Photoluminescence, photocatalytic and solar cell behaviors of as-prepared Germania nanoparticles from a sol–gel route

GeO2 Thin Film Deposition on Graphene Oxide by the Hydrogen Peroxide Route: Evaluation for Lithium-Ion Battery Anode

“…However, we have not found any report on germanium oxide film formation by the Pechini method. The few reported protocols of the application of the Pechini method for germanium yield nanocrystalline germania particles, unless a supporting network of another oxide (e.g., bismuth) is added. , …”

“…However, we have not found any report on germanium oxide film formation by the Pechini method. The few reported protocols of the application of the Pechini method for germanium yield nanocrystalline germania particles, 29 unless a supporting network of another oxide (e.g., bismuth) is added. 30,31 Under basic conditions, germanium is in the form of hydroxogermanate complexes of low nuclearity, and addition of an antisolvent would give, in the best case, germanate salts rather than germania.…”

Tl4CdI6 Nanostructures: Facile Sonochemical Synthesis and Photocatalytic Activity for Removal of Organic Dyes

“…The hydroxyl radical is known as one of the strong oxidizing agents and it was attached to the dye molecule and furnished the oxidized product. These reactions could be summarized in the following reactions. − The percentage of degradation was deliberate as eq where A 0 and A t are the absorbencies of the liquid sample at 0 and t min, respectively . It was observed that about 71.8%, 85.7%, 69.0%, and 49.1% methyl orange, acid black 1, rhodamine B, and methylene blue were degraded after 110 min for Tl 4 CdI 6 nanostructures, respectively (Scheme ).…”
