The as-synthesized samples were found to have hexagonal wurtzite coexisted with the intermediate Zn5(OH)sC12·H2O phase, while the single hexagonal phase was facilitated due to the calcinations. The as obtained samples were broadly composed ofnanoflakes while the highly crystalline nanorods were formed due to low temperature annealing of the as-synthesized samples. The crystallite size of the nanoflakes and nanorods (40-90 nm) were extracted from the XRD pattern which was found to be consistent with scanning electron microscopy (SEM) measurements. The photoluminescence (PL) spectra of nanophosphors showed bright red and orange emissions at 618 and 594 nm respectively with efficient broad blue green emis- sion spectrum due to ZnO lattice. Further, a good energy transfer process from ZnO host to Eu3+ was observed in PL emission and excitation spectra of Eu3+ doped ZnO ions. In all, the present nanophosphors were found to have great potentiality for bio-appli- cations.展开更多

X 射线衍射和扫描电子显微镜检测结果表明:助剂的加入对催化剂的形貌影响不大,仍为片状结构;平均粒径为5~10 nm.程序升温还原和脱附表征结果表明:助剂 Li,Sr并未进入 NiO 晶格;而助剂 Y,Fe,La 与 Ni 之间具有相互作用,因而影响催化剂的理化性质和催化活性.其中, Fe 掺杂的片状氧化镍催化剂对乙烯的选择性和收率均有所改善,340℃时 NiFeO 催化剂上的乙烯收率可达18.2%.展开更多

Nickel acetyl acetonate (Ni(ac ac)2) was used as nickel precursor for both MNNP and CNONF and NiCO3●2Ni(OH)2●nH2O was utilized for NONP. Organic alcohols including 1-hexanol and benzyl alcohol were used as solvent to produce all powders. The crystallite sizes of MNNP, NONP and CNONF were determined by X-ray diffraction (XRD) to be 30, 9 and 27 nm, respectively. Electron microscopy indicated final particle sizes of 80 nm and 20 nm for MNNP and NONP, respectively and a thickness-layer less than 90 nm for CNONF. Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) experiment determined a high surface area of 68 m2/gr for CNONF.展开更多
