This report outlines the techniques required to obtain and interpret Coherent X-ray Diffraction (CXD) imaging measurements for crystalline materials. ZnO will be introduced as the principle material under investigation with a brief overview of research to date. Chemical Vapour Transport Deposition (CVTD) was used to synthesise ZnO nanorods, initially Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) determine...

in the present work, we report the synthesis of binary nano metal oxides such as zinc /copper oxide via novel dry synthetic methods such as thermal decomposition of oxalate precursor. the synthesis route involves facile solid-phase mechanochemical activation of a physical mixture of simple copper/zinc salts and oxalic acid, followed by calcination of the as-ground oxalate precursors at 450◦c. x...

in this work facile sol-gel (pechni) method has been successfully established to synthesize zn4b6o13 nanocrystals which have cubic crystals with lattice parameter: a =7.48 a. the structure and morphology of the obtained material were studied by x-ray diffraction (xrd), infrared spectra (ir), scanning electron microscopy (sem) and photoluminescence analysis. the experimental results show a band ...

Pressure-induced structural transformations in spherical and faceted gallium arsenide nanocrystals of various shapes and sizes are investigated with a parallel molecular-dynamics approach. The results show that the pressure for zinc blende to rocksalt structural transformation depends on the nanocrystal size, and all nanocrystals undergo nonuniform deformation during the transformation. Spheric...

One-dimensional (1D) coordination polymer, [Zn(4,4´-bpy)(H2O)4](ADC).4H2O (1) (4,4´-bpy = 4,4´-bipyridine and H2ADC = acetylenedicarboxylic acid), and three-dimensional (3D) metal-organic framework (MOF), Zn(ADC)2.(HTEA)2(2) (HTEA = triethylamine) were prepared at room temperature. The compounds were characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction and powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) analyses....

in order to compare the effects of different spraying of nano zinc oxide and zinc oxide, the arable irrigated wheat was conducted in two separate trials in 2011-2014 lands of abadeh city.experiments were conducted in a randomized complete block design, with five treatments and five replications.in the first experiment, treatments included the application of nano zinc oxide to five levels ( 0 , ...

The pure and PVA capped ZnS nanocrystals were synthesized by hydrothermal method using zinc nitrate and thioacetamide as the zinc source and sulphur source respectively. The XRD patterns confirmed the formation of cubic phase ZnS nanoparticles with particle sizes 32.6nm and 30.6nm respectively for the pure and PVA capped nanocrystals. The SEM micrographs show the improvement in the particle siz...

sphere-like shaped cobalt oxide nanoparticles (co3o4) were synthesized by a simple wet chemical method using cobalt chloride as precursor and cetyl trimethylammonium bromide (ctab) as surfactant. their structural and surface morphologial properties were characterized by high resolution transmission electron microscopy (hrtem), field emission scanning electron microscopy (fesem) and x-ray diffra...
