Metal nanoparticles are a widely used material that can be applied in various fields, such as medicine, electronics, energy, and the environment. They have extremely small size and high surface area, which can enhance the performance of many materials. However, the surface of metal nanoparticles is often very active and easily reacts with the surrounding environment, so a passivation layer is need...

Class I and Class II materials are two fundamental concepts in the field of materials science, which are used to describe the crystal structure types of materials and are often applied in the research of materials such as semiconductors and metals. So, how do we distinguish between Class I materials and Class II materials? A simple method is to distinguish based on the density of the material. Com...

Quantum dots (QDs) refer to semiconductor nanoparticles with a size smaller than the Bohr radius of the exciton and exhibiting quantum confinement effects. Due to the quantum confinement effect, the fluorescence emission of quantum dots is related to their diameter and chemical composition. By compounding with semiconductor surfaces, their optical and photochemical properties can be enhanced. Trad...

(1) Particle size characterization Particles disperse in liquid to form a suspension system. The smaller the particle size and the more stable it becomes over time, the better its dispersion and less likely it is to agglomerate. Particle size characterization is commonly used to characterize the particle dispersion before and after surface modification. The better the dispersion of particles, the ...

What are nanoparticles? Nanoparticles (NPs) are typically defined as granular materials with at least one dimension at the nanoscale (1-100 nm) in three-dimensional space. From the dimensions of structure and morphology, nanoparticles can be classified into zero dimensional nanomaterials (0D nanomaterials), corresponding to one-dimensional (1D) and two-dimensional (2D) nanomaterials. 0D nanopartic...

Why do nanoparticles aggregate? 1.Surface free energy driven mechanism Nanoparticles have a larger specific surface area and unsaturated surface atoms, leading to an increase in surface free energy. Multi particle contact can reduce the total surface area, release interfacial energy, and thus lower the system's free energy. This trend of energy minimization is the intrinsic thermodynamic driving f...

1.Characterization of particle size and distribution Dynamic Light Scattering (DLS): DLS is one of the most commonly used techniques for measuring the particle size and distribution of nanoparticles in suspensions. It calculates the hydrodynamic diameter of particles by measuring the time-dependent light scattering intensity fluctuations caused by Brownian motion of particles. DLS can also provide...
