“…Firstly, it is believed that microwave heating can reduce, or even eliminate, the overall thermal gradients during a reaction [29]. Obviously, a low thermal gradient is necessary to produce high-quality materials [50,51]. Thus the use of microwave heating provides us with thermalgradient-free and uniform reaction conditions for the nucleation and growth of the Bi@Bi 2 O 3 microspheres.…”

Composite Bi@Bi 2 O 3 microspheres have been synthesized via a microwave-assisted solvothermal route. The Bi@Bi 2 O 3 microspheres had a narrow size distribution in the range 1.2-2.8 mm. Glucose was selected as the reductant, BiCl 3 as the bismuth source, and ethylene glycol (EG) as the solvent in the synthesis system. The as-synthesized sample was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), particle diameter distribution, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis) spectroscopy, and photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy. The photocatalytic activities of the Bi@Bi 2 O 3 microspheres were evaluated by the photodegradation of rhodamine B (RhB) and methyl orange (MO) dyes under UV light irradiation. The degradation reached ~96.6% for RhB and 100% for MO after 4 h reaction in the presence of the as-synthesized Bi@Bi 2 O 3 microspheres.

“…Photo-induced synthesis of assembled NPs silvered mirror. The sample preparation protocol used in this study is similar with that used in our previous works [20,21]. In a typical synthesis, about 10 mg of 2-hydroxy-2-methylpropiophenone (ca 0.5 % by weight) and about 9 100 mg of silver nitrate (ca 5 % by weight) were added to 2 mL of solvent and maintained for 60 minutes at room temperature under magnetic stirring to ensure complete dissolution.…”

Interesting mirror-like, highly reflective, and conductive silver films have been successfully generated directly on a glass slide using a simple and fast photoinduced approach. A water-based photosensitive formulation containing the silver precursor and a photogenerator of free radicals was used. It was applied like paint and exposed to UV light for a few seconds, in the absence of any additional reducing agents and without further treatment of any kind. This approach allowed ultrathin films of silver nanoparticles to be generated in situ (AgNPs) on the back side of the glass substrate. The particles are homogeneously autoassembled onto the glass surface and the glass/silver diopter exhibits a high reflective character. With such an experimental arrangement, reflective surfaces are obtained: in contact with the glass slide, which is called the second surface mirror, and on the air side, which is called the first surface mirror. Quite interestingly, these reflective and conductive thin films exhibit strong natural adhesion on the glass substrate without the need for enhancing treatments (sensitization or activation) to improve the adhesion of the silver layer to the glass, as usual with silver glass mirrors. The influence of several chemical and photonic parameters has been examined in order to optimize the final optical and electrical properties of these silver films.
