Indium oxide elongated micro- and nanostructures have been grown by thermal treatment of InN powder. Chains of nanopyramids connected by nanowires, forming a necklace-like structure, as well as cubes and arrow-like structures consisting of a long rod with a micron size pyramid on the top, grow at temperatures in the range 600–700°C in a catalyst free process. The structures have been characterized by scanning electron microscopy and cathodoluminescence.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
