Glomerate GaN nanowires were synthesized on Si(111) substrates by annealing sputtered Ga2O3/Co films under flowing ammonia at temperature of 950 °C. X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, high resolution
transmission electron microscopy and Fourier transformed infrared spectra were used to characterize the morphology, crystallinity
and microstructure of the as-synthesized samples. Our results show that the samples are of hexagonal wurtzite structure. For
the majority of GaN nanowires, the length is up to tens of microns and the diameter is in the range of 50–200 nm. The growth
process of the GaN nanowires is dominated by Co–Ga–N alloy mechanism. 相似文献

The initial growth stage of the single-crystalline Sb and Co nanowires with preferential orientation was studied, which were synthesized in porous anodic alumina membranes by the pulsed electrodeposition technique. It was revealed that the initial growth of the nanowires is a three-dimensional nucleation process, and then gradually transforms to two-dimensional growth via progressive nucleation mechanism, which resulting in a structure transition from polycrystalline to single crystalline. The competition among the nuclei inside the nanoscaled-confined channel and the growth kinetics is responsible for the structure transition of the initial grown nanowires. 相似文献

Cu–ZnO and Mn–Cu–ZnO catalysts have been prepared by electrodeposition and tested for the synthesis of higher alcohols via CO hydrogenation. The catalysts were prepared in the form of nanowires and nanotubes using a nanoporous polycarbonate membrane, which served as a template for the electrodeposition of the precursor metals from an aqueous electrolyte solution. Electrodeposition was carried out using variable amounts of Zn(NO3)2, Cu(NO3)2, Mn(NO3)2 and NH4NO3 at different galvanostatic conditions. A fixed bed reactor was used to study the reaction of CO and H2 to produce alcohols at 270 °C, 10–20 bar, H2/CO = 2/1, and 10,000–33,000 scc/h gcat. In addition to methane and CO2, methanol was the main alcohol product. The addition of manganese to the Cu–ZnO catalyst increased the selectivity toward higher alcohols by reducing methane formation; however, CO2 selectivity remained high. Maximum ethanol selectivity was 5.5%, measured as carbon efficiency. 相似文献

The application of plasma-enhanced chemical vapour deposition (PECVD) in the production and modification of carbon nanotubes
(CNTs) will be reviewed. The challenges of PECVD methods to grow CNTs include low temperature synthesis, ion bombardment effects
and directional growth of CNT within the plasma sheath. New strategies have been developed for low temperature synthesis of
single-walled CNTs based the understanding of plasma chemistry and modelling. The modification of CNT surface properties and
synthesis of CNT hybrid materials are possible with the utilization of plasma. 相似文献

Influence of electrodeposition techniques on Ni nanostructures 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Different Ni nanostructure arrays were fabricated by pulsed electrodeposition from a Watts bath inside the pores of anodic alumina membrane (AAM) templates. Under a trapezoidal waveform of potential, consisting of fast linear sweeps between 0 and −3 V (SCE) interleaved by delay times at 0 (10 s) and −3 V (0.1 s), Ni nanowires were grown. The rate of nanowires growth was constant up to 60 min of deposition. For longer times, the growth of nanowires was not uniform, and after about 180 min some nanowires reached the template surface exposed to the electrolyte. Under square potential pulses between the same potentials (pulse length 1 s), nanotubes of Ni are obtained. Morphological analysis of these nanostructures at different lengths revealed that the inner profile of nanotubes evolved from cylindrical to conical with increasing deposition time. The possibility to grow either nanowires or nanotubes in dependence of the potential waveform, as well as the growth rate of nanostructures were discussed taking into account the reaction of hydrogen evolution, occurring simultaneously with Ni electrodeposition. 相似文献

ZnO nanowires with a periodic instability of diameter were successfully prepared by a thermal physical vapor deposition method.
The morphology of ZnO nanowires was investigated by SEM. SEM shows ZnO possess periodic bead-like structure. The instability
only appears when the diameter of ZnO nanowires is small. The kinetics and mechanism of Instability was discussed at length.
The appearance of the instability is due to negative feed-back mechanism under certain experimental conditions (crystallization
temperature, vapor supersaturation, etc). 相似文献

The kinetics of nanowhiskers growth is studied theoretically taking into account the adatom diffusion from the surface to
the top of needle. An exponential growth with time is expected for the initial stages of the process, when the length l of the whisker is smaller than the average diffusion length λ of adatoms. It transforms to linear growth rate for l > λ. The formation of nanotubes with a hollow core dislocation is explained by accounting for the role of the stress in the
middle of screw dislocations. When the magnitude of the Burgers vector exceeds a critical value, it is energetically more
favorable to remove the highly strained material around the dislocation line and to create a tube with an additional free
surface. Additionally, there is an important size effect, due to the small radius R of the nanowhisker. The interplay, between the contributions from the size effects and from the diffusion, explains why for
the very thin nanowhiskers the length l is proportional to the radius R while, otherwise the length is inversely proportional to it, i.e., l∼1/R. 相似文献

Controllable Synthesis of Magnesium Oxysulfate Nanowires with Different Morphologies 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
One-dimensional magnesium oxysulfate 5Mg(OH)2 · MgSO4 · 3H2O (abbreviated as 513MOS) with high aspect ratio has attracted much attention because of its distinctive properties from those
of the conventional bulk materials. 513MOS nanowires with different morphologies were formed by varying the mixing ways of
MgSO4 · 7H2O and NH4OH solutions at room temperature followed by hydrothermal treatment of the slurries at 150 °C for 12 h with or without EDTA.
513MOS nanowires with a length of 20–60 μm and a diameter of 60–300 nm were prepared in the case of double injection (adding
MgSO4 · 7H2O and NH4OH solutions simultaneously into water), compared with the 513MOS with a length of 20–30 μm and a diameter of 0.3–1.7 μm in
the case of the single injection (adding MgSO4 · 7H2O solution into NH4OH solution). The presence of minor amount of EDTA in the single injection method led to the formation of 513MOS nanowires
with a length of 100–200 μm, a diameter of 80–200 nm, and an aspect ratio of up to 1000. The analysis of the experimental
results indicated that the hydrothermal solutions with a lower supersaturation were favorable for the preferential growth
of 513MOS nanowires along b axis. 相似文献

Pd catalyst with dendritic morphology was synthesized on ordered and uniformly distributed titania nanotubes (TNT/Ti), and bare Ti by a simple electrochemical deposition process. The influence of support morphology was studied in relation to Pd deposition and its electro catalytic oxidation of formic acid. The structural property of Pd dendrites was characterized by scanning electron microscopy and X‐ray diffraction. The electrochemical study showed the activity and durability of Pd/TNT/Ti catalyst for formic acid oxidation was enhanced compared to Pd/Ti electro catalyst. The synergetic contribution from TNT/Ti as support for Pd and its enhanced catalytic activity is discussed. 相似文献

Large-scale β-Ga2O3 nanostructures (nanowires-NWs, nanobelts-NBs and nanosheets-NSs) were synthesized via thermal evaporation of GaN powder in an ambient argon atmosphere. The effect of the substrate type (Si, AlN-thin film/Si and ZnO-thin film/Si) on the growth of β-Ga2O3 nanostructures was investigated. The morphology changes from NWs to NBs or NSs when the substrate changes from Si to AlN-thin film/Si or ZnO-thin film/Si, respectively. The size and dimensionality were the most influential parameters on the structure of the as-grown β-Ga2O3. The as-grown nanostructures crystallize within the monoclinic crystal structure of the β-Ga2O3 phase. The obtained nanostructures show intense blue-red emission characterized by a broadband photoluminescence spectrum with peaks located at 430, 500–525 and 688–700 nm. These emissions originate from the defect-related donor-acceptor pair recombination mechanism and depend on the nanostructure dimensionality and morphology. A vapor-solid growth mechanism for the growth of various β-Ga2O3 nanostructures was also proposed. 相似文献

Silicon carbide nanowires have been synthesized at 1400 °C by carbothermic reduction of silica with bamboo carbon under normal
atmosphere pressure without metallic catalyst. X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, energy-dispersive spectroscopy,
transmission electron microscopy and Fourier transformed infrared spectroscopy were used to characterize the silicon carbide
nanowires. The results show that the silicon carbide nanowires have a core–shell structure and grow along <111> direction.
The diameter of silicon carbide nanowires is about 50–200 nm and the length from tens to hundreds of micrometers. The vapor–solid
mechanism is proposed to elucidate the growth process. The photoluminescence of the synthesized silicon carbide nanowires
shows significant blueshifts, which is resulted from the existence of oxygen defects in amorphous layer and the special rough
core–shell interface. 相似文献

nanowires have an average diameter of 200 nm and lengths ≥5 μm and were grown on Si(111) coated with a few nm’s of Au. Nitridation
of Sn alone, under a flow of NH3 is not effective and leads to the deposition of Sn droplets on the Au/Si(111) surface which impedes one-dimensional growth
over a wide temperature range i.e. 300–800 °C. This was overcome by the addition of ammonium chloride (NH4Cl) which undergoes sublimation at 338 °C thereby releasing NH3 and HCl which act as dispersants thereby enhancing the vapour pressure of Sn and the one-dimensional growth of Sn

Sea urchin-like nanostructures of ZnO consisting of ZnO nanowires with blunt faceted ends were grown on Si (100) substrates by oxidation of metallic Zn at 600 °C. ZnO nanowires having a diameter of 30–60 nm and length of 2–4 Μm were in similar shape with uniform diameter along its entire length with well faceted blunt ends. X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscope analysis showed that the as-grown nanostructures were highly crystalline with wurtzite hexagonal structure having lattice constants of a=b=3.25 å and c=5.21 å. Room temperature photoluminescence (PL) measurements showed a weak near band-edge emission at 380 nm, but a strong green emission at 500–530 nm. A model for vapor-solid (VS) growth mechanism of ZnO nanowires was presented, in which nucleation of ZnO is crucial for the growth of the nanostructures. 相似文献

ZnO nanowire nucleation mechanism and initial stages of nanowire growth using the carbothermal reduction technique are studied
confirming the involvement of the catalyst at the tip in the growth process. Role of the Au catalyst is further confirmed
when the tapering observed in the nanowires can be explained by the change in the shape of the catalyst causing a variation
of the contact area at the liquid–solid interface of the nanowires. The rate of decrease in nanowire diameter with length
on the average is found to be 0.36 nm/s and this rate is larger near the base. Variation in the ZnO nanowire diameter with
length is further explained on the basis of the rate at which Zn atoms are supplied as well as the droplet stability at the
high flow rates and temperature. Further, saw-tooth faceting is noticed in tapered nanowires, and the formation is analyzed
crystallographically. 相似文献

The II–V group semiconductors, with narrow band gaps, are important materials with many applications in infrared detectors,
lasers, solar cells, ultrasonic multipliers, and Hall generators. Since the first report on trumpet-like Zn3P2 nanowires, one-dimensional (1-D) nanostructures of II–V group semiconductors have attracted great research attention recently
because these special 1-D nanostructures may find applications in fabricating new electronic and optoelectronic nanoscale
devices. This article covers the 1-D II–V semiconducting nanostructures that have been synthesized till now, focusing on nanotubes,
nanowires, nanobelts, and special nanostructures like heterostructured nanowires. Novel electronic and optoelectronic devices
built on 1-D II–V semiconducting nanostructures will also be discussed, which include metal–insulator-semiconductor field-effect
transistors, metal-semiconductor field-effect transistors, and p–n heterojunction photodiode. We intent to provide the readers a brief account of these exciting research activities. 相似文献
