Visible Photoluminescence Emission from Chemically Synthesized MWCNT/TiO2 Hybrid Nanostructure

Paul R., Kumbhakar P., Mitra A.K., National Institute of Technology, Durgapur, IN

We report here a simple chemical precipitation process to synthesize a heterostructure of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) and TiO2 (titania) nanoparticles of average size 3.5 nm. The hybrid structure has been characterized by high resolution [...]

Violet-Blue Emission From TiO2/SWCNT Hybrid Structure Synthesized by a Simple Chemical Route

Paul R., Kumbhakar P., Mitra A.K., NIT Durgapur India, IN

Using a lucid wet chemical process under room temperature, titania nanocrystallites of average size 5 nm have been adhered to the surfaces of SWCNT bundles. The hybrid structure has been characterized by high resolution transmission [...]
