The classical approach to the synthesis of nanostructured catalysts and materials of different morphologies and grain sizes has been one that heavily relies on detailed experimentation, altering the chemistry of synthesis to achieve the desired material. Our view has been that this approach, although successful for the synthesis of a wide range of nanostructured materials, requires too many experiments and is generally not a priori predictable. As a consequence, the direction of nanostructured materials synthesis in our laboratories has been to examine the application of various mechanical techniques that have sufficient process-parameter variability to afford...

A way to see the importance that is given to nanostructured materials synthesis processes is to consult the historical of article publishing concerning this subject. Indeed, based on Fig. 1.1, which presents a survey about nanoparticles or nanoma-terials synthesis processes, it is possible to observe a yearly increment of number of papers published on this subject. For example, in 2012 only, over 19,000 papers were available in the international literature regarding the synthesis of nanomaterials. It is circa 18 % more than the year before and over nine times more than 2003. Up to July 2013, the impressive number of 20,925 papers were already published about this same subject... 

Application of the above techniques has enabled the synthesis of a range of nanostructured materials with tunable composition, physical properties, and...

In recent years, it has been recognized that sonochemistry is one of the new techniques for the synthesis of functional nanoparticles and nanostructured materials, because unique reactions can be induced by the irradiation of a liquid even at around room temperature. 

It is important to understand the reduction mechanism of metal ions, because the reduction processes can be applied to the synthesis of various metal nanoparticles and nanostructured materials. Therefore, the reduction mechanism of metal ions is...
