Using the hydrothermal method, rod-like lanthanum oxychloride nanoparticles were synthesized by the reaction of LaCl 3 .7H 2 O, ethylenediamine, and hydrazine. Ethylenediamine and hydrazine with pH management can control the particle growth and have an important role in the formation of rod-like structures. The morphology and microstructure of the obtained products were characterized by X-ray diffraction, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, fourier transformed infrared spectrum, and transmission electron microscopy The formation mechanism of the LaOCl nanostructures was also proposed.

Hexagonal phase Sm(OH) 3 nanoroll sticks were first synthesized by hydrothermal method, and cubic phase Sm 2 O 3 nanoroll sticks were obtained by post-annealing treatment at 450°C. The growth of Sm 2 O 3 nanoroll sticks was found to be [40-4] direction. Their characteristics were examined by scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction crystallography, Raman, FT-IR, UV-Vis-NIR absorption, and temperatureprogrammed reduction experiment.

“…Gd(OH) 3 has been synthesized under basic conditions by a facile solution-based method such as hydrothermal and precipitation method [6,7]. Nanorod morphology of Gd(OH) 3 has most commonly been obtained by solution methods [3,[7][8][9][10][11][12][13]. The preferential growth direction of the rod was reported to be in the 〈001〉 direction [8].…”
