From layered double hydroxide to spinel nanostructures: Facile synthesis and characterization of nanoplatelets and nanorods
Article Abstract:
Mg-Al spinel nanorods and nanoplatelets transformed from Mg-Al layered double hydroxide are compounded through a combined hydrothermal method and calcination route. The influence of the reaction time and temperature on the morphologies of the products is explored and these spinel nanomaterials have displayed relatively higher values of the BET surface area due to their nanostructures.

Optical properties of ZnO nanocrystals doped with Cd, Mg, Mn, and Fe ions
Article Abstract:
A study obtained ZnO nanocrystals doped with Cd, Mg, Mn, and Fe ions by thermolysis of a family of metal cupferrates. The band gap of the nanocrystal could be tuned in the range of 2.9-3.8 eV by the use of the dopants.
