The NCs were ellipsoidal particles with a diameter around 6.6 nm and length around 10 nm with a good single crystal structure. Using CoPt3 NCs as catalysts, large-area boron nanowires with diameters ranging from 30 to 50 nm were successfully prepared by chemical vapor deposition using a C/B/B203 mixture as the precursor. Structural analysis indicated that these nanowires were single crystalline with a fl-rhombohedral structure. Measurement of the field emission properties of boron nanowire films showed that the boron nanowires have good field emission characteristics.展开更多
