| Abstract: | ABSTRACT In this work, we report the production of MoSe2 (molybdenum diselenide) nanotubes formed by irradiating the samples with high doses of electron irradiation. The irradiation was performed on a 2?MeV Van de Graff accelerator at the following conditions: voltage 1.3?MeV, current 5?µA current, dose rate 25?Kgy/min, and total dosage 1?Mgy. We observed well-defined nanotubes of several nm long and few nm wide, which suppose to be hollow and capped at one end. As the level of irradiation was increased to 1?Mgy, elongated onion-like structures were observed. |
