“…Based on uniquely electronic, mechanical and chemical properties of carbon nanotubes with marked shape-specific and quantum size effects [1][2][3], nanotubular materials are expected to exhibit both unusual characteristics and potential applications [4]. During the last decade, various nanotubes have been prepared, inclusive of Bi [5], TiO 2 [6], SiO 2 [7], Al 2 O 3 [8], MX 2 (M¨Mo, W, Nb, Ta; X¨S, Se) [9,10], VO x [11,12], NiCl 2 [13], H 2 Ti 3 O 7 [14], AlN [15], rare earth (Er, Tm, Yb, Lu) oxides [16] and so on. Most recently, considerable efforts have been directed towards the preparation of nano-structured alumina, due to their novel properties, such as high elastic modulus, thermal and chemical stability, and optical characteristics [14].…”

“…This indicates that uniformly mesostructured alumina has been obtained under our experimental conditions, in agreement with the observation from TEM image. It is rather profound that the diffraction peaks at the low angle (2h < 6-) have not been observed for alumina nanotubes to date [8,17 -21], but a similar phenomenon was reported in the case of erbium oxide nanotubes [16]. As displayed in curve B of Fig.…”

The field of theranostics has sprung up to achieve personalized medicine. The theranostics fuses diagnostic and therapeutic functions, empowering early diagnosis, targeted drug delivery, and real-time monitoring of treatment effect into one step. One particularly attractive class of nanomaterials for theranostic application is lanthanide-doped hollow nanomaterials (LDHNs). Because of the existence of lanthanide ions, LDHNs show outstanding fluorescent and paramagnetic properties, enabling them to be used as multimodal bioimaging agents. Synchronously, the huge interior cavities of LDHNs are able to be applied as efficacious tools for storage and delivery of therapeutic agents. The LDHNs can be divided into two types based on difference of component: single-phase lanthanide-doped hollow nanomaterials and lanthanide-doped hollow nanocomposites. We describe the synthesis of first kind of nanomaterials by use of hard template, soft template, template-free, and self-sacrificing template method. For lanthanide-doped hollow nanocomposites, we divide the preparation strategies into three kinds (one-step, two-step, and multistep method) according to the synthetic procedures. Furthermore, we also illustrate the potential bioapplications of these LDHNs, including biodetection, imaging (fluorescent imaging and magnetic resonance imaging), drug/gene delivery, and other therapeutic applications.

“…Precise control of the nanoscale surface chemistry and physics could aid size and shape control in the synthesis of nanomaterials [47][48][49][50][51][52][53][54][55][56][57][58][59]. Different binding between surfactant molecules and metal atoms on the surface of NPs could facilitate the production of monodispersed NPs.…”

This article briefly reviews the development of surface science and its close relevance to nanoscience and heterogeneous catalysis. The focus of this article is to highlight the importance of nanoscale surface science for understanding heterogeneous catalysis performing at solid-gas and solid-liquid interfaces. Surface science has built a foundation for the understanding of catalysis based on the studies of well-defined single-crystal catalysts in the past several decades. Studies of catalysis on well-defined nanoparticles (NPs) significantly promoted the understanding of catalytic mechanisms to an unprecedented level in the last decade. To understand reactions performed on catalytic active sites at nano or atomic scales and thus reach the goal of catalysis by design, studies of the surface of nanocatalysts are crucial. The challenges in such studies are discussed.
