Abstract: | Ultralong single-crystalline TiO(2) nanowires were prepared by a simple, low-cost solvothermal process. Silver nitrate, neodymium chloride, ceric nitrate, stannic chloride hydrate, and cadmium chloride were used as metal sources and deposited by reduction on the surface of TiO(2) nanowires. The composites were subsequently characterized by transmission electron microscopy, and their coverage was compared. The nature of the coatings on the TiO(2) nanowires varies from metal to metal. A novel approach on modified one-dimensional nanostructures with metal coating was developed, which has great potential applications in catalysts, sensors, and nanoscale devices. |
