The synthesis of atomically thin transition-metal oxide nanosheets as a conceptually new
class of materials is significant for the development of next-generation electronic and …

This book presents wet chemical sol-gel and hydrothermal methods for 1D oxide
nanostructure preparation. These methods represent an attractive route to multifunctional …

Metal oxide nanoparticles are one of the most important categories of nanomaterials.
Increasing use of metal oxide nanoparticles necessitates an improved understanding of their …

We carried out first-principle calculations with density functional theory to discuss adsorption
properties, gas-sensing performance and mechanism of CO on pure and oxygen-defective α …

Density functional theory was employed to study the strain-induced modification of electronic
properties of advanced monolayer α-Fe 2 O 3 for the first time. Theoretical results indicated …

Titanate nanotubes and ZnO nanorods are the most studied 1D oxide nanostructures, due to
their specific structure, morphology, and special properties. Several physical and chemical …
