Summary: | Core/Shell nanoparticles(CSNPs) are a type of nanomaterial that consists of two components: a core and outer shell composed of distinct materials. CSNPs have received increasing attention over the past decade due to their tunable optical properties and wide applicability in the biomedicine, semiconductor and catalyst fields. Nonthermal plasma approaches for synthesis of CSNPs have limit agglomeration while enabling crystalline growth at low reactor temperatures. Prior works have shown the capability to synthesize germanium-silicon CSNPs using nonthermal plasmas [1], [2]. However, there still exists challenges in synthesizing CSNPs with consistent specifications due to size uniformity, core and shell purity variation that occurs under diverse operating conditions. |
