Double-walled carbon nanotubes (DWCNTs) with high graphitization have been synthesized by hydrogen arc discharge. The obtained
DWCNTs have a narrow distribution of diameters of both the inner and outer tubes, and more than half of the DWCNTs have inner
diameters in the range 0.6–1.0 nm. Field electron emission from a DWCNT cathode to an anode has been measured, and the emission
current density of DWCNTs reached 1 A/cm2 at an applied field of about 4.3 V/μm. After high-temperature treatment of DWCNTs, long linear carbon chains (C-chains) can
be grown inside the ultra-thin DWCNTs to form a novel C-chain@DWCNT nanostructure, showing that these ultra-thin DWCNTs are
an appropriate nanocontainer for preparing truly one-dimensional nanostructures with one-atom-diameter.

The equilibrium piezoelectric potential distribution in a deformed ZnO semiconductive nanowire has been systematically investigated
in order to reveal its dependence on the donor concentration, applied force, and geometric parameters. In particular, the
donor concentration markedly affects the magnitude and distribution of the electric potential. At a donor concentration of
N
D>1018 cm−3, the piezopotential is almost entirely screened. Among the other parameters, a variation in the length of the nanowire does
not significantly affect the potential distribution.

We propose a simple method for the efficient and rapid synthesis of one-dimensional hematite (α-Fe2O3) nanostructures based on electrical resistive heating of iron wire under ambient conditions. Typically, 1–5 μm long α-Fe2O3 nanowires were synthesized on a time scale of seconds at temperatures of around 700 ° ⊂. The morphology, structure, and mechanism
of formation of the nanowires were studied by scanning and transmission electron microscopies, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy,
X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and Raman techniques. A nanowire growth mechanism based on diffusion of iron ions to the
surface through grain boundaries and to the growing wire tip through stacking fault defects and due to surface diffusion is
proposed.

Monodisperse CoPt3 nanocrystals (NCs) have been synthesized in oleylamine solution by an organic solvothermal method. The NCs were ellipsoidal
particles with a diameter around 6.6 nm and length around 10 nm with a good single crystal structure. Using CoPt3 NCs as catalysts, large-area boron nanowires with diameters ranging from 30 to 50 nm were successfully prepared by chemical
vapor deposition using a C/B/B2O3 mixture as the precursor. Structural analysis indicated that these nanowires were single crystalline with a β-rhombohedral structure. Measurement of the field emission properties of boron nanowire films showed that the boron nanowires
have good field emission characteristics.

Nearly monodisperse spherical amorphous Se colloids are prepared by the dismutation of Na2SeSO3 solution at room temperature; by altering the pH of the solution, amorphous Se colloid spheres with sizes of about 120 nm,
200 nm, 300 nm, and 1 μm can be obtained. Se@Ag2Se core/shell spheres are successfully synthesized by using the obtained amorphous Se (a-Se) spheres as templates, indicating
the potential applications of these Se nanomaterials in serving as soft templates for other selenides. Meanwhile, selenium
nanowires are obtained through a “solid-solution-solid” growth process by dispersing the prepared Se spheres in ethanol. This
simple and environmentally benign approach may offer more opportunities in the synthesis and applications of nanocrystal materials.

Single-walled carbon nanotube (SWNT) thin film electrodes have been printed on flexible substrates and cloth fabrics by using
SWNT inks and an off-the-shelf inkjet printer, with features of controlled pattern geometry (0.4–6 cm2), location, controllable thickness (20–200 nm), and tunable electrical conductivity. The as-printed SWNT films were then
sandwiched together with a piece of printable polymer electrolyte to form flexible and wearable supercapacitors, which displayed
good capacitive behavior even after 1,000 charge/discharge cycles. Furthermore, a simple and efficient route to produce ruthenium
oxide (RuO2) nanowire/SWNT hybrid films has been developed, and it was found that the knee frequency of the hybrid thin film electrodes
can reach 1,500 Hz, which is much higher than the knee frequency of the bare SWNT electrodes (˜158 Hz). In addition, with
the integration of RuO2 nanowires, the performance of the printed SWNT supercapacitor was significantly improved in terms of its specific capacitance
of 138 F/g, power density of 96 kW/kg, and energy density of 18.8 Wh/kg. The results indicate the potential of printable energy
storage devices and their significant promise for application in wearable energy storage devices.

We experimentally investigate the stabilization of the anatase phase of Ti1−x
Sn
x
O2 (x < 0.5) nanofibers when synthesized by an electrospinning method. The as-spun nanofibers became nano-grained, polycrystalline
nanofibers after calcination and the diameters of the nanofibers depend on Sn content. Stabilization of the anatase phase
in Ti-rich compositions and incorporation of Sn ions were confirmed by X-ray diffraction, Raman, X-ray absorption near-edge
structure, and photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopies. Results from the PL study also demonstrated the tunable nature of the
optical properties, with the emission maximum shifting towards higher wavelength with increasing Sn concentration.

This work demonstrates the synthesis of Pt ultrathin nanowires assisted by chromium hexacarbonyl [Cr(CO)6]. The nanowires exhibit a uniform diameter of 2–3 nm. The length can reach up to several microns. It was found that Cr species
produced dumbbell-like nuclei which play a pivotal role in the formation of the Pt nanowires. Such Pt nanowires can be tuned
to nanocubes by simply decreasing the concentration of [Cr(CO)6]. Compared to a commercial Pt/C catalyst (45 wt%, Vulcan, Tanaka) and Pt black (fuel cell grade, Sigma), the synthesized
Pt nanowires exhibit superior performance in electrocatalytic oxygen reduction with a specific activity of 0.368 mA/cm2, which was 2.7 and 1.8 times greater than that of Pt/C (0.138 mA/cm2) and Pt black (0.202 mA/cm2), respectively. The mass activity of Pt nanowires (0.088 mA/μg) is 2.3 times that of Pt black (0.038 mA/μg) and comparable
to that of Pt/C (0.085 mA/μg).

Inorganic fullerene-like WS2 and MoS2 nanoparticles have been synthesized using exclusively solid precursors, by reaction of the corresponding metal oxide nanopowder,
sulfur and a hydrogen-releasing agent (NaBH4 or LiAlH4), achieved either by conventional furnace heating up to ∼900 °C or by photothermal ablation at far higher temperatures driven
by highly concentrated white light. In contrast to the established syntheses that require toxic and hazardous gases, working
solely with solid precursors permits relatively safer reactor conditions conducive to industrial scale-up.

Single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) with specific diameters are required for various applications particularly in electronics
and photonics, since the diameter is an essential characteristic determining their electronic and optical properties. In this
work, the selective growth of SWCNTs with a certain mean diameter is achieved by the addition of appropriate amounts of CO2 mixed with the carbon source (CO) into the aerosol (floating catalyst) chemical vapor deposition reactor. The noticeable
shift of the peaks in the absorption spectra reveals that the mean diameters of the as-deposited SWCNTs are efficiently altered
from 1.2 to 1.9 nm with increasing CO2 concentration. It is believed that CO2 acts as an etching agent and can selectively etch small diameter tubes due to their highly curved carbon surfaces. Polymer-free
as-deposited SWCNT films with the desired diameters are used as saturable absorbers after stamping onto a highly reflecting
Ag-mirror using a simple dry-transfer technique. Sub-picosecond mode-locked fiber laser operations at ∼1.56 μm and ∼2 μm are
demonstrated, showing improvements in the performance after the optimization of the SWCNT properties.

Magnetic field-induced solvothermal synthesis of one-dimensional assemblies of Ni-Co alloy microstructures 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
One-dimensional magnetic Ni-Co alloy microwires with different microstructures and differently shaped building blocks including
spherical particles, multilayer stacked alloy plates, and alloy flowers, have been synthesized by an external magnetic field-assisted
solvothermal reaction of mixtures of cobalt(II) chloride and nickel(II) chloride in 1, 2-propanediol with different NaOH concentrations.
By adjusting the experimental parameters, such as precursor concentration and Ni/Co ratio, Ni-Co alloy chains with uniform
diameters in the range 500 nm to 1.3 μm and lengths ranging from several micrometers to hundreds of micrometers can be obtained.
A mechanism of formation of the one-dimensional assemblies of magnetic Ni-Co microparticles in a weak external magnetic field
is proposed.

Submicrometer sized pure cubic phase, Eu3+ doped, and Yb3+/Er3+ co-doped α-NaYF4 particles with octahedral morphology have been prepared in acetic acid. The acetate anion plays a critical role in the formation
of such symmetric octahedral structures through its selective adsorption on the (111) faces of the products. The size of the
as-prepared octahedra can be tuned by varying the amount of sodium acetate added to the acetic acid. A possible formation
mechanism for these octahedra has been proposed. The doped α-NaYF4 octahedral submicrometer particles show down-conversion and up-conversion photoluminescence typical of these materials.

The strong hydrogen bonding ability of 2-pyridones were exploited to build nanotrains on surfaces. Carborane wheels on axles
difunctionalized with 2-pyridone hydrogen bonding units were synthesized and displayed spontaneous formation of linear nanotrains
by self-assembly on SiO2 or mica surfaces. Imaging using atomic force microscopy confirmed linear formations with lengths up to 5 μm and heights within
the range of the molecular height of the carborance-tipped axles.

Magnetic nanowires (NWs) are ideal materials for the fabrication of various multifunctional nanostructures which can be manipulated
by an external magnetic field. Highly crystalline and textured nanowires of nickel (Ni NWs) and cobalt (Co NWs) with high
aspect ratio (∼330) and high coercivity have been synthesized by electrodeposition using nickel sulphate hexahydrate (NiSO4·6H2O) and cobalt sulphate heptahydrate (CoSO4·7H2O) respectively on nanoporous alumina membranes. They exhibit a preferential growth along 〈110〉. A general mobility assisted
growth mechanism for the formation of Ni and Co NWs is proposed. The role of the hydration layer on the resulting one-dimensional
geometry in the case of potentiostatic electrodeposition is verified. A very high interwire interaction resulting from magnetostatic
dipolar interactions between the nanowires is observed. An unusual low-temperature magnetisation switching for field parallel
to the wire axis is evident from the peculiar high field M(T) curve.

Two fluorescent quantum clusters of gold, namely Au25 and Au8, have been synthesized from mercaptosuccinic acid-protected gold nanoparticles of 4–5 nm core diameter by etching with excess
glutathione. While etching at pH ∼3 yielded Au25, that at pH 7–8 yielded Au8. This is the first report of the synthesis of two quantum clusters starting from a single precursor. This simple method makes
it possible to synthesize well-defined clusters in gram quantities. Since these clusters are highly fluorescent and are highly
biocompatible due to their low metallic content, they can be used for diagnostic applications.

This paper describes a facile method of preparing cubic Au nanoframes with open structures via the galvanic replacement reaction
between Ag nanocubes and AuCl2
−. A mechanistic study of the reaction revealed that the formation of Au nanoframes relies on the diffusion of both Au and
Ag atoms. The effect of the edge length and ridge thickness of the nanoframes on the localized surface plasmon resonance peak
was explored by a combination of discrete dipole approximation calculations and single nanoparticle spectroscopy. With their
hollow and open structures, the Au nanoframes represent a novel class of substrates for applications including surface plasmonics
and surface-enhanced Raman scattering.

Bi<Subscript>2</Subscript>S<Subscript>3</Subscript> nanostructures: A new photocatalyst 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Uniform colloidal Bi2S3 nanodots and nanorods with different sizes have been prepared in a controllable manner via a hot injection method. X-ray
diffraction (XRD) results show that the resulting nanocrystals have an orthorhombic structure. Both the diameter and length
of the nanorods increase with increasing concentration of the precursors. All of the prepared Bi2S3 nanostructures show high efficiency in the photodegradation of rhodamine B, especially in the case of small sized nanodots—which
is possibly due to their high surface area. The dynamics of the photocatalysis is also discussed.

A novel lamellar feather-like CeO2 structure has been fabricated by using a triblock copolymer as the structure-directing agent. This material was characterized
in detail by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy,
and BET surface area measurements. Compared with conventional spherical shaped ceria prepared by ammonia gelation, the ceria
feathers have superior ability to support nanosized platinum particles due to their special structure. The “skeletons” of
ceria feathers can serve as an ideal host matrix to anchor the platinum particles. Furthermore, the inter-crossing pattern
of the “skeletons” also acts as a partition to separate platinum particles, allowing the Pt nanoparticles (average diameter
∼6 nm) to be highly dispersed in the structure. The Pt/feather-like CeO2 catalyst exhibits high activity in the water gas shift reaction.

Films of Ni1−x
Pt
x
(x=0, 0.02, 0.04, 0.06, and 0.08) have been prepared on fluorine-doped tin oxide-coated (FTO) glass substrates by a chemical
plating method and used as the photocathode for dye-sensitized solar cells (DSCs). The Ni0.94Pt0.06 film consisted of nanoparticles with a size of 4–6 nm and a Pt loading of 5.13 μg/cm2. The Ni0.94Pt0.06 photocathode exhibited high catalytic performance toward triiodide reduction, high light reflectance, and low charge-transfer
resistance. The DSC assembled with the Ni0.94Pt0.06 photocathode gave a short-circuit photocurrent density (J
sc) of 16.79 mA/cm2, an open-circuit photovoltage (V
oc) of 736 mV, and a fill factor (FF) of 66.4%, corresponding to an overall conversion efficiency of 8.21% under standard AM
1.5 irradiation (100 mW/cm2), which is higher than that for the DSC with a pure Pt photocathode obtained by conventional thermal decomposition. Furthermore,
the DSC based on the Ni0.94Pt0.06 photocathode showed good stability. The results indicate that Ni0.94Pt0.06 films are promising lowcost and high-performance photocathodes for use in DSCs.

Working with a biased atomic force microscope (AFM) tip in the tapping mode under ambient atmosphere, attoliter (10−18 L) water droplet patterns have been generated on a patterned carbonaceous surface. This is essentially electrocondensation
of water leading to charged droplets, as evidenced from electrostatic force microscopy measurements. The droplets are unusual
in that they exhibit a highly corrugated surface and evaporate rather slowly, taking several tens of minutes.
