NiO nanoparticle-decorated SnO2 nanosheets for ethanol sensing with enhanced moisture resistance.

Project description:In a high relative humidity (RH) environment, it is challenging for ethanol sensors to maintain a high response and excellent selectivity. Herein, tetragonal rutile SnO2 nanosheets decorated with NiO nanoparticles were synthesized by a two-step hydrothermal process. The NiO-decorated SnO2 nanosheet-based sensors displayed a significantly improved sensitivity and excellent selectivity to ethanol gas. For example, the 3 mol% NiO-decorated SnO2 (SnO2-3Ni) sensor reached its highest response (153 at 100 ppm) at an operating temperature of 260 °C. Moreover, the SnO2-3Ni sensor had substantially improved moisture resistance. The excellent properties of the sensors can be attributed to the uniform dispersion of the NiO nanoparticles on the surface of the SnO2 nanosheets and the formation of NiO-SnO2 p-n heterojunctions. Considering the long-term stability and reproducibility of these sensors, our study suggests that the NiO nanoparticle-decorated SnO2 nanosheets are a promising material for highly efficient detection of ethanol.

Nitrogen-Doped Carbon Nanosheets Decorated With Mn2O3 Nanoparticles for Excellent Oxygen Reduction Reaction.

Project description:The purpose of this study is to develop an active, low cost, non-precious, stable, and high-performance catalyst for oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). In this regard, Mn2O3-decorated nitrogen-doped carbon nanosheets (Mn2O3/NC) are fabricated by a two-step strategy involving a hydrothermal method and a solid-state method. In the resultant structures, very fine Mn2O3 nanoparticles with an average size of about 5 nm are strongly attached to nitrogen-doped carbon nanosheets. The role of the Mn2O3 nanoparticles is to provide active sites for ORR, while the presence of the nitrogen-doped carbon not only enhances the conductivity of the overall structure but is also helpful for overall stability. The Mn2O3/NC shows good onset potential (0.80 V@-1 mA/cm2), methanol crossover effect, and stability (90%).

Room-temperature ammonia gas sensing via Au nanoparticle-decorated TiO2 nanosheets

Project description:A high-performance gas sensor operating at room temperature is always favourable since it simplifies the device fabrication and lowers the operating power by eliminating a heater. Herein, we fabricated the ammonia (NH3) gas sensor by using Au nanoparticle-decorated TiO2 nanosheets, which were synthesized via two distinct processes: (1) preparation of monolayer TiO2 nanosheets through flux growth and a subsequent chemical exfoliation and (2) decoration of Au nanoparticles on the TiO2 nanosheets via hydrothermal method. Based on the morphological, compositional, crystallographic, and surface characteristics of this low-dimensional nano-heterostructured material, its temperature- and concentration-dependent NH3 gas-sensing properties were investigated. A high response of ~ 2.8 was obtained at room temperature under 20 ppm NH3 gas concentration by decorating Au nanoparticles onto the surface of TiO2 nanosheets, which generated oxygen defects and induced spillover effect as well.

Solvent-Free Synthesis of Ultrafine Tungsten Carbide Nanoparticles-Decorated Carbon Nanosheets for Microwave Absorption.

Project description:Carbides/carbon composites are emerging as a new kind of binary dielectric systems with good microwave absorption performance. Herein, we obtain a series of tungsten carbide/carbon composites through a simple solvent-free strategy, where the solid mixture of dicyandiamide (DCA) and ammonium metatungstate (AM) is employed as the precursor. Ultrafine cubic WC1-x nanoparticles (3-4 nm) are in situ generated and uniformly dispersed on carbon nanosheets. This configuration overcomes some disadvantages of conventional carbides/carbon composites and is greatly helpful for electromagnetic dissipation. It is found that the weight ratio of DCA to AM can regulate chemical composition of these composites, while less impact on the average size of WC1-x nanoparticles. With the increase in carbon nanosheets, the relative complex permittivity and dielectric loss ability are constantly enhanced through conductive loss and polarization relaxation. The different dielectric properties endow these composites with distinguishable attenuation ability and impedance matching. When DCA/AM weight ratio is 6.0, the optimized composite can produce good microwave absorption performance, whose strongest reflection loss intensity reaches up to - 55.6 dB at 17.5 GHz and qualified absorption bandwidth covers 3.6-18.0 GHz by manipulating the thickness from 1.0 to 5.0 mm. Such a performance is superior to many conventional carbides/carbon composites.

Enhanced Response for Foodborne Pathogens Detection by Au Nanoparticles Decorated ZnO Nanosheets Gas Sensor.

Project description:Listeria monocytogenes is a hazardous foodborne pathogen that is able to cause acute meningitis, encephalitis, and sepsis to humans. The efficient detection of 3-hydroxy-2-butanone, which has been verified as a biomarker for the exhalation of Listeria monocytogenes, can feasibly evaluate whether the bacteria are contained in food. Herein, we developed an outstanding 3-hydroxy-2-butanone gas sensor based on the microelectromechanical systems using Au/ZnO NS as a sensing material. In this work, ZnO nanosheets were synthesized by a hydrothermal reaction, and Au nanoparticles (~5.5 nm) were prepared via an oleylamine reduction method. Then, an ultrasonic treatment was carried out to modified Au nanoparticles onto ZnO nanosheets. The XRD, BET, TEM, and XPS were used to characterize their morphology, microstructure, catalytic structure, specific surface area, and chemical composition. The response of the 1.0% Au/ZnO NS sensors vs. 25 ppm 3-hydroxy-2-butanone was up to 174.04 at 230 °C. Moreover, these sensors presented fast response/recovery time (6 s/7 s), great selectivity, and an outstanding limit of detection (lower than 0.5 ppm). This work is full of promise for developing a nondestructive, rapid and practical sensor, which would improve Listeria monocytogenes evaluation in foods.

Antibacterial and biofilm-inhibiting cotton fabrics decorated with copper nanoparticles grown on graphene nanosheets.

Project description:Infectious pathogens can be transmitted through textiles. Therefore, additional efforts are needed to develop functional fabrics containing antimicrobial substances to prevent the growth of antibiotic-resistant bacteria and their biofilms. Here, we developed a cotton fabric coated with reduced graphene oxide (rGO) and copper nanoparticles (Cu NPs), which possessed hydrophobic, antimicrobial, and anti-biofilm properties. Once the graphene oxide was dip-coated on a cellulose cotton fabric, Cu NPs were synthesized using a chemical reduction method to fabricate an rGO/Cu fabric, which was analyzed through FE-SEM, EDS, and ICP-MS. The results of our colony-forming unit assays indicated that the rGO/Cu fabric possessed high antibacterial and anti-biofilm properties against Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus epidermidis, Corynebacterium xerosis, and Micrococcus luteus. Particularly, the fabric could inhibit the growth of E. coli, C. xerosis, and M. luteus with a 99% efficiency. Furthermore, our findings confirmed that the same concentrations of rGO/Cu had no cytotoxic effects against CCD-986Sk and Human Dermal Fibroblast (HDF), human skin cells, and NIH/3T3, a mouse skin cell. The developed rGO/Cu fabric thus exhibited promising applicability as a cotton material that can maintain hygienic conditions by preventing the propagation of various bacteria and sufficiently suppressing biofilm formation while also being harmless to the human body.

Ultrathin Films of MXene Nanosheets Decorated by Ionic Branched Nanoparticles with Enhanced Energy Storage Stability.

Project description:Two-dimensional (2D) materials such as MXenes have shown great potential for energy storage applications due to their high surface area and high conductivity. However, their practical implementation is limited by their tendency to restack, similar to other 2D materials, leading to a decreased long-term performance. Here, we present a novel approach to addressing this issue by combining MXene (Ti3C2Tx) nanosheets with branched ionic nanoparticles from polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxanes (POSS) using an amphiphilicity-driven assembly for the formation of composite monolayers of nanoparticle-decorated MXene nanosheets at the air-water interface. The amphiphilic hybrid MXene/POSS monolayers allow for the fabrication of organized multilayered films with ionic nanoparticles supporting the nanoscale gap between MXene nanosheets. For these composite multilayers, we observed a 400% enhancement in specific capacitance compared to pure drop-cast MXene films. Furthermore, dramatically enhanced electrochemical cycling stability for ultrathin-film electrodes (<400 nm in thickness) with a 91% capacitance retention over 10,000 cycles has been achieved. Our results suggest that this insertion of 0D ionic nanoparticles with complementary interactions in between 2D MXene nanosheets could be extended to other hybrid 0D-2D nanomaterials, providing a promising pathway for the development of hybrid electrode architectures with enhanced ionic transport for long-term energy cycling and storage, capacitive deionization, and ionic filtration.

Pd-Decorated SnO2 Nanofilm Integrated on Silicon Nanowires for Enhanced Hydrogen Sensing.

Project description:The development of reliable, highly sensitive hydrogen sensors is crucial for the safe implementation of hydrogen-based energy systems. This paper proposes a novel way to enhance the performance of hydrogen sensors through integrating Pd-SnO2 nanofilms on the substrate with silicon nanowires (SiNWs). The samples were fabricated via a simple and cost-effective process, mainly consisting of metal-assisted chemical etching (MaCE) and electron beam evaporation. Structural and morphological characterizations were conducted using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The experimental results showed that, compared to those without SiNW structure or decorative Pd nanoparticles, the Pd-decorated SnO2 nanofilm integrated on the SiNW substrates exhibited significantly improved hydrogen sensing performance, achieving a response time of 9 s at 300 °C to 1.5% H2 and a detection limit of 1 ppm. The enhanced performance can be primarily attributed to the large surface area provided by SiNWs, the efficient hydrogen spillover effect facilitated by Pd nanoparticles, and the abundant oxygen vacancies present on the surface of the SnO2 nanofilm, as well as the Schottky barrier formed at the heterojunction interface between Pd and SnO2. This study demonstrates a promising approach for developing high-performance H2 sensors characterized by ultrafast response times and ultralow detection limits.

Highly sensitive fluorogenic sensing of L-Cysteine in live cells using gelatin-stabilized gold nanoparticles decorated graphene nanosheets.

Project description:A highly sensitive and selective fluorogenic sensing of L-Cysteine (L-Cys) was implemented based on gelatin stabilized gold nanoparticles decorated reduced graphene oxide (rGO/Au) nanohybrid. The rGO/Au nanohybrid was prepared by the one-pot hydrothermal method and well characterized by different physiochemical techniques. The nanohybrid exhibits a weak fluorescence of rGO due to the energy transfer from the rGO to Au NPs. The rGO/Au nanohybrid shows enhanced fluorescence activity due to the restoration of quenched fluorescence of rGO/Au nanohybrid in presence of L-Cys. The rGO/Au nanohybrid exhibits much lower detection limit of 0.51 nM for L-Cys with higher selectivity. The fluorescence sensing mechanism arose from the fluorescence recovery due to the stronger interaction between Au NPs and L-Cys, and consequently, the energy transfer was prevented between rGO and Au NPs. The practicability of rGO/Au sensor was implemented by invitro bioimaging measurements in Colo-205 (colorectal adenocarcinoma) and MKN-45 (gastric carcinoma) cancer live cells with excellent biocompatibility.

A facile synthesis of Au-nanoparticles decorated PbI2 single crystalline nanosheets for optoelectronic device applications.

Project description:This research communication presents a rapid and facile microwave-assisted synthesis of single crystalline nanosheets (SCNSs) of hexagonal lead iodide (PbI2) decorated with Au nanoparticles, a potential optoelectronics material. Homogeneous low dimensional AuNP decoration in PbI2 resulted in a new absorption band at ~604 nm and a shift in band gap from 3.23 to 3.00 eV. The significant enhancement of photoluminescent (PL) intensity observed in the AuNP-PbI2 SCNSs is attributed to the coupling of the localized surface plasmon resonanzce of AuNP leading to improved excitation and emission rates of PbI2-SCNSs in the region of the localized electromagnetic field. The Au-PbI2 SCNSs display a compelling increment in photoconductivity, and its fabricated photodetector showed a stable and switchable photo-response. Due to ease of synthesis and enhanced photoconductivity along with appealing PL features, Au-PbI2 SCNS has the potential to be used as a material of choice when fabricating an optoelectronic devices of high performance.
