Abstract:
La0.6Sr0.4Co0.2Fe0.8O3 (LSCF)−La0.8Sr0.2MnO3 (LSM) heterostructure crystalline materials have been synthesized in a simple, one-step via reaction-deposition process using a molten salt. Two-phase perovskite composites can be synthesized in times as short as 10 minutes in a molten salt solvent. X-ray diffraction and S/TEM energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy have been utilized to confirm the formation of an LSM shell on LSCF cores in all samples when adjusting dwell time, core size, weight ratio between core and shell precursors, and weight ratio of powder to salt. Specifically, decreasing the LSCF core size increases core−shell yield. Smaller cores result in a greater density of facets on the crystal surface and provide more favorable sites for LSM heterogeneous nucleation. By decreasing the weight ratio of shell precursor to core decreases shell thickness, and reduces the number of homogeneously nucleated LSM nanoparticles, and thereby increases core−shell yield. Increasing the amount of molten salt solvent relative to precursors decreases supersaturation in the melt and results in less uniform, and isolated shell deposition on the cores. The synthesized heterostructred nanoparticles have been functionalized into electrodes for solid oxide fuel cells and electrolysis cells. Symmetrical cells fabricated from baseline LSCF electrodes are compared with symmetrical cells fabricated from the molten salt-synthesized heterostructred electrodes. The heterostructured electrodes are shown to have significantly lower polarization resistance compared to baseline LSCF electrodes, showing the promise of the molten salt process to achieve heterostructured electrodes with substantially reduced polarization resistance.

Abstract:
Highly luminescent LaPO4:Eu3+/LaPO4 one-dimensional (1D) core/shell heterostructures were successfully synthesized by a mild and simple self-aggregation process under refluxing or hydrothermal conditions. The resulting 1D core/shell heterostructures were characterized using a variety of techniques including X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), selected area electron diffraction (SAED), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) to demonstrate successful coating by the crystalline LaPO4. In addition, a possible formation mechanism for this core/shell heterostructure was proposed. Finally, the photoluminescence property of the LaPO4:Eu3+/LaPO4 1D core/shell heterostructures was investigated in detail, which illustrates that the core/shell heterostructures remarkably increase the luminescence efficiency because the LaPO4 shells effectively eliminate surface trap-states and suppress the energy quenching in the energy-transfer processes.

Full text
Abstract:
A thermoelastic model is proposed to determine elastic strain effects on electronic properties of spherical Type I and Type II heterostructure core/shell quantum dots (QDs) as a function of dimensions of constituent semiconductors at any temperature. Proposed model takes into account the difference between lattice constants, linear expansion coefficients and anisotropy of elastic moduli (Young's modulus and Poisson's ratio) of constituent semiconductors, respectively. In analogous to lattice mismatch, we introduce so called the elastic anisotropy mismatch in heterostructures. Compressive strain acting on core (shell) side of heterointerfaces in CdSe/CdS, CdSe/ZnS, and ZnSe/ZnS QDs increases (decreases) as shell diameter is increased, which causes increase (decrease) in core bandgap as sell (core) diameter is increased in these nanostructures. Furthermore, there is a parabolic increase in conduction band offsets and core bandgaps in CdSe/CdS, CdSe/ZnS, and ZnSe/ZnS QDs and decrease in conduction band offset and core bandgap of ZnSe/CdS QD as core (shell) diameter increases for fixed shell (core) diameter. Comparison shows that using isotropic elastic moduli in determining band offsets and core band gaps gives better agreement with experiment than anisotropic elastic moduli for core bandgaps of CdSe/CdS, CdSe/ZnS, ZnSe/ZnS, and ZnSe/CdS core/shell QDs. Furthermore, we also show that the strain-modified two band effective mass approximation can be used to determine band offsets by using measured core band gaps in core/shell heterostructure QDs with Type II interface band alignment. Excellent agreement between predicted and measured core bandgaps in CdSe and ZnSe based core/shell QDs suggests that proposed model can be a good design tool for process simulation of core/shell heterostructure QDs.

Abstract:
ABSTRACTNanowire heterostructures comprised of cobalt oxide and tungsten oxide were fabricated in a core/shell configuration. This was achieved by sputter coating tungsten oxide shells on standing cobalt oxide nanowires on a substrate. To ensure the polycrystallinity of tungsten oxide shell, the nanowire heterostructures were subjected to post-sputtering annealing process. The cobalt oxide nanowires for this study were grown employing a thermal method via vapor-solid growth mechanism. The crystal structures, morphologies, dimensions, and phases at various growth stages of nanowire heterostructures were studied using high resolution electron microscopy, energy dispersive spectroscopy, and X-ray diffraction methods. The interfaces of these nanowire heterostructures were also studied and showed variation in the lattice spacing across the heterostructure diameter. Results indicated that the cobalt oxide nanowires survived multiple processing steps and resulted in stable heterostructure configurations. The investigation shows, for the first time, a dry processing route for the formation of such novel nanowire heterostructures.

Abstract:
Realizing a tubular conduction channel within a one-dimensional core–shell nanowire (NW) enables better understanding of quantum phenomena and exploration of electronic device applications. Herein, we report the growth of a SiGe(P)/Si core/shell NW heterostructure using a chemical vapor deposition coupled with vapor–liquid–solid growth mechanism. The entire NW heterostructure behaves as a p-type semiconductor, which demonstrates that the high-density carriers are confined within the 4 nm-thick Si shell and form a tubular conduction channel. These findings are confirmed by both calculations and the gate-dependent current–voltage ( I d– V g) characteristics. Atomic resolution microscopic analyses suggest a coherent epitaxial core/shell interface where strain is released by forming dislocations along the axial direction of the NW heterostructure. Additional surface passivation achieved via growing a SiGe(P)/Si/SiGe core/multishell NW heterostructure suggests potential strategies to enhance the tubular carrier density, which could be further modified by improving multishell crystallinity and structural design.

Full text
Abstract:
A core–shell nanowire heterostructure is an important building block for nanowire-based optoelectronic devices. In this paper, the shape and composition evolution induced by adatom diffusion is investigated by constructing a growth model for alloy core–shell nanowire heterostructures, taking diffusion, adsorption, desorption and incorporation of adatoms into consideration. With moving boundaries accounting for sidewall growth, the transient diffusion equations are numerically solved by the finite element method. The adatom diffusions introduce the position-dependent and time-dependent adatom concentrations of components A and B. The newly grown alloy nanowire shell depends on the incorporation rates, resulting in both shape and composition evolution during growth. The results show that the morphology of nanowire shell strongly depends on the flux impingement angle. With the increase in this impingement angle, the position of the largest shell thickness on sidewall moves down to the bottom of nanowire and meanwhile, the contact angle between shell and substrate increases to an obtuse angle. Coupled with the shell shapes, the composition profiles are shown as non-uniform along both the nanowire and the shell growth directions, which can be attributed to the adatom diffusion of components A and B. The impacts of parameters on the shape and composition evolution are systematically investigated, including diffusion length, adatom lifetime and corresponding ratios between components. This kinetic model is expected to interpret the contribution of adatom diffusion in growing alloy group-IV and group III-V core–shell nanowire heterostructures.

Abstract:
LEDs based on planar InGaN/GaN heterostructures define an important standard for solid-state lighting. However, one drawback is the polarization field of the wurtzite heterostructure impacting both electron–hole overlap and emission energy. Three-dimensional core–shell microrods offer field-free sidewalls, thus improving radiative recombination rates while simultaneously increasing the light-emitting area per substrate size. Despite those promises, microrods have still not replaced planar devices. In this review, we discuss the progress in device processing and analysis of microrod LEDs and emphasize the perspectives related to the 3D device architecture from an applications point of view.

Abstract:
This article describes the effective synthesis of colloidal SnO2 quantum dots and ZnWO4 nanorods using wet chemical synthesis and hydrothermal synthesis, respectively. The resulting ZnWO4-SnO2 core–shell nanorod heterostructure is then made, and its structural, optical, and morphological properties are assessed using XRD, SEM, TEM, and DRS. The heterojunction’s structural confinement increases the exposure of its reactive sites, and its electronic confinement promotes its redox activity. The heterostructure subsequently exhibits a smaller bandgap and better light-harvesting capabilities, resulting in increased photoelectrochemical performance. The heterostructure of core–shell nanorods shows promise for usage in a range of optoelectronic devices and effective solar energy conversion.

Abstract:
Transition metal sulfides have attracted a lot of attention as potential oxygen evolution reaction (OER) catalysts. Bimetallic sulfide possesses superior physicochemical properties due to the synergistic effect between bimetallic cations. By introducing a metal-semiconductor interface, the physicochemical properties of transition metal sulfide can be further improved. Using the solvothermal method, Au@NiCo2S4 core-shell heterostructure nanoparticles (NPs) and bare NiCo2S4 NPs were prepared. The measurement of the OER catalytic performance showed that the catalytic activity of Au@NiCo2S4 core-shell heterostructure was enhanced compared to bare NiCo2S4 NPs. At the current density of 10 mA cm−2, the overpotential of Au@NiCo2S4 (299 mV) is lower than that of bare NiCo2S4 (312 mV). The Tafel slope of Au@NiCo2S4 (44.5 mV dec−1) was reduced compared to that of bare NiCo2S4 (49.1 mV dec−1), indicating its faster reaction kinetics. Detailed analysis of its electronic structure, chemical state, and electrochemical impedance indicates that the enhanced OER catalytic performances of bare Au@NiCo2S4 core-shell NPs were a result of its increased proportion of high-valance Ni/Co cations, and its increased electronic conductivity. This work provides a feasible method to improve OER catalytic performance by constructing a metal-semiconductor core-shell heterostructure.

Abstract:
Integration of low bandgap antimonide based nanowires on Si substrate has been attracting huge attention for opto-electronic applications. In this work we demonstrated InAs/InSb and InAs/GaSb heterostructure nanowires on Si substrate by metal organic chemical vapor deposition. We grew high quality axial InSb heterostructure segment on InAs stem by self-catalyzed growth technique, which paves a way to tune the crystal structure of InSb. In case of InAs-GaSb core-shell architecture, GaSb crystal quality highly depends on InAs core. We successfully demonstrated basic electrical characteristics of InAs-GaSb core-shell nanowire which exhibits negative differential resistance at 0.8 V and peak-to-valley current ratio of 3.84.

Abstract:
Core/shell hetero-nanostructures are promising materials for fabricating optoelectronic devices, photodetectors, bioimaging, and biosensing. The CdSe/CdS core/shell nanocrystals (NCs) were synthesized in a wet chemical reaction. The shell thickness was modified by varying reaction times. The structure and optical properties as a function of the CdS shell thickness were investigated. A systematic redshift of the first exciton absorption peaks and photoluminescent (PL) spectra occurred after coating with CdS confirmed the shell growth over the CdSe core. The PL's intensity increased compared with that of bare NCs. The formation of high-quality NCs with uniform size distribution was shown in the transmission electron microscopy (TEM) image and confirmed by the narrow PL band and small FWHM.

Full text
Abstract:
In this study, silver orthophosphate@carbon layer ( Ag 3 PO 4@ C ) core/shell heterostructure photocatalyst was prepared for the first time. The results showed that a uniform carbon layer was formed around the Ag 3 PO 4. By adjusting the hydrothermal fabrication parameters, the thickness of carbon layer could be easily controlled. Furthermore, the Ag 3 PO 4@ C had remarkable light absorption in the visible region. Photocatalytic tests displayed that the Ag 3 PO 4@ C heterostructures possessed a much higher degradation rate of phenol than pure Ag 3 PO 4 under visible light. The enhanced photocatalytic activity could be attributed to high separation efficiency of photogenerated electrons and holes based on the synergistic effect between carbon as a sensitizer and Ag 3 PO 4. Recycle tests showed that the Ag 3 PO 4@ C core/shell heterostructures maintained high stability over several cycles. The good stability could be attributed to the protection of insoluble carbon layer on the surfaces of Ag 3 PO 4 crystals in aqueous solution.

Abstract:
Microstructure engineering of thermoelectric materials can resolve the conflicts of electrical and thermal transports. Especially, one-dimensional structure can obviously improve the thermoelectric figure of merit because of its crystal anisotropy and strong quantum confinement effect. In this paper, the Te nanowires, one-dimensional core-shell heterostructure of Te/Bi and Te/Bi2Te3 were controlled synthesized by microwave assisted chemical synthesis. The effect of PVP concentration and reductant dropping rate on the microstructure of the Te nanowires were investigated. The experimental results showed that with increasing the amount of PVP, the Te nanowires got less crystallinity and its surface become more rough due to its steric hindrance effect. With decreasing reductant dropping rate, the longer and thiner Te nanowires were obtained. Epitaxial growth can describe the relation of core Te and shell Bi (or Bi2Te3). It has been found that Bi shell uniformly surrounded around Te nanowires core, but Bi2Te3 sheets were perpendicular to the c-axis of Te nanowires. The different core-shell heterostructure structure can be obtained by adjusting reaction conditions and controlling diffusion kinetics of Te and Bi.

Abstract:
The ability to control the active edge sites of transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) is crucial for modulating their chemical activity for various electrochemical applications, including hydrogen evolution reactions. In this study, we demonstrate a colloidal synthetic method to prepare core-shell-like heterostructures composed of MoSe2 and WSe2 via a two-step sequential growth. By overgrowing WSe2 on the surface of preexisting MoSe2 nanosheet edges, MoSe2-core/WSe2-shell heterostructures were successfully obtained. Systematic comparisons of the secondary growth time and sequential order of growth suggest that the low synthetic temperature conditions allow the stable overgrowth of shells rich in WSe2 on top of the core of MoSe2 with low Gibbs formation energy. The electrochemical analysis confirms that the catalytic activity correlates to the core-shell composition variation. Our results propose a new strategy to control the edge site activity of TMD materials prepared by colloidal synthesis, which is applicable to diverse electrochemical applications.

Abstract:
Core-shell GaN/AlGaN multiple quantum wells (MQWs) embedded in a p–n junction are integrated on the upper part of GaN microwires grown by silane-assisted metal organic vapor phase epitaxy. Dispersed wires are then contacted by electron beam induced deposition for fabrication of single wire UV-LED devices. Rectifying diode-like behavior is first demonstrated for both GaN and GaN/AlGaN p-n junctions without a MQW active region. A weak leakage current in the GaN/AlGaN core-shell heterostructure is attributed to an additional conduction path along wire sidewalls. Electroluminescence at 340 nm in UV-A is demonstrated using a GaN (2.6 nm)/Al0.3Ga0.7N (3 nm) heterostructure embedded in a GaN/Al0.3Ga0.7N p–n junction. This value is even decreased to 310 nm by reducing the well thickness to 0.9 nm and increasing the Al-content of barriers (up to 60%) integrated in the GaN/Al0.3Ga0.7N p–n junction. This work demonstrates UV-B emission based on single wire core-shell UV-LEDs.

Abstract:
Abstract A core–shell heterojunction has been developed to fabricate efficient optoelectronic devices by optimizing the light absorption and promoting the generation and extraction of charge carriers. Herein, the CdS@CsPbBr3 core–shell microwire (MW) heterojunction was structured via a two-step chemical vapor deposition and was further used to fabricate a UV–Vis photodetector. The photodetector performance is greatly dependent on the thickness of the CsPbBr3 shell. Growth time of 60 min could produce about 80 nm thick CsPbBr3 shell with excellent coverage and adhesion, resulting in optimized performance parameters. As compared with bare cadmium sulfide (CdS) MW photodetector, the CdS@CsPbBr3 core–shell MW heterojunction photodetector exhibits relatively high ratio of photocurrent and dark current (104), much higher light responsivity (319.79 A W−1) and faster response time (6.6 ms). The responsivity is 3.3 times to the value of bare CdS photodetector and the photocurrent increases nearly 10 times. The significant performance parameters mainly result from the formation of a type-II energy band structure and the reduction of the defects states on CdS surface, leading to the obviously improved carriers transport process. The results indicate that the CdS@CsPbBr3 core–shell MW heterojunction is a promising potential candidate to construct high-performance electronic and optoelectronic devices.

Abstract:
In this study, an efficient method to synthesize CuO-CuS core-shell nanowires by two-step annealing process was reported. CuO nanowires were prepared on copper foil via thermal oxidation in a three-zone horizontal tube furnace. To obtain larger surface area for photocatalytic applications, we varied four processing parameters, finding that growth at 550 °C for 3 h with 16 °C/min of the ramping rate under air condition led to CuO nanowires of appropriate aspect ratio and number density. The second step, sulfurization process, was conducted to synthesize CuO-CuS core-shell nanowires by annealing with sulfur powder at 250 °C for 30 min under lower pressure. High-resolution transmission electron microscopy studies show that a 10 nm thick CuS shell formed and the growth mechanism of the nanowire heterostructure has been proposed. With BET, the surface area was measured to be 135.24 m2·g−1. The photocatalytic properties were evaluated by the degradation of methylene blue (MB) under visible light irradiation. As we compared CuO-CuS core-shell nanowires with CuO nanowires, the 4-hour degradation rate was enhanced from 67% to 89%. This could be attributed to more effective separation of photoinduced electron and hole pairs in the CuO-CuS heterostructure. The results demonstrated CuO-CuS core-shell nanowires as a promising photocatalyst for dye degradation in polluted water.

Abstract:
Controlling nanomaterial shape beyond its basic dimensionality is a concurrent challenge tackled by several growth and processing avenues. One of these is strain engineering of nanowires, implemented through the growth of asymmetrical heterostructures. Here, we report metal–organic molecular beam epitaxy of bent InP/InAs core/shell nanowires brought by precursor flow directionality in the growth chamber. We observe the increase of bending with decreased core diameter. We further analyze the composition of a single nanowire and show through supporting finite element simulations that strain accommodation following the lattice mismatch between InP and InAs dominates nanowire bending. The simulations show the interplay between material composition, shell thickness, and tapering in determining the bending. The simulation results are in good agreement with the experimental bending curvature, reproducing the radius of 4.3 µm (±10%), for the 2.3 µm long nanowire. The InP core of the bent heterostructure was found to be compressed at about 2%. This report provides evidence of shape control and strain engineering in nanostructures, specifically through the exchange of group-V materials in III–V nanowire growth.

Abstract:
Varying structure Bi2Te3-based nanocomposite powders including pure Bi2Te3, Bi2Te3/Bi core−shell, and Bi2Te3/AgBiTe2 heterostructure were synthesized by hydrothermal synthesis using Bi2S3 as the template and hydrazine as the reductant. Successful realization of Bi2Te3-based nanostructures were concluded from XRD, FESEM, and TEM. In this work, the improvement in the performance of the rhodamine B (RhB) decomposition efficiency under visible light was discussed. The Bi2Te3/AgBiTe2 heterostructures revealed propitious photocatalytic performance ca. 90% after 60 min. The performance was over Bi2Te3/Bi core-shell nanostructures (ca. 40%) and more, exceeding pure Bi2Te3 (ca. 5%). The reason could be scrutinized in terms of the heterojunction structure, improving the interfacial contact between Bi2Te3 and AgBiTe2 and enabling retardation in the recombination rate of the photogenerated charge carriers. A credible mechanism of the charge transfer process in the Bi2Te3/AgBiTe2 heterostructures for the decomposition of an aqueous solution of RhB was also explicated. In addition, this work also investigated the stability and recyclability of a Bi2Te3/AgBiTe2 heterojunction nanostructure photocatalyst. In addition, this paper anticipates that the results possess broad potential in the photocatalysis field for the design of a visible light functional and reusable heterojunction nanostructure photocatalyst.

Abstract:
AbstractNanoparticles composed of a magnetic iron oxide core surrounded by a metal shell have utility in a broad range of biomedical applications. However, the presence of surface energy differences between the two components makes wetting of oxide with metal unfavorable, precluding a “core–shell” structure of an oxide core completely surrounded by a thin metal shell. Three-dimensional island growth followed by island coalescence into thick shells is favored over the two-dimensional layer-by-layer growth of a thin, continuous metal coating of a true core–shell. Aqueous synthesis of gold-coated magnetite nanoparticles with analysis by infrared, energy-dispersive X-ray, and electron energy loss spectroscopies; high-resolution transmission electron microscopy; selected area electron diffraction; and high-angle annular dark-field scanning transmission electron microscopy showed two distinct morphologies that are inconsistent with an idealized core–shell. The majority were isolated ~16–22-nm-diameter nanoparticles consisting of ~7-nm-diameter magnetite and a thick deposition of gold, most often discontinuous, with some potentially “sandwiched” morphologies. A minority were aggregates of agglomerated magnetite decorated with gold but displaying significant bare magnetite. Both populations were successfully conjugated to fibrinogen and targeted to surface-activated platelets, demonstrating that iron oxide–gold nanoparticles produced by aqueous synthesis do not require an ideal core–shell structure for biological activity in cell labeling and targeting applications.
