A study of the structural, morphological, and optical properties of shock treated SnO2 nanoparticles: removal of Victoria blue dye

Nanostructure Sn/C Composite High-Performance Negative Electrode for Lithium Storage

“…All the observed diffraction peaks for Sn had strong intensities, where a depressed intensity diffraction peak was observed for carbon in the synthesized Sn/C composite XRD pattern. There was no other crystal phase related to a tin oxide structure observed in the Sn/C composite [34]. The observed XRD pattern of the prepared sample was a single tin crystalline structure with high-intensity diffraction peaks, as presented in Figure 1a.…”

Hydrothermal synthesis of an SnO2–rGO nanocomposite using tea extract as a reducing agent for daylight-driven photocatalyst and supercapacitors

“…As shown in Fig. 6, the inset figure corresponding to pure SnO 2 exhibits an absorption edge of 275 nm, 62–64 whereas the binary NCs exhibit absorption at a higher wavelength region. With the introduction of rGO into the SnO 2 , the absorption edge shifted towards a higher wavelength region, i.e.…”

Acoustic shock wave-induced phase transition in indium selenide: tuning band gap energy for solar cell applications

“…[11][12][13][14] Dynamic shock waves have recently been applied to a wide range of metal oxides, including CuO, 8 NiO, 15 TiO 2 , 16 ZrO 2 , 17 CaCO 3 , 18 α-Fe 2 O 3 , 19 AgO, 20 MnO 2 , 21 α-Al 2 O 3 , 22 Co 3 O 4 , 23 CeO 2 , 24 ZnO, 25 and SnO 2 (ref. 26) to test their stability against the shock wave impact and determine their suitability for a wide range of applications. However, few of the metal oxides exhibit a stable state under extreme conditions; those materials are reported as highly stable materials for aerospace applications.…”
