TL;DR: A series of multishelled ZnO hollow microspheres with controlled shell number and inter-shell spacing have been successfully prepared by a simple carbonaceous microsphere templating method, whose large surface area and complex mult ishelled hollow structure enable them to load sufficient dyes and multi-reflect the light for enhancing light harvesting.

TL;DR: Titania nanoparticles (P25) are successfully chemically bonded with graphdiyne (GD) nanosheets by a facile hydrothermal treatment, to form a novel nanocomposite photocatalyst that exhibits higher photocatalytic activity for degrading methylene blue under UV irradiation and might find potential application in a wide range of fields including air purification and waste water treatment.

TL;DR: A compositional transformation from binary matchsticklike Cu2S-In 2S3 nanorods to pure In2S3nanorods was successfully achieved by reaction with 1,10-phenanthroline, a reagent that strongly and selectively binds to Cu(+), which formed a solid experimental basis for further discussion of the growth mechanisms for differently shaped and structured nanocrystals.

TL;DR: Wurtzite CuInS2-ZnS heterostructured nanorods were synthesized via a seed-assisted synthetic route in this paper, which can be tuned from burning torch-like to longer rod-like by varying the concentration of added indium.

TL;DR: In this paper, high quality Cu(I)-doped CdS [CdS:Cu(I)] nanocrystals were synthesized by thermolysis of metal acetylacetonate complexes in n-dodecanethiol.
