Abstract
Ag doped BiO nanopowders (NPs) were produced by pulsed electron beam evaporation (PEBE) under vacuum. The solid phase synthesis in an electric furnace on air was used for silver doping of bismuth oxide. Different physicochemical properties of NPs have been studied. The specific surface area of (SSA) Ag- BiO NPs was 23.7 m/g. Air annealing (200 °C) caused decreased crystallinity and an increase in the SSA of both pure and Ag-doped bismuth oxide. The dominant phase in not annealed/annealed Ag doped BiO NPs at 200 °C and 300 °C was β -phase BiO. The thermal stability of the pure and Ag-doped BiO NPs was maintained at 300–350 °C. The phase transition β→α occurred with a further increase in temperature. The annealing temperature could effectively change the physicochemical properties of the BiO NPs.
期刊介绍:
Nano-Structures & Nano-Objects is a new journal devoted to all aspects of the synthesis and the properties of this new flourishing domain. The journal is devoted to novel architectures at the nano-level with an emphasis on new synthesis and characterization methods. The journal is focused on the objects rather than on their applications. However, the research for new applications of original nano-structures & nano-objects in various fields such as nano-electronics, energy conversion, catalysis, drug delivery and nano-medicine is also welcome. The scope of Nano-Structures & Nano-Objects involves: -Metal and alloy nanoparticles with complex nanostructures such as shape control, core-shell and dumbells -Oxide nanoparticles and nanostructures, with complex oxide/metal, oxide/surface and oxide /organic interfaces -Inorganic semi-conducting nanoparticles (quantum dots) with an emphasis on new phases, structures, shapes and complexity -Nanostructures involving molecular inorganic species such as nanoparticles of coordination compounds, molecular magnets, spin transition nanoparticles etc. or organic nano-objects, in particular for molecular electronics -Nanostructured materials such as nano-MOFs and nano-zeolites -Hetero-junctions between molecules and nano-objects, between different nano-objects & nanostructures or between nano-objects & nanostructures and surfaces -Methods of characterization specific of the nano size or adapted for the nano size such as X-ray and neutron scattering, light scattering, NMR, Raman, Plasmonics, near field microscopies, various TEM and SEM techniques, magnetic studies, etc .
