“In-Situ” Monitoring of CdSe/ZnS Quantum Dot Growth During Microwave Synthesis

Zane A., McCracken C., Knight D., Waldman W.J., Dutta P., The Ohio State University, US

The microwave synthesis of CdSe/ZnS quantum dots was observed in real-time using fluorescence spectroscopy for the first time. This technique was used as an efficient way to optimize the temperature and time of the synthesis, [...]

In-situ synthesis of Cu nanoparticles on MWCNTS using Microwave irradiation

Rangari V.K., Dey S., Jeelani S., Tuskegee University, US

Microwave irradiation technique is successfully used to synthesize the copper coated MWCNTS in a one-pot reaction with and without surfactant. Since the graphite carbon absorbs the (in 2min 1100oC) maximum microwave radiation had led to [...]
