Abstract:
In recent years, significant research efforts have been made for developing new materials on the length scale of approximately 1 – 100 nm. These nanomaterials have become the focus of the investigations currently due to its rule for progressing industry and technology. There are many methods which are related to the synthesis of various shapes of nanomaterials such as belts, wires, tubes and rods. These methods are vapor-solid, vapor-liquid-solid and hydrothermal process. However most of these methods involve many complex steps and expensive equipment. Since simple and cost effective routes to synthesize nanomaterials by utilization of cheap, nontoxic and environmentally being precursors are still the key issues. So in the present work we will review how we can control the preparation of nanomaterials through simple, cost effective, and easy methods to obtain nanomaterials with required properties for different applications. The utilization of the obtained nanomaterials on the fields: water treatment, cancer therapeutics, antibacterial, solar cells, biosensors and power semiconductors devices will be discussed.
