Synthesis of Gallium Nitride Nanorods Through a Carbon Nanotube-Confined Reaction

Han, Weiqiang, Fan, Shoushan, Li, Qunqing, Hu, Yongdan·1997·Science

Abstract

Gallium nitride nanorods were prepared through a carbon nanotube–confined reaction. Ga 2 O vapor was reacted with NH 3 gas in the presence of carbon nanotubes to form wurtzite gallium nitride nanorods. The nanorods have a diameter of 4 to 50 nanometers and a length of up to 25 micrometers. It is proposed that the carbon nanotube acts as a template to confine the reaction, which results in the gallium nitride nanorods having a diameter similar to that of the original nanotubes. The results suggest that it might be possible to synthesize other nitride nanorods through similar carbon nanotube–confined reactions.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
