Abstract

C–Si–H-doped Co1–xO particulates/nanocondensates of rocksalt-derived types were formed by pulsed laser ablation of metallic Co plate in tetraethyl orthosilicate and characterized by X-ray/electron diffraction and vibrational/optical spectroscopy. Such crystals were found to contain (001) paracrystal plate having defect cluster periodicity ca. 2.5 times that of the host lattice, and 1D 3x and 5x{111} commensurate superstructures along with (111) (Co/CoO) n multilayer. The (Co/CoO) n multilayer by (111)-specific faulting and oxygen diffusion is of interest to the synthesis of cermet, in particular giant magnetoresistance material, whereas the overall substances with characteristic vibration modes, binding energy and UV–visible absorptions (3.1 and 3.7 eV) may have potential optocatalytic applications.
