Synthesis of CdS nanoparticles based on DNA network templates

CdS nanoparticles have been successfully synthesized by using DNA networks as templates. The synthesis was carried out by first dropping a mixture of cadmium acetate and DNA on a mica surface for the formation of the DNA network template and then transferring the sample into a heated thiourea solution. The Cd(2+) reacted with thiourea at high temperature and formed CdS nanoparticles on the DNA network template. UV-vis spectroscopy, photoluminescence, x-ray diffraction and atomic force microscopy (AFM) were used to characterize the CdS nanoparticles in detail. AFM results showed that the resulted CdS nanoparticles were directly aligned on the DNA network templates and that the synthesis and assembly of CdS nanoparticles was realized in one step. CdS nanoparticles fabricated with this method were smaller than those directly synthesized in a thiourea solution and were uniformly aligned on the DNA networks. By adjusting the density of the DNA networks and the concentration of Cd(2+), the size and density of the CdS nanoparticles could be effectively controlled and CdS nanoparticles could grow along the DNA chains into nanowires. The possible growth mechanism has also been discussed in detail.     

Synthesis and optical properties of CdS nanowires by a simple chemical deposition

CdS nanowires were prepared by a paired cell method, using highly ordered porous anodic alumina (PAA) membranes as templates. The morphology, structure, and composition of these nanowires were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), and selected area electron diffraction (SAED) pattern. SEM images indicated that nanowires arrays are highly ordered and coincide with the contours of PAA. The EDS analysis, combined with HRTEM images and SEAD patterns, confirmed the formation of CdS. The formation and growth mechanism of CdS nanowires, as well as the optical properties, were also analyzed in details. The results indicated that the formation and growth of CdS nanowires experience from initial nuclei, nanoparticles, linear pearl-chain structures to final nanowires, attributed to electrostatic adsorption and ions diffusion. A strong emission with a maximum around 430 nm was observed from the synthesized CdS nanowires, which was attributed to the recombination of trapped electron/hole pairs. The absorption edge in UV–Vis spectrum of CdS/PAA nanoarrays showed a blue shift due to the quantum confinement effects. The technique can be used to fabricate other compound nanowires and newly light-emitting semiconductor materials.

Sonochemical synthesis of CdS and CdSe nanowires

A convenient sonochemical route was developed to fabricate one-dimensional (1D) CdS or CdSe assemblies via a simple template method with two-steps: Firstly, the colloid one dimensional cadmium hydroxide particles were prepared as templates under sonication; then, the colloid particles were converted into 1D CdS or CdSe assemblies via a replacement reaction after the surface nucleation and crystal growth processes. The as-prepared CdS and CdSe nanowires were characterized by XRD, TEM, XPS, and UV-visible Spectroscopy. The effects of the ultrasonic irradiation were discussed. It is believed that the ultrasound irradiation played a positive role in both the assembly of the colloid cadmium hydroxide particles into the 1D structure and the growth of CdSe and CdS nanowires. The effects of pH on the morphologies of the cadmium hydroxide template were also discussed. The band gaps of the as-prepared 1D CdSe and CdS assemblies were calculated to be 3.1 eV and 4.9 eV, respectively, indicating the quantum size effect. The as-prepared products might have potential applications in nanodevices in future.     

Writing and Functionalisation of Suspended DNA Nanowires on Superhydrophobic Pillar Arrays

Nanowire arrays and networks with precisely controlled patterns are very interesting for innovative device concepts in mesoscopic physics. In particular, DNA templates have proven to be versatile for the fabrication of complex structures that obtained functionality via combinations with other materials, for example by functionalisation with molecules or nanoparticles, or by coating with metals. Here, the controlled motion of the a three‐phase contact line (TCL) of DNA‐loaded drops on superhydrophobic substrates is used to fabricate suspended nanowire arrays. In particular, the deposition of DNA wires is imaged in situ, and different patterns are obtained on hexagonal pillar arrays by controlling the TCL velocity and direction. Robust conductive wires and networks are achieved by coating the wires with a thin layer of gold, and as proof of concept conductivity measurements are performed on single suspended wires. The plastic material of the superhydrophobic pillars ensures electrical isolation from the substrate. The more general versatility of these suspended nanowire networks as functional templates is outlined by fabricating hybrid organic–metal–semiconductor nanowires by growing ZnO nanocrystals onto the metal‐coated nanowires.     

Conformational behavior of DNA-templated CdS inorganic nanowire

We describe the conformational behavior and morphological control of DNA-mineralized CdS nanowires in a bulk solution. The conformational behavior of individual double-stranded DNA in the presence of cadmium ions and stoichiometric mixtures of cadmium ions and sulfide ions was directly visualized by fluorescence microscopy. It was found that in the presence of mixtures of cadmium ions and sulfide ions, DNA molecules exhibit a conformational transition from an elongated coil to a compacted state. Mineralized DNA nanowires possess a significant conformational freedom at a microscale, and flexibility in the micro- and nanodimensions. The density of the inorganic material on the nanowire can be controlled by varying the concentrations and the molar ratio of Na(2)S to Cd(ClO(4))(2).     

Solvothermal route to CdS nanocrystals

We developed a facile solvothermal route to various CdS nanocrystals in diethylenetriamine. Well-crystalline CdS nanowires and flower-like CdS nanocrystals were obtained at temperatures 220°C and 200°C, respectively. The nanowires have smooth surfaces and are grown along polar [0?0?0?1] direction. The flower-like CdS nanocrystals have hierarchical architectures composed of fine nanowires with lengths up to 10?µm. The effects of temperature on the morphology and structure of the final products are also investigated. The experimental observations indicates that high temperature facilitates fabricate CdS nanocrystals with regular morphology and excellent crystallisation. Moreover, it is found that organic solvent diethylenetriamine plays an important role in the growth of CdS nanocrystals. Diethylenetriamine can bind Cd²⁺ ions to form intermediate complex, resulting in final CdS nanocrystals with regular morphologies.     

Helix-coiled gold nanowires for molecular sensing

Helix-coiled gold nanowires were fabricated by a templating route using unique composite templates consisting of anodic aluminum oxide (AAO) nanotubular membrane and confined mesoporous silica therein. A different degree of confinement energy induces a different degree of helix curvature of confined porous silica nanochannels in an AAO, which works as a hard template for the electrochemical deposition of gold, thereby rationally enabling a different degree of helix curvature of gold nano-replicas. From surface-enhanced Raman scattering experiments, we first found that helix-coiled gold nanowires show more distinctly enhanced molecule sensing efficiency than those from simple smooth gold nanowires, and gold nanowires with the narrower lateral width show more enhanced molecule sensing efficiency than those of thicker width helix nanowires.     

Dependence of photovoltaic performance of solvothermally prepared CdS/CdTe solar cells on morphology and thickness of window and absorber layers

In the present work a new strategy for straightforward fabrication of CdS/CdTe solar cells, containing CdS nanowires and nanoparticles as a window layer and CdTe nanoparticles and microparticles as an absorber layer, are reported. CdS and CdTe nanostructures were synthesized by solvothermal method. X-ray diffraction analysis revealed that highly pure and crystallized CdS nanowires and nanoparticles with hexagonal structure and CdTe nanoparticles with cubic structure were obtained. Atomic force microscope and field emission scanning electron microscope images showed that CdS nanowires with length of several μm and average diameter of 35 nm, CdS nanoparticles with average particle size of 32 nm and CdTe nanoparticles with average particle size of 43 nm, were uniformly coated on the substrate by the homemade formulated pastes. Based on ultraviolet–visible absorption spectra, the band gap energies of CdS nanowires, CdS nanoparticles and CdTe nanoparticles were calculated 2.80, 2.65 and 1.64 eV, respectively. It was found that, the photovoltaic performance of the solar cells depends on thickness of CdTe and CdS films, reaching a maximum at a specific value of 6 μm and 225 nm, respectively. For such cell made of CdS nanowires and CdTe nanoparticles the V_OC, J_SC, fill factor and power conversion efficiency were calculated 0.62 V, 6.82 mA/cm², 59.7 and 2.53 %, respectively. Moreover, photovoltaic characteristics of the solar cells were dependent on CdTe and CdS morphologies. CdS/CdTe solar cell made of CdTe and CdS nanoparticles had the highest cell efficiency (i.e., 2.73 %) amongst all fabricated solar cells. The presented strategy would open up new concept for fabrication of low-cost CdS/CdTe solar cells due to employment of a simple chemical route rather than the vapor phase methods.
