Abstract This review (with 129 refs.) gives an overview on how the integration of silica
nanowires (NWs) into micro-scale devices has resulted, in recent years, in simple yet robust …

Silicon oxide (SiOx) shows great potential for lithium ion battery (LIB) anodes due to its high
capacity, environmental friendliness, low cost and high abundance. Herein, we used low …

The microscopic wetting of water on amorphous silica surfaces has been investigated by
molecular dynamics simulation. Different degrees of surface hydroxylation/silanization were …

In this single work to cover the use of plasma as nanofabrication tool in sufficient depth
internationally renowned authors with much experience in this important method of …

The microemulsions with ionic liquid (IL) as continuous phase were used to fabricate silica
microrods. It was demonstrated that porous silica microrods with nano-sized pores could be …

A simple method based on the thermal oxidation of Si wafers in presence of a mixture of
MgO and graphite powder was developed for large-scale synthesis of very long amorphous …

Three broad cathodoluminescence bands centred at∼ 2.02 eV (red),∼ 2.78 eV (blue),
and∼ 3.45 eV (ultraviolet) have been observed from silica nanowires synthesized by …

The purpose of this paper was to produce SiO2 and TiO2 nanowires via the electrospinning
process from a polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP)/Tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS)/Titanium (IV) …

A novel and facile approach, named iron-assisted vapor-phase hydrothermal method, is
proposed to fabricate the long and stable bright blue light emitting SiO x nanowires …

Aligned straight silica nanowires (NWs) have been synthesized on Si wafer by thermal
evaporation of mixed powders of zinc carbonate hydroxide and graphite at 1100° C and …
