Fabrication of Indium-Tin Alloy and Oxide Nanowires Using Extrusion Molding Process in the Air

Article Preview

Abstract:

A simple method to indium tin alloy and oxide nanowires were achieved by using the extrusion molding process in the air. Eutectic indium tin bulk were firstly injected into AAO templates. After dissolving AAO, the indium tin nanowires were collected in ethanol. Furthermore, in order to have oxide nanowires, alloy nanowires were directly oxidized by heat treatment in the air below its melting point for 24 hours. Finally, crystalline indium-tin oxide and indium oxide nanowires with diameters 90-110 nm and lengths 2-20 μm were obtained.
