摘要
Gallium nitride (GaN) nanowires were synthesized using the recently developed oxide-assisted method by laser ablating a target of GaN mixed with gallium oxide (Ga2O3). Transmission electron microscopic characterization showed that GaN nanowires were smooth and straight with a core-sheath structure of 80 nm in average diameter and tens of micrometers in length. Both hexagonal and cubic structured GaN nanowires were produced. The growth mechanism was discussed. (C) 2001 Published by Elsevier Science B.V.
