The spinel nanocrystalline Co0.5Zn0.5Nd0.05Fe1.95O4 ferrite was prepared by polyacrylamide gel method. Influences of Nd3+ ions substitution on the microstructural and electromagnetic properties for the Co0.5Zn0.5Fe2O4 ferrites had been systematically investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscope (TEM) and wave-guide method. The results showed that the Nd3+ ions can replace Fe3+ ions and adjust lattice parameters. The average size of the Co0.5Zn0.5Fe2O4 and Co0.5Zn0.5Nd0.05Fe1.95O4 particles were identified to be about 50nm and 60nm by TEM, respectively. The complex permittivity (=ε′-jε″) and complex permeability (=μ′-jμ″) for the composites had been measured in the frequency range of 8.2-12.4GHz. The results showed that the Co0.5Zn0.5Fe2O4 and Co0.5Zn0.5Nd0.05Fe1.95O4 ferrites had both dielectric loss and magnetic loss. The dielectric loss tangent (tgδε) and magnetic loss tangent (tgδm) for the Co0.5Zn0.5Nd0.05Fe1.95O4 ferrite were obviously higher than those of the Co0.5Zn0.5Fe2O4. The maximal value of tgδε and tgδm for the Co0.5Zn0.5Nd0.05Fe1.95O4 ferrite was around 0.30 at 12.4GHz and 0.16 at 10.8GHz, respectively.

BN coated Ni nanocapsules were prepared by arc evaporating Ni-B amorphous alloy powders synthesized by a mechanochemical reaction, and their microstructure, surface component as well as electromagnetic properties (2-18 GHz) were investigated by means of high-resolution transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction , photoluminescence spectra (PL) and a network analyzer, respectively. The reflection loss R (dB) of the nanocapsules less than -20 dB was obtained in the frequency range of 4.3-18 GHz for an absorber thickness of 1.4-6 mm. An optimal reflection loss of -32.0 dB was reached at 13 GHz with an absorber thickness of 2 mm. The microwave absorptive mechanisms of BN-coated Ni nanocapsule absorbent were discussed.

First Time

To the best of our knowledge, this report presents, for the first time, the schematic of the possible chemical reaction for a one-pot synthesis of Zn0.5Cd0.5Se alloy quantum dots (QDs) in the presence of low/high oleylamine (OLA) contents. For high OLA contents, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) results showed that the average size of Zn0.5Cd0.5Se increases significantly from 4 to 9 nm with an increasing OLA content from 4 to 10 mL. First, [Zn(OAc)2]–OLA complex can be formed by a reaction between Zn(OAc)2 and OLA. Then, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction (XRD) data confirmed that ZnO is formed by thermal decomposition of the [Zn(OAc)2]–OLA complex. The results indicated that ZnO grew on the Zn0.5Cd0.5Se surface, thus increasing the particle size. For low OLA contents, HRTEM images were used to estimate the average sizes of the Zn0.5Cd0.5Se alloy QDs, which were approximately 8, 6, and 4 nm with OLA loadings of 0, 2, and 4 mL, respectively. We found that Zn(OAc)2 and OLA could form a [Zn(OAc)2]–OLA complex, which inhibited the growth of the Zn0.5Cd0.5Se alloy QDs, due to the decreasing reaction between Zn(oleic acid)2 and Se2−, which led to a decrease in particle size.

Cadmium selenide(CdSe) nanoparticles were prepared in the aqueous solution containing isopropyl alcohol by the ultrasonic irradiation at room temperature. The cadmium chloride (CdCl2) and sodium selenosulfate (Na2SeSO3) were used as the cadmium and selenium source, respectively. X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), UV-Vis absorption spectra and PL spectra were used to characterize the CdSe nanoparticles. XRD analysis revealed the formation of cubic structure CdSe. TEM images showed aggregated CdSe nanoparticles with the size of nanometer scale. Average size of CdSe nanoparticles were about 3.9, 5.0 and 5.1nm with sonication time of 6, 30 and 40 minutes, respectively. The surface emission became less intensive and shifted to red with increasing irradiation time. This paper presents the effects of ultrasonic on the formation of CdSe nanoparticles and its characteristics.

Nanosized TiO2 particles were synthesized by sol-gel method using ionic liquid as assistant. The samples were characterized by UV-vis diffuse reflectance spectra, X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM). It was shown that the phase detectable was mainly rutile phase with uniform sphericity and the average size was 10nm. Along with the rise of sintering temperature, grain diameter became bigger. The photocatalytic activities of nanosized TiO2 were evaluated by the reduction yield in the presence of CO2 and water. The result showed that TiO2 catalysts has efficient photocatalytic activities, of which made with [OMIM]BF4 displayed the highest photocatalytic active in the experiment.

ABSTRACTWe have investigated the homogeneity of sol‐gel derived YBa2Cu307‐s from the solution phase to the final product using transmission electron microscopy (TEM), x‐ray diffraction (XRD), and Energy Dispersive X‐ray (EDX) lateral mapping techniques. The starting solutions contain stoichiometric amounts of the metal 2‐(2‐methoxyethoxy)ethoxide components in 2‐(2‐methoxyethoxy)ethanol and appear to be homogeneous by TEM with a uniform distribution of particles having an average size of less than 40 â. Through elemental mapping we see elemental segregation in the high temperature (950 °C) products, which are orthorhombic by XRD. In elemental maps of gel samples fired to 700 °C, which are tetragonal by XRD, we also see elemental inhomogeneity within particles and phase zoning in maps of products from finely ground gels. A comparison of elemental maps and x‐ray diffraction patterns of the products from gel processing and conventional solid state processing is made.

CIP particles first were coated with SiO2 shell by the Stober process , then grafted the polyaniline by in-situ polymerization to prepare CIP/SiO2/PANI core-shell composites. The CIP/SiO2/PANI composites are composed the dielectric loss properties with the the magnetic loss properties, the morphologystructure and electromagnetic properties are characterized by SEMXRD and vector network analyzer, respectively. It is observed that SiO2 and PANI are on the surface of CIP particles, XRD patterns further confirm that the CIP/SiO2/PANI composites are synthesized successfully, and that interaction between components exist in the polymerization. In comparison with CIP, the complex permittivity of CIP/SiO2/PANI composites have certain enhancement in 2-18GHz frequency range, but it has a very small impact on the complex permeability.

Spherical nickel nanoparticles were prepared by the electrical explosion of wire. The as-prepared nanoparticles were modified immediately after fabrication at room temperature in order to provide tunable surface properties with focus on the development of composites filled with nanoparticles. Following liquid modificators were used: hexane, toluene and the solution of polystyrene in toluene. In one case the surface modification by carbon was made in gas phase as a result of hydrocarbon injection. The average size of the nanoparticles was about 50 nm and unit cell parameters were close to 0.351 nm. Detailed characterization was done by X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, and magnetization measurements. Sphericity was also checked using microwave resonant absorption.

ABSTRACTA carbothermal reaction process was employed to synthesize nano-sized boron carbide particles. The reactions were carried out by heating a mixture of boric oxide powder and amorphous carbon reactant under a flow of argon atmosphere in a conventional high temperature tube furnace at 1350–1700 °C for 1–4 h. In order to obtain stoichiometric powder product, additional pure boron powder was added to the reaction mixture to compensate for the boron loss in the form of B2O2/B2O3vapor during the reaction. The effect of the structure and morphology of the precursor materials on that of the products was also investigated. X-ray diffraction (XRD) studies indicated that the powdered product prepared under optimized reaction conditions was crystalline boron carbide. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) observations showed that the product nanoparticles ranged from 50 nm to 250 nm with the average size between 100 nm and 150 nm depending on the reaction conditions. Some boron carbide particles were as small as 50 nm. Energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) was also used to determine the stoichiometry of the boron carbide nanoparticle products.

The synthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) by microorganisms recently gained a greater interest due to its potential to produce them in various sizes and morphologies. In this study, for AgNP biosynthesis, we used a new Pseudomonas strain isolated from a consortium associated with the Antarctic marine ciliate Euplotes focardii. After incubation of Pseudomonas cultures with 1 mM of AgNO3 at 22 °C, we obtained AgNPs within 24 h. Scanning electron (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) revealed spherical polydispersed AgNPs in the size range of 20–70 nm. The average size was approximately 50 nm. Energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) showed the presence of a high intensity absorption peak at 3 keV, a distinctive property of nanocrystalline silver products. Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy found the presence of a high amount of AgNP-stabilizing proteins and other secondary metabolites. X-ray diffraction (XRD) revealed a face-centred cubic (fcc) diffraction spectrum with a crystalline nature. A comparative study between the chemically synthesized and Pseudomonas AgNPs revealed a higher antibacterial activity of the latter against common nosocomial pathogen microorganisms, including Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus and Candida albicans. This study reports an efficient, rapid synthesis of stable AgNPs by a new Pseudomonas strain with high antimicrobial activity.
