ELECTROSPRAY AS A NOVEL ELECTROCHEMICAL WAY FOR THE SYNTHESIS OF NANOSTRUCTURED MATERIALS

Structural and Optical Properties of Novel Surfactant Coated Yb@TiO2 Nanoparticles.

Synthesis and physico-chemical characterization of gold nanoparticles

ytterbium nanoparticles: properties, recent synthesis, developments and prespectives

Material science interest is more and more directed to the synthesis and characterization of nano-sized particles. This interest is justified by the fact that the reduction of the particle size of a given material to the nanometer scale causes the rising up of exotic properties that are not present in the bulk state due to size-dependent quantum effects and huge increase of the interfacial species. Further striking features can be gained by controlling nanoparticle shape or through the building up of spatially ordered mono-, bi- and three-dimensional nanoparticle arrays. Then, the wise selection of the nanoparticle synthetic strategy offers the possibility of preparing a wide class of novel…
