Fig. 6. Te nanoparticles used for water evaporation.

Fig. 6

(A) Measured UV-vis–NIR absorption spectrum of Te nanoparticle colloid solution (5 μg/ml). Inset: Gray Te nanoparticle colloid solution synthesized by ns-LAL. (B) ICP-AES analysis results of Te in the water before and after evaporation. The deionized water is used for reference. The dashed boxes indicate that the concentration is lower than the detection limit of ~0.05 μg/ml. (C) Vaporized weight of Te nanoparticle solutions with different concentrations under the illumination of simulated sunlight at 78.9 mW/cm2. (D) Vaporized weight of Te nanoparticle solutions (10 μg/ml) under different illuminations of simulated sunlight.
