We have studied the nucleation kinetics in the bulk as well as at the container walls of a charged sphere colloidal model system under salt-free conditions close to the fluid–crystal phase boundary. We determined time resolved nucleation rate densities for heterogeneous nucleation on the wall, the corresponding nuclea…

Though the fabrication of ZnO nanostructures is economical and low temperature, the lack of a facile, reliable and low temperature methodology to tune its electrical conductivity has prevented it from competing with other semiconductors. Here, we carried out surface modification of ZnO nanowires using ammonia plasma w…

Oxidation is an important route for the activation of chemical feedstocks for the synthesis of chemical intermediates. Alkene epoxidation by the electrophilic addition of oxygen to a carbon–carbon double bond is a major challenge in oxidation catalysis. In particular it is important to use molecular oxygen as the oxid…

In this theoretical paper, we interpret and predict the optical properties of nanodiamond (ND) particles containing different luminescence centres. Specifically, we modelled nitrogen, nickel and chromium embedded into the ND crystal lattice. In the case of nitrogen centres containing ND particles, we also studied the…

The electronic structure and optical properties of a one-electron quantum dot (QD) were investigated by assuming a spherically symmetric confining potential of finite depth. In this particular case CdSe is surrounded by ZnS. The energy eigenvalues and wave functions dependence on QD dimension were calculated by using…

Remarkable enhancement and quenching of photo-luminescent emissions have been found in various mixed-lanthanide carboxylate polymers. In (Eu0.1:Tb99.9)2(2,2-biphenate)3(H2O)2 the Eu emission is comparable to the Eu homo-polymer, whilst the original Tb emission is reduced by ca. 80%. Either sensitized energy transfer o…

The synthesis protocol for Ge-imogolite (aluminogermanate nanotubes) consists of 3 main steps: base hydrolysis of a solution of aluminum and germanium monomers, stabilization of the suspension and heating at 95 °C. The successful synthesis of these nanotubes was found to be sensitive to the hydrolysis step. The impact…

We have investigated the influence of 38 kinds of metal ions on photochromism in BaMgSiO4 (BMS). We have found that the doped Fe ions are the most effective to enhance the photochromism. The Fe-doped BMS shows great sensitivity to blue light (wavelength λ = 405 nm) and turns bright pink. The colored Fe-doped BMS is bl…

Large low field magnetoresistance (LFMR) of about 28% is observed in La0.67Sr0.33MnO3 nanowires with 80 nm in diameter at T=300 K. A gradual decrease in the LFMR has been found with increase in wire diameter. The LFMR drops to zero for wires above 280 nm in diameter. The nanowires are grown by means of electrospinning…
