Abstract

Template-based growth of single crystal V₂O₅ nanorods by either electrochemical or electrophoretic deposition was studied. Specifically, standard electrochemical deposition from VOSO₄ solution, electrochemically induced deposition by local pH change of VO₂⁺ solution, and electrophoretic deposition of nanoclusters in V₂O₅ sol were investigated. From each route, uniformly sized V₂O₅ nanorods about 10 μm in length were grown over large area with nearly unidirectional alignment, but with various extent of lateral shrinkage when fired at 500°C. These grown V₂O₅ nanorods all have the same single-crystal structure, regardless of deposition method and initial solutions or sol used.
