Spherical Bi 2 S 3 nanoparticles (NPs) were prepared by a facile in situ thermal sulfuration method. Different Bi 2 S 3 samples were obtained by controlling the sulfuration time. The products were characterized by X-ray diffractometer (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Raman and Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR) methods. The optical properties were examined by UV-visible-near-infrared (UV-Vis–NIR) and photoluminescence (PL) techniques. The results show that the phase of the products after sulfuration is pure and the spherical shape of Bi NPs has been successfully transmitted to Bi 2 S 3 samples. The light absorption edges exhibit red shift to 1060 nm while the light emission displays blue shift to 868 nm, compared with the energy bandgap of bulk Bi 2 S 3. The reason for the special optical properties of Bi 2 S 3 NPs by this in situ sulfuration route is considered to associate with the defects and quantum size effect of NPs.

SnS nanocrystals of sub-10 nm in size were synthesized by a room temperature, non-aqueous chemical route in the presence of different amounts of triethanolamine (TEA) used as a complexing agent. The crystallinity, size, morphology, chemical composition and optical properties of the as-prepared SnS nanoparticles were investigated by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), micro Raman and optical absorption spectroscopy. The XRD analysis and HRTEM investigation of SnS nanoparticles confirmed the presence of crystalline orthorhombic SnS phase. Upon increasing the amount of TEA, the crystallite size of the samples decreased gradually showing evidence of quantum confinement. EDS analysis showed that SnS nanoparticles (NPs) grown in absence of TEA were highly stoichiometric whereas in TEA capped samples, the atomic concentration of S is slightly higher than that of Sn. As-synthesized SnS nanocrystals displayed strong absorption in the visible and near-infrared spectral regions followed by a blue shift of their absorption edge on increasing the TEA concentration. These nanoparticles were used to prepare SnS paste which was deposited on conducting glass substrates to obtain thin films for photovoltaic applications. The crystallinity, morphology, chemical composition and optical properties of annealed SnS films were investigated.

ZnS nanofibers with lamellar mesostructure could be built up from in situ generated ZnS precursors via hydrothermal routes using neutral n-alkylamines as structure-directing template and ethylene diamine tetraacetic acid (EDTA) as stabilizer. The morphology and structure of the obtained products were thoroughly investigated via scanning electron microscope (SEM), energy dispersive analysis of X-rays (EDX), transmission electron microscope (TEM), X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) and thermal analyses. HRTEM and XRD results revealed that the so-produced nanofibers were lamellar mesostructure and its framework was built of crystalline wurtzite ZnS . It was also found that the distance between the layers was proportional to the chain length of the alkylamine. The UV-visible absorption spectrum showed that the nanofibers exhibited strong quantum-confined effect with a blue shift in the band gap. Finally, a probable mechanism for the assembly of the nanofibers was also proposed.

In this paper ,we report on the fabrication and properties of undoped and 8.4% Er3+-doped ZnO nanoparticles synthesized by laser ablation in ethanol at laser fluence values2.92 J/cm2. The synthesized nanoparticles are characterized by structural properties using X-ray diffractrometer , scanning electron microscope and the optical properties are carried out through UV–Visible spectrophotometer. The X-ray diffractrometer pattern indicates that these nanoparticle were polycrystalline in nature with a hexagonal (wurtzite) phase. SEM reveals that The synthesized ZnO and Er-ZnO NPs have a spherical shape. Moreover, the optical band gaps calculated through UV spectroscopy are found to be decreased with doping from 3.3 to 3.2 eV.

Silver molybdate nanoparticles were successfully prepared by the hydrothermal process. Polyaniline–silver molybdate nanocomposites were prepared by in situ chemical oxidative polymerization technique. Silver molybdate nanoparticles and the polymer samples were characterized by conductivity studies, Fourier transform infrared spectra (FT-IR), UV-visible spectra, photoluminescence spectra, X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The electrical conductivity of PANI- Cl - increases when doped with silver molybdate nanoparticles and follows the percolation threshold.

The optical properties of silicon dioxide hollow particles with different size were investigated in UV/visible/near-IR region, as well as X-ray photoelectron spectra were analyzed. Synthesis of SiO2 hollow particles was carried out using a template method. It was established that hollow particle reflectance lower than bulk microparticles. Absorptance in the red and near infrared spectral ranges increases with decreasing size of hollow particles, but in the UV-region conversely. This is due to different absorption centers.

The present investigation demonstrates the formation of silver nanoparticles by the reduction of the aqueous silver metal ions during exposure to the Lagenaria siceraria leaf extract. The synthesized AgNPs have characterized by UV-visible spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) techniques. AgNPs formation has screened by UV-visible spectroscopy through colour conversion due to surface plasma resonance band at 427 nm. X-ray diffraction (XRD) confirmed that the resulting AgNPs are highly crystalline and the structure is face centered cubic (fcc). FT-IR spectrum indicates the presence of different functional groups present in the biomolecules capping the nanoparticles. Further, inhibitory activity of AgNPs and leaf extract were tested against human pathogens like gram-pastive (Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus subtilis), gram-negative (Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa). The results indicated that the AgNPs showed moderate inhibitory actions against human pathogens than Lagenaria siceraria leaf extract, demonstrating its antimicrobial value against pathogenic diseases

Ti Films

Titanium dioxide (TiO2) films were prepared by thermal oxidation from Ti films. The Ti films were deposited on glass and silicon (100) wafer substrate by dc magnetron sputtering and subsequent with thermal oxidation process. The crystal structure and morphology of TiO2 films were estimated by using X-ray diffractometry (XRD) and field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), respectively. The optical property of TiO2 films was determined by UV-Visible spectrophotometer. The influences of annealing temperature between 200 to 500°C in air for 1 hour on the structure and optical properties of TiO2 films were investigated. The increasing of annealing temperature was directly affected the phase transition from Ti to TiO2. The optical and structural properties of TiO2 films are the best exhibited with increasing the annealing temperature at 500 °C.
