In this work we elucidate the role of hexamine and other precursors in the formation of magnetite nanorods by the hydrothermal route and their stoichiometry. Various others hydrolyzing agents such as sodium hydroxide (NaOH), sodium hydroxide + hexamine, ammonia (NH(3)), ammonia + formaldehyde are also studied. The synthesized nanoparticles are characterized with the help of various techniques such as X-ray diffraction (XRD), FT-IR spectroscopy, UV-VIS-NIR spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Mossbauer spectroscopy and SQUID magnetization measurements. It is found that only when ferric chloride, ferrous ammonium sulfate (FAS) and hexamine are used, well defined nanorods are formed. When sodium hydroxide and hexamine are used as a hydrolyzing system nearly spherical nanoparticles with small size (similar to 13 nm) are formed, as compared to the case of sodium hydroxide alone which leads to bigger cube like nanoparticles. Interestingly the decomposition products of hexamine do not lead to nanorod formation. Thus, slow decomposition of hexamine at elevated temperature and the consequent slow rise in pH is the key to the anisotropic growth of the iron oxide system.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">13</style></issue><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">3.453</style></custom4></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Dhas, Vivek V.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Muduli, Subas</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Agarkar, Shruti A.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Rana, Abhimanyu</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Hannoyer, Beatrice</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Banerjee, Rahul</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ogale, Satishchandra B.</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Enhanced DSSC performance with high surface area thin anatase TiO2 nanoleaves</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Solar Energy</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Dye-sensitized solar cells</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">hydrothermal</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2011</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">JUN</style></date></pub-dates></dates><number><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">6, SI</style></number><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD</style></publisher><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">THE BOULEVARD, LANGFORD LANE, KIDLINGTON, OXFORD OX5 1GB, ENGLAND</style></pub-location><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">85</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1213-1219</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Thin anatase TiO2 nanoleaves (NLs) with high surface area (similar to 93 m(2)/g) are synthesized by hydrothermal route and dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSC) made using such NLs are compared with those made with hydro-thermally synthesized TiO2 nanoparticles and the Degussa P25 powder. The NLs-based DSSCs show increment of 16% and 24% in the total conversion efficiency over the cells made with NPs and P25 respectively. Interestingly, the highest increment in the conversion efficiency (similar to 35%) is achieved for cells made using a 50:50 (wt/wt) mixture of NLs and NPs. In this case the dye loading is found to be &amp;gt;50% higher than the case of NP films. Moreover the DC resistance of diffusion of I-3(-) in electrolyte (as revealed by the electrochemical impedance spectroscopy) is substantially lower than the NP film case, other cell parameters being nominally comparable.

The absorption region is shown to be located on the laser illumination side, close to the specimen apex. A simple model based on thermal diffusivity and spatial extent of the absorption region is derived and applied to the experimental results. The values of thermal diffusivity thus obtained are in good agreement with the published data. (C) 2011 American Institute of Physics.
