摘要
In this report we review the growth of indium oxide (In2O3) nanostructures, including octahedral nanocrystals (NCs), nanobelts (NBs), nanosheets (NSs), and nanowires (NWs), by hot-wall chemical vapor deposition (HW-CVD). This system is highly controllable, allowing the user to easily access different growth regimes - each corresponding to the growth of a different nanostructure - by changing growth variables of the HW-CVD system. Hot-wall CVD produces crystalline nanostructures; here we present a survey of microstructural characterizations of the four types of In2O3 nanostructures using transmission- and scanning-electron microscopy. Interestingly, the In2O3 nanostructures have different preferred growth directions: NCs have (111) faces, NBs are predominantly (200), and NWs are predominantly (110). We end the review by discussing the current shortcomings of HW-CVD growth of In2O3 nanostructures.
