Y2O3:Eu3+ nanophosphor was synthesized by flame spray pyrolysis (FSP) from urea added nitrate based liquid precursor. In this study, urea serves as fuel and subsequently provides additional heat in the flame zone during the synthesis of phosphor particles. The end product shows cubic phase Y2O3:Eu3+ nanophosphor successfully prepared by FSP without heat treatment. The influence of synthesis conditions such as different mol of urea and nitrate source materials in aqueous solution, and doping concentration on luminescent properties, were investigated. The characteristics of nanophosphor such as crystallinity and morphology under various experiments of conditions were carried out by x-ray diffraction (XRD) and field emission-scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM). The particle size of product was found to be in the range of 20–30 nm from transmission electron microscopy (TEM). In photoluminescence (PL) properties, Y2O3:Eu3+ nanophosphor emitted red light with a peak wavelength of 609 nm when excited with 398 nm wavelength photons.

Pure ZnO and Palladium (Pd)-loaded ZnO nanoparticles containing 0.25, 0.50, 0.75 and 1.0 mol% of Pd were successfully synthesized by flame spray pyrolysis (FSP) and characterized for hydrogen and ethanol sensing applications. The crystalline phase, morphology and size of these nanoparticles were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) in order to correlate physical properties with gas sensing performance. The sensing films were fabricated by coating nanoparticles with organic paste composed of terpineol and ethyl cellulose as a vehicle binder on Al2O3 substrate interdigitated with gold electrodes. The film thicknesses were varied by controlling the numbers of coating. Film morphologies of gas sensors were characterized by atomic force microscopy (AFM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Moreover, response time and sensitivity of these sensors towards hydrogen and ethanol were evaluated under operating temperatures ranging from 200 ̶ 350°C in dry air. Finally, The optimum amount of loading Pd and film thickness were investigated.

Undoped WO3and WO3nanoparticles doped with 0.251.0 wt.% Pt were successfully produced in a single step by flame spray pyrolysis (FSP) [. Tungsten (VI) ethoxide 5% w/v in ethanol 99.8% and platinum (II) acetylacetonate were used as W and Pt precursors respectively dissolved in ethanol. The undoped WO3and Pt-doped WO3nanoparticles were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS). The BET surface area (SSABET) of the nanoparticles was measured by nitrogen adsorption. From BET measurement,SSABETincreased anddBETdecreased with increasing Pt concentration from 0 to 1.0 wt.%. The morphology and accurate size of the primary particles were further investigated by high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM). The crystallite size of undoped WO3spherical was found to be ranging from 520 nm and the crystallite sizes of 0.251.0 wt.% Pt-doped WO3spherical particles were found to be in the range of 520 nm.

Noble metal-TiO2 nanohybrids, NM0-TiO2, (NM0 = Pt0, Pd0, Au0, Ag0) have been engineered by One-Nozzle Flame Spray Pyrolysis (ON-FSP) and Double-Nozzle Flame Spray Pyrolysis (DN-FSP), by controlling the method of noble metal deposition to the TiO2 matrix. A comparative screening of the two FSP methods was realized, using the NM0-TiO2 photocatalysts for H2 production from H2O/methanol. The results show that the DN-FSP process allows engineering of more efficient NM0-TiO2 nanophotocatalysts. This is attributed to the better surface-dispersion and narrower size-distribution of the noble metal onto the TiO2 matrix. In addition, DN-FSP process promoted the formation of intraband states in NM0-TiO2, lowering the band-gap of the nanophotocatalysts. Thus, the present study demonstrates that DN-FSP process is a highly efficient technology for fine engineering of photocatalysts, which adds up to the inherent scalability of Flame Spray Pyrolysis towards industrial-scale production of nanophotocatalysts.
