Ebook: 1-dimensional metal oxide nanostructures: growth, properties, and devices

"This book covers recent developments in synthesis and growth process of 1-D metal oxide nanosturctures with a focus on semi-templated method of oxidation origin. Thermal and anodic oxidation processes are reviewed with an aim to offer an in-depth understanding of mechanisms of 1-D nanostructure formation and their characteristics by these processes. Other more common methods are also discussed including sol-gel, hydrothermal, and other templated methods. Important applications of 1-D nanostructures are then presented focusing on oxides like zinc oxide, titanium oxide, zirconium oxide, niobium oxide, copper oxide, iron oxide, and tungsten trioxide"--  Read more...
