Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nanomaterials via Single-Source Precursors: Synthesis, Processing and Applications presents recent results and overviews of synthesis, processing, characterization and applications of advanced materials for energy, electronics, biomedicine, sensors and aerospace. A variety of processing methods (vapor, liquid and solid-state) are covered, along with materials, including metals, oxides, semiconductor, sulfides, selenides, nitrides, and carbon-based materials. Production of quantum dots, nanoparticles, thin films and composites are described by a collection of international experts. Given the ability to customize the phase, morphology, and properties of target materials, this "rational approach to synthesis and processing is a disruptive technology for electronic, energy, structural and biomedical (nano)materials and devices. The use of single-source chemical precursors for materials processing technology allows for intimate elemental mixing and hence production of complex materials at temperatures well below traditional physical methods and those involving direct combination of elements. The use of lower temperatures enables thin-film deposition on lightweight polymer substrates and reduces damage to complex devices structures such as used in power, electronics and sensors. - Discusses new approaches to synthesis or single-source precursors (SSPs) and the concept of rational design of materials - Includes materials processing of SSPs in the design of new materials and novel devices - Provides comprehensive coverage of the subject (materials science and chemistry) as related to SSPs and the range of potential applications

This book was released on 2022-05-06 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Doctoral Thesis / Dissertation from the year 2022 in the subject Chemistry - Materials Chemistry, , course: CHEMISTRY, language: English, abstract: This thesis reports the symthesis of five metal complexes, namely bis(piperidinylldithiocarbamato)nickel(II) (1), bis(tetrahydroquinolinyldithiocarbamato)nickel(II) (2), bis(N’-ethyl-N-piperazinyldithiocarbamato)nickel(II) (3), tris(morpholinodithiocarbamato)cobalt(III) (4) and tris(N’-ethyl-N-piperazinyldithiocarbamato)cobalt(III) (5). These heterocyclic dithiocarbamate complexes have been characterised using common techniques such as Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy, elemental analysis and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. Nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy measurements were not conducted for complexes, due to their paramagnetic behaviour which adversely interferes with the technique. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction was used instead, which aided in the accurate elucidation of novel chemical structures of the complexes. Three complexes were characterised using the technique; the chemical structures of the rest are already known in literature. Generally, dithiocarbamate complexes have been identified as compounds of technological importance, particularly as single-source molecular precursors for the fabrication of nanomaterials for widespread applications. However, interest has mainly been on alkyl derivatives. Thus, this thesis focuses on the use of heterocyclic dithiocarbamates complexes as single-source molecular precursors for the fabrication of the corresponding metal sulfide thin films and nanoparticles through thermal decomposition routes. Thermal decomposition of the complexes (1)-(5) produced Ni-S, Co-S and Ni-Co-S nanoparticles and thin films which exhibited interesting morphological and optoelectronic properties. The above-mentioned systems were particularly chosen for their increased interest in magnetism, as well as energy generation and storage applications. In this thesis, the nature of the complexes and other reaction parameters were demonstrated to have an influence on the particle size, morphology, and phase purity of the nanoparticles and thin films produced. These properties have a profound impact on the efficiency of the nanoparticles and thin films, towards specific applications.

This book was released on 2018-03-07 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scientific Study from the year 2018 in the subject Chemistry - Anorganic Chemistry, grade: 10, , language: English, abstract: Nanoscience is the study of phenomena exhibited by materials at atomic, molecular and macromolecular levels, of dimensions ranging from a few nanometres to less than a hundred nanometres. In chemistry, this size range has been associated with colloids, micelles, polymer molecules and similar structures. In physical and electrical engineering, nanoscience is often associated with quantum behaviour, and electron behaviour in nanoscale structures. The area of research in the field of nanotechnology is as diverse as physics, chemistry, material science, microbiology, biochemistry and also molecular biology. The interface of nanotechnology in combination with biotechnology and biomedical engineering has emerged with the use of nanoscale structures in diagnosis, gene sequencing, and drug delivery. Nanoparticles have attracted great interest in recent years because of their unique chemical and physical properties, which are different from those of either the bulk materials or single atoms. Nanostructure materials have potential applications in ceramics, optoelectronics and catalysis. Research on the synthesis of nanomaterials using metal complexes as precursors have been less reported. Application of metal complexes as precursors may be helpful to control the physical properties of metal nanoparticles. In the last few years, researchers have characterized the tunable properties by altering the nanostructure size, shape, and chemical composition and have developed reproducible strategies to make nanostructures of desired properties. It has been already proved that by controlling the size of the particle and manipulating surface structures of the semiconductor materials, the electronic, magnetic, mechanical, and chemical properties can be modified to suit a wide range of device application in many fields. The present book deals with the synthesis of Schiff base complexes of Cd(II), Zn(II) and Hg(II) with different sulphur containing ligand and preparation of metal sulphide nanoparticle by the thermal decomposition of complex precursor. During this academic journey four new sulphur containing ligands and their thirty complexes were synthesized. These ligands and complexes were characterized by spectroscopic methods like UV-Vis, FT-IR, 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, 2D-NMR, FAB-MS / ESI-Ms spectra.
