Third-order nonlinear optical properties of chemically synthesized copper oxide nanosheets

Hydrothermal synthesis and optical properties of single crystalline CuO nanosheets

“…High frequency emitted light corresponding to high bandgap energy E g can be obtained when the electrons are excited from nanoscaled materials. As a result, the absorption band is shifted to high energy and blue shift behavior can be observed [14].…”

“…To date, a large quantity of CuO nanostructures with different morphologies such as nanoparticles [5], one dimensional (1D) nanowires [6], nanorods [7] and nanoneedles [8], 2D nanosheets [9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19] and nanoplates [20], 3D complex hierarchical nanostructures [21][22][23][24][25][26][27] have been synthesized. Among these morphologies, 2D sheet-like CuO nanostructures attracted much attention because of their nanoscaled thickness [9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19].…”

“…However, most of these papers were focused on the magnetic properties [13], gas sensing properties [9], nonlinear optical properties [14] and supercapacitor properties [10]. To our knowledge, detailed study of optical properties such as PL spectrum, Raman spectrum and Uv-vis absorption spectrum of CuO nanosheets are few.…”

Synthesis and biological evaluation of PEGylated CuO nanoparticles

“…[8][9][10] Solution pH and temperature are the factors which affect the mixed potential, and thus the most stable chemical species can be changed by the pH and temperature. 26,27 The stabilization of CuO NPs occurs in the temperature range of 150 to 160 o C in reaction time longer than 4 hours. By differentiating both the molecular weight (MW) of the surfactant and the reaction times, NPs in a range of primary sizes can be isolated, in accordance with PEG MW that has a strong influence on the viscosity of the solution.…”

A Green Strategy to Synthesize Environment Friendly Metal Oxide Nanoparticles for Potential Applications – A Review

“…Metal oxides can be synthesized by chemical methods such as sol-gel [1], hydrothermal [2], microwave [3], coprecipitation [4], sonochemical [5], solvothermal [6], and laser ablation method [7]. In the conventional methods, chemicals such as hydrazine monohydrate [8], cetyltrimethyl ammonium bromide [8], and polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP) [9] are used as reducing reagent and capping agent. It leads to toxicity and is potentially hazardous.…”
