Quasi‐aligned porous ZnO nanowire arrays are promising architectures for potential applications in catalysts, gas sensors and solar cells. However, processes for conversion of ZnO nanowire arrays into porous ones have rarely been reported. Here, we report a facile chemical method for the synthesis of ZnO nanowire array with porous surface. The morphology and structure of the obtained products have been investigated with field‐emission scanning electron microscopy and high‐resolution transmission electron microscopy. Time‐dependent experiments have also been carried out to better understand the formation process of porous structures on the nanowire surfaces. The obtained porous ZnO nanowire arrays may find potential applications in catalysts, solar cells and gas sensors due to the large surface area of the yielded products. 相似文献

Nd-substituted bismuth titanate (Bi3.15Nd0.85Ti3O12, BNT) nanotube arrays are fabricated by means of a sol–gel method utilizing porous anodic aluminum oxide (AAO) template. The morphologies and structures have been determined by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The diameter and length of these nanotubes are about 200 nm and 60 μm, respectively, and their wall thickness is about 30 nm. The average grain size is around 40 nm. XRD data show that the BNT nanotubes possess bismuth-layered perovskite structure. High-resolution electron microscopy (HRTEM) image demonstrates that the BNT nanotubes are polycrystalline. Polarization–electric field (P–E) response curves of BNT nanotube arrays were measured, and a size induced polarization reduction phenomenon is observed. 相似文献

Nano‐structured anodic alumina membranes are ideal templates and have wide applications. However, anodic alumina materials begin to curl up at high temperatures. To better understand and overcome this problem, the thermal stability of anodic alumina membranes was investigated. Anodic alumina membranes obtained in oxalic acid electrolyte were heat treated in air at different annealing temperatures up to 1200 °C. Our results show that the sub‐pores produced during the annealing process are responsible for the curling. The repulsive forces between neighboring pores caused by mechanical stress at the metal nucleus/oxide interface promote the formation of the sub‐pores. Annealing under a suitable pressure provided thermal stability to the membranes, because it avoided or minimized curling and cracking phenomena. Scanning electron microscopy images showed that the sub‐pores disappeared when annealed under a suitable pressure. 相似文献

In this paper we report a chemical method named coordination reaction method to synthesize ZnO nanowire arreys. ZnO nanowires with the diameter about 80nm were successfully fabricated in the channels of the porous anodic alumina (PAA) template by the above coordination reaction method. The microstructures of ZnO/PAA assembly were characterized using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and X‐ray diffraction (XRD). The results showed that the ZnO nanowires can be uniformly assembled into the nanochannels of PAA template. The growth mechanism of ZnO nanowires and the conditions of the coordination reaction are discussed. Photoluminescence (PL) measurement shows that the ZnO/PAA assembly system has a blue emission band caused by the various defects of ZnO. (© 2011 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim) 相似文献

The controlled synthesis of hierarchical CuO nanomaterials in a solution phase has been realized with high yield at low temperature using copper acetate hydrate and NaOH as starting materials with the assistance of surfactant under hydrothermal conditions. X‐ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and ultraviolet‐visible spectroscopy (UV‐Vis) were used to characterize the products. It was shown that the hierarchical CuO nanoarchitectures were formed through aggregation of tiny single‐crystal CuO nanorods. Experiments demonstrated that the morphology of CuO products was significantly influenced by hydrothermal temperature and reaction time. A rational growth mechanism based on oriented attachment was proposed for the selective formation of the hierarchical CuO nanoarchitectures. Our work demonstrated the growth of hierarchical CuO nanoarchitectures built from one‐dimentional nanorods through a one‐step solution‐phase chemical route under controlled conditions. In addition, The UV‐Vis spectrum of the hierarchical CuO nanoarchitectures showed large blue shift because of the quantum size effect. (© 2009 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim) 相似文献

Co nanowires with a preferred orientation were fabricated by direct current electrodeposition into the pores of porous anodic alumina membrane, and the structure of Co nanowires was studied by X-ray diffraction and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy with selected-area electron diffraction. It is found that the crystal structure of Co nanowires lies on the deposition potential. When electrodeposition is performed far from equilibrium conditions, i.e., at a high potential, face-centered cubic Co nanowires are deposited, while hexagonal close packing Co nanowires are formed at the low potential. The experimental results indicate that the orientation of the nanowires has effects on the coercivity for both hexagonal close packing (hcp) and face-centered cubic (fcc) Co. 相似文献

Highly ordered TiO2 nanotube arrays (TNAs) fabricated by anodization are very attractive for use in dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs), because of their superior charge percolation and slow charge recombination. Highly ordered, vertically aligned TNAs have been prepared by three-step anodic oxidation. In this work, we investigated such strategies for improving the efficiency of DSSCs. Based on one of these approaches, oxide semiconductors in the form of a TNA were used as a novel method for improving electron transport through a film. A solution containing an appropriate amount of TiO2 nanoparticles was prepared, and the mixed slurry was spin-coated on a TNA film. The coated film provided a large surface area for dye adsorption. The DSSCs achieved a light-to-electric energy conversion efficiency of 5.91% under simulated solar irradiation at 100 mW/cm2 (AM 1.5). 相似文献

ZnO nanotube arrays were synthesized on zinc foil by a simple solvothermal approach. In this approach, zinc foil was used not only as a substrate but also as a zinc‐ion source for the direct growth of ZnO nanotube arrays. X‐ray diffraction (XRD) analysis and Scanning electron microscope (SEM) images, indicated that the structure of the ZnO nanotube arrays on the zinc foil substrate was single‐crystalline with a wurtzite structure. The optical properties of the ZnO nanorod arrays were characterized by photoluminescence spectroscopies and Raman. Photoluminescence exhibited strong UV emission and a broad deep‐level (visible) emission emission at with 325 nm excitation. A possible mechanism is also proposed to account for the growth of the ZnO nanotube arrays. (© 2009 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim) 相似文献

Two‐dimensional (2D) CuO nanosheets were fabricated on Cu foils using a solution method. The method was novel, easy and can be completed at room temperature in the absence of any surfactant. The obtained materials were characterized by X‐ray diffraction (XRD), X‐ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and ultraviolet‐visible (UV‐Vis) spectroscopy. The effects of reaction time and temperature on the morphology and formation of CuO nanosheets were investigated, and a possible mechanism for the formation of CuO nanosheets was proposed. Experiments demonstrated that the formation of CuO nanosheets were significantly influenced by the growth time, and the reaction temperature was a key factor in determining the size of CuO nanosheets. Photocatalytic performance of CuO nanosheets was evaluated by measuring the decomposition rate of methyl orange solution. About 93% of the methyl orange was degraded after 150 min, which was much more efficient than that of CuO nanoparticles. 相似文献

Novel tomato‐shaped copper oxide crystals has been prepared by a simple hydrothermal method with the presence of Zn2+ ion. The ultrasonic pretreatment has proved to be the key factor during the synthesis process. Scanning electron microscope, energy dispersive X‐ray spectrometry and powder X‐ray diffraction were used to characterize the microstructure and morphology of the as‐prepared products. The obtained tomato‐shaped CuO particles were constructed by nanorods with the diameter of about 20 nm. The possible growth mechanism was proposed based on the experimental results.

A new method is proposed to obtain uniform arrays of multiwall carbon nanotubes without catalysts. Nanotubes have been formed
by carbon condensation from a hydrogen-methane gas mixture activated by a dc discharge. Structural and morphological investigations
of the obtained material were performed by Raman spectroscopy, scanning and transmission electron microscopy, energy-dispersive
X-ray analysis, and electron energy loss spectroscopy. It is shown that the obtained nanotubes contain no impurities that
could act as catalysts. Based on these experimental data, it is concluded that the nanotube synthesis under study is noncatalytic.
Possible mechanisms of this synthesis are considered. 相似文献

Leaf‐like copper oxide nanocrystals synthesized by a gas‐liquid diffusion method at room temperature
The leaf‐like copper oxide (CuO) nanocrystals have been synthesized by a gas‐liquid diffusion method in pure aqueous solution at room temperature. The structure, morphologies and related properties of the as‐prepared crystals were characterized with X‐ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscope (TEM), selected area electron diffraction (SAED) and thermogravimetric analysis (TG). The influence of copper concentration was investigated, which plays an important role in the formation of nanostructured CuO crystals. Only when the copper concentration was low enough (0.005 M) that the leaf‐like CuO could be obtained directly. Additionally, a growth mechanism of CuO was also proposed based on the observed results. 相似文献

A simple and cost effective hydrothermal method has been employed to synthesis morphology controlled pure and Cr doped (4 and 8 at. %) CuO nanostructures. Crystalline purity and structure of the nanostructures were validated by X‐ray diffraction and Retvield analyses. Field emission scanning electron microscopy revealed the evolution of rod‐like, sheet‐like and boat‐like morphologies for pure, 4 and 8 at. % Cr doped CuO nanostructures respectively. The optical band gap estimated using the K‐M function plot from diffused reflectance spectroscopy showed a shift in band gap from 1.68 to 1.90 eV with respect to Cr concentration. The synthesized CuO nanostructures were investigated for the efficient room temperature gas sensing of ammonia, ethanol and methanol vapours under different concentrations (100‐600 ppm). The 8 at. % Cr doped CuO nano‐boats showed enhanced gas sensitivity than other CuO nanostructures owing to their typical morphology, larger surface area and related properties. 相似文献

ZnO/SrTiO3 core/shell nanorod arrays were fabricated by a facile two‐step method. ZnO nanorod arrays were first hydrothermally grown on Si substrate. Then, using liquid phase deposition method, SrTiO3 were deposited onto the ZnO nanorods to form core/shell nanorod structures. The morphologies and structures of the products were characterized by scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and X‐ray diffraction. The photocatalytic behavior of the nanorod arrays was also examined through the photodegradation of methylene blue solution under UV irradiation. It was found that the core/shell nanorod arrays with deposition time of 10 min showed higher photocatalytic activity than bare ZnO nanorod arrays. This enhancement was attributed to the efficient charge separation at the ZnO/SrTiO3 interface. 相似文献

Structures of amorphous anodic alumina films have been investigated by the X-ray radial distrubution function and the correlation method. The amorphous anodic alumina films are considered to contain AlO5 coordination polyhedra as well as AlO4 tetrahedra and AlO6 octahedra. Two types of conformation are taken into account by the correlation method; one (model A) is the conformation in which the above coordination polyhedra are arranged in a similar way to that found in the crystalline modifications of γ-Al2O3 within a short range of r < 4.5 Å and the other (model B) is the conformation in which coordination polyhedra are randomly arranged. The final model formed by mixing these two conformations (model A and B) in 1 : 1 ratio describes quantitatively the observed scattering intensity curves of the amorphous anodic alumina films. 相似文献
