Mn films of ∼50 nm has been deposited by electron beam evaporation technique on cleaned and etched Si [(1 0 0), 8–10 Ω cm] substrates to realize a Mn/Si interfacial structures. The structures have been irradiated from energetic (∼100 MeV) ion beam from Mn side. The irradiated and unirradiated structures have been characterized from atomic force microscopy, X-ray diffractometry, magnetic force microscopy, and vibrating sample magnetometer facilities. It has been found that surface/interfacial granular silicide phases (of MnxSiy) are formed before and after the irradiation with a irradiation induced modifications of surface morphology and magnetic property. The surface/interface roughness has been found to increase on the irradiation from the atomic force microscopy data. The magnetic property on the irradiation shows an interesting and significant feature of an increased coercivity and a ferromagnetic like behavior in the Mn–Si structure. The observed increased coercivity has been related to the increased roughness on the irradiation. The ferromagnetism after the irradiation is a curious phenomenon which seems due to the formation of Mn–C–Si compound from the carbon dissolved in silicon.  相似文献

The nano eggshell powder (NESP) has been prepared by ultrasound irradiation and used as a novel and biodegradable catalyst with high catalytic activity and reusability in green synthesis of 2-aminochromenes via condensation of α- or β-phathol, malononitrile and aromatic aldehydes at 120 °C under solvent-free conditions. The reaction proceeds to completion within 10–35 min in 91–98% yield. Nano eggshell catalyst was characterized by scanning electron microscopy, X-ray powder diffraction, IR spectroscopy and X-ray fluorescence, thermal gravimetric, surface area and elemental analyses. In addition, the catalytic activity and chemical structure of nano-sized eggshell were compared with pure CaCO3.  相似文献

The catalytic performance of nanostructured Ni-Co/Al2O3-ZrO2 catalysts, prepared by ultrasound-assisted impregnation method was examined in the dry reforming of methane. The effect of irradiation power and irradiation time have been studied by changing time (0, 20, 80 min) and power of the sonication (30, 60, 90 W) during the synthesis which resulted in different physiochemical properties of the nanocatalyst. The nanocatalysts were characterized by XRD, FESEM, PSD, EDX, TEM, TPR-H2, BET, FTIR and TG analyses. Based on the characterization results, ultrasound treatment endowed the sample with more uniform and smaller nanoparticles; higher surface area, stronger metal-support interaction and more homogenous dispersion. Moreover, the analyses exhibited smaller particles with higher surface area and less population of particle aggregates at longer and highly irradiated nanocatalysts. The nanocatalyst irradiated at 90 W for 80 min (the longest irradiation time and the most intense power) showed a uniform morphology and a very narrow particles size distribution. More than 65% of particles of this nanocatalyst were in the range of 10–30 nm. Activity tests demonstrated that employing ultrasound irradiation during impregnation improves feed conversion and products yield, reaching values close to equilibrium. Among sonicated nanocatalysts, with increasing power and time of irradiation, the nanocatalyst represents higher activity. The superior performance amongst the various bimetallic catalysts tested was observed over the catalyst with 90 W and 80 min ultrasonic irradiation which is stable in 24 h time on stream test. The excellent anti-coking performance of this bimetallic catalyst, confirmed by TG and FESEM analyses of spent catalyst, is closely related to the promoting effect of sonication on the metal-support interaction, Ni dispersion and particle size; and probably, the synergy between metallic species.  相似文献

Phosphorus irradiation at a low energy (50 keV) and at a dosage of 8×1014 ions/cm2 was carried out on 〈002〉 ZnO films grown by using a pulsed laser deposition technique (Sample A). Subsequent rapid thermal annealing at 650 °C and 750 °C was performed to remove defects resulting from the irradiation (samples B and C, respectively). Atomic force microscopy was used to determine the root mean square roughness, which was 10.07, 8.66, and 9.31 nm for samples A, B, and C, respectively. Low-temperature photoluminescence measurements revealed increased deep-level defect peaks following irradiation; however, the subsequent annealing minimized the defects. Although the dominant donor-bound exciton peak verifies the n-type conductivity of the films, the free–electron–to–acceptor and donor-to-acceptor pair peaks in the irradiated samples confirm an increase in acceptor concentration.  相似文献

Li containing Bikitaite zeolite has been synthesized by an ultrasound-assisted method and used as a potential material for hydrogen storage application. The Sonication energy was varied from 150 W to 250 W and irradiation time from 3 h to 6 h. The Bikitaite nanoparticles were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), infrared (IR) spectral analysis, and field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) thermo-gravimetrical analysis and differential thermal analysis (TGA, DTA). XRD and IR results showed that phase pure, nano crystalline Bikitaite zeolites were started forming after 3 h irradiation and 72 h of aging with a sonication energy of 150 W and nano crystalline Bikitaite zeolite with prominent peaks were obtained after 6 h irradiation of 250 W sonic energy. The Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) surface area of the powder by N2 adsorption–desorption measurements was found to be 209 m2/g. The TEM micrograph and elemental analysis showed that desired atomic ratio of the zeolite was obtained after 6 h irradiation. For comparison, sonochemical method, followed by the hydrothermal method, with same initial sol composition was studied. The effect of ultrasonic energy and irradiation time showed that with increasing sonication energy, and sonication time phase formation was almost completed. The FESEM images revealed that 50 nm zeolite crystals were formed at room temperature. However, agglomerated particles having woollen ball like structure was obtained by sonochemical method followed by hydrothermal treatment at 100 °C for 24 h. The hydrogen adsorption capacity of Bikitaite zeolite with different Li content, has been investigated. Experimental results indicated that the hydrogen adsorption capacities were dominantly related to their surface areas as well as total pore volume of the zeolite. The hydrogen adsorption capacity of 143.2 c.c/g was obtained at 77 K and ambient pressure of (0.11 MPa) for the Bikitaite zeolite with 100% Li, which was higher than the reported values for other zeolites. To the best of our knowledge, there is no report on the synthesis of a Bikitaite zeolite by sonochemical method for H2 storage.  相似文献

In this research, the effect of ultrasonic irradiation power (0, 75, 150 and 200 W) and time (0, 5, 15 and 20 min) on the structure, morphology and photocatalytic activity of zinc oxide nanoparticles synthesized by sol-gel method was investigated. Crystallographic structures and the morphologies of the resultant powders were determined by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The XRD patterns showed that ZnO samples were crystallized in their pure phase. The purity of samples was increased by increasing the ultrasonic irradiation power and time. Not only did ultrasonic irradiation unify both the structure and the morphology, but also it reduced the size and prohibited particles from aggregation. The optical behavior of the samples was studied by UV–vis spectroscopy. Photocatalytic activity of particles was measured by degradation of methyl orange under radiation of ultraviolet light. Ultrasound nanoparticles represented higher degradation compared to non-ultrasound ones.  相似文献

We report the synthesis of nanostructure ZnO semiconductor with ~2.1 nm diameter using a chemical precipitation method. The resulting nanoparticles were characterized by X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD), Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The optical properties were investigated by UV–vis and fluorescence techniques. The absorption spectra exhibit a sharp absorption edge at ~334 nm corresponding to band gap of ~3.7 eV. The fluorescence spectra displayed a near-band-edge ultraviolet excitonic emission at ~410 nm and a green emission peak at ~525 nm, due to a transition of a photo-generated electron from the conduction band to a deeply trapped hole. The photocatalytic activity of the prepared ZnO nanoparticles has been investigated for the degradation of ciprofloxacin drug under UV light irradiation in aqueous solutions of different pH values. The results showed that the photocatalytic degradation process is effective at pH 7 and 10, but it is rather slow at pH 4. Higher degradation efficiency (~50%) of the drug was observed at pH 10 after 60 min. Photodegradation of the drug follows a pseudo-first-order kinetics.  相似文献

Zinc sulphide (ZnS) nanoparticles were prepared by homogeneous hydrolysis of zinc sulphate and thioacetamide (TAA) at 80 °C. After annealing at temperature above 400 °C in oxygen atmosphere, zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles were obtained. The ZnS and ZnO nanoparticles were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), high resolution transmission microscopy (HRTEM), selected area electron diffraction (SAED), by BET and BJH methods used for surface area and porosity determination. The photocatalytic activity of the as-prepared ZnO samples was determined by the decomposition of Orange II in the aqueous solution under UV irradiation of 365 nm of wavelength.  相似文献

Metal–oxide–semiconductor structures (MOS) with the embedded Co nanoparticles (NPs) were efficiently fabricated by utilizing an external laser irradiation technique for the application of nonvolatile memory. Images of high resolution transmission electron microscopy measurements exhibited that the Co NPs of 5 nm in diameter were clearly embedded in SiO2 gate oxide. Capacitance–voltage measurements certainly exhibited flat-band voltage shift of 2.2 V from 2 V to −8 V in sweeping range. The retention characteristics of MOS capacitors with the embedded Co NPs were also studied as a function of tunnel oxide thickness to confirm the suitability of nonvolatile memory devices with metal NPs. The experimental results reveal that our unique laser process will give possible promise for experimental efficient formation or insertion of metal NPs inside the gate oxide.  相似文献

The sonochemical synthesis of sliver nanorods has been achieved by ultrasonic irradiation of the aqueous solution of sliver nitrate, methenamine (HMTA) and poly (vinyl pyrrolidone) (PVP) for 60 min. The silver nanorods obtained have lengths of 4–7 μm and mean diameters of about 100 nm. The structures of the samples were characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), selected area electron diffraction (SAED) and X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), and the chemical composition of the sample was examined by energy-dispersive X-ray spectrum (EDS). The effects of the irradiation time, the concentration of PVP and the reaction temperature on the morphology of silver nanorods were discussed, and the mechanism of the silver nanorods formation was tentatively inferred.  相似文献

In this research, Fe-doped TiO2 nanoparticles with various Fe concentrations (0. 0.1, 1, 5 and 10 wt%) were prepared by a sol–gel method. Then, nanoparticles were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), energy-dispersive X-ray analysis (EDX), BET surface area, photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy and UV–vis diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (DRS). The photocatalytic activity of the nano-particles was evaluated through degradation of reactive red 198 (RR 198) under UV and visible light irradiations. XRD results revealed that all samples contained only anatase phase. DRS showed that the Fe doping in the titania induced a significant red shift of the absorption edge and then the band gap energy decreased from 3 to 2.1 eV. Photocatalytic results indicated that TiO2 had a highest photocatalytic decolorization of the RR 198 under UV irradiation whereas photocatalytic decolorization of the RR 198 under visible irradiation increased in the presence of Fe-doped TiO2 nanoparticles. Among the samples, Fe-1 wt% doped TiO2 nanoparticles showed the highest photocatalytic decolorization of RR198 under visible light irradiation.  相似文献

MMoO4 (M=Ca, Ba) particles were synthesized by a metathetic reaction in ethylene glycol assisted by cyclic microwave irradiation followed by further heat-treatment. The MMoO4 (M=Ca, Ba) particles were well crystallized after heat-treatment at 400–600 °C for 3 h. The microstructures exhibited fine morphologies with sizes of 0.5–1 μm and 1.5–2 μm for the CaMoO4 and BaMoO4 particles, respectively. The synthesized MMoO4 (M=Ca, Ba) particles were characterized by X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy. The optical properties were examined by photoluminescence emission and Raman spectroscopy.  相似文献

Silver nanoparticles (NPs) were photogenerated in situ in crosslinked poly(ester-co-styrene) resins (self-standing films and monoliths) by irradiating the samples with UV light. Addition of the silver salt solution did not interfere in the resin curing process and silver reduction was not detected during sample crosslinking. The samples were characterized by absorption spectroscopy and transmission electron microscopy. The initially broad and asymmetric surface plasmon resonance band was narrowed and blue-shifted as the exposure time to UV light was increased. Samples illuminated up to 120 min have an average particle size near 9.0 nm; a decrease to ∼5.0 nm was observed for longer exposure times up to 790 min. The asymmetric surface plasmon resonance band was due to particle aggregation; higher irradiation times led to a uniform particle distribution within the polymer matrix.  相似文献

Cd0.5Mn0.5Te is a semimagnetic semiconductor, which crystallizes in the zinc-blende structure (ZB) and exhibits a magnetic spin glass like transition at 21 K. Under pressure it shows a first-order phase transition around 2.6 GPa to the NaCl like structure. In this work, the pressure cycled method using a Paris–Edinburgh cell up to 8 GPa has been applied to Cd0.5Mn0.5Te samples in order to obtain recovered nanocrystals. The nanoparticles have been characterized by EDX and electron microscopy. The X-ray and electron diffraction results confirmed the existence of nanocrystals in the ZB phase with an average size of 7 nm. Magnetization measurements made in the range of 2–300 K at low field show that the temperature of the magnetic transition decreases when the crystallites’ size is reduced.  相似文献

Nanocomposite materials have broad applicability due to synergistic effect of combined components. In present investigation, cellulose isolated from citrus peel waste is used as a supporting material; impregnation of zinc oxide nanoparticles via co-precipitation method. The characterization of nano composite is carried out through Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Thermo-gravimetric analysis (TGA) resulting less than 10 µm cellulose fiber and approx. 50 nm ZnO NPs. Zinc oxide impregnated cellulose (ZnO–Cel) exhibited significant bacterial devastation property when compared to ZnO NPs or Cellulose via disc diffusion and colony forming unit methods. In addition, the ZnO–Cel exhibited significant total antioxidant, and minor DPPH free radical scavenging and total reducing power activities. The nano composite also showed time dependent increase in photocatalytic by effectively degrading methylene blue dye up to 69.5% under sunlight irradiation within 90 min. The results suggest effective utilization of cellulose obtained from citrus waste and synthesis of pharmacologically important nano-composites that can be exploited in wound dressing; defence against microbial attack and healing due to antioxidative property, furthermore can also be used for waste water treatment.  相似文献

Fe3O4-graphene/ZnO@mesoporous-SiO2 (MGZ@SiO2) nanocomposites was synthesized via a simple one pot hydrothermal method. The as-obtained samples were investigated using various techniques, as follows: scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and specific surface area (BET) vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM), among others. The sonocatalytic activities of the catalysts were tested according to the oxidation for the removal of methylene blue (MB), methyl orange (MO), and rhodamine B (RhB) under ultrasonic irradiation. The optimal conditions including the irradiation time, pH, dye concentration, catalyst dosage, and ultrasonic intensity are 60 min, 11, 50 mg/L, 1.00 g/L, and 40 W/m2, respectively. The MGZ@SiO2 showed the higher enhanced sonocatalytic degradation from among the three dyes; furthermore, the sonocatalytic-degradation mechanism is discussed. This study shows that the MGZ@SiO2 can be applied as a novel-design catalyst for the removal of organic pollutants from aqueous solutions.  相似文献

Titanium oxide nanoparticles (NPs) were successfully prepared by sparking off two titanium tips into water for 1–5 h. The nanoparticle-dispersed water was obtained for further characterization. The transmission electron microscopy result shows that the particle size is in the range of 1–5 nm. The electron diffraction patterns and Raman spectra reveal that the as-prepared and the annealed samples at 250 °C are the anatase phase. However, the anatase–rutile phase transformation was observed from the samples at annealing temperature as low as 500 °C. The result of methylene blue-decoloration testing under sunbath suggests that the NPs have good photocatalytic property.  相似文献

The nitrogen (N) doped Ti4O7 photocatalyst was prepared from urea as a nitrogen source by a microwave method. The resulting photocatalyst was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Field Emission Scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), UV–visible diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (UV–Vis DRS) and UV–vis spectroscopy (UV–Vis). 0.1 M N doped Ti4O7 photocatalyst exhibited methylene blue decomposition efficiency of 100% which was prepared by microwave treatment for above 30 min. Rate constant was found to be 0.028910 min−1 in the first order kinetic.  相似文献

The effects of 100 MeV Ni ion irradiation on magnetic properties of nanoparticles of Ni0.8Cu0.2Fe2O4 with average particle sizes of 40 Å and 60 Å, synthesized by chemical co-precipitation method have been studied. The spinel cubic structures were confirmed by XRD. The average particle size estimated by XRD and by Langevin function fitting are in good agreement for both the pristine and irradiated samples. The blocking temperature increases with particle size and does not change after irradiation. On irradiation by 100 MeV Ni ions, significant changes in the hysteresis loop features are observed, which may be attributed to formation of cluster of defects in the nanocrystalline samples due to swift heavy ion (SHI) irradiation. It is also found that SHI irradiation produces more dominant changes in the hysteresis loop of smaller particle size of 40 Å as compared to that of 60 Å.  相似文献

A novel method has been developed for the preparation of nano-sized TiO2 with anatase phase. Nanoparticles with diameter about 6 nm were prepared at a relatively low temperature (75 °C) and short time. The synthesis was carried out by the hydrolysis of titanium tetra-isopropoxide (TTIP) in the presence of water, ethanol, and dispersant under ultrasonic irradiation (500 kHz) at low intensity. The results show that variables such as water/ethanol ratio, irradiation time, and temperature have a great influence on the particle size and crystalline phases of TiO2 nanoparticles. Characterization of the product was carried out by different techniques such as powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) and UV–vis spectroscopy.  相似文献
