Large-scale synthesis and microstructure of SnO2 nanowires coated with quantum-sized ZnO nanocrystals on a mesh substrate

Large-quantity single-crystal SnO(2) nanowires coated with quantum-sized ZnO nanocrystals (nc-ZnO/SnO(2) nanowires) were directly synthesized by thermal evaporation of SnO powder and a mixture of basic ZnCO(3) and graphite powders. A common stainless steel mesh was used to collect the products. The microstructure and possible growth mechanism of the nc-ZnO/SnO(2) nanowires were investigated. Results showed that tetragonal structured SnO(2) nanowires were obtained, whose surfaces were coated with single-layer ZnO nanocrystals with an average diameter of less than 5 nm. The nanowires had cross-rectangle section with width-to-thickness aspect ratio ranging from 2:1 to 5:1. The lengths of the nanowires were several tens of micrometers. ZnO nanocrystals were single crystalline wurtzite structures, which coated the whole nanowires and distributed uniformly. The possible growth mechanism of the composite nanowires may be enucleated that Zn atoms in the source vapor will replace the Sn atoms on the surface of the formed SnO(2) nanowires due to the higher reducibility of Zn than Sn. Two strong Raman scattering peaks at 626 and 656 cm(-1) appeared in the micro-Raman spectrum of nc-ZnO/SnO(2) nanowires. The origins of the peaks were discussed. Most importantly, the method can be extended to other composite oxide nanowires that are synthesized by oxidizing two kinds of metals, such as high reducibility elements Mg, Al, Zn, and Ti, and low reducibility elements In, Ge, Ga, etc.     

Evolution of the geometrical and electronic structures of Gan(n=2-26) clusters: a density-functional theory study

Density-functional theory with generalized gradient approximation for the exchange-correlation potential has been used to calculate the lowest-energy geometries and electronic structure of neutral gallium clusters containing up to 26 atoms. Harmonic vibrational frequency analysis is undertaken to assure that the lowest-energy geometries are real local minima. With increasing cluster size, we find that the gallium clusters tend to adopt compact structures. The structures comprise triangular units that connect each other with different dihedral angles. The lowest-energy structure can be obtained by capping an atom on the structure of smaller one. The capping site occurs at a site where interactions with more atoms are available. The binding energy evolves monotonically with size, but Ga(8), Ga(14), and Ga(20) exhibit particularly higher stability. Except Ga(2) and Ga(4), all even-numbered gallium clusters we studied are closed-shell singlet states with a substantial highest occupied and lowest unoccupied molecular orbitals gap. The odd-numbered clusters are open shell with a small gap. The size dependence of cluster's ionization potentials and electron affinities is discussed and compared with available experiment.

Effect of La_2O_3/γAl_2O_3 Catalyst on the Activation of CH_4 and CO_2 to C_02 Hydrocarbons under Non-equilibrium Plasma

The oxidative coupling of methane (OCM) to C2 hydrocarbons using carbon dioxide as oxidant is an attractive process from environmental point of view. Only a few research papers reported for it1-3. In general, the yield of C2 hydrocarbons was about 6%. This indicated that the method of catalytic activation was unfavorable to the reaction. It is necessary for us to find a new method in order to activate reaction and improve C2 hydrocarbon yield. Non-equilibrium plasma is a cold plasma in…
