Solvothermal Growth of Cobalt Oxide Hexagon Nanodiscs

Article Preview

Abstract:

In this work, cobalt oxide nanodiscs were successfully fabricated through a simple solvothermal synthesis method. The obtained cobalt hydroxide nanodiscs are of single-crystalline hexagonal structure with well-defed nanodiscs were found to have very weak magnetic properties, much weaker than its bulk cobalt oxide counterparts, which might find interesting application in special electromagnetism devices.
