Two step synthesis of ZnO/Ag and ZnO/Au core/shell nanocomposites: Structural, optical and electrical property analysis

Microwave-assisted synthesis of ZnO nanoflakes: structural, optical and dielectric characterization

“…This process is known as a near band-edge transition of ZnO [23]. Similar results related to the UV emission band were recorded by Senthilkumar et al (2018) [29]. As can be seen in figure 3(a), the violet emission in the visible region centered at 427 nm.…”

High Tunability of Size Dependent Optical Properties of ZnO@M@Au (M = SiO2, In2O3, TiO2) Core/Spacer/Shell Nanostructure

“…Then, using Eq. (11) and the relation = −∇ , we find the magnitude of the electric field inside the core to be,…”

“…For instance, in [8], triple layered ZnO@Ag@ZnO explained by both experimentally and theoretically the effect of plasmon-exciton coupling on optical properties, in M. Liu et al [9], reported experimentally the influence of spacer, in the other paper [10], reported the biological application of triple layered CSNS. As explain in detail in [11], CSNS combine in different way, among these and triple layered CSNS, semiconductor-semiconductor-metal in one the most important combination. As far as my knowledge, triple layered metal Au coated materials are archetypal system for the study of exciton-exciton-plasmon interaction for optical and other applications with high tunability, is not studied yet.…”

Synthesis of hierarchical porous ZnO/Ag microspheres with enhanced photocatalytic activity

“…To improve the catalytic activity of ZnO, the heterostructure semiconductor formed by ZnO and noble metals is a promising hybrid material. In this material, noble metal, as photoelectrons trapping agents, can enhance the separation efficiency of electrons and holes on the surface of ZnO, thereby increasing the number of active photoelectric charges and improving the photocatalytic activity [24–29]. Among noble metals, silver (Ag) is used as the most commonly composite object.…”
