Structural and optical characterization of crystals obtained via solid state reactions in the In2O3–TiO2–Al2O3 pseudoternary system
In this article, a synthesis of the compound In2O3–TiO2–Al2O3 (molar relation 3:4:1 and 5:8:1) at 1350 °C by solid-state reactions is described. The compounds were obtained after heat treatment at 1350 °C for two...

AuCu, AgCu and AuAg Bimetallic Nanoparticles: Synthesis, Characterization and Water Remediation
Self-assembling systems of amphiphilic molecules display structures similar to those of biomineralization natural systems. This allows to somehow mimic nature to synthesize nanomaterials with low polidispersit...

Open AccessSelf-alignment of silver nanoparticles in highly ordered 2D arrays
We have synthesized silver nanoparticles in the non-polar phase of non-aqueous microemulsions. The nanocrystals have been grown by reducing silver ions in the microemulsion cylindrical micelles formed by the r...

Open AccessSynthesis of silver nanoparticles using reducing agents obtained from natural sources (Rumex hymenosepalus extracts)
We have synthesized silver nanoparticles from silver nitrate solutions using extracts of Rumex hymenosepalus, a plant widely found in a large region in North America, as reducing agent. This plant is known to be ...
