In this contribution experimental evidence of plasmonic edge modes and acoustic breathing modes in gold nanostars (AuNSs) is reported. AuNSs are synthesized by a surfactant-free, one-step wet-chemistry method.

We have grown nanostructured films of Zn/Al Layered Double Hydroxide (LDH) on different substrates by combining the deposition of an aluminum micropatterned thin layer with a successive one-step room-temperature wet-chemistry process. The resulting LDH film is made of lamellar-like nanoplatelets mainly oriented perpendicular to the substrate. Since the aluminum layer acts as both reactant and seed for the synthesis of the LDH, the growth can be easily confined with submicrometric-level resolution (about ±0.5 μm) by prepatterning the aluminum layer with conventional photolithographic techniques. Moreover, we demonstrate real-time monitoring of the LDH growth process by simply measuring the resistance of the residual aluminum film. If the aluminum layer is thinner than 250 nm, the morphology of LDH nanoplatelets is less regular and their final thickness linearly depends on the initial amount of aluminum. This peculiarity allows accurately controlling the LDH nanoplatelet thickness (with uncertainty of about ±10%) by varying the thickness of the predeposited aluminum film. Since the proposed growth procedure is fully compatible with MEMS/CMOS technology, our results may be useful for the fabrication of micro-/nanodevices.

In the present work, ZnO nanostructures were synthesized via wet chemistry method. The seeding solution was prepared from zinc nitrate tetrahydrate and hexamethylenetetramine. Prior to the heating process, the seeding solution was immersed in cold bath (0°C). XRD analysis had shown sharp peaks in diffractogram, indicating the high crystallinity of ZnO nanostructures. The crystallite size was determined using Scherrer equation and Williamson-Hall method. Other relevant parameters including stress, strain, and energy density were calculated using Williamson-Hall assuming UDM, UDSM, and UDEDM. The results had revealed that crystallite size calculated with Williamson-Hall method is more accurate than Scherrer equation.

The effect of sample size on the measured thermoelectric figure of merit (Zm) determined by the Peltier–Seebeck or Harman method has been studied by progressively halving the area (As) and length (ls) of bismuth telluride alloy samples. Measurements were carried out with As values from 1 to 0.01 cm2, la values from 2 to 0.5 cm, and three different gauges of current leads (cross-sectional area Aw). The relative decrease of Zm was found to vary approximately as sech [Formula: see text] with Aw and ls constant, as In Aw with As and ls constant, and as T4/s2 with Aw and As constant, where T is the absolute temperature. The variation with As and Aw appears to be due to conduction along the sample leads, while the variation with ls is well accounted for by radiation to and from the sample. With 40 A.W.G. wires, the error in the measured figure of merit is estimated to be about 5% for a sample of dimensions 0.5 × 0.5 × 1 cm and around 50% for a sample of size 0.1 × 0.1 × 2 cm.
