摘要
By controlling the heating temperature of a mixture of In and Ge powders, we have obtained monoclinic In2Ge2O7 nanowires at 600-700 degrees C, whereas we have produced cubic In2O3 nanowires at 900 degrees C. The In2Ge2O7 nanowires grown at 600 degrees C were terminated by Au-containing nanoparticles, giving evidence that the vapour-liquid-solid model is the major growth mechanism. With the growth process at 700-900 degrees C being dominated by a vapour-solid process, we have discussed the temperature-induced change in growth mechanisms. Photoluminescence measurements at 10-300K revealed a broad visible emission centred at around 2.5 eV.
