Based on the principle of fluorescence enhancing, by the strong and specific interreaction between iodide (I(-)) ions and nanoAg on the surface of graphene quantum dots/Ag (GQDs/Ag) nanocomposite, we propose a simple label-free and turn-on method for the detection of I(-) ions with high selectivity and sensitivity by using fluorescent GQDs/Ag nanocomposite in aqueous media.

Nanocomposite inks composed of nickel–silver core–shell and silver nanoparticles (NPs) can combine the advantages lower cost, high conductivity, low-temperature sintering processes, which have attracted much attention in development materials for printed flexible electronics. In this context, present paper, we report process preparation nanocomposite ink containing nanoparticles, as main filler...

In this work, at first, nano ZrO2 and Fe3O4/ZrO2 nanocomposite were prepared by sol-gel and co-precipitation methods, respectively. Then, Ag nanoparticles (Ag NPs) were mixed with themin environmentally friendly and mild conditions using C. cyanus flower extract as a reducing and stabilizing agent. The synthesized nanocomposites were characte...

Titanium dioxide has been widely used for photo-catalytic and self-cleaning activities. In this study, TiO2 /SiO2 /Co nanocomposite was prepared by sol-gel method in the presence of Polyvinyl Pyrrolidone (PVP), and Hydroxyl Propyl Cellulose (HPC) as additives, and characterized by IR spectra, Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Energy Dispersive Analytical X-Ray (EDAX), and X-Ray Diffraction (X...

Core-shell nanostructures have found applications in many fields, including surface enhanced spectroscopy, catalysis and solar cells. Titania-coated noble metal nanoparticles, which combine the surface plasmon resonance properties of the core and the photoactivity of the shell, have great potential for these applications. However, the controllable synthesis of such nanostructures remains a chal...

The robust gallium carboxylate Ga(OH)(btec)·0.5H2O (MIL-61) is selected as a parent MOF to prepare Ln-MIL-61 by PSM. This work investigates the luminescence of Ln-doped MIL-61 (Ln = Eu3+, Tb3+, Sm3+, Dy3+) in the visible light region. Upon 314 nm excitation, the emission spectra of Eu-MIL-61, Tb-MIL-61 and Eu/Tb-MIL-61 all exhibit their respective strong sharp emission bands. However, Sm-MIL-61...

Synthesis of nanosized particle of Ag-doped hydroxyapatite with antibacterial properties is in the great interest in the development of new biomedical applications. In this article, we propose a method for synthesized the Ag-doped nanocrystalline hydroxyapatite. A silver-doped nanocrystalline hydroxyapatite was synthesized at 100°C in deionized water. Other phase or impurities were not observed...
