Crystalline zinc oxide (ZnO) particles with different morphologies have been synthesized by the hydrothermal method under the magnetic field. It is found that the magnetic field influences the nucleation and growth of ZnO crystals. ZnO crystals obtained under high pulsed magnetic field were more uniform and well integrated.
Nanocrystal MnO2 was successful synthesized by hydrothermal method under pulsed magnetic field. The effect of pulsed magnetic field on the nucleation and growth of MnO2 was studied by XRD and SEM analysis. It was found that the morphology of MnO2 has been changed comparing without magnetic field. However, there were no different phases presented when pulsed magnetic field was applied.
Nanocrystalline CO 3 O 4 particles were successfully synthesized by hydrothermal method under pulsed magnetic field. The effect of magnetic field and aging time on the morphology and microstructure were examined. Different morphologies were observed from SEM images for the samples fabricated with or without pulsed magnetic field. The pulsed magnetic field made CO 3 O 4 sphere compact and more smooth surface. The hollow sphere morphology and refined grain of CO 3 O 4 were formed after aging process.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
