In situ synthesis involves chemical reactions that take place within a specific environment to form nanostructures. This can be achieved through various techniques, including chemical vapor deposition (CVD), sol-gel processes, and hydrothermal synthesis. The key aspect is that the precursor materials are introduced into the system, where they undergo reactions to form the desired nanoparticles within the host matrix. This approach ensures a more uniform distribution and better integration of the nanoparticles.
