Sublimation growth and vibrational microspectrometry of α-MoO3 single crystals

Electronic structure of β-RbNd(MoO4)2 by XPS and XES

“…It is well known that MoO 3 is relatively volatile at high temperatures and, consequently, a partial loss of this component during long time synthesis may induce deviation from the stoichiometry of synthesized compounds [25,26]. To minimize this effect, the multistage method with a step-by-step temperature increase is optimal for complex molybdates synthesis [27][28][29].…”

Growth and physical properties of large MoO3 single crystals

“…So evaporated MoO 3 molecules go to the lower temperature zone, upper location. Microstructure of orthorhombic MoO 3 nanobelt or single crystal is flake shape [12,23], and sublimated MoO 3 single crystal form similar shape with microstructure. It would be due to nature of layered structure.…”

“…Therefore, conventional single crystal growth, which involves growing single crystals from melted substances through methods such as the vertical Bridgman method and the Czochralski method, is limited by the inability to confine melted MoO 3 in space, like the inside of an ampoule. Thus, MoO 3 single crystals are generally grown through a procedure of sublimation and solidification [9][10][11][12][13][14]. These procedures result in the creation of elongated flakes with a small size (typically up to 20 9 2 mm 2 in lateral dimension and lm scale in thickness).…”

Aqueous Solution-Deposited Molybdenum Oxide Films as an Anode Interfacial Layer for Organic Solar Cells

“…Especially, the sublimation is widely used to deposite MoO 3 film, for example, atmosphere. 23 Development of alternative approaches involving low-cost and large area deposition of such films has attracted great attention. Polymer-assisted deposition (PAD) is an aqueous chemical solution method for thin film growth, which has earlier been successfully developed to prepare single element materials, 26 metal oxides, 27 and metal carbides films.…”
