High‐Sensitivity Solid‐State Pb(Core)/ZnO(Shell) Nanothermometers Fabricated by a Facile Galvanic Displacement Method

Abstract: Solid‐Pb‐filled ZnO nanotubes are synthesized and tested for use as nanothermometers. The expansion of the filling with increasing temperature (see figure) — or the corresponding changes in capacitance — can be measured and related to temperature. The advantages of this nanothermometer are extremely low fabrication costs, superior reliability, and lower demands on structural integrity of the outer shell compared to nanothermometers based on liquid fillings.

“…[27,28] The filled nanotubes and gaps between the filling materials can be seen from the distinct contrast between the outer shell and the fillings, as shown in Figure 3. [27] In situ TEM was used to investigate the thermal expansion properties of solid Pb inside ZnO x nanocables in real time. Figure 4 demonstrates the thermal expansion behavior in the temperature range 25-300°C.…”
