The use of nanomaterials has been shown to be promising in potential applications such as magnetic storage devices, nano-optical devices and sensors, amongst others. Such applications require the disposition of nanoparticles, of a wide variety of materials ...
In recent years a wide range of materials including metals, semiconductors and metal oxides have been synthesized with nanometer dimensions. In particular II–VI semiconductor nanocrystals (NCs) are receiving considerable attention for fundamental studies a ...
This study presents a comparative approach to investigate the potentials of two innovative methods for the synthesis of ZnO and Al-doped ZnO. The first method is a precipitation system working in mild hydrothermal conditions (90°C) using a tubular reactor ...
Highly homogeneous and luminescent CdSe colloidal nanocrystals in the less common zinc blende crystal structure have been obtained at high temperature in a noncoordinating organic solvent. The key parameter appears to be the addition of a phosphonic acid t ...
Following the current interest in transition metal doped dielectrics for spintronic applications, Mn-doped ZnO is being made by thermal decomposition of Mn-doped hydrozincite, (MnxZn1–x)5(OH)6–2n (CO3)1+n, precursors that have been prepared by a novel syn ...
Topographic nanostructuring of surfaces is a promising concept, in particular to improve the bio-integration of titanium orthopedic implants. In this context, a new method for the nanostructuring of anodised titanium surfaces was developed. Ordered topogra ...
The structural and optical properties of three different kinds of GaAs nanowires with 100% zinc-blende structure and with an average of 30% and 70% wurtzite are presented. A variety of shorter and longer segments of zinc-blende or wurtzite crystal phases a ...
Current optical storage devices such as DVDs have their read/write capabilities fundamentally restricted by the diffraction limit of light. We present an optofluidic architecture for storing cocktails of colloidal quantum dots in electroactive nanowell str ...
The organic polymers incorporating inorganic nanoparticles can result in material possessing with unique size-dependent properties, such as mechanical, optical, electrical, thermal and magnetic, that can be istinctively conveyed into the composite by the s ...
This thesis presents an experimental study of the energy and time-resolved optical response of chemically prepared CdSe nanoparticles with different sizes, shapes (dots, rods, and tetrapods), and lattice structures (wurtzite and zinc blende). The first par ...
