Electrochemical heavy metal detection, photocatalytic, photoluminescence, biodiesel production and antibacterial activities of Ag–ZnO nanomaterial

TLDR
In this paper, the results reveal that Ag-ZnO Nps shows the better photocatalytic activity compared to undoped ZnO nps, and also developed sensor which showed a linearity in the concentration range 50-350 nM and limit of detection was found to be 3.5 and 3.8 nM (3σ) for lead and cadmium respectively.

Oxygen-induced degradation in AgBiS<sub>2</sub> nanocrystal solar cells

TL;DR: In this article , the effects of oxygen and light on the stability of AgBiS2 nanocrystal solar cells and identify its dependence on the charge extraction layers were explored, showing that tetramethylammonium iodide ligands enable their oxidation, leading to the formation of bismuth oxide and silver sulphide.

ZnO - nanostructures, defects, and devices

TL;DR: ZnO has received much attention over the past few years because it has a wide range of properties that depend on doping, including a range of conductivity from metallic to insulating (including n-type and p-type conductivity), high transparency, piezoelectricity, widebandgap semiconductivity, room-temperature ferromagnetism, and huge magneto-optic and chemical-sensing effects.
