Selective Synthesis of Fe₂O₃ and Fe₃O₄ Nanowires Via a Single Precursor: A General Method for Metal Oxide Nanowires

Hematite (α-Fe₂O₃) and magnetite (Fe₃O₄) nanowires with the diameter of about 100 nm and the length of tens of micrometers have been selectively synthesized by a microemulsion-based method in combination of the calcinations under different atmosphere. The effects of the precursors, annealing tempera...

Zusammenfassung:Hematite (α-Fe₂O₃) and magnetite (Fe₃O₄) nanowires with the diameter of about 100 nm and the length of tens of micrometers have been selectively synthesized by a microemulsion-based method in combination of the calcinations under different atmosphere. The effects of the precursors, annealing temperature, and atmosphere on the morphology and the structure of the products have been investigated. Moreover, Co₃O₄ nanowires have been fabricated to confirm the versatility of the method for metal oxide nanowires.
