Abstract:Layer structured vanadium pentoxide (V2O5) microparticles were synthesized hydrothermally and successfully decorated by a facile wet chemical route, with ∼10–20 nm sized ruthenium nanoparticles.
“…41 peaks corresponding to V 2 O 5 are reflected distinctively, and the presence of metallic ruthenium is marked as *, as displayed in Figure 6a. 54 Similarly, the FTIR spectra (Figure 6b) display the characteristic peaks of orthorhombic V 2 O 5 at 455, 595, 809, and 1005 cm −1 . The noticeable peaks at 455 and 595 cm −1 corresponded to the symmetric and asymmetric vibrations of a triple coordinated O 2 molecule.…”
