A novel method for metal oxide nanowire synthesis.

چکیده
Nanowires (NWs) of metal oxides (Fe(2)O(3), CuO, V(2)O(5) and ZnO) were grown by an efficient non-catalytic economically favorable method based on resistive heating of pure metal wires or foils at ambient conditions. The growth rate of iron oxide NWs exceeds 100 nm s(-1). Produced NWs were typically 1-5 microm long with diameters from 10 to 50 nm. The produced metal oxide NWs were characterized by means of SEM, TEM, EDX, XPS and Raman techniques. The field emission measurements from the as-produced CuO NWs were found to have a threshold field as low as 4 V microm(-1) at 0.01 mA cm(-2). The formation mechanism of the NWs is discussed.

متن کاملA Scalable Method for the Synthesis of Metal Oxide Nanowires
We report a novel, scaleable and versatile method for large scale synthesis of tungsten trioxide nanowires and their arrays on a variety of substrates including amorphous quartz, fluorinated tin oxide, etc. The synthesis concept uses the chemical vapor transport of metal oxide vapor phase species onto substrates using air or oxygen flow over hot-filament sources. The hot-filaments were designed...
متن کاملDensity-controlled growth of aligned ZnO nanowire arrays by seedless chemical approach on smooth surfaces
A novel ZnO seedless chemical approach for density-controlled growth of ZnO nanowire (NW) arrays has been developed. The density of ZnO NWs is controlled by changing the precursor concentration. Effects of both growth temperature and growth time are also investigated. By this novel synthesis technique, ZnO NW arrays can grow on any substrate (polymer, glass, semiconductor, metal, and more) as l...
متن کاملEffect of temperature and time on morphology of CuO nanoparticle during synthesis
In the past decades, many methods have been developed to synthesize zero- dimensional nanoparticles, quasi–one–dimensional (1D) CuO nanostructures, such as metal organic deposition technique, microwave irradiation, sol-gel-like dip technique, reverse micelle-assisted route, chemical method, and simple template free solution route. Among those synthesis methods, hydrothermal and chemical reac...
