On the quest for deterministic approach to plasma synthesis and conversion of nanowires

In this invited lecture, plasma was presented as a deterministic tool for the synthesis of metal oxide nanowires and their further transformation into metal sulfides. The lecture also covered the principle of testing the ability of metal oxides for desulfurisation.

How to design nanocatalysts with plasma?

This popular science lecture presented many years of experience in plasma synthesis of nanocrystals, which have been accumulated through many years of cooperation in this field between the Jožef Stefan Institute and the University of Louisville, USA.

Phase transformations in copper oxide nanowires

The synthesis of copper oxide nanowires in plasma is very interesting in itself. However, when these nanowires are exposed to H2S plasma and the wires catalyze the gas, an exchange between oxygen and sulfur occurs. As a result, the metal oxide is converted to metal sulfide. If the thickness of the nanowires is below 10 nm, it is also possible to pass from a single crystal of oxide directly to a single crystal of sulfide.
