摘要：
A tiny bundle of joy: Ta3N5 nanowire bundles (NWBs) were synthesized using a molten salt reaction followed by nitridation. The bundles consisted of single crystalline Ta3N5 nanowires which aligned along the same crystallographic growth direction. O2 evolution and photoelectrochemical measurements demonstrate the potential of Ta3N5 NWBs as a visible-light-responsive photoanode. Copyright © 2013 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim.
