Synthesis of reverse micelle alpha-FeOOH nanoparticles in ionic liquid as an only electrolyte: inhibition of electron-hole pair recombination for efficient photoactivity

Discrete alpha-FeOOH nanoparticles (5-10 nm) were synthesized by a simple electrochemical method using an ionic liquid (IL), dodecyltrimethylammonium bromide (IL - FeOOH). IL that acts as an only electrolyte is capable of producing IL - FeOOH nanoparticles without any agglomeration. Its crystallinit...
