Abstract In this study, the easy-to-operate silver mirror reaction (SMR) was used for metallizing chromatography paper. The SMR-metallized paper was characterized by water contact angle measurements, a surface profiler, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, UV-vis spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, and electrical resistance measurement. The characterization results show that Ag was successfully synthesized on cellulose fibers and was electrically conductive after cyclic bending. Moreover, this SMR-metallized paper was used as electrodes for fabricating a supercapacitor. This SMR-metallized paper could be used for realizing cost-effective flexible electronics applied in on-site biochemical sensing in resource-limited settings.

ABSTRACTIn this paper, we report the characterization of vertically aligned ZnO nanowire (NW) arrays synthesized by metal-catalyzed chemical vapor deposition. The growth mechanism of ZnO NWs may be related to vapor-solid-nucleation. Morphological, structural, optical and field emission characteristics can be modified by varying the growth time. For growth time reaches 120 min, the length and the diameter of ZnO NWs are 1.5 μm and 350 nm, and they also show preferential growth orientation along the c-axis. Moreover, strong alignment and uniform distribution of ZnO NWs can effectively enhance the antireflection to reach the average reflectance of 5.7% in the visible region as well. Field emission measurement indicated that the growth time play an important role in density- and morphology-controlled ZnO NWs, and thus ZnO NWs are expected to be used in versatile optoelectronic devices.
