One-dimensional Co0.5Zn0.5Fe2O4 nanostructures (nanofibers) with an average diameter of 154 nm were fabricated by electrospinning. These nanofibers were characterized by X–ray diffraction, field emission scanning electron microscopy, and transmission electron microscopy. Magnetic hysteresis loops were measured for randomly oriented and aligned Co0.5Zn0.5Fe2O4 nanofibers, in comparison with the corresponding powder sample synthesized using the conventional sol-gel process. The differences in magnetic properties are observed between the Co0.5Zn0.5Fe2O4 nanofibers and powders, and these differences mainly arise from the grain size and morphological variations between these two materials. In determining the magnetization ease axis for the aligned Co0.5Zn0.5Fe2O4 nanofibers the shape anisotropy is slightly dominant competing with the magnetocrystalline anisotropy.

Magnetic Hysteresis Loops

Zn1-xCoxO magnetic microspheres have been synthesized by a simple solvothermal process. Different Co2+ dopant concentrations have been used as modifier and proved to be efficient at controlling the morphology and magnetic property of Zn1-xCoxO microspheres. The as-synthesized samples are characterized by X-ray powder diffraction, field-emission scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, photoluminescence spectrophotometer and vibrating sample magnetometry. Magnetic hysteresis loops reveal the samples exhibit ferromagnetic loops at room temperature. The meta-saturation magnetization value and coercivity of Zn0.8Co0.2O reach 0.09 emu·g-1 and 15.0 Oe.

AbstractIn this work, strongly blue emitting Ce3+-activated BaAl2O4 nanophosphors were successfully synthesized by a sol–gel technique. The crystal structure, morphology, and microstructure of the nanophosphors have been studied by X-ray powder diffraction, field emission scanning electron microscopy, and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy. The photoluminescence spectra show the impact of concentration variation of Ce3+ on the photoluminescence emission of the phosphor. These nanophosphors display intense blue emission peaking at 422 nm generated by the Ce3+ 5d → 4f transition under 350 nm excitation. Our results reveal that this nanophosphor has the capability to take part in the emergent domain of solid-state lighting and field-emission display devices.

Comparative Results

Europium substituted bismuth ferrite powders were synthesized by the sol-gel technique. The precursor xerogel was characterized by thermal analysis. Bi1−xEuxFeO3 (x = 0–0.20) powders obtained after thermal treatment of the xerogel at 600 °C for 30 min were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Raman spectroscopy, and Mössbauer spectroscopy. Magnetic behavior at room temperature was tested using vibrating sample magnetometry. The comparative results showed that europium has a beneficial effect on the stabilization of the perovskite structure and induced a weak ferromagnetism. The particle size decreases after the introduction of Eu3+ from 167 nm for x = 0 to 51 nm for x = 0.20. Photoluminescence spectroscopy showed the enhancement of the characteristic emission peaks intensity with the increase of Eu3+ concentration.

Single-crystal MoO3 nanowires were produced using the electrospinning technique. High-resolution transmission electron microscopy revealed that the one-dimensional nanostructures are 10–50 nm in diameter, on the order of 1–2 μm in length, and have the orthorhombic MoO3 structure. The structure, crystallinity, and sensoric character of these electrostatically processed nanowires are discussed. It has been demonstrated that the nonwoven network of MoO3 nanowires exhibits an order of magnitude higher sensitivity compared with that of a sol-gel based sensor. This is promising for use of the nanowire sensors in nanomedicine.

Ga Content

Nanocrystalline Ga doped nickel ferrite [(NiFe2-xGaxO4 (x=0.0, 0.1, 0.3, 0.5 and 0.7)] powders have been synthesized by sol-gel auto-ignition method and the effect of non-magnetic gadillum content on the nanosize particles and magnetic properties has been studied. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) revealed that the powders obtained are single phase with spinel structure. The calculated grain size from XRD data have been verified using transmission electron microscopy (TEM). TEM photograph shows that the powders consist of nanometer sized grain. The size of nanoparticles decreases as the non magnetic Ga content increases. Magnetic hysteresis loops were measured at room temperature with maximum applied magnetic field of 20 KOe. As Ga content increases, the measured magnetic hysteresis curves became border and saturation magnetization (MS) increased up to x= 0.3 and further increase of x leads the magnetization to decrease. The results are explained according to the assumed cation distribution.

Titania Nanofibers

Titania nanofibers were successfully synthesized by sol-gel coating of electrospun polymer nanofibers followed by calcining to form either the pure anatase or rutile phases. Characterization of these materials was carried out using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), diffuse reflectance Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (DRIFTS), X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and UV-vis spectroscopy techniques. The average diameter of these ceramic nanofibers was observed to be around 200 nm for both the rutile and anatase forms. The valence band structure and optical absorption thresholds differ, however, indicating that nanofibrous mats of titania can be selectively developed for different applications in catalysis and photochemistry.

Ti1-xFexO2 nanocrystals with x = 0.01, 0.02, 0.03 were prepared via a nonaqueous synthesis route. X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy and high resolution transmission electron microscopy characterization confirmed the formation of anatase-phase nanocrystals with the average crystallite sizes of around 10 nm. The lattice constants alternate with the increase of the Fe content and no iron clusters were generated. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy measurements showed that the substitutional Fe ions present mainly the valence of +3. The magnetic hysteresis loops measured at room temperature (RT) 300K showed that all the doped samples are atypically ferromagnetic, and the coercivity (Hc) of all the Fe-doping samples is around 0.1 T. An interpretation for the intrinsic RT ferromagnetism is put up based on the free carriers and defects induced interaction between Fe3+ ions.

Multi walled carbon nanotubes-hydroxyapatite (MWCNTs-HA) with various contents of MWCNTs was synthesized using the sol-gel method. MWCNTs-HA composites were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). HA particles were generated on the surface of MWCNT. Produced MWCNTs-HA nanocomposites were coated on pure titanium (PT). Characteristic of the titanium coated MWCNTs-HA was evaluated by field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) and XRD. The results show that the titanium surface was covered with MWCNTs-HA nanoparticles and MWCNTs help form the crystalized hydroxyapatite. Furthermore, the MWCNTs-HA coated titanium was investigated for in vitro cellular responses. Cell proliferation and differentiation were improved on the surface of MWCNT-HA coated titanium.

Mn3O4nanoparticle/graphene sheet (GM) composites were synthesized via a one-pot and low-cost solvothermal process in an ethanol solution. The as-prepared materials were characterized by X-ray diffraction, field emission scanning electron microscopy, and transmission electron microscopy. Results showed that the nanosized Mn3O4particles had tetragonal hausmannite structure and were successfully loaded on the graphene sheets. Moreover, the electrochemical performances of GM composites produced by different mass percents of Mn2+/graphite oxide (GO) were evaluated by means of cyclic voltammetry and galvanostatic charge-discharge studies. The composite prepared with Mn2+/GO mass percent of 10 : 90 showed a high specific capacitance of 245 F/g at 5 mV/s in the 6 M KOH solution and better long-term stability along with 81% of its initial capacitance after 1200 cycles at 0.5 A/g.
