Assembly of CdS nanorods (8 × 100 nm) into vertically aligned arrays over very large areas on a substrate either as a monolayer or several multilayers is shown by electrophoresis.
Spontaneous elongation from nanorod to nanowire in the presence of an amine is reported for nanocrystals of cadmium sulfide and silver sulfide (cation exchanged from CdS). Elongation occurs instantaneously where the final ...
Coulomb repulsion due to the surface charge on semi-conductor nanorods works against the dipole–dipole attraction that tends to direct the nanorods to self-assemble; the nature of this self-assembly for CdSe nanorods can ...
Gold tip size and multiplicity is controlled in hybrid gold-semiconductor nanorods (CdS-Au, CdSe-Au and CdTe-Au) in fast reaction times of less than 2 minutes by optimising precursor type, concentration, and temperature. ...
Hematite nanorod arrays were activated through proper control of annealing conditions. The 100-fold improvement in photocurrent was correlated with increased absorption and Sn doping from the tin oxide
coated glass ...
A facile spin cast route was developed to convert perpendicularly aligned nanorod assemblies of cadmium chalcogenides into their silver and copper analogues. The assemblies are rapidly cation exchanged without affecting ...
Molecular mechanisms of electrophoretic deposition (EPD) of poly(3-decylthiophene) (P3DT) molecules onto vertically aligned cadmium selenide arrays have been studied using large-scale, nonequilibrium molecular dynamics ...
