The nanowires have been confirmed as crystalline wurtzite GaN by X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectrometry scanning electron microscope and selected-area electron diffraction. Transmission electron microscope(TEM) and scanning electron microscopy(SEM) reveal that the nanowires are amorphous and irregular, with diameters ranging from 30 nm to 80 nm and lengths up to tens of microns. Selected-area electron diffraction indicates that the nanowire with the hexagonal wurtzite structure is the single crystalline. The growth mechanism is discussed briefly.展开更多

The structure was characterized by means of XRD,TEM and ED techniques. PANI film was prepared by electro-chemistry method onto the indium-tin oxide glass. The nanoparticles were doped on PANI film by the dipping process, and the self-assembled nanoparticles-PANI composite film was acquired. The photoelectric properties of the self-assembled film were studied by PL and Z-scan method.展开更多

Films of the purified carbon nanotubes fabricated by simple drop coating showed carrier mobilities as high as 164 cm2V-1s -1 normalized transconductances of 0.78 Sm-1 and on/off current ratios of 10^6. Such high performance requires the preparation of a suspension of micrometer-long and highly purified semiconducting single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs). Our purification process includes length and electronic-type selective trapping of SWCNTs using recycling gel filtration with a mixture of surfactants. The results provide an important milestone toward printed high-speed and large-area electronics with roll-to-roll and ink-jet device fabrication.展开更多
