AbstractThe combination of 1-adamantanecarboxylic acid and tri-alkylphosphine was applied to produce monodisperse FePd nanoparticles by the polyol reduction of palladium acetylacetonate and thermally decomposition of iron pentacarbonyl. Images of high resolution transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) data indicate a highly monodisperse and crystalline nature of the FePd nanoparticles. Magnetic studies performed by Quantum Design SQUID magnetometer show that FePd (16nm) nanoparticles are superparamagnetic at room temperature.

Fe-based colloids with a core/shell structure consisting of metallic iron and iron oxide were synthesized by a facile hot injection reaction of iron pentacarbonyl in a multi-surfactant mixture. The size of the colloidal particles was affected by the reaction temperature and the results demonstrated that their stability against complete oxidation related to their size. The crystal structure and the morphology were identified by powder X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy, while the magnetic properties were studied at room temperature with a vibrating sample magnetometer. The injection temperature plays a very crucial role and higher temperatures enhance the stability and the resistance against oxidation. For the case of injection at 315 °C, the nanoparticles had around a 10 nm mean diameter and revealed 132 emu/g. Remarkably, a stable dispersion was created due to the colloids’ surface functionalization in a nonpolar solvent.

Bi1–xCaxFeO3 was prepared by the flash autocombustion combustion technique. X-ray diffraction analysis showed a Rhombohedrally distorted hexagonal perovskite structure with space group R3c. The particle size and shape were studied by transmission electron microscope. Magnetization studies at room temperature showed superparamagnetic behavior for the prepared nanoparticles. Magnetoelectric coefficient characterized as magnetic field – induced polarization was investigated. The Lande factor (g), resonance field (Br), relaxation time (τ), and the energy between two adjacent degenerate spin energy levels (ΔE) were estimated from the electron spin resonance spectra.

Lead sulfide (PbS) nanoparticles have been synthesized by photo chemical method and also in the dark ambient at room temperature. The pH of the solution is maintained by adding NaOH. The as-prepared PbS nanoparticles have been characterized by X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Energy-dispersive Analysis of X-ray (EDAX) and Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM). XRD studies reveal the crystalline nature of the particles. Grain size values are calculated using Scherrer’s formula and compared with the standard values. SEM picture shows a flower like structure in the sample synthesized at dark ambient, whereas the samples synthesized in light reveals the presence of varied nanostructures like nanorods, nanowires and nanoparticles. Size of the photo chemically synthesized PbS particles observed from TEM lies between 30nm to 60nm. From EDAX we conclude that the composition is nearly stoichiometric.

Cadmium sulfide (CdS) nanocrystals (NCs) were self-assembled and in-situ immobilized on the dithiocarbamate (DTCs)-functionalized polyethylene glycol terephthalate (PET) substrates between the organic (carbon disulfide diffused in n-hexane) –aqueous (ethylenediamine and Cd2+ dissolved in water) interface at room temperature. Powder X-ray diffraction measurement revealed the hexagonal structure of CdS nanocrystals. Morphological studies performed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and high-resolution transmission electron microscope (HRTEM) showed the island-like structure of CdS nanocrystals on PET substrates, as well as energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) confirmed the stoichiometries of CdS nanocrystals. The optical properties of DTCs modified CdS nanocrystals were thoroughly investigated by ultraviolet-visible absorption spectroscopy (UV-vis) and fluorescence spectroscopy. The as-prepared DTCs present intrinsic hydrophobicity and strong affinity for CdS nanocrystals.

Novel single-crystalline SnO2 zigzag nanoribbons have been successfully synthesized by chemical vapour deposition. Sn powder in a ceramic boat covered with Si plates was heated at 1100°C in a flowing argon atmosphere to get deposits on a Si wafers. The main part of deposits is SnO2 zigzag nanoribbons. They were characterized by means of X-ray diffraction (XRD), field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and selected-area electron diffraction (SAED). SEM observations reveal that the SnO2 zigzag nanoribbons are almost uniform, with lengths near to several hundred micrometers and have a good periodically tuned microstructure as the same zigzag angle and growth directions. Possible growth mechanism of these zigzag nanoribbons was discussed. A room temperature PL spectrum of the zigzag nanoribbons shows three peaks at 373nm, 421nm and 477nm.The novel zigzag microstructures will provide a new candidate for potential application.

nanocrystalline cellulose (NCC) was prepared from micro-crystalline cellulose (MCC) by strong acid hydrolysis. The characteristics of such particle were studied by transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. Electro-rheological fluids (ERF) were prepared by dispersing NCC and MCC in methyl-silicone oil, and their ER effects were measured. Experimental results indicated that NCC ERF exhibited a remarkable ER effect. The highest static shearing stress of NCC ERF (3.5 g/ml) was 5.1 kPa at the room temperature under a 4 .2 kV/mm electric field, increased about 5.5 times compared to MCC ERF, and sedimentation of NCC ERF was not observed even after 60 days.

We report a new compression shearing method for the production of bulk amorphous materials. In this study, amorphous Nd–Fe–B melt-spun ribbons were successfully consolidated into bulk form at room temperature by the compression shearing method. X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy studies revealed that the amorphous structure was well maintained in the bulk materials. The resultant bulk materials exhibited the same magnetic properties as the original amorphous Nd–Fe–B materials.

A carbon-encapsulated Fe3O4 nanocomposite was prepared by a simple one-step pyrolysis of iron pentacarbonyl without using any templates, solvents or surfactants. The structure and morphology of the nanocomposite was investigated by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, Brunauer–Emmett–Teller analysis and Raman spectroscopy. Fe3O4 nanoparticles are dispersed intimately in a carbon framework. The nanocomposite exhibits well constructed core–shell and nanotube structures, with Fe3O4 cores and graphitic shells/tubes. The as-synthesized material could be used directly as anode in a lithium-ion cell and demonstrated a stable capacity, and good cyclic and rate performances.

A chemical co-reduction route in aqueous solution was developed to synthesize Bi100−xSbx alloys at room temperature. The hydrolyses of Bi(III) and Sb(III) were effectively avoided by selecting proper raw materials and coordinator. X-ray diffraction analysis indicated that the as-prepared Bi100−xSbx alloys were homogeneous and phase-pure, and the Bi/Sb ratios in the alloys were very close to those in the aqueous solutions. The transmission electron microscope observation showed that the as-prepared Bi100−xSbx (x = 0∼100) alloys were particles with a size of tens of nanometers. The selected area electron diffraction patterns confirmed the high crystallinity, the homogeneousness, and the composition controllability of as-prepared alloys. All these characters and the nanometer-scaled size of the alloys are believed to be beneficial to the thermoelectric property of the Bi100−xSbx alloys.

The (In15Sb85)100-xBix films (x = 0~18.3) were deposited on nature oxidized Si wafer and glass substrate at room temperature by magnetron co-sputtering of Sb target and InBi composite target. The optical and thermal properties of the films were examined by reflectivity thermal analyzer. Microstructures of the films were analyzed by X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscope. The crystallization activation energy of the (In15Sb85)100-xBix film (x = 0~18.3) was decreased with increasing Bi content, this indicated that the crystallization speed was improved by doping Bi. The structure of as-deposited (In15Sb85)100-xBix films was amorphous and it would transform to Sb, InSb, Bi, and BiIn2 coexisting phases after annealing at 250 °C for 30 min.
