Herein we report the design of antimicrobial nanohybrids, f-MWCNTs-CdS and f-MWCNTs-Ag(2)S developed by covalent grafting of cationic hyperbranched dendritic polyamidoamine (PAMAM) onto multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) and successive deposition of CdS and Ag(2)S quantum dots (QDs). The CdS and Ag(2)S
Ag(2)S quantum dots (QDs) emitting in the second near-infrared region (NIR-II, 1.0-1.4 μm) are demonstrated as a promising fluorescent probe with both bright photoluminescence and high biocompatibility for the first time. Highly selective in vitro targeting and imaging of different
Among the many new engineered nanomaterials, nanosilver is one of the highest priority cases for environmental risk assessment. Recent analysis of field samples from water treatment facilities suggests that silver is converted to silver sulfide, whose very low solubility may
Herein, a novel structural transformation of Ag(2)S nanoparticles from hollow particles to solid spheres is reported. The features of these structures are identified through a set of characterizations based on which the formation mechanism is also investigated.
In this work, AgInS(2) hierarchical flowerlike nanoarchitectures, which are composed of ultrathin nanowires, were synthesized by thermolysis of a mixed solution of AgNO(3), InCl(3)·4H(2)O and n-dodecanethiol at elevated temperature. The average diameter and length of the nanowires composing the nanoarchitectures
