The "extra" electrons in colloidal n-type ZnO nanocrystals formed by aliovalent doping and photochem. redn. are compared. Whereas the two are similar spectroscopically, they show very different electron-transfer reactivities, attributable to their differen ...
The properties of metal oxide nanocrystals in energy-related devices are strongly dependent on the presence and chem. nature of ligands at their surface, and the architectures they assume in electroactive layers. A comprehensive strategy to control these a ...
We describe recent efforts in using doped metal oxide nanocrystals in electrochromic windows to manage solar heat gain in buildings. These nanocrystals show switchable absorption properties in the IR due to their dynamically tunable surface plasmon resonan ...
Native coordinating ligands acquired during the chem. synthesis of colloidal nanocrystals are optimized primarily for their ability to exert control over nanocrystal size, compn., morphol., and dispersibility, and not necessarily for their final applicatio ...
Review. Synthetic control over inorg. nanocrystals has made dramatic strides so that a great no. of binary and a few ternary or more complex compds. can now be prepd. with good control over size and phys. properties. Recently, chemists have tackled the lon ...
The properties of metal oxide nanocrystals in energy-related devices are strongly dependent on the presence and chem. nature of ligands at their surface, and the architectures they assume in electroactive layers. The article presents a comprehensive strate ...
The embodiments described herein provide an electrochromic device. In an exemplary embodiment, the electrochromic device includes (1) a substrate and (2) a film supported by the substrate, where the film includes transparent conducting oxide (TCO) nanostru ...
The present invention provides an electrochromic nanocomposite film. In an exemplary embodiment, the electrochromic nanocomposite film, includes (1) a solid matrix of oxide based material and (2) transparent conducting oxide (TCO) nanostructures embedded i ...
The properties of tasked nanocrystals in energy-related devices are strongly dependent on the presence and chem. nature of ligands at their surface, and the architectures they assume in electroactive layers. Here we will describe an exceptionally versatile ...
Block-copolymer templating of inorg. frameworks provides a powerful route to produce periodic nanoporous materials with well-defined nanoscale architectures, controlled porosity, and high surface area. Such control is important for batteries and pseudocapa ...
