Abstract

Binary skutterudite CoSb(3) nanoparticles were synthesized by solvothermal method. The nanostructuring of CoSb(3) material was achieved by the inclusion of various kinds of additives. X-ray diffraction examination indicated the formation of the cubic phase of CoSb(3). Structural analysis by transmission electron microscopy analysis further confirmed the formation of crystalline CoSb(3) nanoparticles with high purity. With the assistance of additives, CoSb(3) nanoparticles with size as small as 10 nm were obtained. The effect of the nanostructure of CoSb(3) on the UV-visible absorption and luminescence was studied. The nanosized CoSb(3) skutterudite may find application in developing thermoelectric devices with better efficiency.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 14 January 2015.
All research outputs
#22,778,604
of 25,394,764 outputs
Outputs from Discover Nano
#803
of 1,150 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#98,625
of 103,558 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Discover Nano
#21
of 21 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,394,764 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 1,150 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.5. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 103,558 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 21 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
