Metal nanoparticles are a widely used material that can be applied in various fields, such as medicine, electronics, energy, and the environment. They have extremely small size and high surface area, which can enhance the performance of many materials. However, the surface of metal nanoparticles is often very active and easily reacts with the surrounding environment, so a passivation layer is need...

Quantum dots (QDs) refer to semiconductor nanoparticles with a size smaller than the Bohr radius of the exciton and exhibiting quantum confinement effects. Due to the quantum confinement effect, the fluorescence emission of quantum dots is related to their diameter and chemical composition. By compounding with semiconductor surfaces, their optical and photochemical properties can be enhanced. Trad...

The specific surface area of a powder is an important physical property, which refers to the total surface area (in square meters) of an oxide powder per unit mass (in grams). The size of the specific surface area is related to factors such as particle size, shape, and porosity of the powder. Generally speaking, the smaller the particles and the higher the porosity, the larger the specific surface...
