Microwave-hydrothermal synthesis of single-crystalline Co3O4 spinel nanocubes
(The Royal Society of Chemistry, 2013-07-29)
An efficient microwave-hydrothermal (MAH) method has been developed for the synthesis of highly crystalline Co3O4 spinel nanocubes via beta-Co(OH)(2) without any surfactant assistance. The structure and surface chemical ...
A DFT Study of Structural and Electronic Properties of ZnS Polymorphs and its Pressure-Induced Phase Transitions
(John Wiley & Sons, 2014)
A systematic first-principles investigation, by using the density functional formalism with the nonlocal B3LYP approximation including a long-range dispersion correction, has been performed to calculate the structural and ...
Structural and electronic analysis of the atomic scale nucleation of Ag on α-Ag2WO4 induced by electron irradiation
(Nature Publishing Group, 2014-06)
In this work, we utilise a combination of theory, computation and experiments to understand the early events related to the nucleation of Ag filaments on α-Ag2WO4 crystals, which is driven by an accelerated electron beam ...
Correlation between structural and electronic order-disorder effects and optical properties in ZnO nanocrystals
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2014-10)
The correlation between structural and electronic order–disorder effects in understanding the optical properties of flower-like ZnO nanocrystals synthesized by the microwave-assisted hydrothermal method at low temperatures ...
Identifying and rationalizing the morphological, structural, and optical properties of β-Ag2MoO4 microcrystals, and the formation process of Ag nanoparticles on their surfaces: combining experimental data and first-principles calculations
(IOP Publishing, 2015-11)
We present a combined theoretical and experimental study on the morphological, structural, and optical properties of β-Ag2MoO4 microcrystals. β-Ag2MoO4 samples were prepared by a co-precipitation method. The nucleation and ...
Synthesis of wurtzite ZnS nanoparticles using the microwave assisted solvothermal method
(Elsevier, 2013-04)
In this article, we report the development of an efficient and rapid microwave assisted solvothermal (MAS) method to prepare wurtzite ZnS nanoparticles at 413 K using different precursors. The materials obtained were ...
Zinc blende versus wurtzite ZnS nanoparticles: control of the phase and optical properties by tetrabutylammonium hydroxide
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2014)
The influence of tetrabutylammonium hydroxide on the phase composition (cubic zinc blende versus
hexagonal wurtzite) of ZnS nanoparticles was studied. The ZnS nanoparticles were prepared by a microwaveassisted
solvothermal ...
An experimental and theoretical investigation on the optical and photocatalytic properties of ZnS nanoparticles
(Elsevier, 2017-04)
From the viewpoints of materials chemistry and physical chemistry, crystal structure directly determines the electronic structure and furthermore their optical and photocatalytic properties. Zinc sulfide (ZnS) nanoparticles ...
A relationship between structural and electronic order–disorder effects and optical properties in crystalline TiO2 nanomaterials
