in this scientific research zns nanoparticle was synthesized via precipitation method. two samples were synthesized by this method. the nanoparticle was characterized by xrd techniques, and the size and kind of crystallinity were identified by x-ray diffraction pattern as well. the size measurement has been done by using scherrer's equation. the average sizes of nanoparticles in two sample...

InP quantum dots (QDs) are promising down-conversion phosphors for white light LEDs. However, the mainstream QDs synthesis uses expensive phosphorus source. Here, economic, in situ-generated PH3 is used to synthesize and a two-step coating of ZnS shells developed prepare highly luminescent InP/ZnS/ZnS QDs. The show photoluminescence yield as high 78.5%. emission can be tuned by adjusting halide...

High-density and well-aligned ZnO-ZnS core-shell nanocone arrays were synthesized on fluorine-doped tin oxide glass substrate using a facile and cost-effective two-step approach. In this synthetic process, the ZnO nanocones act as the template and provide Zn2+ ions for the ZnS shell formation. The photoluminescence spectrum indicates remarkably enhanced luminescence intensity and a small redshi...

Luminescent solar concentrator (LSC) incorporated with quantum dots (QDs) have been widely regarded as one of the most important development trends of cost-effective solar energy. In this study, for the first time we report a new QDs-LSC integrated with heavy metal free CuInS2/ZnS core/shell QDs with large Stokes shift and high optical efficiency. The as-prepared CuInS2/ZnS QDs possess advantag...

We have investigated the chemical state of In(Zn)P/ZnS core/shell nanocrystals (NCs) for color conversion applications using hard X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) and photoluminescence excitation (PLE). Analyses of the edge energies as well as the X-ray absorption fine structure (XAFS) reveal that the Zn(2+) ions from ZnS remain in the shell while the S(2-) ions penetrate into the core at an...

The thermal stability of ZnS nanowires grown in a Au/Pd-mediated vapor-liquid-solid manner was studied by using an X-ray diffractrometer equipped with an in-situ heating system. Using an in-situ heating X-ray system, we monitored the structural degradation of ZnS nanowires in the temperature range from 25 ◦C to 900 ◦C. From the X-ray diffraction data recorded from 25 ◦C to 900 ◦C, the as-synthe...

High quality ZnS thin films are important for light emitting diodes based on ZnS, which is a very efficient phosphor. To improve as grown, molecular beam epitaxial, ~111!-oriented cubic ZnS films, where defects were introduced due to the large mismatch between ZnS and a sapphire substrate (;20%), the ZnS was recrystallized by annealing at temperatures in the 825– 1000 °C range, and sulfur press...

Important physicochemical characteristics of water like dissolved oxygen content, pH, and so forth were found to change in a dose dependent manner, showing a negative correlation with the nanoparticle concentration, when ZnS nanoparticle (NP) was exposed to water. This observation could be attributed to the enhanced photooxidation property associated with ZnS in its NP form. Under this situatio...

The growing usage of nanoparticles of zinc sulfide as quantum dots and biosensors calls for a theoretical assessment of interactions of ZnS with biomolecules. We employ the molecular-dynamics-based umbrella sampling method to determine potentials of mean force for 20 single amino acids near the ZnS (110) surface in aqueous solutions. We find that five amino acids do not bind at all and the bind...

Uric acid (UA) is a kind of purine metabolism product and important in clinical diagnosis. In this work, we present a study of ZnS nanostructures-based electrochemical and photoelectrochemical biosensors for UA detection. Through a simple hydrothermal method and varying the ratio of reaction solvents, we obtained ZnS nanomaterials of one-dimensional to three-dimensional morphologies and they we...
