This paper describes a solution-based method for the large-scale synthesis of selenium
nanowires. Sonication was used as the driving force for both nucleation and dispersion. The
trigonal Se seeds were formed during sonication and grew over the course of hours at the
expense of the amorphous Se colloids in a process similar to Ostwald ripening. The resultant
nanowires were typically single crystals of trigonal Se whose morphologies could be tuned
by adjusting the reaction conditions. A variety of solvents are demonstrated for use with
this process. We also demonstrate patterned growth of these nanowires on substrates to
form extensive 2D networks and isolated clusters. The morphologies of the products were
examined with a combination of microscopic and spectroscopic techniques.
VSS for patients with IIH with venous sinus stenosis is now an established and effective treatment option. These recommendations have been provided, based on a summative review of the available published literature, to assist in standardizing care for patients with IIH undergoing VSS.
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.
