When particle dimensions are reduced to the order of several nanometers, their physical
and chemical properties deviate significantly from the bulk properties of such materials …

The aqueous dispersion of ZnO quantum dots (QDs) with strong blue emission (quantum
yield of 76%) was synthesized through a simple solution route. The water stability of such …

The wide bandgap and large exciton binding energy of ZnO may generate new applications
in bio-imaging after careful surface modifications. Formation of chemically pure ZnO …

In this study, the first of its kind, a solid-phase fluorescence sensing platform was developed
to quantify contaminants in water. ZnO quantum dots (QDs) were combined with molecularly …

ZnO–SiO 2 nanocomposite thin films were prepared using the target-attached RF sputtering
method without substrate heating. The PL measurements showed that the SiO 2 films …

In the present paper, a one-pot microwave-assisted approach was explored for self-
assembly fabrication of ultrafine tungsten oxide (WO3) quantum dots (QDs). The as-obtained …

Abstract Zn 2 SiO 4/ZnO composite have been prepared via simple solid-state chemical
reaction. The obtained sample was investigated by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) using Full …

ZnO doped SiO 2 thin films were prepared by the sol–gel method and annealed at different
temperatures from 200 to 1100° C. SiO 2 matrix is selected as support due to their high …

Zinc (Zn)-containing materials have osteogenic and antibacterial activities while bioactive
glass nanoparticles (BGN) show bone-bonding ability, as well as osteoconductive and …

This paper discusses with the synthesis of nanoparticles of ZnO and ZnO-SiO 2
nanocomposite by sol–gel method. Characterisation studies are taken for each sample and …
