Article Synopsis
- This study examines how the binding strength and structural integrity at the interface between metal ions and host materials affect the properties of nanocomposites, specifically those made with gold nanoparticles.
- Two types of matrices, CeO-ZrO and CeO-AlO, were created and analyzed using various methods to understand their structural and electronic characteristics.
- Results showed that gold embeds better in the CeO-ZrO matrix than in CeO-AlO, leading to smaller particle sizes and enhanced electronic properties, such as a lower band gap and improved electron transfer in the former.
