Popis: | "Bismuth nano-sized particles were prepared by the chemical reduction method. These particles were characterized by HR-TEM, X-Ray Diffraction and Micro-Raman Spectroscopy. In order to obtain bismuth oxide, the as-obtained bismuth nano-particles were thermally treated in air at various temperatures in the range 100-750 0C during 30 min. The thermally treated samples were studied by Micro-Raman Spectroscopy. Additionally, information on the chemical composition and morphology was obtained by Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy and Scanning Electron Microscopy, respectively. Results show that bismuth nano-particles were oxidized at 100 oC and transformed into three of the five phases of Bi2O3 reported in literature; the obtained phase depends on the annealing temperature. The β-Bi2O3 phase was obtained for 200-300 0C, α-Bi2O3 for 400-600 0C and finally γ-Bi2O3 for 700-750 0C." |
