Over the past decades, water pollution has been suggested as the leading factor to
infectious diseases. There has been a worldwide concern to use photocatalysts to degrade …

Here, we demonstrate the successful synthesis of (1T/2H) MoS2/α-MoO3 heterostructured
nanoflowers at a low temperature of 200° C by a one-step hydrothermal method. By tuning …

The controllable synthesis of Au–Ag alloy nanoparticles (NPs) without any hazardous or
expensive chemical agent has been a challenge. This paper reports on the Chinese …

TiO 2 nanotube (NT) arrays were modified with thin films of polydopamine (PDA) and Ag
nanoparticles (NP) and were used as electron storage centers on a photoelectrode surface …

Au–Ag alloy nanoparticles (NPs) less than 10 nm in size were synthesized using sucrose as
a reductant and surfactant. Au–Ag alloy NPs with a homogeneous composition were …

Gold–tellurium nanostructures (Au–Te NSs), silver–tellurium nanostructures (Ag–Te NSs),
and gold/silver–tellurium nanostructures (Au/Ag–Te NSs) have been prepared through …

Four silver chalcogen compounds, Ag 2 O, Ag 2 S, Ag 2 Se and Ag 2 Te, can be utilized as
visible-light-driven photocatalysts. In this research, the electronic structures of these …

Thermoelectric devices are effective in harvesting energy from waste heat with a
temperature difference relative to the environment, which can be applied in vehicles …

Aqueous Au@ Ag3AuX2 (X= Se, Te) core/shell nanocrystals (NCs) have been synthesized
unprecedentedly by a controllable in situ conversion. The Au@ Ag3AuTe2 NCs show a …

Pathogenic bacteria that give rise to diseases every year remain a major health concern. In
recent years, tellurium-based nanomaterials have been approved as new and efficient …
