The syntrhesis and charaacterization of one-dimensional nanostructures


EMSL Project ID
3229

Abstract

We have synthesized and characterized several one-dimensional novel nanostrucutures at the collaboration with PNNL staffs(Chongming Wang,Jim Young..)by using CVD technique, and these results were published on Nanoletters(one is highlight in Science and another one featured on the cover of nanoletters), which bring a lot of attentions from the nanoscience and nanotechnology community, the very recent result on the helical nanostructure of SiO2(in preparation) will be another high impact work. We plan to use plasma, e-beam and sputtering techniques to increase the quantities of the products and make use of them into the nanoelectronics and nanomechanics as well as the reinforced materials. The use of the nanomaterials and nanoscience facilities will benefit the progress of the project which is supported by LDRD of PNNL and Natural Science Foundation.
