distribution are uniformly dispersed on ultrathin Co3O4 nanosheets. When tested as anode materials for lithium ion batteries, the as-prepared Co3O4 hierarchical electrodes delivered high lithium storage properties comparing to...

In this paper, Fe3 O4 @SiO2 core/shell magnetic nanostructure has been synthesized and modified by N-(2-aminoethyl)-3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane (AEAPTMS). Fe3 O4 @SiO2 was used as a novel adsorbent for separation of hexachloroplatinic acid. X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and FT-IR technique were used to characterize morphologies and surface texturing of these ads...

The stochastic formulation of multiexciton generation (MEG) rates is extended to provide access to MEG efficiencies in nanostructures containing thousands of atoms. The formalism is applied to a series of CdSe/CdS seeded nanorod heterostructures with different core and shell dimensions. At energies above 3Eg (where Eg is the band gap), the MEG yield increases with decreasing core size, as expec...

Here we report a magnetic composite nanocatalyst (MP@NiSiO/Pd) with a rattle type nanostructure. The nickel silicate shell encapsulated magnetic core (MP@NiSiO) rattle particles were synthesized by using a facile templating method and the Pd nanocrystals with different sizes can be directly immobilized onto the MP@NiSiO rattles without using any surfactant or capping reagents. X-Ray powder Diff...
