What Factors Affect Charge Transfer in Nanomaterials?
Several factors influence charge transfer in nanomaterials, including:
Material Composition: The type of atoms and their arrangement can impact the ease with which electrons move. Surface Chemistry: Functional groups and adsorbed molecules can either facilitate or hinder charge transfer. Size and Shape: The dimensions of nanoparticles and their morphology can significantly affect electron mobility. Temperature: Higher temperatures generally increase electron mobility but can also introduce more scattering events.
