The growth of amorphous silica nanowires by on-site feeding of silicon and oxygen is reported. The nanowires were grown on a nickel-coated oxidized silicon substrate without external silicon or oxygen sources. Transmission electron microscopy observation revealed that the nanowires, which have diameters of less than 50 nm and a length of several micrometers, were grown using a traditional vapor-liquid-solid mechanism. Blue photoluminescence was observed from these nanowires at room temperature. An approach to grow nanowires without external precursors may be useful when integrating nanowires into devices structures. This can benefit the fabrication of nanowire-based nanodevices.

본 연구에서는 산소 함유량이 다른 산화 실리콘 막을 사용하여 실리카 나노 와이어를 형성하고, 실리카 나노 와이어의 미세구조 및 물리적 특성을 Si 웨이퍼를 사용하여 형성된 실리카 나노 와이어와 비교 분석하였다. 산화 실리콘 막은 플라즈마 화학 기상 증착 방법을 사용하여 제조하였으며, 실리카 나노 와이어는 산화 실리콘 막 표면에 촉매 물질로 니켈 막을 진공 증착한 후 열처리를 통해 형성하였다. 산소 함유량이 약 50 at.% 이하의 산화 실리콘 막의 경우 나노 와이어 형성 메커니즘, 미세구조 및 물리적 특성 등에서 실리콘 웨이퍼의 경우와 거의 차이점이 없었으며, 특히 나노 와이어의 굵기의 균일성은 산화 실리콘 막에서 더 우수한 거동을 나타내었다. 이러한 결과는 저가로 양질의 실리카 나노 와이어를 제조하는 대체재로서 산화 실리콘 막의 유용성을 제시한다.

We synthesized silicon carbide (${\beta}-SiC$) nanowires with nano-scale diameter (30 - 400 nm) and micro-scale length ($50-200{\mu}m$) on a porous body using low-grade silica and carbon black powder by carbothermal reduction at $1300-1600^{\circ}C$. The SiC nanowires were formed by vapor-liquid-solid deposition with self-evaporated Fe catalysts in low-grade silica. We investigated the characteristics of the SiC nanowires, which were grown on a porous body with Ar flowing in a vacuum furnace. Their structural, optical, and electrical properties were analyzed with X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and selective area electron diffraction (SAED). We obtained high-quality SiC single crystalline nanowire without stacking faults that may have uses in industrial applications.

Polypyrrole (Ppy) nanowire has been electrochemically synthesized via vertically oriented mesoporous silica template. The mesoporous template is also electrochemically deposited on indium tin oxide coated (ITO) glass from tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) and cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) surfactant. The highly ordered silica template is demonstrated to be 100~120nm thick with the pores of 4~5 nm diameter by scanning electron microscope (SEM) and transmission electron microscope (TEM). Ppy is formed to fill pores of the silica template from pyrrole solution by electrochemical oxidation. The Ppy in Ppy/silica/ITO composite was found to exhibit reversible electrochemical activity, as characterized by cyclic voltammetry (CV).

Nanostructures, with a diversity of shapes, built on substrates have been developed within many research areas. Lithography is one powerful, but complex, technique to make structures at the nanometer scale, such as platinum nanowires for studying CO catalytic reactions [1], or aluminum nanodisks for studying the plasmon effect [2]. In this work, we approach a facile method to construct nanostructures using noble metals on a titania thin film by using self-assembled structures as a pattern. Here, a large-scale silica monolayer is transferred to the titania thin film substrates using a Langmuir-Blodgett trough, followed by the deposition of a thin transition metal layer. Owing to the hexagonal close-packed structure of the silica monolayer, we would obtain a metal nanostructure that includes separated metallic triangles (islands) after removing the patterning silica beads. This nanostructure can be employed to investigate the role of metal-oxide interfaces in CO catalytic reactions by changing the patterning silica particles with different sizes or by replacing the oxide support. The morphology and chemical composition of the structure can be characterized by scanning electron microscopy, atomic force microscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. In addition, we modify these islands to a connected island structure by reducing the silica size of the patterning monolayer, which is utilized to generating hot electron flow based on the localized surface plasmon resonance effect of the metal nanostructures.

Silica nanostructures have been attached considerable attention because of theirs potential application in mesoscopic research and the potential use of large surface area structure of catalysts. SiO2 nannowire and nanorods was synthesized various methods including thermal evaporation, chemical vapor deposition (CVD), and laser ablation methods. In this experiments, SiO2 nanowire were grown using thermal evaporation method followed by VS (Vapor-Solid) growth mechanisms. Grown SiO2 nanowires were amorphous phases because of its low growth temperatures. Grown nanowires diameters were about 20-40nm at all growth conditions, but its microstructres were different by that used substrate because of it's oxygen contents.
