专利号:US-9183993-B2 优先权日:2014-01-10 标 题 :One-pot synthesis of Nb2O5-doped TiO2 nanoparticles 发明人:FENG SHIEN-PING; SU HAIJUN; CHANG YA-HUEI; HUANG YU-TING; HAU NGA YU; ZHAI PENG 权利人:NANO & ADVANCED MATERIALS INST LTD 摘要:A one-pot synthesis of Nb 5+ -doped TiO 2 nanoparticles (NPs) with low cost and high efficiency for dye sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) is disclosed in the present invention. The Nb 5+ -doped TiO 2 NPs with Nb dopants of 0Ëœ5 mol % are prepared by directly mixing TiO 2 slurry with Nb 2 O 5 gel obtained by UV treatment of a mixture of NbCl 5 powder, ethanol and water in a certain ratio, following by heat treatment without using hydrothermal method. The as-prepared NPs exhibit well-crystallized pure anatase TiO 2 phase with uniform particle distribution. The incorporation of Nb 5+ leads to a stronger and broader light absorption in visible light range and a decrease of band gap with increasing Nb dopant content, which enhances the efficiencies of light-harvesting and electron injection and suppresses the charge recombination. The present method provides a simple and cost-effective mass-production route to synthesize n-type metallic ion doped TiO 2 nanoparticles as excellent photoanode materials.

As a modification of the process, add an intermediate step between steps a. and b. to dry the homo geneous mixture at a temperature within a range of from 50° C. to 90° C. for a period of time within a range of from 10 minutes to 600 minutes to form a dried mixture. The resulting catalyst may be used in oxidative dehydrogenation of ethane.

专利号:US-6395350-B1 优先权日:1997-10-29 标题 :Mesoporous transition metal oxide thin films and methods of making and uses thereof 发明人:BALKUS KENNETH J JR; KINSEL MARY E 权利人:UNIV TEXAS 摘要:Mesoporous transition metal oxide thin films and methods for producing these films are provided. Also provided are methods of fabricating useful chemical sensors and electrochromic devices from the thin films of the invention. Certain mesoporous transition metal oxide molecular sieves may be used as targets for pulsed laser ablation under controlled atmosphere, resulting in deposition of a thin film of the target material upon a substrate of choice. The thin films possess a mesoporous structure which may be enhanced by means of a hydrothermal treatment. The thin films also may be treated with a means of removing the templating agent used during synthesis of the mesoporous target material.
专利号:US-5051280-A 优先权日:1990-10-01 标 题:Low temperature synthesis of alkali metal niobates and tantalates 发明人:HUNG YANN 权利人:EASTMAN KODAK CO 摘要:A new synthetic method for the production of alkali metal niobates and tantalates is disclosed. The method involves the pyrolysis of a stoichiometric salt of an alkali metal and a niobium or tantalum complex of a bidentate or tridentate ligand. These salts are stable and, since the alkali metal and the niobioum or tantalum are already present in stoichiometric amounts, the resulting material comprises a substantially pure alkali metal niobate or tantalate.
