    Morphologies-Controlled Synthesis and Optical Properties of Bismuth Tungstate Nanocrystals by a Low-Temperature Molten Salt Method

    JOURNAL OF THE AMERICAN CERAMIC SOCIETY, Issue 5 2006

    Well-crystallized bismuth tungstate (Bi2WO6) powders with different morphologies were successfully synthesized via a low-temperature molten salt method. The powders were characterized by X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, and UV-Vis, respectively. It was found that the variation of morphology of the obtained Bi2WO6 powder mainly depends on the different reaction temperatures and the weight ratio of LiNO3,NaNO3 salt to precursor. In addition, the UV-Visible absorption spectra showed that the synthesized powders had strong light absorption properties not only in the ultraviolet light but also in the visible light region.

    Luminescence of Nanocrystalline Erbium-Doped Yttria

    ADVANCED FUNCTIONAL MATERIALS, Issue 5 2009

    Abstract In this paper, the luminescence, including photoluminescence, upconversion and cathodoluminescence, from single-crystalline erbium-doped yttria nanoparticles with an average diameter of 80,nm, synthesized by a molten salt method, is reported. Outstanding luminescent properties, including sharp and well-resolved photoluminescent lines in the infrared region, outstanding green and red upconversion emissions, and excellent cathodoluminescence, are observed from the nanocrystalline erbium-doped yttria. Moreover, annealing by the high power laser results in a relatively large increase in photoluminescent emission intensity without causing spectral line shift. These desirable properties make these nanocrystals promising for applications in display, bioanalysis and telecommunications. [source]


    Multi-component fitting XAFS analysis of molybdate species during catalyst preparation by the molten salt method

    JOURNAL OF SYNCHROTRON RADIATION, Issue 2 2001
    Nobuyuki Matsubayashi
    The goal of the present study was to elucidate the formation mechanisms of highly dispersed catalysts by the molten salt method. For this purpose, multi-component fitting Mo K-edge EXAFS analysis was applied to the structure of molybdate catalysts prepared in KNO3 and NaNO3. The analysis revealed that MoO3 dissolved in molten salts was at first transformed into polymolybdate anions and finally into MoO42- anions. The transformation into MoO42- anions took place at a lower temperature when NaNO3 was used as molten salt than KNO3. In contrast, polymolybdate anions were stable even at higher temperature when ZrO2 was added as a support of molybdate. [source]

    Preparation of tin nanocomposite as anode material by molten salts method and its application in lithium ion batteries

    PHYSICA STATUS SOLIDI (A) APPLICATIONS AND MATERIALS SCIENCE, Issue 11 2009

    Abstract A nanocomposite material (SnO2Co3O4) has been synthesized as an anode material for lithium-ion batteries by the molten salt method. Characterization by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) showed that the composite has a small particle size. The electrochemical performance was examined, including the charge,discharge and cycling properties. The experimental results showed that the sample containing the highest amount of Co3O4 compound exhibited a specific capacity of 355,mAh g,1 after 40 cycles, with cycling at 70,mA g,1 (35.2% higher than for the sample containing a lower amount of Co3O4). It seems that increasing the amount of Co3O4 can give good capacity retention and high specific capacity. [source]
