3. Nanostructured materials
• The term “nanostructure” is used for materials with at least one dimension in
the range of 1–100 nm.
Classification of Nanostructured materials
1) Zero-dimensional (0D) nanostructures
• all dimensions below 100nm
• nanoparticles, nanospheres, quantum dots and nanodots
2) One-dimensional (1D) nanostructures
• only two dimension below 100nm
• nanotubes, nanorods, nanobelts, nanoneedles, nanoribbons and nanowires,
nanofibers
3) Two-dimensional (2D) nanostructures
• only one dimension below 100nm
• thin films, nanocoatings, nanolayers nanoprisms, nanoplates, nanosheets,
nanowalls, and nanodisks
4) Three-dimensional (3D) nanostructures
• all three dimensions above 100nm
• nanoballs, nanocoils, nanocones, nanopillers, nanoflower
4. Synthesis of Nanostructured Materials
Top-down approach
• nanostructured materials are derived by reducing bulk materials into the
desired nanometer size materials by mechanical milling, lithography,
etching etc.
Bottom-up approach
• nanostructured material is obtained from the atomic or molecular level and
gradually assembled until the desired structure is formed.
Top Down Approach Bottom Up Approach
Sputtering technique Hydrothermal and solvothermal
Lithography processes Sol–gel technique
Etching Chemical vapour deposition
Mechanical Milling Electrochemical deposition
Laser pyrolysis
5. Hydrothermal and solvothermal techniques
• In hydrothermal/solvothermal process, a chemical reaction takes
place in a closed system in the presence of a solvent
• The chemical reaction in this method is carried out in a special
apparatus called a hydrothermal reactor
• The reaction parameters such as temperature, reaction time, pH,
solvent, surfactant, filling factor, and the concentrations of
precursors

7. Sol-gel technique
• In this technique, the molecular precursor is dissolved in solvent to form
sol and the sol is converted into a gel
• The following steps involved sol-gel method;
a) hydrolysis of the precursor and solvents
b) polycondensation reaction takes place
c) Drying
d) Calcination
• The morphology and dimensions of the final product depend on various factors
such as type of solvent, precursor nature, hydrolysis rate, pH, and temperature

• Lee et al. synthesized the ZnO nanoparticles by sol-gel method and studied pH's
effect on the particles sizes.
• smaller size nanoparticles obtained at lower pH precursor
