Growth and Characterization of Zinc Oxide (ZnO) Nanostructures for Photovotaic Applications
Author: Basma El Zein
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 195
Book Description
We identified that the growth parameters are vital to control the crystallinity, morphology and the defect levels in the synthesized ZnO nanowires. SEM, XRD, TEM, HRTEM analysis show that the nanostructures are highly crystalline and are vertically oriented. We also report the in-situ growth of PbS nanoparticles without linker on the surface of well -oriented ZnO NWs by (SILAR) technique. The PbS Nanoparticles are packed tightly on the surface of the ZnO Nanowires with different sizes and densities, without insulating nature organic ligands, which might affect both the electronic structure at the interface and the electron - transfer rate. The SEM, TEM, HRTEM, PL and XRD analysis, confirm the attachment of the spherical shape polycrystalline PbS nanoparticles. We propose at the end of the thesis the p-PbS /n-ZnO hetero-junction with its future applications in solar cells.

Zinc-Based Nanostructures for Environmental and Agricultural Applications
Author: Kamel A. Abd-Elsalam
Publisher: Elsevier
ISBN: 0128236566
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 678
Book Description
Zinc-Based Nanostructures for Environmental and Agricultural Applications shows how zinc nanostructures are being used in agriculture, food and the environment. The book has been divided into two parts: Part I deals with the synthesis and characterization of zinc-based nanostructures such as biogenic, plant, microbial, and actinobacteria mediated synthesis of zinc nanoparticles, Part II is focused on agri-food applications such as antibacterial, antifungal, antimicrobial, plant disease management, controlling post-harvest diseases, pesticide sensing and degradations, plant promotions, ZnO nanostructure for food packaging application, safe animal food and feed supplement, elimination of mycotoxins, and veterinary applications. Part III reviews technological developments in environmental applications such as risks and benefits for aquatic organisms and the marine environment, antiseptic activity and toxicity mechanisms, wastewater treatment, and zinc oxide-based nanomaterials for photocatalytic degradation of environmental and agricultural pollutants. The book discusses various aspects, including the application of zinc-based nanostructures to enhance plant health and growth, the effect on soil microbial activity, antimicrobial mechanism, phytotoxicity and accumulation in plants, the possible impact of zinc-based nanostructures in the agricultural sector as nanofertilizer, enhancing crop productivity, and other possible antimicrobial mechanisms of ZnO nanomaterials. Explores the impact of a large variety of zinc-based nanostructures on agri-food and environment sectors Outlines how the properties of zinc-based nanostructures mean they are particularly efficient in environmental and agricultural application areas Assesses the major challenges of synthesizing and processing zinc-based nanostructured materials

Synthesis and Characterization of Zinc Oxide Complex Nanostructures
Author: Dinghao Tang
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Electronic books
Languages : en
Pages : 63
Book Description
Zinc Oxide nanostructures are important for many applications, specifically for developing novel catalysts and sensors which our research group has been working on. The objectives of this thesis are: (1) synthesis and characterization of complex ZnO nanostructures; (2) development of synthesis protocols for high-yield and reliable synthesis of nanostructures. In this thesis, chapter 1 introduces the background of nanoscience and nanotechnology, with a focus on nanomaterials. In chapter 2, the fundamental knowledge of ZnO and relevant characterization techniques are introduced, specifically the crystallography of ZnO wurtzite structure and the scanning (transmission) electron microscopy. Several goals have been achieved and they are reported in chapter 3 and 4. First, the nano-pyramid decorated microwires were fabricated. A growth mechanism for those complex nanostructures was proposed. Second, surface modification such as grooved surfaces of ZnO nanostructures has been realized. Grooved nanowires, microbelts, and micrometer-scale tetra-pods are discussed. Third, the effects of oxygen partial pressure on the growth of ZnO have been investigated. All the ZnO nanostructures reported in this thesis were synthesized by a physical vapor deposition method. The field-emission scanning electron microscope was used to examine the morphologies of the synthesized nanostructures. Aberration-corrected scanning transmission electron microscopy provided information on the fabricated nanostructures.
