Shape-controlled solvothermal synthesis of bismuth subcarbonate nanomaterials

Nanomaterials and the environment: A review for the biennium 2008–2010

“…From the listed NMs, cobalt ferrites [125], organically modified iron oxide NPs [126], colloidalsupported metal NPs [127], cryptomelane-type manganese dioxide NMs [128], TiO 2 nanorods [129], and magnetically recyclable Au@Co core-shell NPs [130] show catalytic activity. The new nanoproducts with potential medical applications include bismuth subcarbonate NPs [131], lipid-modified cationic poly(fluorenylene phenylene) [132], celecoxib NPs [133], metastable Fe-Ni NPs [134], silver-carbene [135], functionalized YF 3 :Yb 3+ /Er 3+ [136]. Nanomaterials with applications in electronics include lithium complexes [137], copper-selenium complexes [138], Co-B NMs [139], and silicates-rubber-polypyrrole complexes [140].…”

In-Situ Hydrothermal Synthesis of Bi–Bi2O2CO3 Heterojunction Photocatalyst with Enhanced Visible Light Photocatalytic Activity

“…The HRTEM images of Bi 2 O 2 CO 3 and Bi–Bi 2 O 2 CO 3 exhibit a high crystallinity of Bi 2 O 2 CO 3 nanosheet and Bi nanoparticles as given in Fig. 2c, d. The inter-planar distance between the fringes are about 0.276 and 0.32 nm, which correspond to the (110) crystal plane of Bi 2 O 2 CO 3 and (012) crystal plane of Bi nanoparticles, respectively [38, 47]. The selected area electron diffraction (SAED) pattern obtained from the HRTEM images (Fig.…”

Three dimensional Z-scheme (BiO) 2 CO 3 /MoS 2 with enhanced visible light photocatalytic NO removal

“…As a typical Bi-based semiconductor, (BiO)2CO3 has received increasing interest because of its promising applications in antibacterial, sensing, super capacitor and photocatalysis [10][11][12][13]. A variety of morphologies including hollow microspheres, rose-like and persimmon-like (BiO)2CO3 have been sucessfully prepared [14][15][16].…”
