Nanotechnologies and different types of nanomaterials belong in present day to intensively studied materials due to their unique properties and diverse potential applications in, e.g., electronics, medicine, or display technologies. Together with the investigation of their desired beneficial properties, a...
This review covers the major reactions involved in the solution synthesis of nanomaterials. It was designed to classify the traditional strategies such as
In solar cells, paints, and coatings • In bioremediation, for the removal of various organics (phenol, p-nitrophenol, and salicylic acid) 2. ZnO • In skin care products • In bottle coatings 3. CeO2 • As combustion catalyst in diesel fuels to improve emission quality. In gas sen...
This study also discusses the mechanism of heterogeneous photocatalysis in the presence of TiO2. Solar energy is uniquely poised to solve major energy and environmental challenges that are being faced by humankind. As such, it is important to develop a suitable environmentally-friendly technology that...

uorescent labels, tunable LEDs, and solar cells. 123 968 J Nanopart Res (2008) 10:965–980 High quality CdSe nanocrystals were synthesized by rapid injection of organometallic precursors into a hot coordinating solvent. However, the quality and size control in the batch process depends strongly ...
One major issue confronting PTT is the overexpression of HSP, which reduces the treatment efficacy due to the increased thermal resistance of cancer cells [66]. In normal tissue, heat stress to the skin can be induced by exposure to solar rays, which increases skin temperature and induces cells...
In some cases, MOFs can expand and contract based on their environment and the material loaded within the pores [151,152,153]. MOFs are used in various applications, such as solar panels, carbon capture, drug delivery, and cancer detection [154]. A novel application of MOFs is to build ...
Besides, this hydrogel could also promote the migration and axon growth of PC12 neuronal cells at the cellular level and promote the regeneration of the neurovasculature and COL deposition in diabetic wound [122]. Zhang, Tao and Zhu et al. developed an E-skin patch with PF127 serving as ...
Photosynthetic organisms present in plants, for instance, appear as the most sophisticated solar energy storage systems in nature due to their unique ability to harvest solar radiation and transform it into chemical energy. The light is absorbed by antenna systems composed of a few hundred ...
