Room‐Temperature Organometallic Synthesis of Soluble and Crystalline ZnO Nanoparticles of Controlled Size and Shape
Year: 2003
Type: article
Abstract: Nanomaterials made easy! The facile oxidation of [Zn(c-C6H11)2] at room temperature in an organic solvent containing long-chain amine ligands leads to the formation of size- and shape-controlled crystalline ZnO nanoparticles (see picture). These particles, in the form of nanodisks and nanorods of low size dispersity in the 3–10 nm size range, are fully soluble in organic solvents (e.g., THF) and photoluminescent.
