Abstract

Nanorods of several oxides, with diameters in the range of 10-200 nm and lengths upto a few microns, have been prepared by templating against carbon nanotubes. The oxides include V 2 O 5 , WO 3 , MoO 3 and Sb 2 O 5 as well as metallic MoO 2 , RuO 2 and IrO 2 . The nanorods tend to be single-crystalline structures. Nanotube structures have also been obtained in MoO 3 and RuO 2 .
