The optical properties of bismuth nanowires
The optical absorption of bismuth nanowires in the energy (wavenumber) range of 600 4000cm-1 is studied. Optical reflection and transmission spectra reveal that bismuth nanowires have a large and intense absorption peak as well as several smaller absorption peaks which are not measured in bulk bismuth. The smaller absorption peaks fit reasonably well to theoretical models for intersubband absor...
متن کاملSynthesis of sub-20-nm-sized bismuth 1-D structures using gallium-bismuth systems.
Bismuth (Bi) nanowires are interesting one-dimensional systems due to the significant quantum confinement effects exhibited as a function of the wire diameters, and synthesizing Bi nanowires with sizes below 20 nm is of fundamental importance in understanding quantum effects. Here, we report a bulk synthesis method to synthesize ultrafine Bi nanowires and a new morphology of bismuth nanostructu...
متن کاملColloidal Bismuth Nanoparticles: Synthesis and Uv-vis Absorption
Quantum-confined Bi structures (quantum wells and quantum wires) are currently being studied for their varies novel properties. We now pursue the next level of quantum confinement in bismuth, quantum dots. In this work, we present a technique for the synthesis of bismuth nanoparticles using an inverse microemulsion method. To prevent air-oxidation in the characterization stage, poly(vinylpyrrol...
متن کاملIon exchange growth of Zinc Sulfide quantum dots in aqueous solution
We report the growth by ion exchange synthesis of ZnS nanoparticles in MCM-41 matrices using Zn (CH3COO)2 and Na2S starting sources. The final product (ZnS/MCM-41) was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) pattern, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), infrared spectrometry (IR) and UV-vis spectroscopy. Its crystalline st...
