Enhanced Ultraviolet Emission from Hydrothermally Grown ZnO Nano-Grass on Si Substrate
摘要: Highly crystalline one-dimensional zinc oxide (ZnO) nano-grass was grown on silicon (Si) substrate by a modified hydrothermal method. A predominantly c-oriented ZnO nano-grass with an average diameter of 40–60 nm and length of 1.5–2.0 lm was obtained. From the photoluminescence (PL) measurement, we observed a defect-free, intense ultraviolet emission of as-grown ZnO nano-grass, confirming the absence of singly ionized oxygen vacancies. The absence of green deep-level emission in the PL spectrum further implies a high crystallinity of as-grown ZnO nano-grass. The high-quality ZnO nano-grass has potential applications in single nanowire-based light-emitting diodes, solar cells, themoresistive sensing, photocatalysis, ultraviolet photodetectors, optical switches, waveguides and nano-lasers.

Ternary Ag nanoparticles/natural-magnetic SiO2-nanowires/reduced graphene oxide nanocomposites with highly visible photocatalytic activity for 4-nitrophenol reduction
摘要: Agglomerate and reuse limit the promising application of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) as catalyst. To eliminate those disadvantages, herein, Fe-containing silica nanowires (SiO2NWs) and reduced graphene oxide (RGO) are used as suitable substrates to prepare AgNPs/SiO2NWs/RGO nanocomposite via self-assembly approach. The nanocomposite mostly assembled with each other via intermolecular hydrogen bond and electrostatic adsorption to form a three-dimensional network structure. The AgNPs/SiO2NWs/RGO nanocomposite exhibit excellent photocatalytic activity for 4-nitrophenol reduction by NaBH4, originating from that the nearly mono-dispersed AgNPs are adhered on the surface of the SiO2NWs and RGO, allowing the effective contact of reactants with catalyst and facilitating the electron transfer between them in the reaction. The obtained nanocomposites exhibit the superior stability and can be easily recovered with their fully catalytic activities due to the hydrophobic and magnetic properties of the nanocomposites. It shows the great prospect for the 4-NP reduction in practice and is promising for wide applications in visible light catalytic reaction.

Direct-printed nanoscale metal-oxide-wire electronics
摘要: One-dimensional metal oxide (MO) micro-wires and nano-wires (MOWs) can be excellent functional units for integrated and transparent electronics. However, MOWs produced using conventional synthesis methods are short, uncontrollable, and randomly-distributed, so they cannot be easily used to fabricate high-density transistor arrays with precisely-controlled MOW-channels. Here, we describe a large-scale direct-printed universal nanoscale MOW electronics which includes highly-aligned, digitally-controlled and arbitrarily-long MOW arrays and various nanoscale applications of MOW field-effect transistors (FETs), neuromorphic synaptic transistors, and gas sensors. Broad classes of pristine, doped and alloyed MOWs are fabricated, so we demonstrated all-MOWFETs composed of conducting indium oxide (In2O3) wires and semiconducting indium zinc oxide (IZO) wires; the devices show a high carrier mobility μ ~17.67 cm2 V-1 s-1, comparable to μ of MO thin-film FETs. MOW synaptic transistors show presynaptic signals dependent postsynaptic behaviors similar to biological synaptic responses; which can be promising nano-electronic units of high-density neuromorphic devices. We also demonstrated MOW gas sensors which show high response to NO2 gas. Our direct-printed, large-scale, and individually-controlled MOW electronics would be a promising approach in development of industrially-viable MOW electronics and open new horizons for precisely-controlled inorganic MOW electronics and nanoscale printed electronics.

Simultaneous detection of different probe molecules using silver nanowires as SERS substrates
摘要: Metallic silver nanowires with high yield were synthesized using a modified seed mediated approach at room temperature. Ribbon-like nanostructures were obtained when the concentration of NaOH was lower and further increase of NaOH transformed it into long nanowires. These nanowires possess high aspect ratio, with length and diameter ~ 6.5 μm and 17 nm respectively. The surface enhanced Raman scattering activity of these nanowires was tested with three different probe molecules viz., crystal violet, malachite green and nile blue chloride using visible (514.4 nm) and near-infrared (784.8 nm) excitation lines. The minimum detection limits for crystal violet and nile blue chloride molecules were found to be down to 10-7 M with good linear responses, as evidenced by values of correlation coefficients, indicating their potential for a variety of applications such as sensing. Principal component analysis was performed with the surface enhanced Raman spectra in order to discriminate the dye molecules and their mixture, simultaneously. The first two principal components, which provided 69.80 and 27.93% of the total data variance, could be conveniently represented as a two dimensional PCA score plot. The score plot showed clear clustering of probe molecules and their mixture. The relative contribution of wavenumbers to each of the two principal components was identified by plotting the PCA loading matrix. These results further promote possibilities of quantification of multiplexed SERS detection and analysis.

Cobalt/Molybdenum Phosphides and Oxides Heterostructures Encapsulated in N-doped Carbon Nanocomposite for Overall Water Splitting in Alkaline Media
摘要: The development of designing and searching inexpensive electrocatalysts with highly activity for both hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER) is significant to enable water splitting as a future renewable energy source. Herein, we synthesis a new CoP(MoP)-CoMoO3 heterostructure coated by N-doped carbon shell (CoP(MoP)-CoMoO3@CN) via thermal decomposing and phosphatizing the CoMoO4?0.9H2O nanowires encapsulated in N-doped carbon. At 10 mA?cm?2, this CoP(MoP)-CoMoO3@CN nanocomposite exhibits superior electrocatalytic activity of low overpotentials of 296 mV for OER and 198 mV for HER in alkaline media. More importantly, we achieve a current density of 10 mA?cm?2 at 1.55 V by using this CoP(MoP)-CoMoO3@CN as both cathode and anode for overall water splitting. This promising performance could be due to the high activity of CoP(MoP)-CoMoO3 and the good conductivity of external mesoporous N-carbon shell, which makes the CoP(MoP)-CoMoO3@CN nanowires as a competitive alternative to noble metal based catalysts for water splitting.

Copper Nanowire Dispersion through an Electrostatic Dispersion Mechanism for High-Performance Flexible Transparent Conducting Films and Optoelectronic Devices
摘要: Highly dispersed copper nanowire (CuNW) is an essential prerequisite for its practical application in various electronic devices. At present, the dispersion of CuNW is almost realized through the steric hindrance effect of polymers. However, the high post-treatment temperature of polymers makes this dispersion mechanism impractical for many actual applications. Here, after investigating the relationships between the electrostatic dispersion force and influence factors, an electrostatic dispersion mechanism is refined by us. Under the guidance of this mechanism, high dispersion of CuNW and a record low post-treatment temperature (80 ℃ ) are realized simultaneously. The high dispersity endows CuNW with good stability (–45.66 mV) in water-based ink, high uniformity (65.7 ± 2.5 Ω sq-1) in the prepared transparent conducting film (TCF) (23 cm × 23 cm) and industrial film-preparation process which are the issues that hinder the widespread application of CuNW-based TCF at present. The low post-treatment temperature makes CuNW possible for applying on any substrate. In addition, the charge modifier, 2-mercaptoethanol, enables CuNW to resist oxidation well. Finally, flexible optoelectronic devices employing the CuNW film as the electrode are fabricated and show efficiencies comparable to those of optoelectronic devices on ITO/glass.

The photocatalytic degradation kinetics of gaseous formaldehyde flow using TiO2 nanowires
摘要: A high performance TiO2 nanowires photocatalyst was successfully prepared by a hydrothermal method to decompose gaseous formaldehyde into CO2 and H2O in a homemade tube reactor without secondary pollution under UV irradiation. The photocatalytic oxidization (PCO) kinetics fit well with the traditional Langmuir-Hinshelwood-Hougen-Watson (LHHW) model. Multiple parameters including formaldehyde concentration, flow rate, and light intensity were monitored online and proved to be key factors affecting the rate in the photocatalytic reactions. The crystallinity of photocatalyst and its surface reactive site density determined the adsorption equilibrium constant (KHCHO) of formaldehyde on TiO2. The experimental results show that the degradation kinetics of mobile gas-phase formaldehyde by TiO2 nanowires did not strictly conform to the first-order reaction kinetics, and its photocatalytic degradation rate increases with the increase of ultraviolet LED irradiation intensity. It takes only 8.6 minutes to completely degradate formaldehyde at a flow rate of 50 ml/min by 50 mg 700TiO2, and the reaction performance remains unchanged during the decomposing process of 1200 minutes.

Surface-functionalized silver nanowires on chitosan biopolymers for highly robust and stretchable transparent conducting films
摘要: We develop highly robust and stretchable conductive transparent electrodes based on silver nanowires (AgNWs) deposited on functionalized chitosan biopolymer substrates. 11-aminoundecanoic acid is introduced as a surface modifier for enhancing the chemical bond. The chemically functionalized AgNW films achieve a low sheet resistance of 12.2 ohm/sq with a high transmittance of 88.9%. In addition, stretchable alternating current-driven electroluminescent devices and stretchable transparent heaters have been fabricated with AgNW/chitosan thin-films which can be cut, stretched, bent, and twisted without performance degradation. With this approach, stretchable electronics prepared on bio-compatible substrates can be easily applied to curved surfaces or human skins.

Transparent Conductive Materials (Materials, Synthesis, Characterization, Applications) || Metal Nanowires
摘要: Metal nanowires are one-dimensional entities of metals of either single crystalline or polycrystalline nature [1]. Metal nanowires have attracted tremendous research attention since the last two decades, because of their important applications in plasmonics [2], electronics [3], electrocatalysis [4], and so on. In the past decade, researchers have attempted to coat metal nanowires on a transparent substrate as a transparent conductive ?lm (TCF) [5–7]. The visible light transparency and the conductivity of TCFs on the basis of metal nanowires have improved rapidly, being comparable with the performance of the state-of-the-art indium tin oxide (ITO) TCFs [8–10]. The recognition of the potential applications of metal nanowire TCFs stimulates research zeal for the synthesis of metal nanowires. So far, a range of metal nanowires have been synthesized, including Ag nanowires (AgNWs) [11], Au nanowires (AuNWs) [12], Cu nanowires (CuNWs) [13], and Pt nanowires [14]. Bicomponent metal nanowires, such as Cu@Ni [15], Ag@Au [16], Cu@Ag [17], Ag@Ni [18], and Cu@Pt [19] core@shell nanowires, have also been synthesized. These nanowires have been coated on a substrate to produce TCFs, and the performance has been characterized. At early stage of the research on metal nanowire TCFs, the transparency was lower than 80%, and the sheet resistance was as large as several kΩ to MΩ. Both experimental investigation and theoretical modeling have been extensively carried out to improve the performance of metal nanowire TCFs.
