Solvothermal synthesis of CdO hollow nanostructures from CdO2nanoparticles

Simple and rapid synthesis of Cadmium Oxide (CdO) nanospheres by a microwave-assisted combustion method

“…The collective behavior of van der Waals forces and electrostatic interactions would have favored the self assembling of the CdO hollow spheres as observed from the TEM studies [32,33]. The present morphology is almost similar to the one reported by Zhang et al [34]. Fig.…”

Catalyst-free growth and crystal structures of CdO nanowires and nanotubes

“…So far, a number of methods have been used to synthesize the various nanostructures, including the template hydrothermal process [6], thermal evaporation method [4,7], chemical bath deposition method [8], solvothermal condition [9], and plasmaassisted approach [10][11][12][13][14]. Among these methods, the thermal evaporation process is a kind of effective methods in realizing the diversiform CdO nanostructures [4,7,15,16].…”

Structural, morphological and optical behaviour of PVP capped binary (ZnO)0.4 (CdO)0.6 nanoparticles synthesised by a facile thermal route

“…In a similar way to the ZnO semiconductors, many different forms of CdO have been created at the nanoscale, such as cubes [64], thin films of nanoclusters [65], wires [66,67], nanoclusters [68], nanoparticles [69][70][71], crystals [72,73], nanorodes [74] and several more exotic structures such as CdO Rhombus-like nanostructure [75] and heterojunction nanofibres [76], among others [77]. The range of processing techniques applicable to CdO semiconductors mirrors those of ZnO, for example sonochemical and solvothermal processes [78], thermal decomposition [79], soft chemical methods [80], and evaporation techniques [81]. Zn x Cd 1 À x O composite material has been produced using several methods, with the assistance of both spontaneous and piezoelectric polarisations of the internal electric field [82,83].…”
