Tunable Laser-patterned Dynamic Ag☆O Nano-twinklers: A Comparative Study of Nano-fireworks on ZnO Nanowires and Graphene Oxide Film

GO film is determined to be more effective than ZnO nanowires in assisting the formation of intermittent blinking Ag@AgO nanoparticles due to flatter surface and greater abundance of oxygen groups and defect sites.

Through conducting research and experiments in the Nanomaterials Lab, we have gained invaluable experiences and memories. We interacted with like-minded students who shared the same passion for research and expanded our horizons through constant reflection and discovery through the ups and downs we encountered. We can easily say that our time here was ultimately enriching and well spent, and we’re grateful for the guidance and support of our mentors and lab mates. ♡
