Generating Metallic Amorphous Core–Shell Nanoparticles by a Solid‐State Amorphization Process 下载免费PDF全文

Metallic crystalline/amorphous core–shell nanoparticles consisting of a crystalline Pd core (c‐Pd) surrounded by an amorphous Fe25Sc75 shell (a‐FeSc) are prepared by inert‐gas condensation. A phase transformation of the c‐Pd by a solid‐state diffusion process resulting in an amorphous core (a‐PdSc) surrounded by an amorphous FeSc shell is observed if the core–shell structure is irradiated at ambient temperature with 300 keV electrons. The amorphization process seems to involve the diffusion of irradiation‐induced defects and is presumably driven by the large negative heat of mixing of Pd and Sc, as well as by the excess enthalpy of the interfaces between the c‐Pd regions and the surrounding a‐FeSc. The structural transformation reported here opens a new way to producing metallic amorphous core–shell nanoparticles of different chemical compositions and probably novel properties. 相似文献

Electronic-excitation-effects of phase stability in III-V binary compound
nanoparticles have been studied by TEM. When GaSb particles were excited by
75 keV electrons, the compound transforms to a two-phase consisting of an
antimony core and a gallium shell or an amorphous phase, or remains the
original crystalline phase, depending on particle size and/or temperature.
It is suggested that such nonlinear responses of the phase stability may
arise from synergistic effects of bond instability under excited states,
formation of high density of excited states, chemical equilibrium under
excited states and temperature dependence of defects mobility. 相似文献

ABSTRACTMultiple exciton generation (MEG) in nanometer-sized hydrogen-passivated silicon nanowires (NWs), and quasi two-dimensional nanofilms depends strongly on the degree of the core structural disorder as shown by the perturbative many-body quantum mechanics calculations based on the density functional theory simulations. Working to the second order in the electron–photon coupling and in the screened Coulomb interaction, we calculate quantum efficiency (QE), the average number of excitons created by a single absorbed photon, in the Si29H36 quantum dots (QDs) with crystalline and amorphous core structures, simple cubic three-dimensional arrays constructed from these QDs, crystalline and amorphous NWs, and quasi two-dimensional silicon nanofilms, also both crystalline and amorphous. Efficient MEG with QE ranging from 1.3 up to 1.8 at the photon energy of about 3Eg, where Eg is the electronic gap, is predicted in these nanoparticles except for the crystalline NW and crystalline film where QE ? 1. MEG in the amorphous nanoparticles is enhanced by the electron localisation due to structural disorder. Combined with the lower gaps, the nanometer-sized amorphous silicon NWs and films are predicted to have effective carrier multiplication within the solar spectrum range. 相似文献

Femtosecond dynamics of excess electrons photo-injected into amorphous and crystalline D2O layers on Ru(0 0 1) have been investigated by time-resolved two-photon photoelectron spectroscopy. In the crystalline case, excited electrons are transferred into delocalized states considered as image potential states in the conduction band of ice and relax back to the metal on an ultrafast time scale. The life time of the n = 1 image potential state is <5 fs. In the amorphous case, spectral features arise from delocalized and localized electronic states. Relaxation of delocalized electrons back to the metal is as fast as in the crystalline case. The binding energy of localized electrons, however, is found to increase as a function of time delay by 1 eV/ps, which is attributed to the formation of solvated electrons. Such energetic stabilization starting at the bottom of the conduction band is clearly absent in crystalline layers. This pronounced correlation of electronic structure and electron dynamics with molecular structure is associated with the presence of localized states near the bottom of the conduction band in amorphous ice. Such localized states are absent for perfect periodic crystalline structures but prevail in amorphous systems where they serve as precursor sites for electron solvation. 相似文献

We study the difference between on site Hubbard and long range Coulomb repulsions for two interacting particles in a disordered
chain. The system size L (in units of the lattice spacing) is of the order of the one particle localization length and the energies are taken near
the band center. In the two cases, the limits of weak and strong interactions are characterized by uncorrelated energy levels
and are separated by a crossover regime where the states are more extended and the spectra more rigid. U denoting the interaction strength and t the kinetic energy scale, the crossovers take place for interaction energy to kinetic energy ratios U/t and U/(2tL) of order one, for Hubbard and Coulomb repulsions respectively. While Hubbard repulsion can only yield weak critical chaos
with intermediate spectral statistics, Coulomb repulsion can drive the two particle system to quantum chaos with Wigner-Dyson
spectral statistics. The interaction matrix elements are studied to explain this difference.

Bimetallic nanoparticles, enclosed by high-index facets, have great catalytic activity and selectivity owing to the synergy effects of high-index facets and the electronic structures of alloy. In this paper, a discrete particle swarm optimization algorithm was employed to systematically investigate the structural stability and features of tetrahexahedral Pt-based bimetallic nanoparticles with high-index facets. Different Pt/Ag, Pt/Cu, Pt/Pd atom ratios and particle sizes were considered in this work. The simulation results reveal that these alloy nanoparticles exhibit considerably different structural characteristics. Pt–Ag nanoparticles tend to form Pt–Ag core–shell structure. Pt–Cu nanoparticles are preferred to take multi-shell structure with Cu on the outer surface while Pt–Pd nanoparticles present a mixing structure in the interior and Pd-dominated surface. Atomic distribution and bonding characteristics were applied to further characterize the structural features of Pt-based nanoparticles. This study provides an important insight into the structural stability and features of Pt-based nanoparticles with different alloys. 相似文献

We studied electronic-excitation-induced phase transformations in nanoparticles using transmission electron microscopy. GaSb particles excited by 75 keV electrons transform to two phases consisting of an antimony core and a gallium shell or an amorphous phase, or remain in the original crystalline phase, depending on particle size and/or temperature. It is suggested that such nonlinear responses of the phase transformations may arise from synergistic effects of bond instability, localized excitations, enhanced diffusivity, or thermal equilibrium in reactions. 相似文献

The optical properties of VO(2) nanoparticles formed in an amorphous SiO(2) host by stoichiometric ion implantation of vanadium and oxygen and thermal annealing have been determined and correlated with the particle size and morphology. The results show that that the temperature-controlled semiconductor-to-metal phase transition of the VO(2) nanophase precipitates turns on the classical surface plasmon resonance, with specific features that depend on the size and aspect ratio of the VO(2) particles. This effect improves the optical contrast between the metallic and semiconducting states in the near-IR region of the spectrum as a result of dielectric confinement that is due to the SiO(2) host. A fiber-optic application is demonstrated, as is the ability to control the characteristics of the phase transition by using ion implantation to dope the VO(2) nanoparticles with tungsten or titanium ions. 相似文献

Cobalt and nickel nanoparticles were produced by hydrogen reduction reaction from cobalt or nickel chloride precursor vapour
in nitrogen carrier gas. This aerosol phase method to produce nanoparticles is a scalable one-step process. Two different
setups were introduced in particle production: a batch type reactor and a continuously operated reactor. Common feature in
these setups was hydrogen mixing in a vertical flow reactor. The process was monitored on-line for particle mass concentration
and for gas phase chemical reactions. Tapered element oscillating microbalance measured the particle mass concentration and
Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy was used to monitor relevant gas phase species. The produced cobalt and nickel particles
were characterised using transmission electron microscopy and x-ray diffraction. The produced cobalt and nickel particles
were crystalline with cubic fcc structure. Twinning was often observed in cobalt particles while nickel particles were mostly
single crystals. The cobalt particles formed typically long agglomerates. No significant neck growth between the primary particles
was observed. The primary particle size for cobalt and nickel was below 100 nm. 相似文献

In this work we report on the formation of lumpy Pd and Pt nanoparticles on fluorine-doped tin oxide/glass (FTO/glass) substrate by a laser-based approach. In general, complex-surface morphology metal nanoparticles can be used in several technological applications exploiting the peculiarities of their physical properties as modulated by nanoscale morphology. For example plasmonic metal nanoparticles presenting a lumpy morphology (i.e. larger particles coated on the surface by smaller particles) can be used in plasmonic solar cell devices providing broadband scattering enhancement over the smooth nanoparticles leading, so, to the increase of the device efficiency. However, the use of plasmonic lumpy nanoparticles remains largely unexplored due to the lack of simply, versatile, low-cost and high-throughput methods for the controllable production of such nanostructures.Starting from these considerations, we report on the observation that nanoscale-thick Pd and Pt films (17.6 and 27.9 nm, 12.1 and 19.5 nm, respectively) deposited on FTO/glass surface irradiated by nanosecond pulsed laser at fluences E in the 0.5–1.5 J/cm2 range, produce Pd and Pt lumpy nanoparticles on the FTO surface. In addition, using scanning electron microscopy analyses, we report on the observation that starting from each metal film of fixed thickness h, the fraction F of lumpy nanoparticles increases with the laser fluence E and saturates at the higher fluences. For each fixed fluence, F was found higher starting from the Pt films (at each starting film thickness h) with respect to the Pd films. For each fixed metal and fluence, F was found to be higher decreasing the starting thickness of the deposited film. To explain the formation of the lumpy Pd and Pt nanoparticles and the behavior of F as a function of E and h both for Pd and Pt, the thermodynamic behavior of the Pd and Pt films and nanoparticles due to the interaction with the nanosecond laser is discussed. In particular, the photothermal vaporization and Coulomb explosion processes of the Pd and Pt nanoparticles are invoked as possible mechanisms for the lumpy nanoparticles formation. 相似文献

The preparation of palladium (Pd) films has been investigated using KrF or ArF laser irradiation on a Pd acetate (PdAc) coated substrate. A crystalline Pd film could be obtained by KrF laser irradiation (fluence = 15-40 mJ/cm2) but PdAc was found to remain in the film. An increase in the substrate temperature to 423 K decreased the inclusion of the unreacted precursor and produced a better crystallinity. An amorphous and uniform Pd film composed of very fine particles was found to be formed by this process under reduced pressure, which is probably due to the preferential ablation of the crystalline nuclei. ArF laser irradiation is more effective for decomposing the PdAc and for producing a Pd film with a better crystallinity and no (or smaller) organic inclusion. 相似文献

We have measured the low-temperature (K) specific heat and heat release of small amorphous and crystalline SiO2 particles embedded in Teflon and of Vycor. The temperature and time dependence of these properties have been interpreted
in terms of the tunneling model. We found that the particle size influences the density of states of tunneling systems of
the composite. The smaller the size of the particles the larger is the density of states of tunneling systems P0. Quartz grains with dimensions in the micrometer range show similar glass-like properties as vitreous silica. In comparison
with bulk vitreous silica, Vycor shows a much larger P0 in agreement with the behavior we found for small SiO2 particles. We discuss the implication of our results on the origin of the universal low-temperature properties of glasses.

A silicon wafer implanted with a single low energy (42 keV) silicon ion beam results in strong luminescence at room temperature. The implantation results in the formation of various luminescent defect centers within the crystalline and polymorphous regions of the wafer. The resulting luminescence centers (LC) are mapped using fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy (FLIM). The emission from the ion-implanted wafer shows multiple PL peaks ranging from the UV to the visible; these emissions originate from bound excitonic states in crystal defects and interfacial states between crystalline/amorphous silicon and impurities within the wafer. The LCs are created from defects and impurities within the wafer and not from nanoparticles. 相似文献

Supported molybdenum-sulfide nanoparticles are known catalysts for petroleum hydrodesulfurization as well as for electrochemical hydrogen evolution. In this study, we investigate molybdenum-sulfide nanoparticles supported on Au(1 1 1) using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and scanning tunneling microscopy (STM), aiming to correlate spectroscopically determined chemical states with atomically resolved nanostructure. The results of this study allow us to conclude the following: (1) the XPS results from our model system are in good agreement with previously published results on supported MoS2 for industrial applications, validating in part the fidelity of the model system; (2) STM reveals that catalytically active, crystalline MoS2 nanoparticles exhibiting the well-known metallic edge state are only present after a post-deposition annealing step in the synthesis procedure, without which the particles exhibit amorphous shapes and incomplete sulfidation; and (3) the sulfided nanoparticles are found to be stable in air at room temperature. 相似文献

The magneto-optical properties of 14-nm Co x Ag1?x core–shell nanoparticles (x=0.7, 0.8, and 0.35) deposited on different substrates are investigated at room temperature in the photon-energy range from 0.8 to 4.8 eV. Particles with low Ag content show spectra very similar to pure Co nanoparticles while particles with high Ag content have totally different features, where the Ag plasma edge dominates the spectra. The spectral features of the polar Kerr rotation depend on particle composition. The ageing process and development of an oxide layer influence the particles’ core–shell structures and magnetization curves. Co-rich particles exhibit lower resistance to the oxidation process as compared to Ag-rich ones. The quality of the nanoparticles was checked by transmission electron microscopy in respect of time scale. 相似文献

Formation of silicon nanoparticles and web-like aggregates by femtosecond laser ablation in a background gas 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

We show that the mechanism of nanoparticle formation during femtosecond laser ablation of silicon is affected by the presence
of a background gas. Femtosecond laser ablation of silicon in a H2 or H2S background gas yields a mixture of crystalline and amorphous nanoparticles. The crystalline nanoparticles form via a thermal
mechanism of nucleation and growth. The amorphous material has smaller features and forms at a higher cooling rate than the
crystalline nanoparticles. The background gas also results in the suspension of plume material in the gas for extended periods,
resulting in the formation (on a thin film carbon substrate) of unusual aggregated structures including nanoscale webs that
span tears in the film. The presence of a background gas provides additional control of the structure and composition of the
nanoparticles during short pulse laser ablation.

In order to better understand the transition from quantum to classical behavior in spin system, electron magnetic resonance (EMR) is studied in suspensions of superparamagnetic magnetite nanoparticles with an average diameter of ∼9 nm and analyzed in comparison with the results obtained in the maghemite particles of smaller size (∼5 nm). It is shown that both types of particles demonstrate common EMR behavior, including special features such as the temperature-dependent narrow spectral component and multiple-quantum transitions. These features are common for small quantum systems and not expected in classical case. The relative intensity of these signals rapidly decreases with cooling or increase of particle size, marking gradual transition to the classical ferromagnetic resonance (FMR) behavior. 相似文献
