“…3(b,c) are confirmed to be both good symmetrical peaks after deconvolution analyzing, centered at 103.88 eV and 533.04 eV, respectively. These two peak positions are well fitted with the literature binding energy values of Si 2p and O 1s for SiO 2 32 , 33 . No any other obvious Si XPS peaks are observed here.…”

Novel silica nanowires and interconnected nanorings were firstly synthesized on a graphite paper by typical thermal catalytic chemical vapor deposition method, using silicon and carbon black powders as raw materials. The field emission scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and transmission electron microscopy were used to investigate the composition and structure characterization, which indicates that the silica nanowires and interconnected nanorings were amorphous. The growth of the as-prepared silica nanowires and interconnected nanorings was related to the vapor-liquid-solid mechanism, but the nanowire-ring structure may be due to the polycentric nucleation and periodic stable growth with gradual direction changes. The room temperature photoluminescence emission spectrum showed that the silica nanostructures emitted strong blue light at 460 nm, resulting from the combination of neutral oxygen vacancy (≡Si-Si≡) and selftrapped excitons. The as-synthesized novel silica nanowires and interconnected nanorings could be a potential candidate for applications in future light-emitting diodes and optoelectronic nanodevices.

Silica nanosheets (SiO NS) are considered to be a promising material in clinical practice for diagnosis and therapy applications. However, an appropriate surface functionalization is essential to guarantee high biocompatibility and molecule loading ability. Although SiO NS are chemically stable, its effects on immune systems are still being explored. In this work, we successfully synthesized a novel 2D multilayer SiO NS and SiO NS coated with carbon (C/SiO NS), and evaluated their impact on human Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells (PBMCs) and some immune cell subpopulations. We demonstrated that the immune response is strongly dependent on the surface functionalities of the SiO NS. Ex vivo experiments showed an increase in biocompatibility of C/SiO NS compared to SiO NS, resulting in a lowering of hemoglobin release together with a reduction in cellular toxicity and cellular activation. However, none of them are directly involved in the activation of the acute inflammation process with a consequent release of pro-inflammatory cytokines. The obtained results provide an important direction towards the biomedical applications of silica nanosheets, rendering them an attractive material for the development of future immunological therapies.
