The as-synthesized t-NdVO_4 nanoparticles were characterized by various techniques of X-ray diffraction(XRD). scanning electron microscope(SEM) and transmission electron microscope(TEM). The growth process and assembly behavior of t-NdVO_4 nanorod arrays were investigated. The results show that the morphology of t-NdV04 nanocrystals is greatly related to the pH value of precursor solution and that strong basic solution is not in favor of the formation of t-NdVO_4 nanoparticles. Due to the strong adhesive action and stabilization of OH^-ions to some crystal faces of NdVO_4, neodymium vanadate crystallite grows into oriented short nanorods and then into nanorod arrays. The shape, crystalline and dimension of NdVO_4 nanocrystals can be effectively governed in our work.展开更多
