Abstract :
Branching structures in nanometer level are of great importance in developing nanoscale science and functional electrical devices. In this letter, multidimensional magnesium oxide structures with cone-shaped branching have been mass-produced using a simple chemical vapor deposition method. The dominant structures in the product include two-dimensional ‘+’, ‘T’, or ‘Γ’ assemblies, and three-dimensional complex configurations. The results presented here enrich the nanoscale community with new basic materials for the fabrication of functional electrical and chemical sensing devices.
