Abstract:In this study, spinel
cobalt oxide (Co3O4) nanoparticles without combining
with any other metal atoms have
been decorated through the influence of two hard templating agents,
viz., zeolite-Y and carboxy-functionalized multiwalled carbon nanotubes
(COOH-MWCNT). The adornment of the Co3O4 nanoparticles,
through the combined impact of the aluminosilicate and carbon framework
has resulted in quantum interference, causing the reversal of signatory
Raman peaks of Co3O4. Apart from the construction
of small Co3O4 nan… Show more
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.
