Outline of Final Research Achievements

In this research, nanoparticles of silicon, platinum alloy, and so on were produced through the nanoparticle synthesis process, which is called room-temperature ionic liquid-accelerated electron beam irradiation (RTIL-AEBI) method, by the combination of RTIL and AEBI. In order to clarify the nucleation and growth processes for the nanoparticles during the RTIL-AEBI method, similar reaction condition was replicated in a transmission electron microscope (TEM) system, and the whole processes were directly observed on a nanoscale. The resulting nanoparticles could be used for energy materials.
