We demonstrate through PdO doping that creation of heterojunctions on Co3O4 nanoparticles can quantitatively adjust band-gap and Fermi energy levels to study the impact of metal oxide nanoparticle semiconductor properties on cellular redox homeostasis and hazard potential. Flame spray pyrolysis (FSP) was used to synthesize a nanoparticle library in which the gradual increase in the PdO content ...

The gout is mainly found due to accumulation of uric acid crystals into the joints which produces inflammatory symptoms. Thus, it highly demanded detect from our body. Herein, we prepare a composite material cobalt oxide (Co3O4) with hydroxide functionalized multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) by hydrothermal method. used for modification glassy electrode (GCE) and investigated electrochemic...

Herein, we propose for the first time visible light photodetector based on n-type ZnO nanorods decorated with p-type Co3O4 nanowires. The heterojunction was fabricated fluorine doped tin oxide (FTO) glass substrate by low temperature aqueous chemical growth method. exhibits nanorod morphology and cobalt possesses nanowire shape sharp tail. Energy dispersive spectroscopy confirmed presence of Zn...

In this paper, single crystalline octahedral Co3O4 with dimensions about 100–500 nm and smooth surface has been prepared by solid-state thermal decomposition of cobalt(II) Schiff base complex Co((3,4-MeO-ba)2 en)Cl2 as new precursor at 450ºC under air atmosphere for 3.5 h. Surface morphology of the products were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), X-ray powder ...

In this research work, we report a simple method called reflux condensation method for synthesizing Co3O4 nanoparticles using cheap chemicals such as, cobalt acetate (precursor salt), sodium monododecyl sulphate - SDS (surfactant) and N, N - Dimethylformamide - DMF (solvent). The prepared materials were heat treated at 200, 400, 600 and 800 oC for each 2 h to get phase pure product. The calcine...

In this work, p-type oxide semiconductors, Co3O4 and complex oxides NixCo3−xO4 (x = 0.04, 0.07, 0.1), were studied as materials for sub-ppm H2S sensing in the temperature range of 90–300 °C dry humid air. Nanocrystalline 0.1) prepared by coprecipitation cobalt nickel oxalates from nitrate solutions further annealing at 300 °C. The surface reactivity obtained toward both atmosphere (relative hum...

To fully exploit the superiority of tubular structures, in this study, we systematically explore optimal preparation conditions for Ni/Co3O4, including cation species and content, additive anion species. Our results reveal that formation an initial cobalt nickel acetate hydroxide prism is key factor directly affects final microtubular structure. Moreover, P subsequently doped into Ni/Co3O4 latt...

Large Li2O2 aggregations can produce high-capacity of lithium oxygen (Li-O2) batteries, but the larger ones usually lead to less-efficient contact between Li2O2 and electrode materials. Herein, a hierarchical cathode architecture based on different discharge characteristics of α-MnO2 and Co3O4 is constructed, which can enable the embedded growth of large Li2O2 aggregations to solve this problem...

The preparation of nanostructure type manganese oxide and cobalt oxide materials with the smallest particle size is reported here. The nanorod manganese oxide and cobalt oxide nanotube were prepared via a sol-gel reaction in reverse micelles from KMnO4 and CoCl2 with respectively source at room-temperature. The structure and surface morphology of the obtained manganese oxide were studied by mea...
