Journal ArticleDOI
Crystallization and Reduction of Sol-Gel-Derived Zinc Oxide Films by Irradiation with Ultraviolet Lamp
TL;DR: In this paper, structural changes in sol-gel films with photo-irradiation were investigated using zinc oxide (ZnO) derived from zinc acetate, and the exposure of the films to an ultraviolet lamp induced hexagonal ZnO crystals in a relatively dense amorphous structure.
Journal ArticleDOI
Growth conditions for wurtzite zinc oxide films in aqueous solutions
Satoshi Yamabi,Hiroaki Imai +1 more
TL;DR: A pH above 9.0 was essential for the formation of wurtzite zinc oxide (ZnO) in aqueous solution systems as discussed by the authors, and the addition of complexing agents to decrease the deposition rate was required for the direct growth of ZnO on the surface of substrates through heterogeneous nucleation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Growth of Submicrometer-Scale Rectangular Parallelepiped Rutile TiO2 Films in Aqueous TiCl3 Solutions under Hydrothermal Conditions
TL;DR: Evolution of a new morphology of rutile TiO2 films consisting of nearly single-crystalline parallelepipeds was achieved through hydrothermal treatments of aqueous TiCl3 solutions in the presence of NaCl.
Journal ArticleDOI
Synthesis of silica nanoparticles having a well-ordered mesostructure using a double surfactant system.
TL;DR: Mesoporous silica nanoparticles (20-50 nm) having a well-ordered hexagonal mesostructure were produced using a mixture of cationic surfactant as a template and nonionic block copolymer as a suppressant of grain growth.
Journal ArticleDOI
Direct preparation of anatase TiO2 nanotubes in porous alumina membranes
TL;DR: In this article, a monodisperse hollow nanocylinders consisting of crystalline titania particles were directly prepared in a porous alumina membrane by a deposition technique using an aqueous solution system of titanium tetrafluoride.
