Conducting polymer/graphene-based material composites, and methods for preparing the composites

The present invention relates to a novel method for preparing a new type of catalyst for the oxidation of CO in a reactant gas or air. The method provides the preparation of a catalyst having nano-sized metal particles and a capping agent deposited on a solid support. The size and distribution of the metal particles can be easily controlled by adjusting reaction condition and the capping agent used. The catalyst prepared has high activity at low temperature toward selective oxidation of CO and is stable over an extended period of time. The catalyst can be used in air filter devices, hydrogen purification processes, automotive emission control devices (decomposition of NOx, x is the integer 1 or 2), F-T synthesis, preparation of fuel-cell electrode, photocatalysis and sensors.

Highly dispersed metal catalysts

A growth method is proposed for high quality zinc oxide comprising the following steps: (1) growing a gallium nitride layer on a sapphire substrate around a temperature of 1000&#xb0; C.; (2) patterning a SiOmask into stripes oriented in the gallium nitride &#x3c;100&#x3e; or &#x3c;110&#x3e; direction; (3) growing epitaxial lateral overgrowth of (ELO) gallium nitride layers by controlling the facet planes via choosing the growth temperature and the reactor; (4) depositing zinc oxide films on facets ELO gallium nitride templates by chemical vapor deposition (CVD). Zinc oxide crystal of high quality with a reduced number of crystal defects can be grown on a gallium nitride template. This method can be used to fabricate zinc oxide films with low dislocation density lower than 10/cm, which will find important applications in future electronic and optoelectronic devices.

This invention is directed to a method of reversibly storing hydrogen comprising exposing a solid sorbent of metal-doped carbon-based material to a hydrogen atmosphere at a temperature of from about 250 K to about 973 K under ambient or higher pressure. The metal-doped carbon-based material is generally an alkali metal-doped carbon-based material prepared by mixing a carbon material with an alkali metal salt and calcining the mixture under an atmosphere of inert or reductive gas.
