The γ-Fe2O3/Al2O3core-shell nanocomposites (MCSs) were successfully synthesized by using heterogeneous nucleation method. The results show that a core-shell structures exit in γ-Fe2O3/Al2O3MCSs and that the size of γ-Fe2O3/Al2O3MCSs is in nanoscale. The saturated magnetization and coercivity of γ-Fe2O3/Al2O3MCSs decrease compared with that of γ-Fe2O3nanoparticles. However, the infrared absorbing ability of γ-Fe2O3/Al2O3MCSs is obvious enhanced and it is expected to become a new series of absorbing materials applied in military field.

Hollow glass microsphere (HGM)/TiO2 core-shell structural composites have promising applications in the field of energy efficient solar-reflective paints. In this work, after pretreated with saturated Ca(OH)2 solutions, litchis-like TiO2 shells have been successfully synthesized on HGMs via a controllably heterogeneous precipitation method with Titanium (IV) sulfate (Ti(SO[Formula: see text] and urea as reaction precursors. It is emphasized that the use of urea as the precipitating agent is essential for the heterogeneous nucleation and growth of Ti(OH)4 on HGMs, while the Ca(OH)2 pretreatment provides the heterogeneous nucleation sites on HGMs which promotes the nucleation and growth of Ti(OH)4, and gives rise to large secondary Ti(OH)4 particles, leading to the formation of litchis-like TiO2 shells. The resulted core-shell structural HGM/TiO2 microspheres exhibited highest solar reflectance of [Formula: see text]83%.

Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) is a powerful tool in charge transfer (CT) process research. By analyzing the relative intensity of the characteristic bands in the bridging molecules, one can obtain detailed information about the CT between two materials. Herein, we synthesized a series of Au nanorods (NRs) with different length-to-diameter ratios (L/Ds) and used these Au NRs to prepare a series of core–shell structures with the same Cu2O thicknesses to form Au NR–4-mercaptobenzoic acid (MBA)@Cu2O core–shell structures. Surface plasmon resonance (SPR) absorption bands were adjusted by tuning the L/Ds of Au NR cores in these assemblies. SERS spectra of the core-shell structure were obtained under 633 and 785 nm laser excitations, and on the basis of the differences in the relative band strengths of these SERS spectra detected with the as-synthesized assemblies, we calculated the CT degree of the core–shell structure. We explored whether the Cu2O conduction band and valence band position and the SPR absorption band position together affect the CT process in the core–shell structure. In this work, we found that the specific surface area of the Au NRs could influence the CT process in Au NR–MBA@Cu2O core–shell structures, which has rarely been discussed before.
